ITS DONE! And just in time for Halloween week. It was so much fun coming up with Halloween costume designs for my OCs. This piece really stretched my ability to quickly render multiple characters while also designing a framing element. So much fun!

Just finished this illustration of my OC, Charlotte! This piece was primarily practice for my rendering skills. I feel like my art tends to be way too "flat", and I want to try using a more painterly process when creating art. The next step is to speed up 🙃

Digital painting of a young woman with long blonde hair tied back into a loose ponytail. She is wearing a beige blouse and a green pleated skirt. She is equipped with a leather chest harness which goes around each shoulder and fastens across her chest with a belt. The harness is connected to a series of belts around the character's midsection which feature a number of pouches. On the backside of the character is a leatherbound book with various colored bookmarks.

I've been struggling with some art block, and today has been kinda tough as far as drawing is concerned. Before going to bed I figured it would be a good idea to try and eke out some sketching just to help break through the block.

Did some doodling while watching the Undertale Anniversary. It was hard to focus on drawing when there were SO MANY CRAZY THINGS HAPPENING.

Happy with how this turned out. What I'm realizing is I need work on my composition and background skills instead of drawing only characters.

This right here is why Silksong should be GOTY. Whoever at Team Cherry thought about turning Hornet's cloak into a parachute knows what they're doing.

I really like how this has come together. Definitely feels more like Hornet.

Good morning! Today I'm bringing my OC, Charlotte, out of retirement. I'm really digging how this is coming together. Aiming to have lines/color done before end of the day.
