becoming a BIG fan of this square inker brush from max's essential pack... the no-pressure size/full opacity is such a fun way to encourage my confidence in my lines.

having a cutie patootie im excited to play & draw meant i was more willing to draw quick, "less finished" pieces more often, because i wanted to draw her!

drawing more frequently & quicker has been a welcomed growth in this campaign art journey

in addition, ive also been trying to draw more "grounded" fantasy armor/outfits? becoming infatuated with renn faire garb has led to me wanting to understand armor more. this is my eladrin fighter. i still don't have a great handle on textures but hopefully my volume/weight carries the idea!

tried to do some more learning with a 2-character expressive piece (focusing on maintaining character identity & faithful body type depictions)

felt good about atem's expression. i also didn't use much reference. was more of a spontaneous sketch and i didn't want to lose momentum searching for ref

been doing some major campaign art for the first time. it's been a great opportunity to experiment and branch out of my norm! first up: the big baddie (in more ways than one) of the campaign. an archfey of love named Atem !

i hardly draw hyper-feminine figures, so this was a treat to learn on

some other bales. 1st one is about 24yds? 2nd one is 18yds

landed 6 arrows out of 8 in a 58yd bale! second photo is what the line looks like from the the target.

been having incredible sessions at 15yds. it felt good to shoot more consistently/accurately than some of the casual olympic recurve archers using rental equipment. the dude next to me definitely felt more self-conscious of his egregious misses being next to a traditional archer shooting well. 😂

finally hung up the pieces i got from @eyanin.bsky.social !!! i love it so much, thank you for making the ranger art into a print !!!

i drew a gloomstalker ranger i just started playing. her name is lake.

some more outdoor shooting! im still not achieving consistent back tension or full draw, so i really need to lock in on those.

for some reason, outdoors, i don't really snapshoot as much as i do indoors lol...
March 24, 2025 at 2:52 AM
shooting outdoors is hard lol. this isn't much further than the longest distance ive ever shot. im just glad all my arrows hit the target, though!
March 17, 2025 at 2:23 PM
after many days... i finally have some painted, fletched, wooden arrows!!! had some headaches with the plastic nocks... but i have a solution lined up. it ain't perfect, but i still had so much fun making these.

i really want to make more!!!
March 6, 2025 at 11:28 PM
i just realized these photos are from the same round, lol. woops! here's some other good rounds to prove my practice was productive 😅

it's been a while since ive had a session where i recorded more than one round!
February 21, 2025 at 2:37 AM
today i worked on slower tempo - i have a habit of snapshooting because i conditioned myself to shoot 10+ arrows in a round to get the most out of my 2hr sessions. of course, that is silly and often unproductive (unless i am training for speedshooting).

safe to say holding my full draw worked!
February 21, 2025 at 2:35 AM
anyways heres the arrow cresting i hope to accomplish. im going to dye the turkey feathers on my own with food coloring. i haven't seen very good examples online but i don't see why i can't accomplish a dip-dye. i'm going to stain my spruce shafts to be a bit darker and coat with satin PU

me holding all my hyper fixation energy inside bc i want to talk about archery videos & bows & arrows but hate browsing r*ddit

saw even *more* improvement this past weekend. obviously not fully proficient yet, but i'm somewhat stable and consistent enough that i am down to fixing my alignment to adjust my aim.

my alignment is now down to the placement of my bow hand, which i forget to put *above* my shoulder, per gao ying.
December 16, 2024 at 3:16 PM
more duck shots! some near-hits and two shots that popped it off the bale.
December 5, 2024 at 12:24 AM
combine that with a better "estimation" phase in my pre-draw, today was the first time i felt like i was aiming properly *and* my arrows went where i thought they should. here i shot two arrows. the first hit the duck. then i shot a second at the card. a narrow miss, which was good! i aimed alright!
