Quick and very messy sketch of Arthur Nightingale from Warframe 1999.

A wild Arthur Nightingale portrait WIP appears.

Yes. Warframe has stolen my whole brain.

Working in Krita. Will have a timelapse when it's done.

Can be about my Daz Studio work or my digital drawing/painting!

Did a little work on the Constantine piece today. Still have quite a bit left to do, but it's coming together! Working in Rebelle 5. Still recording the timelapse, so part 2 of that video will be coming out after I finish the painting.

A bit of progress. Think I'll stop here for the day.

Starting the color glazing process on the John Constantine portrait today. Still working in Rebelle 5. I haven't used this underpainting/glazing technique before so we'll see how this turns out!

I am, in fact, arting today. Here's our favorite disaster magician, John Constantine.

WIP; finished up the underpainting. He's too far over to the left though; gonna need to scoot him over before adding color.

I've been capturing the timelapse, so when it's done I'll share that!

Snow day!

A little progress on Molly.
January 2, 2025 at 6:06 PM
Playing with the values, still not where I want it but getting there. Definitely still half in scribble mode here, needs a lot of work.

You're a mean one, Mister Grinch (WIP)

Brainstorming over the first test render. Still very, very much a work in progress.

My damn computer has been acting like a slow-lumbering dinosaur since the tornado hit us. Getting this scene together has been a battle in and of itself.
December 23, 2024 at 8:20 PM
Some progress on Molly. Still not sure about the glowy magic I painted, but I'll leave it for now. Going to do some paintover on Molly herself next.

Coat and mantle simulated and edited in Blender. Also did some wrinkle sculpts to the pants and shirt, but the shirt morphs didn't import into Daz for some reason. I may need a different shirt; I had trouble with this one before. Still very very much a WIP.

Procrastination defeated.

Cookies achieved! (Well, one batch is still cooking, but yeah)
December 21, 2024 at 9:46 PM
YES. Simulation complete!

I'm going to simulate the mantle on top of it, then after lunch take it all into Blender to smooth it out a bit and correct pokethrough.

Will probably need a little bit of work in Blender but it's actually not super wonky. FINALLY. This damn simulation has been the bane of my existence. Still waiting for it to finish though, fingers crossed.

This is what clothing simulation often looks like in Daz Studio: weird poses positioned along a timeline to get the cloth to drape and move how I want it. Wait for several minutes while it simulates. Make small corrections to the timeline, simulate again. Rinse, repeat.

The landlady's cow had a baby.
December 17, 2024 at 3:08 PM
The one thing that absolutely wrecks me about the tornado hitting us in July is that I had to permanently re-home this precious baby. We couldn't find anyone willing to foster her for an indeterminate period of time while we didn't know where we were going to even live.

Down to one of these. Going to let it rest for a bit and then decide. Kinda leaning towards the second one but not sure.
December 14, 2024 at 10:24 PM
Another layout option. Still playing around with different options. I'm leaning towards either the second one I posted, or this one.
December 14, 2024 at 9:16 PM
Second layout idea. I'm leaning towards this one. Harry's coat is hidden temporarily while I refine the poses.
December 14, 2024 at 7:01 PM
WIP. Still in the early blocking-in stages, setting up poses and composition/layout for now. I always start rough and refine as I go along. I'll be adding background elements (still deciding on them), refining poses, using Daz's dForce physics engine to simulate clothing and hair movement, etc.
