And finished. No shading since I didn't want to spend too long on it and I did managed to think of something for my next project.
As much as I love Anya and Es I really don't draw them enough. If I ever lack inspiration again I'll try and draw these two
I wanted to get this started yesterday but I'm in a weird kind of burnout. I WANT to draw stuff and have the motivation to do so. I just can't think of any ideas.
At the very least I'll finish this "warmup" by monday and see if inspiration hits me by then.
Textless alts + a bonus combined pic. Thought I should add something extra since I delayed the pic a little
That's Riela and Selvaria finally done. Jeez this took a long time but I wanted it to be the best it could be. I even redid Selvaria's head entirely.
I wish I had the time to replay Valkyria chronicles 3. I'll just have to draw these two again in the future to make up for it.
Wanted to finish this tonight but I don't think I can without staying up way too late and making mistakes.
I'll get it done ASAP tomorrow
And the aforementioned Selvaria WIP. There's some parts I might adjust but it's all set
I don't know why but it's always the simple pinups I struggle to draw the most.
Anyway here's a new WIP of Riela. Her and Selvaria (who I'm also doing) were one of the first few characters I ever painted and I was in the mood to remake that pic.
Textless
I should watch Geass R4 someday since I'm playing through it in Lost Stories. I do love me some evil pink-hair women.
I'm experimenting with BGs and text lately since my art is in a good spot but I'm not confident with them. Next pic will be something "normal" with another pink (kinda) haired gal.
Might be some delays on this pic due to personal reasons but it's coming along well. Expect it by Tuesday or Wednesday
Didn't have anything specific I wanted to draw this week so I decided to do a quick Reina pinup based on the recent Beatbreak ep.
It was either this or something with her and Granit and I couldn't think of a good pose for them.
Had this idea in the back of my mind since watching Irregular season 2 and Valentines seemed like the perfect chance to draw it.
Man it took a while though. Even giving it a week in advance I still didn't get it finished until now. There's a lot I'd change if I had the time
Haven't had time to read much of it but I'm a big fan of the new characters added to Code Geass: Lost stories like Bell here. Pretty good game.
For those wondering about the Rikka set. Reception wasnt great despite how proud of it I was and I kinda grew to hate the set entirely so I deleted it.
NEW COMMISSION SHEET.
If you want a commission or just have any questions. Feel free to send a message here or through Discord (naransolongo_boldbayer).
One more Limbus pic before it's back to the usual. These kids deserve a little ice cream after finishing the new canto.
Can't promise I'll be back at my normal pace (and to think I was trying to speed up a little by new years) but I've got a couple ideas lined up.
And that's the Don set. Even after my initial depression spell passed I haven't been feeling that good about my art this year compared to last.
I'll still keep drawing but I need to figure out how to improve rather than hope I'll be better "one day" if I just keep drawing.
More Limbus art since PM's dropping the heavy hitters early into this chapter. Might draw a follow up if I get her tonight.
This one turned out okay but I'm still not happy with how art has been this year. Might keep my drawings simple until I get my confidence back
Not too happy with this sketch but I had to draw the new Limbus mommy at some point.
I might finish it but I don't want to waste too much time on a bad pic. I was already aiming to finish this sketch by yesterday
Feels like a lot longer than 2 years but this is also a milestone pic.
Quick comparison to my first pic ever (which took a whole month to make btw) and the 1st anniversary milestone
I missed New Years itself but I managed to finished Anya and Es before the end of the day. The background took ages to do but the wings came out great.
I've not improved as much as I wanted to this year but I'm gonna keep trying. Art is one of the few good things in my life that's managed to stick.
Working on a new years pic but I'm not sure if it'll get done in time.
It might've been a bit much even if I was at my best but I'm committed now
Currently in a bit of an art funk so I haven't been doing anything big. Couldn't even finish this before Christmas.
I'm gonna try and get something done for new years but the confidence isn't there.
No text/effects
Had to rush the Backgrounds but it's finally completed.
I wish the 3rd/4th pics were better but I don't really know how I'd fix them and it already took way too long.
Time for some 18 and smol. This is gonna be a set but I'm doing it a little differently so consider this a preview of sorts.
It'll probably take longer than my last full set but I'm hoping it'll look better too
This was originally just a practice sketch for my next set but I wanted to try and finish it "quickly".
I think I just have to accept I'm never gonna be drawing at a normal pace even after this much practice
Wasn't feeling much art but I got in the mood for Lucoa and Shouta. I had planned to add a background and a short scenario text but I was already rushing just to finish it today.
Funny enough I actually prefer Ilulu so it's weird I didn't draw her first
I wanted to do more with this but I wasn't really feeling it and I doubt I'd finish it anyway.
Gonna try and get another sketch done today to make up for it.
Separate pics
Anya/Es pic No.9: Celebration
That's the set finished. I wanted to get this done yesterday but a lot of bad things happened last week, most notably fucking up my arm (thankfully not my drawing arm).
I'm hoping this whole practice was worth it.
