Cat Dragon Commish

Commission for a good friend of mine who has also been incredibly patient. I was asked to make a sphinx cat dragon. It was a really fun challenge. So many wrinkles <3 tons of fun to draw.

Just a Holy Fool

Commission for a friend of mine of our two characters from a 1890's western RP we do. Virgil is mine, and Ruth is hers. They don't have the most healthy of relationships. There's several things going on in there to symbolize that. From how well they're rendered, how polished they are, body language, facial expressions, state of dress.
 
Virgil belongs to me.

Yukon Living

Collab between myself and Rek. It’s the icon for a forum RP we do that takes place in the Yukon during the 1950’s with serial killers and murderous polar bears. Good times! She thought up and drew the original image, I cleaned up and colored it.

It's transparent! Click it! 

Air

Done for a Halloween trade on Facebook with friends. My prompt of choosing was Air, and so I did a piece reflecting all the things that remind me of it.

Mogget

Uncropped version of a little icon painting. It hurts too much not to have this somewhere, after all the work put into it. x_x

Sometimes I like to draw elves with terrible senses of justice.

Put your-

A tribute to Mother Monster that I’ve been wanting to do for far too long. I don’t know why I never knocked it out before. But a few years back, I might not have been able to get it to work. So maybe it was for the best to wait to do it now.

Pretty simple stuff. Classic good design colors, also heavily inspired by the Bad Romance music video, which is probably my favorite to this day. I wanted to draw the Mother as a real monster. :P Since I am a little monster who draws…monsters.

ILU Gaga. Keep being a badass and giving us all the inspiration to keep pushing for what we want in life.

Shame

A slightly belated birthday present for haikujaguar of her character Shame. This is the second time I've drawn him for this occasion, but what can I say, I like him. :P Plus with Black Blossom now being released, he's been more present on my reading list. He also helped me break out of my "how do I draw faces" drawing derp. It took a few tries though. And it seemed he'd only cooperate if he got to look right. I tried giving him a bit of a critical face, as if something not necessarily good just caught his attention.

For those of you unfamiliar with the Jaguar's writing, you should definitely give her stuff a read. I'm pretty partial to Ai-Naidari aliens myself, so I recommend reading both The Aphorisms of Kherishdar and The Admonishments of Kherishdar . Once you done that you can catch up to Black Blossom and then keep tabs on that one as it's released. Shame doesn't feature until Admonishments, but he's in Black Blossom as well. It's been interesting to see how the Calligrapher and Shame interact with each other. Every new piece of the story is a highlight of my day when I see it update.

Parkour

Second commission for a good friend of mine. Her character Ramla doing some parkour.

Referance used.

Dinner and a Movie

Locust, my cyberpunk character, eating ramen while surfing the internet, at the same time. Truly, this is why he spent so much of his time making said arms, and learning how to use them.
Just a quick, maybe even under an hour doodle.

Been on a cyberpunk kick, and I haven’t really drawn Locust at all, save what I had to to get his appearance down, and figure out his extra arms. No refs used, and it shows. I think you can tell where I started to lose my attention span on it as well. >.>

Everything's better with werewolves

Commission done for fellow WW RPer and friend Fran who's only prompt for this was "Anna and Lou hanging out." and the rest was left to me. Needless to say, when you have werewolves involved, something awesome must happen. So here we are, Lou getting the best piggie back ride ever. :P
please reblog if you like!
Anna Teeth-Gnasher (the big monstrous werewolf) is mine. Lou the kinfolk is Fran's.

Vice

Done from start to finish on Livestream. My tiefling, Vice. Just wanted to draw horn danglies, really. :B Good practice, learned a lot, played a lot and found some new ideas for the future.

Shiva WIP 2

quick lighting washes of color to keep things consistent. but here's the more or less final design. No more WIPs until it's done. :P

Emperor

Master copy of the famous Jacques-Louis David painting Napoleon Crossing the Alps. Completely hand painted in Ps. A friend was kind enough to let me borrow their face. The piece is for a Type and Image project where we had to lay out and design a magazine article. Mine was Ralph for Emperor by Ralph Wanger. The concept was that "Ralph" was super imposing himself upon a famous emperor, cutting his face out from a photo and roughly taping it over a print or what have you that he owned. So yes, the tape is intentional. :P

Waaaaaayyyy too many hours in Ps

cover

Thought I'd posted this. Huh. Well, here it is either way. The cover image for my game. It was hell to paint. x_x But I learned a lot.

Last two monsters

Last of my monsters for my survival horror game I'm making. Now on to faux screen shots and map refinement.

Monsters

Here's some preliminary attacks at monster concepts for my survival horror game Perdition.

fish heads

Small painting for a presentation tomorrow. It's a Payara, also (incorrectly called) the Vampire Tetra. Yes, their teeth really are that big. Go look them up! they're awesome.

Coal Mines

Second scene done for my game design class. PSD file looks better (as always). This time It's a coal mine. Tried to emphasize the very horizontal layout as well as how claustrophobic it is this time. Learned a lot on this one as well. Slowly getting better with these.

naked trees

My first time doing a landscape in photoshop! I watched a few tutorials, soaked in the info, and took a wack at it. And for my first go, I'm very pleased. The lighting's probably not perfect but I think it has the right mood to it, feeling nice and oppressive. This is a scene study for my game design class.

Dahlia

Final ref sheet for my main protagonist in my game. Her name is Dahlia.

The setting is in the 1840s during the height of the Oregon Trail usage. The wagon train she's a part of drives through a patch of land so full of angry dead that they manage to actually manifest, and try to kill everyone in the caravan. Dahlia's motivation is simply sheer survival. She has no child, no husband, nothing. Only her will to live keeps her going. 

More on her and the rest of the game as I create new pieces for it.
