Sketch Dump, Pre-PAX Edition

Sketch Dump, Pre-PAX Edition published on No Comments on Sketch Dump, Pre-PAX Edition

Well, the fated time is upon us at last, PAX East 2017! It’s actually been kind of a crazy time recently. People actually liking my artwork and asking for more of it, digging a deeper foothold into the Twitch community, Slayers week, signing off for a bigger apartment after years of living in what amounts to a terrarium… Making some changes, but as you can see, there are a lot of good ones in there. Unfortunately due to time and energy constraints, I’m *way* behind on the intended next draft of Irrgarten, but I have a solid direction I want to take it in and will probably hit it harder after I return and the pressure is off a bit. I’m just going to focus on enjoying myself and hanging out with some amazingly cool people for the long weekend. (It’ll suck just a bit coming back into town late then turning right back around to work at 5AM the next day, but it’ll be worth it.)

So to recap, there was a little fan event going on over at Tumblr where people would submit fanart/fiction/other along a set of themes that I rather liked because they weren’t the usual “look how cute these two are together” material that fandoms seem to be all about these days (“wouldn’t Attack on Titan be amazing if it were less about attacking titans and more about the boys kissing each other and sitting in coffee shops with nice scarves?”) I was happy to participate and managed to turn in a solid week of color works without getting lazy! (Although I did submit one drawing too early and another I postponed because the sketch was looking wonky.)

So here’s all of them in one handy post since I got more than a few Slayers fans among my followers~

Happy 3/2 Day!

Slayers Week continues with days 3, 4, and 5- Day 3 was just about Filia, so I decided to at least try for an action pose since I imagined most other participants would be drawing her being floaty and pretty and generally non…actiony. The next day was more open, with a theme of Spells. I decided to go with Raywing since it always seemed like a particularly useful one in the series- not only is it good for high speed flight, it also allows the user to go underwater in a bubble of air that can be expanded large enough to carry others AND offer a degree of protection with its wind barrier. Finally, Day 5 went back to a character focused day for Gourry, so I went with a sword stance that looks more like he’s about to swing a ball bat. Whoop.

Friday Night’s Alright for Catch-Up

Been on a bit of a kick of trying to tweak and refine my Ether character design. Busy week, really. I did a set of emotes for Toad on Twitch and working at tiny resolutions has got me kind of fired up to try pixel art again. I also may have some drawing assets for a friend’s video project soon. It’s felt pretty good to have people interested in my stuff. I hope to do a little overhaul of the site soon to push my illo/commission info a bit harder as I’d like to get some side cash flow going this year. On that note, I do have a Redbubble store now as well, though the selection’s a bit limited as I look for pieces I’d like to upload or polish to make uploadable.
