More super-made-up technology based around being helpfully shiny.
A person on my Deviantart asked if I’d break down some of the process on “Fires”, so, I did. I sure hope this posts alright though.
The captions give a quick look at the details in each step, although I should probably also state for the third image onward, everything is happening in Photoshop. The breakdown of the captions from that point on is basically “action, layer number, layer mode”, and the higher the layer number, the higher in the stack it is. The scanned drawing itself is the third layer, set to multiply.
Anyhow, I just hope it’s not confusing = =. I’m not very good at explaining stuff.
Lightbulbs with a charmingly faulty AI that causes them to swarm around people, plants, and animals at night.
What is my brain even doing.
For the first time in a very long time, I finished an art trade. This is Glaciesclover’s adorable fox-chan Ran admiring the AMPTS, from doodle-noodles to completion. The whole thing’s made out of Copic marker, Unison soft pastel, Prismacolor colored pencil, Watercolor pencil, and Photoshop.
DON’T step on the ampts.
It’s time again for new AnimeUSA arts : D
For the past handful of years I’ve done artwork for this awesome show’s flyers and program book cover. This year, In the spirit of our super fun theme, Cirque/carnival, I’m doing the flyers like those really fancy old-fashioned posters, advertising features of the convention as if they were sideshow attractions.
First up: Masquerade (cosplay)
It hurts me to my core that I didnt draw a MANLY-Sailor-Moon for this, but I’m pretty sure the goal of these things is not to scare people away. *sheds a MANLY tear.* Anyway, I have to really bust this thing out as fast as I can too, tight deadline is tight.
Also! The show’s mascot this year, shown in upper left corner of my doodle-sketch, was designed by Kevin Bolk, and she is adorable as all get-out. You can and should see her here: http://fav.me/d4owt2g
OC Suoh. He is a fox dude who looks after abandoned kits with next to no control over their shapeshifting powers, just like him. They are all full of fight.
I meant to take more scans of this….
Uhhh. Anyhow. I feel like it’s in a good place as far as the pencils phase go, and I’m going to try and take it into Photoshop soon to see if I can’t get the same kind of finish on it that I did with the little Sora picture a while back.
It’s pretty explosive looking right now, so I’m a little worried that I’m losing the image to the process again. I have some ideas how to approach it again should the battle go ill, but, for the time being, I’ll go with crazy amounts of blind optimism as usual.
In other news, I’m very slowly but surely making a petticoat. It will be completed over the steady course of hundreds of thousands of years…
