I'm also endeavoring to up the golly gee whiz attitude this week vs the droll nap that was a week ago. Bringing back the pep! Now, this video is my speed painting, in Manga Studio, of the past patreon exclusive line art, Veil. Now I know most people who read my blog, unless those might...

Photoshop 5.5 was the program I worked with (not CS5 like now lol that's like 10 versions ago) then and techniques have really evolved. Consequently I am relearning as I go and really don't know if my way is the best way (is it ever? ha) to do it but even if...

This is a piece that sort of took on a life of its own. I drew this while watching Game of Thrones (I don't watch much tv but that's not to miss as I heart the books!). I was afraid the inked product wouldn't match to the pencil but I really like how it turned out. I inked her with black copic Multiliner and the grass and clouds with grey. I really like the contrast just in the line work that...
