Been a while since I've done an art round up (apart from the ArtFight roundup), so here's a bunch of sketches I've done in relation to the Ibrida comic I'm picking at and it's setting/characters.
A stack of 11 art, mostly sketches, a few colored and finished pieces. )

Had an idea for a new character, an older soldier type and one of the species of the first planet Humans and Ertakar make contact with and sort of learn to navigate how to communicate with a wholly different living species and to not have the same outcomes they had in the past.

Bloody art

I'm trying to catch up my art posting here so here's ones I didn't want to just throw into any old art post because it's bloody and depicts various injuries. They're not explicitly detailed, they're all sketchy, but I prefer to keep it separate. No death tho.
4 Images depicting mild to moderate gore )

So uh I've gone from not drawing much to drawing an awful lot so have an art dump. This isn't everything, trying to space some of it out a bit.

some colored stuff and semi-polished sketches, 11 images )

Last Hurrah

So a while ago I lamented about how I wanted another sketchbook but I needed to finish out the one I had and well.. I did it.

20 images under cut, lots of sketch pages )

And that's it, the sketch book is filled, I can put it in a box and move on to a new sketchbook.

Symbols

armaina: time for a change (Default)
As a bit of a heads up, I'm gonna be changing my icon on all platforms at the beginning of 2020. It's been a long time coming. (for the new that may not matter, for the people that have been around I've had this default icon a long time)

I'm working on some new symbol stuff, two things. One is a full coat of arms, the other is a sort of minimal, unique personal symbol that'll be used for a new primary icon across all accounts. So here's my sketch page and some concepts I threw together to work on it.

I been talking about how my ability to draw and art felt better but I never really.. posted anything so I should probably do that.

Just sketches for now )

As promised here is my full completed June Art Slam! 30 Days is all I signed up for, it's a mix of sketches, experimentation and finished pieces.
All 30 Days of Art )

I've tried for so many years to try to accomplish any ArtSlam goal and I've always caved after about a week or two. This is the first time I've seen it through to the end and I've even got a lot of completely finished pieces in the middle. Even if it's just busts and some of them a little lazy/fast it's still a lot more I've done for myself than I have in years and if anything the fact that I've managed to follow through to the end I think is a testament to how I'm improving, mentally.

Not only that, but now my 3 main settings all have relatively uniform profile pics

I just need to finish up the human profiles/pictures for the Pretorians and I'll be more or less wrapped up!

Also I discovered it's easier to draw human faces if I give them dot eyes first and then fill in the eyes later after I finish with the face? Wild, but I'm not complaining.

Rough Going

Art's been very difficult lately, drawing feels like I've forgotten how things work, I keep getting feelings of 'where do I even put anything' as I'm doing it, just stuff doesn't feel as natural as it used to. Trying to draw despite those feelings, is very difficult, the fact that it's such a struggle for me makes me not wanna do it but I know it's not gonna get any better if I don't.

here's 5 sketches )
armaina: Just a shuckle drawing (shuckle draw)
It's been a while since my last sketch post, both on account of LJpics hosting uploads being a mess (hey it's still one of the easiest to use image hosts I got around) I'm actually looking back at my sketches like 'did I seriously not make a post for this' geeze I'm so far behind.

most of it is related to characters of mine, what a surprise. 14 sketches )
armaina: Just a shuckle drawing (shuckle draw)
So after realizing Tumblr keeps changing it's servers and breaking my hotlinks, I decided to go back to putting up all my sketches on the LJ scraps archive. So at least my last post wont' break anymore and you can see it !!
Lately I've been having fun wight designing stuff for others, 8 sketches )

It's been a long time since I've done my art posts to my journals - not for lack of want but just because I was kinda unmotivated to art, among other things, for a really long time.

I think I'm gonna catch up but instead of chronological post dumping I think I'm going to post in thematic groups? similar subjects and all. This one's gonna be 'future munin' so spoilers I guess?

Mostly sketches here [7] )

22 sketches, a lot of Pretorians )

So, now I've got a desktop of my own and I'm back to the CRT... and I'm discovering just how badly leveled my sketches were :| The cleanup areas stick out like a sore thumb. Aaaauuugh I haaate overly bright LCDs!
