Will attempt to maintain resemblance of activity. As you may noticed my account was dead for 7 years ---Tumblr notified me with 7 years anniversary LOL ----
However it is damn difficult to post regularly. Will try to stick to every Sunday schedule. Maybe more often, if this is actually becomes the place "where the light lives" :)
Posting a little work in progress. I normally don't do redraws, as my ego is too fragile. However I was browsing old scetchbook and found this... And it just felt like so much waisted potential, that I new I need to redraw it.
Moving it from traditional to digital. This is WIP that hopefully will be finished somewhere next week. Surprisingly, I feel like my skill have improved some how. So few character redesigns in plan after that.
The cutest version of Sanji I’ve seen!!!
one piece posting yayayayayay
“Well, they are not wrong!”
Another attempt at scene from fanfiction.
This time “on the way to the wedding” as it gets more and more exciting.
Well, drawing a scene is actually completely different from what I was doing previously… you need to think about facial expressions, poses, background - and all that present an interesting challenge. I either level up or die trying 🤣
What I can say….. the best present ever!!!!
We had a Valentine's themed art trade event over at the Forge of Wonders where I got to challenge my art skills by sending two characters on an outing!
Here's my take on a date between @annacory-blog's Twilight Caste Solar, Gale, and my Koh, the hotshot gunslinging male persona of my Eclipse Caste, Kalara.
Anna told me for a date, Gale would love a mischievous evening or reading quietly, so I thought "Why not both?" and sent them on a date to break into a dynast's heretical Scarlet Empress library for a picnic.
Meanwhile, Koh's bodyguard, Night Locust, watches on, despite being told to stay at home. He's glad the boss is having fun, but is secondhand embarrassed at the boss reading lines from "Scarlet Empress Unbound" a purportedly true account of the Empress' secret sexy adventures. 😆
Painted in Procreate with final touches in Photoshop. ---- Enjoy some detail shots of the heretical library:
And finally, a video so you can see how much of a disaster this image was at the start before I was able to salvage it.
And I have finished this beautiful creepy lady.
weirdly I feel like blurring the line art, it is too sharp.
In case if you are wondering what is going on - this is advance techniques of negotiation ;)

Second day, second page. Because it’s weekend I had time to do something finished.
So.. I have done a new art of really old character Ying the Red Crow. Last time I draw her was in 2016 years ago and she looked like this
Someone else might be drawing her right now *blush* and I realise she might be due some redesign. That what I done with arguable success.
Thing is I like a lot of details, but I HATE the overall outcome. Guess it is still done.
Still counts towards the new year resolution goal of 50 total art.
Funny thing, content of the book was kindly provided by my 6 years old daughter. She said: "Write there I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH and then cross everything as she is a witch and loves no one". And this weirdly strike a point, as the last time I touched the character she was recovering after her beloved one died.
Back to exalted!!!
I am back to drawing exalted characters, as nothing can give more opportunity to draw shiny senseless swirls.
I present you Rahna - infernal exalt that belongs to @Toxinfox.
I have attempted to depict him fading in an essence storm after the “work” is done.
There were quite a few speculations on why he is shushing someone. I still adhere to theory that he is shushing child that accidentally woke up, after their family was dealt with. Because he might be an assassin (former I believe) but he will not harm innocent child. Well…. At least this is my vision. Toxinfox will know better!!!!
