My Girlfriend Ivy Just Made Her First Finished Piece! I Started Teaching Her To Draw A Few Months Ago

This was one of my favorite pieces in 2016. I loved how menacing this quote was. I also loved Bill Cypher, so much that he later inspired my name. I drew him a lot!

Fun Facts About Jira, my world building project #1

Jira is home to many intelligent species other than humans.

to date there are

Silfs - human like creatures with horns and fluffy hair who are always some variant of red & blue

Avians - Bird people

Ramlans - mountain species with tough hairs like wool and horns

Iora - stationary mushroom people

Ghosts - beings made of Artificial Magic

Merpeople - an overall term for a variety of sea born intelligent life

Crystalites - beings of sentient crystal

Halfling Crystalites - corpses controlled by parasitic sentient crystals, unrelated to the crystals of the Crystalites despite the name

Grotton - ape-like creatures who originate from the darkest parts of the Ridge

Hybrids - half animal people the result of wild magic sickness

Shifters - animals who can shift into a semi-human form

Many of these species overlap with humans due to the the grip human traits have on Jiran evolution and the fact that many species are evolved forms of humans for particular environments

An experiment that once finished my gf dubbed Chadington

i'm just curious bc i'm watching How to Train Your Dragon and i always forget how happy and calm it makes me feel. i mean, i did name my cat after Toothless the dragon. but i also love Lion King, that's my Disney comfort movie. and my Ghibli comfort movie is Spirited Away. watching any of these when i'm in a foul mood or my anxiety is high always helps 🥰 but i watch them just for fun too, not only when i'm in a mood. what about you?

Ive been taking my art in a more manga / anime inspired direction lately so here I tried a lot of new techniques. This was my first time using screen tone and Action lines in a piece. The Japanese should say “Good Househusband”, I checked everywhere To make sure this was the right way to write it but I’m still learning so it may be incorrect. I’m also not sure if I over used the screen tone but I really like how it looks.

Overall the content of this piece was inspired by me finally taking a stab at cleaning my apartment lol. Sadly it isn’t as clean as the picture would suggest.(or as big 😅)

Vampire Knight Redesign Yuki Cross

I might elaborate on this redesign later since i thought through a lot of little details but mainly I just wanted to post this since I'm pretty proud of it. My take on Yuki Cross from Vampire Knight.

This piece was made in the beginning of 2018 and was my first piece in Fire Alpaca and using my new drawing tablet.

I was big into Villainous at the time and my favorite was Dr. Flug. I was fascinated with what could be under that mask. I didn't use much for creative juices and just gave him a normal human face.

I remember really wanting dramatic lighting and dark shadows but I couldn't figure out how especially seeing as Fire Alpaca didn't have a straight up bleeding brush. sense the scribbling. I was unhappy with this at the time but it was an important start. it was also just during a drawing slump so there was only so good I could feel about it.
