I need to stop using the 'fill' tool as much and actually start painting in the image more, I'm worried I'm becoming way too reliant on it and need to start painting it more myself.

I'm really proud of how the cookie turned out >.>

Trying to get back into things after a short break

I had to name my pangolin Sandshrew hehe, praise Wango \o/

Watched Chainsaw man again recently with my friends Sylvie and Yoake and this time wanted to draw Makima if she were "The woman in the red dress"

Watching Chainsaw Man Reze Arc movie with friends and wanted to draw Makima, grabbed the colours and such from references but wanted to share the sketch, I'd really like to finish the whole thing at some point ^_^

an illustration by Spindle of the characters Tether (on the left, a woma with short black hair) and Enoch (on the right, a nearly-fully cyber-augmented man). Both are sitting on stairs, Tether is smoking and holding a cup of coffee, while Enoch is next to her giving his shoulder a quick massage (tense nerves)

coffee break ☕

Squished cheeks!!!! Wanting to do more Kai and Eclipse and trying with the textured brush which I really like for sketches :D

Trying some new brushes to see how they feel, loved some but wasn't a fan of a couple, some of the poses were recommended by friends while others I just googled 'simple anime poses' for references

also yes I cut off the hands and just added some shading instead of toes, sshhhhh

And finished!!!! I think the shading could be better but I'm happy with it, especially as my first(?) nsfw piece. She looks great and I'm definitely getting better with eyes. Overall extremely happy the practice paying off for her and poses/perspective.

yknow... one of the main reasons i turned to digital work was the lack of proper work space to paint comfortably.

thankfully this year i'm moving to a more than adequate space with propel tools and light setup so i'm thinking... imma get my hands nice and dirty once again XD

Also happy it feels like I found an angle that I liked more, my first attempt felt a little copied from the reference and then I tried to adjust it to what I wanted and couldn't quite get it

Definitely gonna try and finish this over the next couple of day, i also want to draw Kai smushing Eclipses face, then eventually I want to just try and power out some sketches, get more comfortable and quicker with drawing some things.

As for attempt number 3? 4? I'm a lot happier after going away and looking at some things, gives more of an idea of what she's resting on, the indents in the bed, tried 3 different attempts with the eyes and no idea how I'm going to do the toes

Found this pose online that I really wanted to try and recreate for Eclipse, attempt 1 was... less than good >.> but gave me an idea of what I wanted with the legs crossing, getting more of a body angle and messing with well.. messy hair

Lots happened over the last few days thats led to a lot of practice, but also I fell on my left hand and massively bruised it, sprained my ankle and bruised forehead all from falling into my desk and door because I stood up and my foot was asleep >.>

Finished up the Spider Demon Mum from Demon Slayer, absolutely love her design

Some random doodles

WIP, watching Demon Slayer with a friend and some of the characters designs are SO FREAKIN GOOD!!!!

Another casual one of Kai having a smoke after / during work I don't know xD

Just wanting to draw lots of things today based on some references I've been stockpiling.

This was fun :D

Realise I could have added a bit of shading on the arms or in the hair, but I kinda love how it looks to be honest. Shading the top and stomach was a really good learning experience.

*stares at the 2am* I'm happy with it, sleepy Eclipse dreaming of... a good book? Kai? Coffee? These are things we ponder.

with my latest drawing featuring.. my own hand xD

A WIP of a sleepy Eclipse.

Practicing with some expressions for Eclipse. Mainly trying to get more comfortable at head poses and sometimes a bit more of a cartoony reaction kind of thing?

Ok Roomie, put down the videogames and go draw

Apparently I'm seriously behind on Pokémon games and I've been told to catch-up by my friends >.>
