Laid in Lavender Page 16

Early Access: I vaguely want to fix the speech bubble positioning in the first panel so the direction is easier to read but I'm not sure I have the layer info i need anymore.

Sketch Raffle [Feb17] for Basil

I wasn't totally sure what to go with (full liberty) so I drew my old character Wolf! limited colour rather than a monochrome sketch.

INKtober 2016: 01

this zine was unfortunately scrapped because this style was too 'heavy' and I feel it wouldn't work well in print. I have a few completed illustrations I'll be uploading, and some uncompleted roughs, ...

Laid in Lavender Page 15

Almost forgot to update! This week's early access.

[warm up] taur sketches

a bull...? a heavy horse? some bizarro hybrid because all i wanted to draw was stocky legs and bull horns. i'll clean these up and make something outta them.

[Concept Art] Buck

Here's the new guy! He's changed a lot from the original conception, the only thing I regret about his current design is he doesn't have that lovely roman nose anymore.

This week's early access! The centaur looks a little wonky in that first panel, but I soon got into the groove of drawing him. I'll show off his concept art soon as well, to introduce him!

[Gouache] Tiger

playing around with blurs and colour grading on this old piece, since I've never actually scanned in gouache before. I'm pretty pleased!

HOOFBEATS: Centaurs

Another (experimental) page from my short zine HOOFBEATS, this time featuring the centaur duo Buck and Mikhail! Both their designs have changed slightly in the last couple months, as they cameo in Lai...

[work in progress] February Wallpaper

$10+ patrons get a nice big Hi-Res wallpaper each month, so here's an early progress shot of this month's one.

[work in progress] SPARK page

I took a break from SPARK for a while to focus wholly on Laid in Lavender, but yesterday I had a grand ol' time doing this beast of a lineart. I'm going to put the flats down today and polish up the b...

[experimental] Popee!

I love this murder child. Been experimenting with photoshop sketch styles and some new brushes!

Laid in Lavender Page 13

This week's Early Access. I also managed to polish off and finish another batch today (pg 23-26) so that's a weight off my shoulders! Only nine pages left to draw until Chapter One is finished! Then i...

HOOFBEATS: Unicorns

different layout, but I was really happy with the way my HOOFBEATS zine turned out. I think I'm going to start sharing the Hi-Res zine images for $1 Patreons since it's been out a while.

Comparison: Dorian 2014-2017

If you thought Basil had changed, Dorian's not even really the same guy anymore! His personality did a complete 180 on its way to canon, poor dude.

Comparison: Basil 2015-2017

My boy's grown up so well!

[progress gif] Dance Magic Dance

That Dance from jjba part 5, starring the three magic users of my DnD campaign. there's a lot of work to do....

Early Access page for this week!

If it seems like there's not much going on in my pages, it's because I work to make an A5 physical copy and it feels too cluttered to work as if it's an A4 or an Ame...

[Concept Sketch] V

It's going to be literal years until this design comes into play but it's killing me not being able to show anyone....

[Warm Down Sketches] Basil

I love drawing my boy so much, I've missed him. It's been a tough week. So have some unnecessarily summery Basils. I like messing with shading colours.

[Warm Down Sketch] Basil

So for the entire week I've been wallowing in depression because I attempted to draw Basil and just, couldn't. My hand wouldn't do the thing and the lines just weren't going.... It was really upsettin...

[Concept Sketches] Basil Lebonaire

I draw Basil a lot, and he's probably one of my /favourite/ OCs. Most of these sketches I've never put online, and none of them had been cleaned up properly before. This is the kind of thing my concep...

Lavender 23 [WIP]

And here's that same panel, now fully shaded and ready for texturing! This page now 90% finished.

Lavender 23 [WIP]

Working on some hard shading this evening. I could potentially have four pages ready for lettering by the end of the day, how exciting!

[Progress GIF] Laid in Lavender pg 10

First one I've done of these, to give a rough idea of how I work - or at least, how I worked in this scene. This page's gif is posted publicly as a sort of teaser, but future ones will be available to...

[Concept Sketches] Flora Meyer

Some Flora sketchbook pieces (and one digitally coloured) to go with Dorian's. I like to experiment a lot on what colours and styles work well for her, since I'm not totally set on her costume for Vol...
