February suggestion art: Círdan looking at the sea

Here's the sketch for Juliette's suggestion! I think I haven't drawn Círdan since... 1992? 

Elrond (commission)

An Elrond sketch as commission for Paul! Now for finishing the steampunk fish; but first, surviving a Sunday at the in-laws. 🫣

The darndest cutest halfling

Liam O'Brien setting out to break my heart yeat again; three times in an episode. 

Sleeping Orym cradling the silent sending stone = 💔

CR thumbnail redraw, and steampunk fish coming along

Welcome to Isobel, Tara, Leona, and Ian! Great to have you! 😊

As you can see, I dived right into the steampunk fish (heh...

Der wunderbare Widogast - finished (and a NSFW picnic on Discord)

So here's the finished dirt wizard for Emily! I had a lot of fun with the fiery oranges against drab earth-tones. 

Up next: Steampunk fish! (What did I get myself into? XD) 

I...

My favourite moment with digital watercolours:

When all the colours are roughly blocked in on their separate layers and I have colour schemes and contrasts down pat, and I can switch off my brain and just bask in colour and texture for the next...

Der wunderbare Widogast - Lineart

This took ages (and I survived four DMing sessions in eight days - yes, because my D&D club at school was AGAIN today, but at least thirteen-year-old kids are totally happy with a litt...

Caleb Art Nouveau - lineart in progress

Welcome to three new Patrons - Areingwe, Sammy, and Heliodor! Glad to have you here! <3 

Been busy with the Art Nouveau piece of Caleb! Redid the pose and figure about three times and...

Oops, my hand slipped. =D

Forced myself not to overthink stuff and be bold with colours, and managed to get myself out of a little rut I was starting to get into again. 

I also survived two of my three DMing sess...

Steampunk fish and a new and improved Orym (spoiler!)

First off, welcome to new patron, Catherine! 

Second sketch in the current round of commissions: a steampunk lionfish, with some anglerfish in the margins. What fresh ni...

Der Wunderbare Widogast - sketch

A whole bunch of new peeps! Welcome Tay, Tara, A Nonny Mouse, Jamie, Areingwe, and Bobbie! I ho...

Tentatively opening commissions

First things first - I know that a lot of you have been waiting for commissions, and have been asking me about certain projects, but I can only take on very few, and in a very restricted manner, so...

Pengolodh working at his window overlooking the bay of Alqualonde

A warm welcome to several new folks! Hello Pedro, Mari, Middi, and Jamie! 

So, Troels, your tenacity paid off! Here's ...

"The touch of divinity" finished!

"You smell of the touch of divinity. That makes you… enticing!" 

I didn’t change that much between now and the end of last night’s livestream, but somehow, there were still two mor...

Live chat/Livestream!

We just tried it out and it works! =D Join me in one hour (6 pm CET) to chat, and watch me work on this painting of Orym! I'll be happy to demonstrate all sorts of stuff, so don't hesitate to ask.&...

Touch of divinity - lineart

Welcome to new supporter, Inja! <3 

I'm finding another nice aspect about CSP: It allows me to do such a clean sketch that the lineart can stay on the same layer, just refining, clean...

The touch of divinity

Yes, sometimes I still draw Orym with his clothes on. 😁 The title is a quote from Nana Morri, Fearne's hag grandmother, who sensed some divine eyes on Orym. She didn’t specify whose they were,...

Falling in love II

The other weird thing about falling in love: you spend time with the one you're crushing on, having a great time, and you think you’re the only one with butterflies. 😁

Also, Jenny on 31s...

Falling in love

I don’t know about you, but thinking back to the earliest days of falling in love, the feeling that it most associated with it is PANIC. 😂

This is from my headcanon of Will and Orym bein...

Sketches (plus some seriously NSFW)

Welcome to three new folks already this month: Melinda, Katharina, and Kiwi! So glad you’re with us!

I'm in the middle of an art slump, with my eyes more or less cooperating but me just hat...

Wedding day

First finished art based on CSP models! Massive thanks to Rae, who helped me find head models as well, which are at least as useful as body models for the poses and  angles you see here. Will ...

"Help!"

I hope you’re not tired of me waxing poetic over CSP yet?

This is a scene I really wanted to draw for over a year because it really broke my heart - Orym, freshly resurrected by Fearne, stu...

Painting tutorial, brushes bundle, and more fun with CSP

I finally tied together the tutorial for my Texture Galore watercolour set! Not narrated, as that’s such an insane amount of work, but with in-depth tips at normal speed so you can see exactly wh...

CSP sketches - I’m having such a blast!

This such a revolution!! The only thing I haven’t found in Clip Studio Paint are props, which is why the grip on the sword hilt is the least convincing thing here, lol.

This is going to m...

Clip Studio Paint - why didn't I know this???

After thirty years of trying to pose wooden IKEA dummies whose flexibility starts and ends at raising their arms, or plastic "body-kuns" whose flexibility is pretty ok IF they can hang on to all th...

A propos things taking too long…

One reason why everything seems to take ages in Procreate at the moment is entirely my fault, and I wouldn’t want it any other way. Every fifteen minutes while I'm drawing, I find myself thinking...
