two sides, one coin

roar

Various things have me frustrated and angry recently, so I drew my character Freddy. She’s a good outlet for these kinds of moods. Feels good to draw for myself again, too!

Inktober 2016

I did Inktober this year for the first time in a couple of years and it was a lot of fun! I used post-it notes to keep my workload light and casual. I started out following the official guidelines with some characters of mine, but eventually it turned into assorted valve fanart, dragon people, and a whole week's worth of bat drawings.

LET'S GO FOR A RIDE

Hello, friends, school has been keeping me busy but I'm very excited to post something I've been slowly chipping away at for a while! Some members of the Dota 2 art community have organized a massive collaboration to illustrate a dota-themed traditional tarot card deck, with each card being represented by a hero. So far it's been a wonderful mix of professional and hobby artists and everyone is inspired and inspirational and is a joy to work with. The card art is all coming along beautifully too! You can track progress if you're interested on http://dotatarot.tumblr.com/ !

For my card, I picked (surprise) one of my favourite heroes Batrider, who's representing the Knight of Cups in this collab. I am told that it's about traversing difficult terrain, which of course - as my fellow Dota-players know - suits him to a T!

Since I don't do a lot of illustrations with this amount of detail, I also kept track of progress and made a process gif since I've always wanted to try doing one:

And just for fun some more casual drawings I did of him on a separate occasion - love this character!

sweet dreams

I made Kirby themed valentines this year! Enjoy!

Also, here's an alternate version of the Star Rod one. I had drawn in the little Dark Matter blobs before I remembered they weren't in the same game, but I thought they were cute enough to keep. Disclaimer here in case some individual decides to take me to task for it, though.

I also made another one of these for those who like Lalala more for some reason.

cyclops and goblin

school has been super busy but I am learning a lot! here's a couple characters I've been doodling around for a while...

Xiao Xiao cover art

Joyce Chng is an A+ fantasy author and fellow singaporean, and i recently had the pleasure of making some cover art for her latest story Xiao Xiao, an ongoing YA fantasy set in Qing Dynasty China. if any of that sounds like fun times to you (and why shouldn't it), go click that link and READ IT! :D

blood in the water

Sadly I haven't been working on a whole lot of things I can actually post just yet, so not much of an art update for February, but here's the drawing I did for Girls Drawing Girls' theme this week, Mermaids. I thought I'd do something that's a bit of a departure from the norm c:
