“Impale” Work-in-Progress | March 21, 2025

Corveil and Arquel. Corveil stabs Corveil under a red moon. They are below an archway, greenery growing around them, with water streaming by their feet.
Corveil and Arquel

There seems to be a theme between this and the last post. Haha.

This was a sketch idea I wanted to jot down yesterday. I started trying out some vague decorative background ideas. Still deciding which way to take it. Other than the general pose, I didn’t plan the rest out. It felt nice to just scribble-wander for a bit. Backgrounds are secretly one of my favorite things to paint – but I oddly don’t end up showing too many here. Maybe that’ll change this year!

Initial sketch. Messy line drawing showing Arquel impaling Corveil.

There are some things about the sketch I like better than the current version – mainly the angle of Arquel’s head. The way it was changed probably reads slightly more clearly – I think – though I like the intensity of the sketch. That might also just be by virtue of being a sketch, though. That sketchy energy! Why sketching is still probably my favorite part of the drawing process.

Earlier background idea. The two characters float in front of a red moon.

Email Updates (Mailing List)

Want to stay updated, but wish there was an easier way to keep up with this site? I've set up an "email updates" or "mailing list" for this very reason. Check it out below!

New sign-ups currently receive a free PDF for The Harbinger's Path Chapter 1, from my Trahearne & Malyck GW2 fan comic. This version is exclusive to this email list, containing bonus art not currently available anywhere else.

I might change the sign-up bonus in the future, so if you're interested in seeing this PDF, consider joining soon!

You can unsubscribe anytime. Your inbox, your rules!

Or, perhaps RSS is more your style? There exists an RSS for this sketchblog, as well as an RSS for comic projects (currently page updates).

My aim is setting up ways to connect that's more stable than the whims of social platforms. If this interests you, consider signing-up.

Either way, take care and I hope to see you again!
