Happy 2025!

Happy New Year! Wow, it’s been a bit since I last updated here. I’ve been meaning to start updating my sketchblog again for a while, and the new year seems like a prime time to start. My plan is to start using this blog as an additional archive for posts I make on social media....Continue Reading
Recent Sketches + Vaknaa Design Concepts

Recent Sketches + Vaknaa Design Concepts

Happy Thanksgiving! We are likely cooking up a storm in the kitchen right now, but let’s cross-celebrate with a compilation post with a few recent sketches. Above is a profile sketch practice of Corveil. I was mainly imagining a slightly different shape for the tip and bridge of his nose. Also, his hair was originally...Continue Reading

Arquel, Corveil, Vaknaa, & Kurt Sketch Paintings

Crop from an Arquel painting I think might be fun to finish. Corveil in his fancy new parka. This was mainly an excuse to try out the design. Corveil in his parka with the hood up. Arquel practice. Crop from an Arquel painting I was fiddling with. For whatever reason, I seem to tend to...Continue Reading

Arquel & Corveil Sketch Compilation from the past few months

Arquel & Corveil Sketch Compilation from the past few months

I’ve been wanting to start compiling the sketches I’ve been doing this year in this sketchblog to have a place to organize things a bit more. Crop of a painting with Arquel and Corveil from a while back. Underpainting of Arquel with his hair tied back. I think monochromatic underpainting might still be my favorite...Continue Reading

Guild Wars 2 Art Compilation

Guild Wars 2 Art Compilation

Similar to the Trahearne & Malyck compilation post, I thought it might be fun to compile a post to house the Guild Wars 2 artwork I’ve made over the years. Like the previous post, this will be kept updated. Hopefully this might become a little archive that’s easy to browse. GW2 Commissions | Charr |...Continue Reading
Trahearne & Malyck Art Compilation

Trahearne & Malyck Art Compilation

Paint-ober 2021

Paint-ober 2021

During October, I tried a self-prompt monthly challenge that I decided to call “Paint-ober!” I checked to see if this was an official or unofficial prompt anywhere, and didn’t find much for it. I’m sure it’s been participated in before, but it doesn’t seem to be very popular. I’ve never been interested in completing a...Continue Reading

ZBrush Sculpts & Sculpt+Paintings

ZBrush Sculpts & Sculpt+Paintings

I really enjoy using ZBrush as a kind of digital maquette – it was fun to explore the possibilities for Vaknaa’s design this way. Particularly with her head crest feathers. The above painting is painted over a rough sculpture of her. This is another sculpt+paint of Vaknaa. The rest are sculpt+paintings of Aurelle. The hair...Continue Reading
Guild Wars 2 ZBrush Sculpts

Guild Wars 2 ZBrush Sculpts

I ended up doing a few sculpts this past spring/summer, enough to split the ZBrush sculpts into two posts! In this one I’ll post a few of the GW2-related posts. Guild Wars 2 Charr Guardian Sculpt+Paint Guild Wars 2 Charr Guardian sculpt+paint.         Sculpt for the above sculpt+paint! Click on the thumbnails...Continue Reading
Blender Sculpts

Blender Sculpts

Earlier this year, I had a hankering to try and learn 3D sculpting. ZBrush is the go-to program for this, but because I wasn’t sure the laptop I was using could handle it, I became interested to try Blender first. I was also interested in checking out Blender’s sculpting tools, because I had heard they’ve...Continue Reading
GW2 Roadrunner Mount Painting! | Plus random thoughts about entertainment media

GW2 Roadrunner Mount Painting! | Plus random thoughts about entertainment media

  I was inspired to paint after seeing the new mount option in Guild Wars 2! It’s a “roadrunner mount,” but I was very excited because it reminded me of a mount idea I had a while back: This mount idea is based off a greater prairie chicken, which is one of my favorite chickens!...Continue Reading
It’s 2020! Five years! Let’s start posting again with some artwork of Vaknaa

It’s 2020! Five years! Let’s start posting again with some artwork of Vaknaa

Wow! It’s been five years since my last post to my sketchblog. Are blogs still a thing? Do I even know anyone who still keeps a blog? I don’t think I do! I’m kind of drawn to the relative anonymity this blog must have now. I loved blogging, and the only reason I stopped was...Continue Reading
Sunny afternoon sketch

Sunny afternoon sketch

The commission I’m currently working on uses a lot of dark values, and I am having a heck of a time trying to see the details in it when it’s so bright and sunny today. Did some idle doodling instead while seeing if some cloud cover would roll in, but I think I’ll have to...Continue Reading

Late night sketch before sleeping. Not my best composition, but it was fun to sketch.
