Edit: February 6, 2025 I decided to refine the Malyck drawing a bit more, seen above! I since wrote on the following page, and there was quite a bit of see-through.

Happy Year of the Snake! I’ve had a sketch of Aurelle with her pet snake or familiar I did a while ago, and today seemed an opportune time to try and add to it. This is how the sketch looked when I opened it up earlier today: For reference, here’s how large Julius is normally:...Continue Reading

I’ve been making some small UI tweaks to this blog and my main site that I wanted to document for myself somewhere – and this blog seems the perfect place to do so! Name change The first change, which is both the most and least obvious, is I changed the address for this blog. The...Continue Reading

Forest sketch. Autumnal forest sketch. Forest stream idea.

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
