Former 19 year old, aspiring 26 year old, mostly an art blog, might post other stuff here and there though.

Recently watched helluva boss, and decided do do a low-effort shitpost marker drawing of Stolas, based on this post I saw:
Might do a more serious high effort piece of him later, but this was fun.
It’s done! I’m actually really happy about it. There’s some parts that don’t work at all, but overall I think it turned out well.
Another progress pic. Unfortunately, since I’m a novice, there’s probably a 50/50 chance I ruin it before it’s done tbh, but I’ve been enjoying the process.
Started as a pose study from Pinterest, but I think I want to turn it into something more. This is just the sketch before I do the watercolours over it, but I probably won’t get to colouring for a bit, since I’m fairly busy this week.
A watercolour piece of a kitchen. Reference from Pinterest. I honestly prefer the uncoloured version and other steps in the progress to the actual finished product, but I’m still learning, so that’s fine, I guess.
My attempt at drawing Elphelt Valentine from Guilty Gear Strive. I haven’t played the game and don’t plan to, but her theme has been encouraging and motivational for me even though I generally don’t tend to like metal as a genre(Although I have found a few songs I like. There’s no genre I dislike as a whole.)
This is the first time I’ve used my digital drawing software, so it’s definitely amateurish. I only used one layer and didn’t even attempt colouring. It also came out looking a bit unhinged. Nonetheless, I’m happy with it.
My first watercolour piece. It’s an attempt at the character Vernon from the D&D actual play series What’s Left of Us (if actual plays are your thing, I highly recommend it. I watch it on YouTube at Jaycorn’s channel, but I believe there’s also a twitch).
My attempt at drawing the character Rathgrithr from the actual play D&D game What’s Left of Us. (I recommend it if you have the time, it’s a neat story and has intriguing characters.
Bit of fanart for actual play D&D series What’s Left of Us. This is an attempt at the character Emery. I’m happy with the pose, although for some reason it still seems a bit more rigid than I would have hoped, and I’m a bit disappointed about my colouring. Either way, it’s progress, I think.
Study from reference on Pinterest
Altogether, I’m fairly happy with it, but it does look a bit “off” in some ways.
I haven’t posted in a while, so here’s something I tried to draw while out on a hike. The perspective on the bench is definitely wonky, and on the whole, this doesn’t look nearly as good as I was hoping. Any advice on doing backgrounds?
Some stuff I drew for a friend. It’s the characters Ashe and Bob from Overwatch. I haven’t played the game yet, but it was still cool to work on. I really enjoyed drawing the hat on Ashe and all the mechanical stuff for Bob. The colouring got sort of rushed at the end for Bob (see his right arm especially) and I sort of messed up the right shoulder, but I like these.
I wanted to try out different angles for the face, so this is the one I did today. My 3rd drawing using the markers, plus some coloured pencil this time.
Just got some markers. These are my first two times using them. I still have a lot to learn, but they’re pretty fun.

(Although I still haven’t quite learned how to do likenesses, so it doesn’t look that much like him)
I doodled this on the back of my laptop(pencil rubs off easily, so I haven’t ruined it or anything), since I didn’t have paper with me at the time. It was done in a few minutes, but I actually like the hat and I wanted to post something.
A piece I finally got to work on again. I think it’s my best so far. It started with the apple, then I felt like drawing a full scene, so I did it. Many things in the image are references to a band I like called Mili. Other things are just stuff I thought would look nice. Anyways, it was fun to work on, and I hope to do more and better things like this in the future.
I’m not really happy with it, but I wanted to post something. I’ve been pretty busy recently and was trying out transparency. I’m not there yet.
Colouring update. I don’t have much time the rest of today, so that’s probably all for today.
A piece I’m working on. I’m bad at colouring, so I wanted to share it before I possibly ruined it. Nonetheless, I’ll follow up later with the coloured version.

A little colored pencil doodle cause I was hungry.
A drawing and some music I made a while ago.
This was sort of what got me practicing drawing, since it was one of the first pieces I was proud of, but I couldn’t (and still can’t) consistently make things I was proud of or that looked like what I’d imagined in my head.
An apple. It's really flawed, but I'm proud of it, since it's the best one I've done so far. Maybe next week I'll draw a better one.
