Watercolor Doodles

So the other day I had some slight technical issues. I took that opportunity to do some experimentation in my sketchbook! It's been awhile since I attempted watercolors, so this was an interesting experience.

Waggert & Dardo

I missed one day of daily characters because of some technical difficulties, but I'm back!

Waggert is a very playful squirrel from Biggert City. He loves comedy and many of the members of the city think he is hilarious. Waggert is a member of Pobuck's Joke Club, and is the reason he gets so much business during Joke Season. Waggert is super admired by all comedians in Biggert City because of his great skills.

Dardo is one of Mabu's trusty partners who helps out on the airship. He usually does a lot of the handyman work whenever something needs fixing. But Dardo is not afraid to hire on new workers to help with the cleaning portion of work for the ship. He is usually a very dedicated worker, but he enjoys taking breaks from time to time.

Amelia Comic

I felt like doing something a little different, so I sketched out a little comic based on a journal entry I wrote a few months back. This is part of the Delusional Breakthrough Eventure, where Amelia is introduced.

Spalin & Kusanna

Some of my daily character drawings! I wanted to play around with adding some highlights this time.

Spalin is a very friendly greeter at the Great Spa in Eustar World. She is always very happy to greet new customers, and knows all of the ins and outs of the Great Spa. She is extremely good at convincing customers to spend time and money at the spa, and will do whatever she can to please them. In addition, she even gets to use the spas in her free time (and most importantly, she gets free massages).

Kusanna is an infiltrator in Limoo Village who works for TBroWTLT. She has an intense hatred towards Haru and the other leaders of PS World. Kusanna is very tactful and has very good stealth abilities.

Recent Sketches!

I've been sketching more in my free time to give myself a little break from major projects.

Since my brother started playing Dangan Ronpa, I just had to draw the cast!

Some doodles I did of Scott since I hadn't drawn him in awhile.

Antagonist Characters

Some recent character drawings I did. These ones both happen to be antagonists!

Tekidan is a terrorist who resides in Diamond City and has the ability to use his eyes to create explosions. He does his work undercover as a police officer. He is usually a serious man, but can become very talkative and lively whenever someone tries to push his buttons. His goal is to completely obliterate the Diamond Forest, so he slowly works his way towards achieving that.

Koji is one of the Eight Dragons of Fear, who run the Eight Nations of the Demon World. Koji is the fearsome leader of the Fire Continent who is very demanding. Though he is often taken advantage of for being the weakest of the dragons in the Demon World. He is not as well-respected as the others, which is why he is much more angry and hasty.

Nays Collab: Revisited

This has been an ongoing activity my brother and I have done with our characters. So these are a few fun drawings that came from the event.

The start of a Collab drawing of Murou.

A super quick doodle of Sonic.

Blue Creatures!

These past two daily characters just so happened to be blue creatures.

Gozo is the organized manager of the Gozo Burger; Biggert City's best burgers. His burger shop is very popular and always the go-to hangout for the citizens after school. He is always very busy, but luckily all of his family members work alongside him, especially when the shop is super packed. He often likes to stick to the rules and doesn't really give out discounts or coupons ever.

Towsh is Mr Dude's partner who possesses a hammer that has the ability to teleport. Before Mr Dude became a World Leader and learned how to teleport, Towsh was in charge of teleporting him and everyone else to various places. Towsh's job has been taken since Mr Dude learned to teleport, but he now just acts as a good friend to Mr Dude. He is a very friendly little creature.

Recent Digital Sketches

Various sketches I've been doing!

Some sketches I've been doing of The Nays for fun.

Some More Daily Characters!

Here are some more of my daily character drawings!

Wither is a Bird-in-Training from the River Peak Mountains who is able to tell the future. She is very intelligent and can give lots of useful information. She is usually very caring and provides information to Kids for free. The test is if they can make it up the treacherous mountain.

Endimanché is a member of the Koroshiya family who retreated from the Demon World with Mahesa. He is very serious and helps run the Hillside Manor. He is the one who cleans and takes after the cleanliness of the building. He is nice once you get to know him, but may seem stand-offish and stern when he first meets someone.

GUI Tests

So I've been working on a new project. I'm not planning on enclosing much information yet, but here are a few sample GUI ideas that I came up with.

Arno & Subeta

Some more of my daily characters!

Arno is a very peaceful creature from Demonica who would not harm a fly. He is very helpful and will do whatever he can to aid his friends. He is always looking out for others and is a very compassionate man.

Subeta is an assassin that fights with a kitchen knife as his weapon. He enjoys cooking and is a chef, when not working as an assassin. He also likes dancing, which is why he has a disco ball tattoo. When he met Yaro, he began an intense rivalry, since the two of them were equally matched on Timer.

Nays Gif Compilation

I'm working on a little project for fun where I give myself 2 hours to draw out some art for short little clips, and then about an hour to put it together in Premiere. So I'm making some little gif previews of the short clips before I finish them all and put them together. I'm also trying to experiment with different styles of animation, just for fun.

Ted steering a pirate ship

(Gravity Falls style)

Firebreath jumping off of a building and Animal checking in on him.
(Pajama Sam inspired; graphic style using the pencil tool)

Chone creating a city on top of a save point.
(Anime/chibi style)

Different Characters

These characters were a little different than the usual characters, so they were kind of difficult to create for me.

Len is a dedicated man who is always working hard as a warehouse worker. Him and his twin brother Karse were stranded on Time Fabric Island after his tour group took an unexpected turn. He lives in the mountains and usually is the one to gather firewood for his friends, because of his experience at his previous job. He is generally very helpful and friendly towards strangers.

Jasper is a serious vampire that cries blood instead of tears. He can turn into a swarm of rats in battle. If attacked with weapons made of any blessed material, he will be incapacitated. He subsists on human flesh and blood. He feeds not through his mouth, but via a long tongue with a mouth-like end. (Description from Seventh Sanctum)

Nay Activities

I've been really in the mood for making various projects revolving around my characters, so I decided to experiment and play around with a few things to get my creative juices flowing.

So I revisited an old fun activity from last year. This was a little activity with The Nays where they were put into groups based on the first letter of their name and I made up some little stories to sketch out. These were the costume designs I came up with for the activity.

And then I decided to make up a new little fun project for myself. I wanted to make a really intense trailer for a small little activity that's not so intense, just for fun. It took me about 5 hours total to put this little project together, so that was fun.

Blue Characters!

These past two characters just so happened to be blue AND somehow associated with Punchy. A member of the CrY family and Punchy's brother!

Gary is a very loud member of the Blue family. He loves rapping and singing in general, so he likes to pretend that he's a professional rapper. He is very close friends with his brother Laui, but he didn't really get along with many of his other siblings. Gary always screams and doesn't have a very good sense of volume.

Screem is a very lonesome member of the CrY family. He prefers to do pretty much everything by himself and doesn't really like to work with others. He is very powerful though, and uses that strength mainly to benefit himself. Although, when the time comes, he does do what he can to help out his family. (My file got corrupt as soon as I finished it, so I had to completely redo the lines and shading. That's why those look a little more rushed...)

Sketches & Doodles

I've been doodling some characters whenever I need time to think or just feel like warming up. Also I drew a few of these in the car ride to and from picnics.

Some digital stuff!

 

And some sketchbook stuff!

Sickness...

So I managed to stay healthy during all of my travelling this summer, but the minute I get home, I get sick. It's better than being sick while on a trip though, so I'm glad it happened now rather than earlier. But this means I might be slowing down a little and pumping out less art. I'm still going to do my daily characters and other daily drawing exercises, but you probably won't see any extra art until I'm recovered.

Fitu is a very energetic creature from Senay, a small town in AV World. Fitu is always talking, and is pretty much always in a good mood. He is very positive and always cheers up his friends, no matter what. He has been childhood friends with Piko, and will do whatever he can to help him out. Fitu uses his flames to his advantage in battle, and is a very powerful warrior.

Jawn is a very lively bartender who enjoys brewing his own beer with his good friend Alphonse. He is often found partying and getting drunk. He often is yelled at by Alphonse's wife for bringing Alphonse out to his parties and giving him free beer samples.

Old Characters Revisited

These ones are some older characters. Tosovo is only about three years old, but that still seems like awhile back. On the other hand, I made Chupo well over 10 years ago, so he had a bit of re-designing to go through.

Tosovo is the dangerous son of Divroga, who injected Ya genes into Tosovo. Tosovo is a very obedient child who does whatever his father asks of him, regardless of how outrageous it may sound. The Ya genes made him almost unbeatable. Divroga talks very highly of Tosovo, so he has a very big ego because of it.

Chupo is a very exotic bird-in-watching from the south. He has a very interesting choice of words, using words such as "feisty" or "fishy" to describe kids. He is very cheerful for the most part, but prefers things to be organized and orderly, or he will go berserk.

Digital Painting Practice!

So now I've been trying to do a lot more drawing than just my daily characters. I'm not going to post every single thing I do, since a lot of it is just practice and gestures, but these are some of the more finished things I did this week.

I haven't done digital painting in awhile, so I decided to do a little test.

And since I've been watching Naruto again recently, I drew this little piece of fanart.
