"A Hopeless Dream Chaser"
I’ve been wanting to make more Battlecats drawings. Since we are in the spooky season I wanted to draw a spooky cat, hence Skelecat. Wasn’t too sure what I would do so I just started hatching Skelecat but it seemed too simple so I hatched around it. But that still looked off. Adding some bats helped but I felt the addition of the tree branches really helped it in the end.

Today’s drawing is the soot creatures from the Ghibli films. I drew one picking up one of my dip pens.

I was having a hard time deciding what or who to draw today. While looking through my references I came upon the idea of drawing some Harry Potter art. In this instance I wanted to draw directly from a reference photo of Hermione. The bigger paper makes it easier to draw and add more details which is cool. But it does use a lot of ink and takes time to fill out the full paper.

Years ago I drew (back in 2018) Kanzaki Kaori in her fallen angle cosplay. Of course the drawing then was a bit wonky so I wanted to give it another try.
Also, I noticed that I was looking at this year’s prompts wrong so I think I’m just going to draw whatever comes to mind that day. Hopefully I do more autumn and Halloween inspired drawings to fit the mood.

It’s been a while since I last did a Watamote drawing. I had a couple of ideas for today’s drawing featuring “panic”, but I just couldn’t pass up drawing Kuroki Tomoko again.

The design itself was based from the pose from a reference photo. I liked the force perspective that I want to get better at.
The design of the bikini was from Ranma’s usual clothes, just in bikini form (I still wonder if I should have designed it in a better way). I wanted to play around with water reflections this time. It’s still a bit new to me so it was a bit tough deciding where it made sense to add blue and green hues.
A shame I wasn’t able to finish it before summer ended though…
I’ll try to do more paintings this month along with the daily drawings for Inktober, but we’ll see.

When I saw cactus as the prompt I was reminded of Togemon from Digimon. I haven’t seen the anime since I saw the dubbed version that was aired on tv back in the day. I remember really liking it, I wonder if it still holds up? I wanted to add some action lines around Togemon but through Krita after I finished inking it. But I haven’t tried that out yet so I don’t know how yet.

First day of October today. This means it’s time to once again do the monthly challenge. I smudged the drawing a couple of times. It’s obvious that I’m a bit rusty, but it didn’t take me long to get in the groove again. Was busy so I didn’t have as much time to really work on it today, but I managed to get it done. I’m hoping to do more than just line arts this year, but we’ll see if time and other circumstances allows it.

I’m currently working on the actual painting. A shame I couldn’t have it ready a couple of days ago to fit with the summer theme.

We’re finally at fall, so to commemorate this is the first fall painting this year.

This is the rough draft for the beach background. I haven’t done a Ranma piece in a while hence the choice.

For today’s drawing it’s Serena Motola’s line art. Now drawing looks more refined and the freckles definitely looks better when I thinned the lines and made them lighter as well. I think for sure I want to try a flat painting style for this one. I’ll try to focus more on the color scheme.
