Ranma Leaning in Pose

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.

Inktober 2026 day 02 Cactus Togemon

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.

Inktober 2026 day 01 Apple Hex Girl

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.

Hasta la proxima,

Serena Motola Study Line Art

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.

Beach waves and sparkles background

I’ve been slacking a bit… Kinda hard to concentrate with everything that is going on…

This will be the background to a future piece that I hope to finish soon. I’ll upload the line art for it next week. As for this background I wanted to work with the shallow part of the beach which will include the way things look underwater. It was definitely a bit tough to get the idea, but I think I have it mostly there. Perhaps I’ll change things in the upcoming days but in the end the subject will be the focus so who knows how that will change things, or not.

Hasta la proxima,

Guts Sword Strike Line Art

The armor has so many parts that it takes a while to figure it out depending on the angle and pose. It might not be a wrong idea to buy a pose-able figure. I know that Guts’ hair is a bit shorter but I wanted it to be flowing as he was ready to slash.

Frieren Different Angle Attempt

This has been sitting waiting. Looking at it now I’ve been wanting to do it by just painting without line art. But thinking about it, this was just a practice piece so it’s fine as is. I’ll put some effort on new art instead.

Serena Motola Study Rough Draft

One of my favorite artists Little Thunder has a very distinctive style. At some point I saw various showcases of her process. I noticed that she used a model various times, that being Serena Motola. Thinking back it’s been years since I’ve wanted to draw or paint her. I can’t believe it took me that long to finally have a go. I went a little too hard on the freckles so it doesn’t look quite right. I made them a little too dark. It’s obvious I have no experience with freckles yet.

Hasta la proxima,

Puddle Background

I have some other paintings that are not ready yet so I decided to do a study for today’s painting. This time a puddle after a rain storm. I struggled a bit with this one. There are translucent areas but there are also areas that have reflections. On top of that there are a lot of pebbles and other organic branches and leaves. It wasn’t quite working at the beginning but as I kept adding details it all came together.

Hasta la proxima,
