Akane Side Profile

Now that it’s Spring, it is finally time to showcase the painting of the main love triangle (Akane, Ranma, Ryoga). While painting I was wondering what sort of style I would go for. I’m always split between flat anime styles or more realistic painterly styles. In the end I went for an anime style. After that I decided to add some lighting glare that really brought the background and the subjects together. One thing I leaned from this painting was that it looked better when I added separate lighting for each character on top of the main glare that covers the whole painting.

Lighting background

This will be the background for a certain painting that I will upload in the future. Surprisingly I kept having trouble with something so simple. I kept painting and repainting both this background and the actual subject. All I’ll say is that I’ve come to really like the sponge brush.

Sayumi Ski Goggles

Here is the final painting, there are two versions. One with lighting and one without. And despite the effort I put into the background, most of it is covered up. Hehe.

Snowed Mountain background

I was just about to upload the final painting and completely forgot that I had yet to upload the background. Looking at it now, there are areas that I could work on the details but most of it will be covered anyway. Having said that, playing around with shapes and different planes/layers.

Intangible Tangible Rough Draft

Recently one of Meimi’s song became popular in TikTok. Hopefully this will bring in some new fans.

I still haven’t decided on how I will edit my videos but here is a short of the process for this painting.

Kana Arima Cat Sweater with Mem-cho

I finally finished the Oshi no Ko manga a couple of weeks ago. Personally I liked the ending. But that’s all I’ll say so as to not spoil anything.

On another note, I’ve recently been playing around with lighting effects. These really change my paintings and help out in ways that would take me too long to figure out and paint by hand. I wanted to learn how to do it by hand first though to build the fundamentals. Although I still have a ways to go but it should be ok to try new tools.

Leaning Makima Line Art

Working on various other drawings and paintings, but I decided last minute to work on the line art for Makima. Although I still haven’t decided on how I would go about painting her. Although I also want to do some black and white art as well.

Frieren Winter Sky

I finally finished the painting of Frieren. The original drawing was made for last year’s inktober for day 13.

You can see it here:

I decided to change a couple of details not just for Frieren but also for the background since the last time I uploaded it. I just finished it at the time of uploading, so hopefully I won’t regret not giving it some time to rest on my mind.

Hasta la proxima,
