"A Hopeless Dream Chaser"
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

After two years I decided to give this painting another try. Most of if was left intact surprisingly. But certain parts were simplified. What I wanted to focus on were the eyes and expressions. they were really goofy before. Misaka’s head position I felt would have a stronger effect if I had her focus on the chocolate out of embarrassment. Saten I feel would be the best friend to learn how to cook anything from. Although she would tease Misaka a bit while doing it.

A certain painting felt a bit lonely so I decided to add in Mem-cho. Here’s the line art and rough draft.

This background is a bit rough but I don’t need it to be too detailed once I put in the subjects.

This will be the background for next weeks painting, the line art is already up so you can already guess who the subject is. I really wanted to play with the lighting.
Hasta la proxima,

There’s a couple of new brushes I downloaded for Clip Studio which of course included pens. There is one that emulates translucent ink which I wanted to try out. It’s pretty realistic. I like it.
Now that I’ve done the line art, I cleaned up the lines and finalized sections that I was still planning out. The next step is figuring out how I want to paint it.
