This is another attempt at a past painting. For now here is the background.

Marin’s Room Background RE:do
It’s getting Hot line art
It’s getting really hot, it’s that time of the year…
It feels like an oven in my room. I decided to pull the trigger on an A/C. Hopefully that will ease this summer’s heat.

Comfy Usagi V2
I decided to make another attempt at this Usagi painting that I did back in 2021.
Looking back at it again, it looks completely different. I actually had this painting “finished” a couple of weeks ago. But after coming back to it I noticed various areas that I could continue to work on. It’s always great to come back to it with fresh eyes.

Haniel (Marin) and Gojo Line Art
I’m really enjoying the complicated emotions being showcased by Gojo. I wonder if he will become more assertive.

Frieren and Himmel Lake Meeting
After weeks, I finally get to upload this painting of Frieren and Himmel. I was more worried about getting the right look of the lake and the reflections correctly. But I think I managed to do that. I wonder if I did the right thing making Himmel’s cape capable of covering his head. In the anime I never saw him do it, but all the amount of fabric makes it seem so. Which is why I decided to take some artistic liberties.
I wanted to create a fantastical feel with the setting, color and brush strokes. I’m getting close to what I’m imagining but I haven’t quite fine tuned it. Nothing I can do except to keep painting.
On another note, I am getting tempted to start collecting figures. Not only because they look so cool and beautiful but they would help out a lot as reference material since I could study them from different angles. Perhaps in the future.
Also, since I recently finished reading Dungeon Meshi. It’s time I read the Frieren manga. Can’t believe I forgot to do that.

Laios went too far Line Art
About one or two weeks ago I finally got the chance to read Dungeon Meshi, after my brothers both high recommended it.
I loved it. I can’t believe I already finished it. I really loved the world and the characters. (I’m also currently watching the anime, so far they have done the series justice).
This line art was done after I read through the ghosts section. I can’t believe Laios would say something like that. But having read the whole series now… Yeah this guy definitely has said and done many things that I think I can incorporate to this piece in a future update.
Till then.

Bulmas Delivery Service V2
Looking at past works, I really wanted to give “Bulma’s Delivery Service” another try. It was so close and yet was still in a very rough state. Some areas were tilted and the background painting was also in need of another attempt with my current skills. I loved working on this painting again. The original artist for the Kiki’s poster is amazing.

Airi Suzuki Ray Kimono Line Art
Today’s drawing is of Airi wearing the Kimono from the latest Ray Magazine cover.
I love using Corel Painter for painting, but when it comes to rough drafts, line art and flat colors Clip Studio Paint is the way to go. It’s amazing how the feel of the stylus feels when I change from pencil to pen.

Meimi Spring
It’s time to reveal the main subject that corresponds to this background. It’s Meimi Tamura. The reference I used is from her music video Butai. I really love the song and music video it self. There are many scenes I want to give a try in painting but that will be for another time.
Here is the music video, do check it out:
We have come to the end of Spring, my second favorite season. I managed to make a few seasonal paintings to celebrate but I had more ideas that i didn’t get to do this time. Hopefully I will manage to do better next year. Next paintings will be about the Summer (my least favorite season due to the heat).

Yoriko Dôguchi Flowing Wind Line Art
From time to time Youtube recomends some pretty cool stuff. Last week I was recomended this video by a channel named Zulfian:
It’s a fan music video for a film called Do Re Mi Fa, or also known as Bumkin Soup. Haven’t seen the movie yet, but the edit and scenes used are really beautiful. There are quite a few scenes that I want to draw and paint. It’s just so aesthetic.
After a long time, I made some line art. I started with a more realist style but wanted to also try a more anime/manga style, so I did both.
I still haven’t decided on what I would do regarding coloring/painting it. Hopefully I would have seen the movie by then.

Usagi’s room background
For some reason this week I wasn’t able to make any new art. Luckily I have a couple of paintings that I have ready but I like having a good long buffer so that I can keep uploading weekly. I just don’t like eating into it in case something comes up and I won’t have time to work on new paintings/drawings. Hopefully by next week I will have cooled down.
For today’s upload it is a RE:do background of Usagi’s room.

Mai Shiranui vs Chun Li V2
Here is an updated version of Mai and Chun Li. I originally wanted them to be surrounded by Sakura trees. My original idea was a bit different but because of the pose I had to change it to this patio one. But because it felt overwhelming when I first painted it, I left the flowers out. Surprisingly it wasn’t that hard. On top of that, I softened a few areas on both Mai and Chun Li while also adjusting the tone of the whole painting. Personally I think it looks much better now.
