"A Hopeless Dream Chaser"
It’s been a while since I last drew Momochi. This time I drew her in her maid outfit. I used a combination of brush pen, maru pen and g pen. I messed up accidentally on the outfit so I had to do the same on the other side.

I originally tried painting this drawing back in 2020. To keep with the theme of the original attempt, I decided to go with a flat style. Though it would have been interesting to try it with my current style.
I was quite content with the simpler painting but I wanted to add in some lighting to really emphasize that summer vibe.
Original attempt in 2020:

In order to continue to test out Krita I decided to do a study of Momochi using one of her photos from her digital photobook vol. 77. I was at first using a really scuffed reference photo until I remembered to search for a high quality version.
The oil brush is still not quite there yet but the blender tool is the best I’ve tried so far. I just wish I had the ability of using the sargent brush in Krita. I really miss it.

Line art for my Momochi RE:do. The main changes were the head proportions, hands and the face structure.

I have a couple of art that I made years ago, I think it is time to give it another go with my current abilities.

I decided to turn the rough draft of Momochi into line art.

Rough draft of Momochi. I have been tweaking my brush as I have been painting. It still isn’t quite there yet, but it is getting better. One thing I do prefer in Krita is the blender. It softens and merges the colors the best way out of all the art programs I’ve tried.

Happy New Year.
I was getting worried I wouldn’t be able to draw anything today. Today was jam packed with things to do. Hopefully this year is better than last year… One can only wish and and survive I guess.
It’s been a while but I really felt like drawing Momochi again. It was a relaxing almost meditative process.

Was really short on time today and I decided to also draw in a sofa with a lot of details… As much as I would have liked to hatch and ink the drawing, I’d rather take my time at a later date instead of rushing through it. Sadly I messed up Momochi’s left eye (on our right) so I had to edit it with the Posca marker. For some reason my thinner pen (Pentel Energel) wasn’t working so I had to draw it all with the R-2 Precision pen. Luckily it’s possible to control the thickness with pressure. It was really fun drawing Momochi again.

I was hoping to upload it on the 23rd but sadly things didn’t work out. This will mark the last Summer painting of 2025. Now I’m planning to do some Autumn paintings and also do Inktober again this year.

Here is the pencil line art of the rough draft I uploaded last week.

Recently decided to upgrade my webcam so that I could do more traditional art. I decided to draw Momochi to test it out. I decided to draw a summer based drawing to commemorate the soon to end summer season.
