Today’s drawing is of Karin Miyamoto from a photo of last year.
Might have to change the maru pen just like the g pen. The ink isn’t coming out properly and it’s skipping too.

I was running out of paper so I bought some new one that was made specifically for ink and pens. I decided to try it out for todays drawing. The paper is quite smooth, I like it. When I get the chance I want to really try it out with my dip pens. On other papers it would cut the fibers and lift them up, so I wonder if that problem will not occur with this paper.
This time it’s a study of Karin Miyamoto using a photo from her instagram.

Even in the last minutes I was making some last minute touch ups to the hues and values. I also went back to the window to repaint all the raindrops since they were too big. I should have noticed that before when I painted the background but it became really apparent when I painted in Karin. Speaking of Karin, despite my instincts I tried adding in more blue/green hues to the shadow areas on her skin. I’m still rough but it definitely made the colors pop.

Perhaps I will come back to it. But for now, here is Kuga and Replica.

Karin Miyamoto had posted some photos of her cosplaying and buying goods from World Trigger. About two weeks ago I finally decided to give it a shot and have already caught up (with the manga). I was actually surprised, the world building, battle system and character interactions are great. Check it out if you get a chance. Kuga is freakin cool, his adaptive fight style always gives me a surprise.

Day 25. I really love the mv for “Pop Music” by Juice=Juice. The homage to Matsuda Seiko was such a fun touch. Ever since it came out I wanted to make a art piece for it. In this instance I chose the album cover. Since I’m back from my trip I can start inking my drawings again.
Since Halloween is now fast approaching, I should make some themed drawing from here on out.

By pure luck I managed to see Karin’s Instagram live celebrating her 23rd birthday. It’s funny that at the end she messed up the finger positions and was accidently showing 32. I debated making two more pieces showcasing this but I ran out of time. I wonder why the videos get mirrored? I’ve noticed that many photos and videos are in this format.
Happy birthday Karin!

Happy Halloween everyone! Although by this time it’s pretty much already over. Hopefully you guys had a great time. Today also marks the last day of Inktober. I got out somewhat early today from my other job so I decided to make multiple drawings for this special day. I was having a hard time deciding who to draw for the last day and just decided that there was no reason to just choose one. So I made three instead. I was actually going to make five… but that was pushing it.
For today, I decided to draw Karin Miyamoto in a maid outfit (super cute), Airi in her Sailor Moon cosplay (I’ve been craving to draw her for such a long time now) and Momochi in the outfit she used for the 2016 NTV Halloween Live event.
Didn’t have time to hatch or ink them today but I at least managed to finish the line art.
In terms of Inktober anyway, see you guys next year. Hopefully you guys enjoyed my drawings this month.

Reference used was from the Hello! Project Digital Books vol. 162. I drew this way back in July. I decided to wait and come back to it a bit later. I ended up editing some of the line art and lightened some sections of it.

Recently Karin uploaded an instagram video of her taking a self portrait which was really cute and funny which I wanted to recreate in pixel form. She looks like an 80s boss with her outfit and pose (a fun one).
