"A Hopeless Dream Chaser"
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.

This is both a study and a RE:do of an old painting I did that had potential but was definitely left very rough. I remember struggling back in the day, but now it was very relaxing giving it another go.

I felt that the previous version I had looked off but I didn’t know why. At some point I got a comment that pointed out the arm and sure enough that’s what it was. My brother said that I should go back to basics, maybe that’s what he meant.

I watched Oshi no Ko quite a few weeks ago. I loved it. By far my favorite character is Kana. I really want to make make more paintings of her.
The weather is finally starting to change and so are the colors, even if ever so slightly where I live. I wanted to portray a cozy atmosphere with this painting. Thus the colors and location I chose.
In terms of the painting I liked playing with different lighting colors that happened due to the light sources coming from all around her. Lately I have been debating whether to keep the big anime eyes, or making them more realistic. Personally I like both but often do wonder if my art style works better with more realistic proportions.
The window looked a bit too simple and empty so I decided to use the skill I learned from painting Momochi a while ago and add some raindrops. I think it’s a nice touch.
By the end I decided to make the painting into a sequence.
Here is the process:

Summer is almost over, finally. It’s time for cozy artwork. This background did take me a while. Especially so because I had to plan out the dimensions and furnishings. I would say planning it out took the longest. Despite the large amount of details, such as the bread, once I had it all planned out it moved along quite smoothly.

This is a painting for the drawing I did for inktober of this year (day 30). I wanted to do a parody of Kiki’s Delivery Service with Bulma as Kiki. Most of it uses the same style and colors but I incorporated elements from Dragon ball. Such changes are substituting Jiji for Tama, changing the font to Capsule Corp in the window reflection, using a mitsubishi car transporting Muten Roshi and Goku and Lunch as the woman walking in the street. Colors aren’t quite the same but look similar enough. I quite like how it turned out.
What do you guys think?
