"A Hopeless Dream Chaser"
Although I am working on some new work, I also want to RE:do some previous attempts with my current skills. Now that I a have caught up to Berserk, I want to draw and paint so many things from the series. But this also means I can work on previous attempts that need some work.
This time I decided to go back to a Morda 2020 inktober drawing.

Wow, can’t believe I forgot to use the brush pen. As soon as I started using it things flowed so much easier and faster. Aside from areas that required finer lines. I’ll probably be incorporating it into the next drawings. Sadly I didn’t wait for some of the ink to finish drying and smudged it a bit on the face. Luckily I managed to fix it a bit with an eraser.
Apparently Berserk will be back later this month. Can’t wait if true.

I felt that the Iori painting I made back in August 2022 had potential, but was lacking. With one more year of experience I decided to give it another go. Overall I think it looks much better now. I’ve actually started to record my prcesses, but I need to find a way to edit it in a way that isn’t boring to watch. Just a speed paint no longer works if I actually want people to watch my videos. I currently have four paintings recorded. This is the only one that is a RE:do though (for now).
The bonus painting is of me getting flung, that’s my current mood…

Today is a simple drawing of Guts in his Berserker Armor. It’s seriously one of my favorite power ups that has it’s repercussions in order to make it more interesting.
Hasta mañana,

The original idea was to have Guts in a frozen scenery, but as I was painting the background I decided to add in Casca and Puck. This scene would be taking place right after their encounter with Griffith and Zodd, I was wondering if adding more layers would slow down my tablet but it had no problems what so ever. I guess it was just the canvas size that was giving me problems…

I drew this way back in May of this year as a tribute to Kentaro Miura. Looking at it again though, I wasn’t too happy with how thin Guts looked. So I fixed that digitally with Photoshop. I ten added some more hatching and some screentone.

This was originally drawn for Inktober 2020 day 31, but I wasn’t happy with the proportions.
It can be seen here:
I fixed those using PhotoShop and fixed a couple of areas. The hatching was done using Clip Studio.
Skulll Knight’s story was already sad after seeing the brief flash back from one of the latest chapters. But it just got even more sad because we won’t know any more about him due to the tragic loss of Kentaro Miura. We will always have to wonder what his ultimate goals and journey would entail.

This is an edited version of an older piece I made. After about a year of making some type of artwork for every weekday, I noticed that many of them were too rough and unfinished… Every once in a while I will be going back to some of them and see if I can refine them.

I was caught off guard when my brother told me the news of Kentaro Miura. I remember people joking that this could happen before the story ended, but I guess that’s just how life is. Ever fleeting and unpredictable. His art, story telling and characters were truly inspiring to me. They were a level that I hope to reach someday. Thank your for all these years, allowing us to see and learn from your work. Although you may be physically gone, your legacy will forever be remembered.

I have been planning painting the other Eva units when they go berserk. This time though, I went for a complete digital painting. Rewatching the scene when Asuka activates the berserk mode is quite heart wrenching in all aspects. Specially since even then, she was completely overpowered and wrecked. Even now it’s hard watching her suffering that much. The end of Evangelion version is quite different from the rebuilds which I could also paint at some point, Although I would probably opt for a complete body since it has very interesting angles and poses. In this portrayal of the berserk scene in the End of Evangelion, I did a what if Asuka could over power the lance and destroy the mass produced Evas.
This painting was also done using the Real Tapered Wet Flat Brush, just as was done with Airi’s painting. Except for the background which was done using the Tapered Oils brush.

Today’s last drawing for inktober and for Halloween is Skull Knight. Although it makes perfect sense, it’s still sad to see that someone else also suffered because of the God Hand. It’s poetic that both the king and Guts donned the Berserker Armor, which also means that the armor is really old as well. I wonder what the coming chapters will bring us.
Inktober is finally over! Happy Halloween everyone. Stay safe.

Today’s prompt is float. Since we are nearing Halloween and the prompt is float, I decided to draw a witch. After a little bit of thought I decided to draw Morda from Berserk. I wonder is she will be joining the party once they leave the island? It would be strange is she didn’t. This time I decided to just go ahead and come up with a pose from my mind. When I was done, I noticed that it was similar to what was drawn in chapter 361. I guess that image stayed in mind.
