Here is the line art of Morda. Looking back to the original attempt in 2020, it’s night and day.

Morda Laying on her Broom Line Art
Morda Laying on her Broom Rough Draft
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.

Frolicking through flowers Red Riding Mina
When I painted the flower background I decided that I wanted to have someone frolicking through the fields. I didn’t really have anyone in mind. Then while playing Battle Cats I came to the realization that I have been playing the game for about a decade now. That’s crazy. I also can’t believe I haven’t really done much art of it either. I felt Red Riding Mina would be a good option since she fits the scenery and she is always frolicking. I could have just had her in the painting but decided to also add in her animal companions as well. I also thought it would be fun to add in a cat in the foreground.
One of the problems though when I was planning where to add in Mina I noticed that I made the scene to cropped so I decided to add in more to the surroundings… if you look at the background I uploaded you will know what I mean. Hopefully I get to make more Battle Cats artwork in the future.

Inktober 2024 Day 03 Boots
Had some ideas of what to draw today but decided to just draw the Alien boots. Something nice and simple isn’t so bad every once in a while.

Lucrezia Noin by the Balcony
As mentioned last time when I uploaded the background, this has been a painting that I had planned months, years ago? I’m glad I waited this long to make it though, now that my skills are at this level. I was contemplating putting Zechs Merquise in the veranda. On top of that, I recently got the idea to add Releena next to Noin. Perhaps next year.
I believe this is the first painting or even drawing of Noin, which is surprising since I really like her character. Much like G Gundam, Gundam Wing was my introduction to the Gundam fandom. If time permits I want to make some more Gundam Wing paintings.

2B Pose RE:do
After being left waiting for a couple of weeks now, here is another RE:do with a painting I tried to do way back in 2018. At this time I was still learning to do digital. Even then I had already decided that Corel Painter was my preferred art program. As opposed to last time, I added a background. But even then it felt like it was still a bit lonely so I added 2B’s pod. I was a bit worried that it would be too intricate. Surprisingly it went by much smoother . I’m so glad I decided to add it.
Here is the original painting:

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

Kuga Trigger On
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.

Bulma and Goku Aliens lineart
It’s weird, drawing is way slower digitally for me. For some reason this drawing took a long time to make and then clean up… Perhaps for line art I should just draw traditionally from now on and digitize afterword.
This is a follow-up to the drawing I made of Goku also parodying Aliens.
It can be seen here:
I feel like redoing it at some point.
As for this drawing, I was thinking of following the reference photo but in the end thought that would be boring. So I changed it to make Goku prepared to fight. I originally had him wearing his Kame uniform, but decided to use Newt’s outfit instead. As I was looking through the movie I noticed that the gun in the poster was probably a prototype prop before they settled on the actual guns or something. That’s when I had to come to the realization that I would have to change that as well. Luckily I managed to find good reference models online. I was thinking of adding the dual gun setup but for now I settled with only the M240 Incinerator Unit. I don’t know why, but that took a while. I seriously need to learn what the method to draw straight lines is digitally because doing it by hand has me redoing lines over and over. Next time I should also trace over the completed line art because going in and cleaning it takes way too long…

Ai no Dangan Momoko animation 1st
Took me about three weeks… but I finally have the first pass of animating my drawing of Momochi in her “Ai no Dangan” outfit. There are a couple of things I need to still edit, I also feel that making it twice as fast will help. Then there is the whole stretching and compressing when Momochi moves to make it more dynamic. There’s still so much I have to learn.

Ai no Dangan Momoko
It took almost a year, but Momochi’s Ai no Dangan drawing has been painted. I wasn’t planning on making a background but as I was working I wanted to play around with some filters and learned I could recreate a screen panel so I played around with two versions of it. At some point though I might do something else with the background.
I made the love bullet first but felt it was a bit lonely. I then played around with an aura around it which I feel fits. It also reminds me of the Spirit Gun from YuYu Hakusho.
