Inktober 2024 Day 05 Binoculars

I started re-watching Psych. Man I love this show. Funnily enough in the first episode they were using binoculars so I decided to draw one of the scenes. Everything is traditionally done but I messed up Gus’s skin by using a really dry Copic marker and in the wrong tone. Thinking back, it might have been better to use an ink wash. I was also contemplating just hatching it all out. but that would be an insane amount of lines to try out some of the ideas I had. So I had to make a choice, redraw it all and hatch it all again or just edit it digitally with Clip Studio Paint. I opted for doing it digitally. Although if I was smarter I should have played around with it digitally first before committing to just doing something irreversible. One other mishap was on Shawn’s hair where I was careless and rested my finger on some fresh ink. Hopefully I won’t be as tired tomorrow.

Hasta la proxima,

Inktober 2024 Day 04

It’s day 4, I wasn’t too happy with yesterday’s hatching so I was a bit worried for today’s drawing. I decided to draw my own prompt today. I have started watching Omusubi, an NHK drama. The only reason I knew about it was because of Meimi Tamura. I was a bit worried that her role would be limited but luckily she has been a prominent supporting character. I hope it stays that way because her character has been hilarious. I hope this opens more roles for her. Though I selfishly want to hear new songs from her as well.

This time I went for simpler hatching which I’ve noticed works better. I’m also playing around more with what gets more details and what areas would benefit from empty spaces.

Hasta la proxima,

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.

Inktober 2023 Day 8 Orca

I wanted to try hatching today. This is still rough, But with some planning and more experience, this style can work. As for the subject, I was reminded again of the Orcas that were sinking ships so I decided to draw one today.

Hasta mañana,

Kinku Akina Nakamori COLOR

Here’s Akina’s painting but in color this time. Decided to go with a red theme this time. Looking at it now, it might look cool with some font displaying the name of the song (Kinku).

Kinku Akina Nakamori Screen tone

It would be a shame if I didn’t do more with this drawing. So decided to keep practicing with screen tone. The screen tone gives a new look for sure. I like both versions though. A simple black and white just looks so clean and pops. Adding screen tone though allows one to add more depth and transition between values. So if used correctly it can really enhance a drawing.

Airi Suzuki Nap

This is a study of Airi Suzuki. I want to do more artwork of her to celebrate her 20th anniversary. For this drawing I want to practice different coloring styles. For the line art, I went for thin lines which I liked how it looked when doing Inktober this year. The inking in the hair is too dark, it doesn’t give the image of it being a lighter brown. Perhaps I should just make lighter hatching. Perhaps at a later date.

Inktober 2022 11 kid Goku

Day 11. This time I chose to draw kid Goku. Yesterday’s pixiv theme was winking, hence today’s drawing. I made a version that felt off, so last minute I decided to redraw it again with different proportions. It’s amazing how such small changes can make a drawing look good or somehow off. I was thinking of adding Roshi’s sunglasses but that would have covered most of Goku’s face. I might give that a try at some point in the future.

Hasta la proxima,

Inktober 2022 06 Lynn Minmay

Day 6 of Inktober. This time I decided to draw Lynn Minmay. I saw this cute photo of Akina Nakmori talking in the phone that I thought would work very well. This time I decided to to add more hatching. For the hair I decided to follow the flow of the hair while for the jacket I decided to go for a more stylized hatching technique.

Everything was going well, but I did mess up twice this time. The maru pen got stuck and sent droplets of ink all around the left top corner of the drawing and then I touched the ink and smudged on the right hand sleeve. I uploaded a cleaned up version, but in the spirit of inktober I have also uploaded the original version as well.

reference used:

As a side note, when I uploaded my drawings to Pinterest I got some Akina Nakamori photos as suggested similar pictures. I wonder if it had to do with what I had in the description, a recent search or …

Hasta la proxima,
