Inktober 2026 day 29 Full Moon

I outlined the moon and the grass with a light ink wash. Then after having it all painted came filling out the dark sky. I was originally using one of the brush pens but the full page was streaky and also time consuming. Luckily I remembered I bought a super black ink that I hadn’t tried out since I bought it years ago. Painting without dilution worked perfectly well when I covered the whole area. The ink from the brush pen is still darker. I wonder what the difference is? Luckily the wash covered the first attempt so the didn’t clash.

Inktober 2026 day 26 Shin Gojira

I decided to once again draw Godzilla. It’s funny because it took me two times to watch Shin Godzilla to have it as one of my top favorite designs. The other two I love are the 90s and the millenium design. Thinking about it now I haven’t really painted them recently at all. I should remedy that.

Hasta la proxima,

Momoko Tsugunaga ink painting colorized

I recently saw a video of this other artist using photoshop’s color balance ability to change the color of a black and white painting. So I wanted to try it out. I’ve been craving to do another Momoko art piece so I used this chance to do so. I first painted Momoko using ink and my brushes. When I was content with the final painting I then went ahead and tried out this method. It definitely works, although maybe my painting wasn’t defined as well since some sections were too light and I had to add some more layers to get the right values. Overall I’m quite impressed, although I much prefer to just paint in colors right from the start so I can learn the process better for when I make future paintings later on. But at least now I know new technique just in case.

You can see both versions if you click on either pixiv or twitter.
