Not sure if I will finish it this year or just focus on other paintings. This is a RE:do of a past painting. I should probably focus on some Christmas paintings and artwork.

I made some last minute touchups to it just before uploading. It was waiting since before October. I wonder is anyone can tell what school this is?

Background for a future painting. For some reason I had some fond memories return to me which led to the creation of the idea for this whole piece.

It is now finally time to upload my color painting of Meimi Tamura. I’m glad I waited on uploading it because I made a few touches today. I think it’s time to read books about color theory so that I don’t just rely on instinct. Like last time, I also want to edit a video of the process for this painting. I’ll probably do a short and eventually figure out what I want to do for the longer video.

Now that it’s Spring, it is finally time to showcase the painting of the main love triangle (Akane, Ranma, Ryoga). While painting I was wondering what sort of style I would go for. I’m always split between flat anime styles or more realistic painterly styles. In the end I went for an anime style. After that I decided to add some lighting glare that really brought the background and the subjects together. One thing I leaned from this painting was that it looked better when I added separate lighting for each character on top of the main glare that covers the whole painting.

This will be the background for a certain painting that I will upload in the future. Surprisingly I kept having trouble with something so simple. I kept painting and repainting both this background and the actual subject. All I’ll say is that I’ve come to really like the sponge brush.

Here is the final painting, there are two versions. One with lighting and one without. And despite the effort I put into the background, most of it is covered up. Hehe.

This will be the background for next weeks painting, the line art is already up so you can already guess who the subject is. I really wanted to play with the lighting.

For some reason this week I wasn’t able to make any new art. Luckily I have a couple of paintings that I have ready but I like having a good long buffer so that I can keep uploading weekly. I just don’t like eating into it in case something comes up and I won’t have time to work on new paintings/drawings. Hopefully by next week I will have cooled down.
For today’s upload it is a RE:do background of Usagi’s room.

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.

This background is to recreate a scene that I really like from an anime that I just started watching. But just copying the scene would be no good, so I decided to at least change the vantage point. With that said, I have seen landscape paintings that are done in a cube or in a cross section. I really like the aesthetics of it, so I decided to give it a try for this one. It was actually pretty fun to paint.
