"A Hopeless Dream Chaser"
Today’s drawing is of Airi wearing the Kimono from the latest Ray Magazine cover.
I love using Corel Painter for painting, but when it comes to rough drafts, line art and flat colors Clip Studio Paint is the way to go. It’s amazing how the feel of the stylus feels when I change from pencil to pen.

From time to time Youtube recomends some pretty cool stuff. Last week I was recomended this video by a channel named Zulfian:
It’s a fan music video for a film called Do Re Mi Fa, or also known as Bumkin Soup. Haven’t seen the movie yet, but the edit and scenes used are really beautiful. There are quite a few scenes that I want to draw and paint. It’s just so aesthetic.
After a long time, I made some line art. I started with a more realist style but wanted to also try a more anime/manga style, so I did both.
I still haven’t decided on what I would do regarding coloring/painting it. Hopefully I would have seen the movie by then.

For some reason I had the urge to draw Komi. It’s been a while since I last catched up with Komi’s manga. Last I remembered they went to New York I think? I think it’s time I go back to reading it.
I have a number of paintings waiting to be uploaded but I need to space them out between background and the finished painting. Which helps me rest my eyes on them so that I can give them a look over and edit as needed. Plus I really should do some more drawings and line art.
Because they are simpler to do I can create some time buffers so that I can practice and work on longer projects. My brother was telling me that I should do some traditional art, and I do want to. But it takes longer so I have been neglecting it lately. It’s sad just seeing my Nicker Poster colors cake up.
We’ll see.

A quick drawing, but only the line art today.

It’s getting really hot where I live… I can’t wait for summer to finally be over and enter my favorite season.
In the mean time, here is an update to my Android 18 drawing. Here she is inked.

Today’s drawing is of the two rival poster girls, Mai Shiranui and Chun Li. Chest vs Thighs. I’ve had this idea for number of years. I did a really rough background for it back in 2021 but I wasn’t quite ready so it lay dormant till now. This time I did the line art first and will probably end up using a different background this time.

I have had this idea for a couple of years and now , I can’t believe it’s taken this long for me to finally draw it. This will also be inked and painted. But that will be uploaded at a later date.

Here is a some line art of Tomoyo Harada holding a Toshiba Sugar RT-SW7 boom box. I used a magazine advert as reference. I can’t believe it, but this might be my first time drawing her. Strange because I have so many pieces I had planned for a couple of years now.

Way back in 2018 for Inktober day 11 I drew Athena Asamiya which looked really rough. Here is a RE:do of it. This time I went for a softer more curvy style. I made the shorts a bit smaller than the original design (they pull up higher up to he bellybutton), I fixed that on the digital line art.

Really like Iko-chan’s outfit.

I recently saw this insane edutainment video that was released back in 1989 named “How to Get… Revenge!” with Linda Blair (the lady from “The Exorcist”). It’s crazy. Wonder if anyone was evil enough to follow their suggestions? What made it even more surreal was Linda’s fun attitude throughout the whole video.

Here is the process of a future painting.
