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.

Rei Ayanami Sweater line art

Line art originally done for Inktober 2022 day 7.

Can be seen here:

I didn’t like how I originally drew it, so before I inked/painted it I wanted to fix a couple of things. Mainly the face. It’s amazing how a couple of changes could make such a big differences.

Shizuku Kuroe

Line art originally done for inktober 2022 day 5.

I’ll be trying out different painting styles with this year’s batch of line art. The background is of a photo I took of a catholic building back in the day and used the screen tone filter. Just trying something new (and didn’t feel like painting a background this time).

Inktober 2022 15 Syaoran Li

Day 15. Today’s drawing is of Syaoran Li. This time I only drew the line art. I couldn’t find a name to Syaoran’s fighting style, though it’s of course Chinese based. What I do know is that Syaoran likes to point his index and middle fingers so I made sure to incorporate that into his pose. Thinking about it now, maybe I should have put his sword on his back. While drawing I was also thinking of putting an ofuda in between his fingers, but I kept to my original vision of hand to hand combat. Man, Card Captor Sakura sure brings back memories.

Inktober 2022 14 Killua

Day 14. To complement yesterday’s drawing, today I drew Killua. I had to draw this twice since I forgot to draw in his long sleeves. So I lost a bit of time today. This time I decided to hatch instead of ink the drawing. At first I was thinking of doing both, but I was interested to check out how it looked on it’s own.

Both drawings were actually influenced by poses done by Karin Miyamoto. She has a lot of interesting poses, and since she cosplays as guy characters as well this helps me out a lot.
