Ranma Leaning in Pose

The design itself was based from the pose from a reference photo. I liked the force perspective that I want to get better at.

The design of the bikini was from Ranma’s usual clothes, just in bikini form (I still wonder if I should have designed it in a better way). I wanted to play around with water reflections this time. It’s still a bit new to me so it was a bit tough deciding where it made sense to add blue and green hues.

A shame I wasn’t able to finish it before summer ended though…

I’ll try to do more paintings this month along with the daily drawings for Inktober, but we’ll see.

Ranma vs Ryoga line art

I have decided to transfer the traditional line art drawing I made a year ago. Next I have to figure out what painting style I want to use.

Akane Side Profile

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.

Hasta la proxima,

Akane Side Profile

Originally I only had Akane but felt it needed a bit more so I decided to also add in Ranma and Ryoga.

I’ve been uploading to a couple of sites but I stopped uploading to Twitter when I found out they would use images for AI, I also started getting a bunch of NFT and spam from Artstation so I have decided to also stop uploading there first. On the plus side, at least it’s two less things to update.

Inktober 2024 Day 21 Ranma and Shampoo

There was this idea that I had for a Ranma drawing and I finally decided to draw it today. I have also been wanting to draw Shampoo for a while and figured out a way to work her into the drawing. Because of the amount of details and whatnot, I decided to use a large paper this time.

Ranma thumbs up Re:do

On my first attempt I wanted to emulate the anime style coloring, but I was still learning about colors and just using digital art programs.

You can see it here:

It’s pretty rough…

I debated whether to go with the style I’m currently working on or a flatter anime style. I like both so it was a hard choice. In the end I went for something in between. This time I wanted to give some summer vibes.

I’ve been reading the manga, there is so much I want to draw and paint…

Help me reach more people, like and share if you like my work.

Ranma in the Sunset

Line art from inktober 2021 day 3.

I wasn’t too sure what to do with the background, but as I was looking through my screenshot references I came upon a couple of a sunset that I wanted to replicate.

Reference here:

I was wondering whether to change the colors of the outfit from the reference of Kyôko Koizumi:

But I quite liked this color combination so I decided to keep it. As for the color of the sneakers, I was playing around with the idea of various colors like purple but I ended up with this black accent ones.
