"A Hopeless Dream Chaser"
I’m currently working on a Christmas painting but time has been reduced a bit lately. So although I wanted to leave this painting for later I decided to finish it today. There were a few tweaks that I had to do last minute today to fit in more with Rin Shima’s gear. I had added some falling snowflakes but decided to omit it and only left some lit particles on the fire.
Hasta la proxima,

Camp is todays prompt so I decided to draw Rin Shima from Yuru Camp. I finally broke out a brush that I bought a while ago. Covering large areas instead of the non refillable one made covering large areas so much better.
Hasta la proxima,

Originally drawn for Inktober 2022 day 23.
I had to modify some of the lineart but for the most part it all worked out. I know the anime uses blue hair, but I quite like the more purple hue she has in the manga illustrations. the outfit and colors I got from a figure of Rin on her Yamaha Vino. It really helped out a lot.

Day 23. Today’s drawing is Rin Shima. There was a reference photo with a cool perspective that I wanted to try out.

This is the colored version of the ink drawing I made of Rin Shima which can be seen here.
I decided to do something a bit different in that I wanted to see if I could just modify some reference pictures. I wanted to convey the feeling of accomplishing the goal of reaching a destination and embarking to the next one. As I was painting the raindrops, I decided to add a drop on Shima’s finger which I felt really fit. Because I decided to follow the reference picture a bit too closely, but I guess it was a happy mistake.

I had been reading the manga for a while now, but was surprised to learn just how big Yuru Camp is in Japan. That makes me rather happy. I actually went camping last summer. I couldn’t help but remember Yuru Camp. For my first artwork of this series, I picked Rin Shima. I quite like how dependable and independent she is.
