Laios went too far Line Art

About one or two weeks ago I finally got the chance to read Dungeon Meshi, after my brothers both high recommended it.

I loved it. I can’t believe I already finished it. I really loved the world and the characters. (I’m also currently watching the anime, so far they have done the series justice).

This line art was done after I read through the ghosts section. I can’t believe Laios would say something like that. But having read the whole series now… Yeah this guy definitely has said and done many things that I think I can incorporate to this piece in a future update.

Till then.

Airi Suzuki Ray Kimono Line Art

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.

Shibuya Day Background

This will be the background for one of my recent favorite characters. Although that series has a lot of characters that I like. Because of the amount of details this felt a bit daunting when I first started working on it. But not much one can do except just do it. Having said that, after I finished working on it I decided to buy some transparent rulers to make long straight lines easier and more uniform. I don’t know why I was so hardheaded and didn’t do so earlier.

The background it self made me appreciate Google Maps so much more. I forgot that I could just use it to get background locations from different vantage points and modify my location to get a more aesthetic shot on the fly. I’m so glad I’m living now.

Egghead Island

Background for a current painting. I almost have the feel I want, but I can’t really finish the background until I add in the subjects and make everything cohesive.

A certain amusement park

The latest piece that I’m currently working on. It’s the castle at a certain amusement park. I was wondering how I would deal with so many details. But once I got into the groove it wasn’t too bad. It’s obviously not one to one to the reference photo, but I feel I capture the essence. Detailed, but not so much that it will overtake the actual subject.

Westalis Background

This is the background to commemorate a certain collaboration. I actually didn’t think this was a possibility. I’m really glad that more and more collaborations are happening. For now here is the background. I might modify it a bit more when I actually finish it, but we’ll see.

Snow Mountain Lake Background

I was a bit worried about this one because the main subject had to be modified first before I started work on the background. I’m finally getting used to working with water and waves. I was using a reference photo that had a different type of mountain that what you normally see in Japan so I had to modify that once I had the main idea.

As a side note, I finally have everything needed to record sounds. Now it’s just a matter of coming up with a format. I do wonder if people would be interested in just watching a real time version as well. I might just upload that on my secondary channel in conjunction whenever I figure everything out.

Destroyed City Background

This is the background for a RE:do painting from back when I was first learning to paint digitally and I was just beginning to understand how to use digital art programs.
