She. A Super Quick Lighting Exercise That Went Well Probably Because I Was Listening To She By Charles

Logan was supposed to be just a single character exercise (he isn't even supposed to be the main character) but ideas came and now there are a few other characters in my head related to him... so here is Logan so far, before what is probably going to be a new direction.

Two variant designs I made of Nikolai from last year. The one above is him as the Grand Duke (after abdicating the throne) and ambassador to the throne, while the second is of him as a reluctant emperor.

Azula in Robes

I’m sure we can all agree that she was totally crazy psycho, but that she was also crazy hot.

Wren studies.

Will post my Chaz/Rudy sketches at some point I guess 😅

This is a study I made while I was on my flight to the US. It was the longest day ever mostly because I'm pretty sure my April 19, 2014 lasted for more than 24 hours. 

Lately I've been practicing drawing from life. Before, I was a little scared because i didn't like making mistakes, but I realized that it's okay to ale mistakes because later on I'll be able to correct them. And as I drew from life, it has been excellent practice.

I wanted to draw the guy beside me across the aisle (because he had a nice blazer on and very very nice brogues) but unfortunately he kept noticing me looking at him so I couldn't draw him... The other people I drew didn't notice (when you see the drawings I guess you can tell why).

My favorite drawing here is definitely the mom and her daughter (mother and child jk). It was very very cute and it was great seeing that.  The man in the middle left (no, not the one who is sleeping funnily) seemed to be quite nostalgic and a lot of people get sentimental or think while on modes of transportation for a long time. The man on the lower right, I'm guessing is purser of the plane, he seemed to be quite happy with how the people were doing when one of the meals were served.  

I rarely get to go on vacation or travel, but I love it. Seeing all sorts of different people, and thinking of the many things that they have gone through or the kind of people they are. People are interesting.

Part 4/6 - Buttercup and Westley

      Part 1 - The Family | 2 - Style | 3 - The Sicilian Assassins | 5 - The Prince and the Count | 6 - Florin Castle

I wanted to make it very clear that the man in black / Westley is a pirate. So I used loose billowy clothes that also made him feel bigger and intimidating.

Horse is a Jutland horse, native to Denmark (which is what’s in between Sweden and Germany). It’s a draft horse, so good for farming, which is where Buttercup grew up, on a farm. I also wanted Horse and Westley’s design to somewhat mirror each other. Since Buttercup grew up on a farm, I did not want her to look dainty. 

Buttercup’s story is more than just about love, it’s also about freedom. I realised that freedom was the core to her character. Her horse riding, doesn’t care what others think, and wild personality is all about freedom. I wanted her hair to flow with the wind, for her and her hair feel full of life. In the book, Buttercup had red hair. For her to have such a bold hair colour, especially one that in Europe during the medieval period was not considered desirable, felt right. Her hair and her personality is a defiance to the standard of beauty and of how a woman “should” be. That someone as bold as her would be considered the most beautiful woman in the world felt pretty badass. Having red hair (kinda vermillion) also provided opportunity to work with Humperdinck’s more blood red. When wearing her presentation dress as Princess of Hammersmith (despite the title of Princess, it is a title that does not sound dainty), Humperdinck’s red on her dress subdues the boldness of Buttercup’s red hair. Combining this with a restrictive design for her presentation dress and of her hairstyle, her design become reflective of her situation as a prisoner.

But when on her daily ride her dress can flow and her bright, bold, red hair is free.

Dylyn (Scotland, circa 1803)

During the war and after.

Oliver, my original character for FE:A. I imagined him as Stahl’s son with Cordelia 😁 He would be Severa’s much younger brother who arrived in the past much earlier than even Laurent and ends up catching up to just short of Lucina’s age. Making him practically unrecognizeable to even his sister. He’s very affectionate. He also idolizes both his parents 😊

Here’s my version of Mark / the Tactician from FE7.

I know that the devs were just having fun and that there’s no way Morgan from Awakening being Mark from FE7 is ever going to be canon, but it IS a fun idea to just play around with 😁

(Please notice my Easter Eggs.)
