If Lord Of The Rings And Dune Had A Love Child. And That Child Grew Up To Become Its Own Independent

this is a scene from the film fallen angels by wong kar wai, and the study club prompt in the good omens reference library discord was the 1941 blitz era, so ofc i had to combine them and make crowley really sad again

Azirapahe stealing a drag from Crowley's cigarette.

Judging by how things went for twitter? I'm extremely worried for this guy actually.

Just remembered Aziraphale blessed this guy's Grindr account. Lol, he got a dude laid. A lot.

Aziraphale portrait study - I finally finished coloring it!

I loved his posture, the colors and the lighting in this scene. There are some in-progress snapshots over here.

Nightingale , probabaly:

"So this ball, you say it's like a, a pageant? A competition?[TRIGGERED]"

Right right right, ok...

✨ Drawing Aziraphale ✨

Get in the zone, put some classical music on, magic in the air. Carefully dab glitter on his cheeks, wrap him in a silk cape - mascara, eyeliner, tophat, pencil mustache. There, look at him, he's gorgeous marvellous...

Drawing Aziraphale

Meditate. Research. Reverently study his earthly vessel in a humble attempt to apperciate his essence more accurately. Softly, ever so carefully, with utter devotion, knowing no depictions can ever fully capture the angelic traquil of this creature of light

Love this comic, it's so beautiful, trippy and dreamy - but also the romance! It's like dreaming of eachother is their only lifeline in this world.

In Love's Secret Domain

Post S2, Crowley and Aziraphale meet only in shared dreams of some beautiful place. There's a tree and a cottage and they are both depressed. It will be dreamy, funny, bizzare and with skippable adult chapters I'll be posting somewhere else (all for free). There will be firebugs.

Art Log - 06/2024

It's been about 3 months of using Procreate for me!

Would have never happened if it wasn't for my good friend who's an incredibly talented graphic designer. She let me test drive Procreate on her iPad. Back in the day we bonded over being weird artsy kids in school and now we're being weird artsy adults together 🤝 Best friendship dynamic.

According to tumblr, I posetd my first digital painting on April 4th (over on my other blog). I think I made a bit of progress since then, even though I didn't make a lot of paintings in the meantime.

For every single painting I'm still making a traditional pencil sketch, upload that to Procreate and then start coloring on top of it. Not sure if I'll ever get fully confident sketching directly in Procreate.

I started liking the process and the result more around the third painting when I started using a combination of soft and hard shading with some hatching for texture. So that's the 'technique' ended up using more deliberatly for this portrait of Aziraphale.

Gotta stop drawing side profiles, that's way too many side profiles 🙈

I'll post a more detailed making-of of that portrait to document my process a bit.

The trajectory of the stats is a little concerning: 1st painting (3hrs 50min, 16 layers), 2nd painting (5hrs, 21 layers), 3rd painting (9hrs, 23 layers), 4th painting (23 hrs, 62 layers). Yeah, probabaly not a sustainable trajectory. I need to learn how to make some quicker illustrations. I tried here, but did not like the result that much.

I will forever love traditional drawing and painting, but. Digital art ... it's nice! There's no extra space needed to store paints, no brushes to clean later, fixing mistakes is easy, trying out several different color variations not a problem.

It's a goal of mine to make more complex paintings some day. It will be hard for me, I just love portrait drawing too much, it's my happy place, you see? Right now I'm working on another portrait. And then I have another planned after that. So. I'm definetly not going anywhere fast with those plans, that's for sure 😅

Made another Crowley portrait this time with more of a focus on composition and color.
