Beetsandink - Beets And Ink

Silly shoulder and crotch armor are the bane of Dungeons and Dragons character design.  What's with the dangling metal plate cutting into your legs?  No wonder you took a penalty to movement rolls.  Someday I'll have to do a campier design and I will enjoy it, but in the meantime, banish thee selected unrealism from my fantasy environment!  ?

I think it's a dik-dik, or some other small antelope-like creature that looks like one.  I had access to a number of old animal mounts from Bass Pro a while back via one of my teachers, they were unlabeled and I didn't take notes so I have no idea on a couple of the more obscure ones I drew. here I was playing with inks and markers.  white inks are hard to come by that aren't horrible.  I had some Speedball white ink a while back that was as opaque as correction fluid, but the container was damaged and it dried up.  Here I think I used Dr. Ph. Martin's.  I never had luck with the Higgins white, but my sample was really old.  but anyways, Higgins Brown in is an absolute blast.  there's a warm and a cool pigment inside and they tend to settle out and/or soak into paper at different rates, and you can achieve different hue and lightness when you manipulate it by pulling some of it up with a paper towel or when you wet it.

Messing with Autodesk Sketchbook Pro on Android.  It's no photoshop with a wacom tablet, but maaaybe I could get some rough work done with it.
