Walk Cycle SPEED RUN¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your feeble games have yet again failed to identify me. I am the incarnate form of nuance.

SO TRUE BUT HEY

what if darkstalker were green (perhaps by eating a greenberry or accidentally falling into a vat of green) and became greenstalker (short for green darkstalker).

my concept art. this is what he may look like.

Little toad guy! Rescued a toad from my grandma's pool. Thought it's colors were pretty and drew this guy.

Sometimes I am a little unsure of my drawings. I want them to be the best I've ever drawn, but my skills aren't usually up for the task. This little guy is a reminder for myself that my art doesn't have to be amazing, it just has to be fun. And I did have fun.

I like this

DUUUDDEEE your art is insane!! I ADORE the scales you draw and render, and how you make so much of your illustrations look like real work staff from WoF would make! Do you have any tips for scales? Rendering? Drawing them :0?

thank you so much!! for scales, i'd recommend avoiding circle shapes and instead go for a more angular hexagonal shape! it reduces weird gaps in between the scales and makes the texture look a lot more tight-knit and interconnected

as for rendering, i think my best tip would be to start with shadows first. make a shadow layer, fill it in entirely with the base color for the shadows, and carve out the light source by erasing parts of the shadow layer. I've been trying out a new method of rendering which takes a lot less time but gives the same if not better results (using a color layer on multiply above a greyscale render layer with a color overlay to add color to the shadows! i'll go more in depth with this once i have a finished example piece to break down)

and i usually render scales by filling in each individual scale above the lineart to create an alpha mask and i use a clipping group using the mask

scale mask (normal layer mode, 100% opacity)

set to "color dodge" at 40% opacity, additional "shadow" layer (black color layer set to "erase" above the layers in the clipping group) used to create depth!

Dang, how long did this even take??!! It's beautiful and has so many complicated design details. Wow

What I've been working on! This is part 43 for the Escargot Wings of Fire map (multi animator project). I'm also working on part 55!

It smells and sounds like spring

I really like this. I like the floating stone. At first I thought it was darkstalker sitting alone in the abandoned Nightwing city. I like his face and the toe nails.

Attack for Nuoritalvi on artfight

Nice

Okay so just as an experiment since the point of the Peril design I made was supposed to be "relatively quick to finish" I decided to see how fast I could actually finish it??

So for once my daily dragon is in full color vectorized. Took me, uh... checks notes three hours, once I remove the hour for eating dinner in the middle there?? Not bad!!

I skipped a lot of the polish stuff I do for my more committed full illustrations? Like there's no color variation in her face and her eyes are vastly simplified, but if I was going to actually make a PMV I imagine I'd take similar steps if not more drastic ones. So I think that's pretty fitting.

Muppet is a great name for a chicken

My friends, it’s a very special day - Muppet laid her very first egg! It was absolutely amazing to see her hatch and grow up from a tiny chick into a lovely little pullet, and now she’s laying eggs of her own! I’m so thankful that I get to share a life with these precious animals.
