ROUNDUP: January Week 2 (Patreon)

My second weekly roundup! Here's my commentary.

1. Kelda, Brenna, Hjarn, Dynja (original characters): With this new series of elemental art, I kept a unified color scheme between pairs and tweaked their designs in small ways. It's still something I need more practice with, but I tried to push the gesture in their poses a bit more than usual. Overall, I'm really satisfied with how these turned out.

2. Unnamed exotic cat girl (original): Open mouth "invitations" are sexy, lol. This was originally planned to be more explicit, but in the process of working on it I found that the implication was actually more charming than actually adding a money shot in there.

3. Asylum Demon, Bell Gargoyle, Quelaag, Taurus Demon from Dark Souls: continuing the stylistic idea I had for the series of Bloodborne bosses I did in the past, I decided to tackle the bosses of the first Dark Souls game. I'll draw all of them eventually, but only 3-4 at a time. I have no interest in doing pixel art, but I imagine these as my own take on 8-bit sprites -- i.e., what if Dark Souls was an RPG for NES?

4. Ganyu from Genshin Impact: Tested out a new brush with this portrait of the hot new blue-haired gacha gal. It's softer than my usual brush, and overall I like my usual tool better -- but it was an interesting experiment!

5. Dante from Devil May Cry, Elphelt Valentine from Guilty Gear Xrd, Resplendent Lucina from Fire Emblem Heroes, Mothman from Shin Megami Tensei: These are four profile picture commissions I did on Tuesday! I plan to reopen profile picture commissions once a week on Twitter and delete the post when I've finished my fill, so please keep on eye out if that's something you're interested in.

Overall, I'm very happy with my output lately. I've done a variety of stuff and it doesn't always work perfectly, but I think it's getting better.

I'll have one more post from this week, but since it's explicit NSFW, I'm making it a post of its own. Thanks again for your support!
