Snapshot Saturday - May 21 (Patreon)

Hey there patrons! It's time for another snapshot Saturday update!

This week was comparatively quiet to other weeks, largely due to a lot of meetings and work with the team I'm doing gamedev with, as well as focusing my art time on completing pieces rather than busting out a ton of new sketches each day. 

The main showcase for this week is the progress made on the monthly reward pic, the Kobold Lineup (Which was what I decided on as a tiebreaker, because I'm weak for kbolds. Don't judge me. Or do, I guess I can't stop you). Chorizo, the "smallest" of the kobolds in that picture is completed with the exception of a shading pass, which I'm going to save for the end, and cleanup and inking is in progress for Drumstick and Brisket. I've also tried to figure out color palettes for those characters, but it's been surprisingly difficult. 

For additional context, Drumstick and Brisket have been characters of mine for about a little less than year now, but I've never given thought to their colors. So I'm kind of figuring it out as I work on the piece until I find something that feels right for them. Chorizo had already gone through a few iterations because her initial incarnation as Milkshake didn't quite fit with the group, but I was able to channel the muses as soon as I landed on the name Chorizo and am quite happy with her design and colors!

The other sketches I'm showcasing also double as additional practice, Katrina being human faces again (though her design also had some tweaks, as you can probably see!), and Lillith to (albeit very rough and loosely) practice environments and placing characters in them. I would like to clean that sketch up more later, but that'll depend largely on how much time I have.

Hope you all are having a great weekend!
