classy lady

been super duper busy with deadlines!  just a small update~

environments

haven't posted environments for a while, so here are some loose color/lighting studies for a personal project

inkity ink ink

threw some photoshop colors over that previous sketch ... also, have some nude ink studies! that left pic is one of my best freehand figures, so i uploaded it in high-res :)

random inks

here's something hot off the scanner!  been testing out all kinds of paper lately... this was sketched on Aquabee hemp sketch paper.  it has a really nice texture and is made from 100% recycled materials~ :)

pocket brush pen

these sketches were done with my trusty pentel pocket brush pen that i carry with me at all times.  this pen really does the trick if you want to loosen up your lines!

character studies from months ago that i never posted here

family fluff

this blog needs some color and variation; too many 'figure study' posts on the front page.  so here's some less rigid junk that i forgot to post from last year. :S characters are from capcom's ace attorney, some of you may be familiar with this game as one of their best!

these were sketched w/ pencil, brush pen ("pentel pocket"), and corel calligraphy tools... it's important to shake things up! ;)

these guys are my favorite fictional family ever, so cute ♥

figure studies

here are some contour studies from a while ago that i forgot to post... sketched at an open studio life drawing group i go to on fridays~

i find that if i don't keep up with regular observational studies, then my drawing skills deteriorate quickly... life has been stressful lately, hopefully this month will be better T__T
