Style practice!

I realized in my art I tend to just wing it without an end-goal-look, so i tried drawing the ref image in different styles to practice. First one is based on Manga style, specifically i was looking at Gege Akutami's work in jjk. Second one I based on the artwork from the games Hades. Third one I was going for a general softer/desaturated aesthetic. (I was gonna do a fourth but I ran out of steam halfway through the third one lol)

Phoenix 'I fell off a bridge but nbd I just have a cold'🤝 Xie Lian 'getting stabbed is nothing I've gone through worse lol'

Cue the horrified looks from their loved ones

Been obsessed with tcgf and ace attorney recently and after thinking about their similarities I was possessed to make this lol

Also (bit of a spoiler for tgcf ending below):

Phoenix 🤝 Xie Lian

Being emotionally attached to a rich demon bastard with a red aesthetic, who once left for a year after vaguely implying they were going to die

redraw(idk if thats the right term?) of this panel:

Im returning to my roots!

Before I gained enough confidence to make my own fanart or original art, I would satisfy my need to draw by redrawing things and jjk manga panels, especially, were a reference source I would often turn to. 

Im having a bit of artblock rn so I had fun returning to this again. It felt good (I love Gege's style) but also so fucking weird cause im used to drawing them using a shitty ballpoint pen or whatever I have on hand, and trying to imitate the screentones by hand. Being able to erase things and easily add in screentones in just seconds on digital is blowing me away quite honestly.

I may or may not do more of this till my artblock (hopefully) lessens

Plus now I get to fuck with the colors lol

Livyatan melvillei!

I became absolutely fascinated by this creature recently so I tried my hand at painting one of its fossils :)
