Working on new covers for my science fiction novels! ♥

[brittle-bee]

Still working on this thing. It's coming along nicely, though!

Rough sketch for a future illustration featuring E’ly! The idea popped into my head as I was wrapping up commission work and I just had to get it down on a canvas. ♥

These wings are going to be the death of me.

Quick sketch of Ellen <3

aaa, I miss my anime babies. I'll get back to their story soon enough, though.

So this guy underwent a bit of a redesign.

I was finding it hard to get attached to the character with his previous appearance, so I decided to play around with some new designs--including one with a more organic face. And that's the one that stuck with me.

So here's the fresh, new Callum. Still a robot, but now with a more "human" look!

Did somebody ask for a smol neglected cat boy?

The answer is no, but you're getting one anyway.

Ahlaie stood unmoving in a gown of silken sheets, watching a cluster of stars far beyond the curve of New Heathfield. At first it seemed she had not heard him come in, nor taken notice of the scuffle outside her chamber.

Then, she spoke.

“I never meant for things to happen this way.” Her voice was weak, lacking the strength it once held—that raw power that had once commanded hundreds of fleets across the galaxy. “For the longest time, I believed we were fighting for our survival—that we had no choice but to exterminate the human race or face extinction ourselves . . . I see now the mistakes I made.” Ahlaie turned away from the window and met his befuddled gaze. Her lips curved slightly. “I knew you would come.”

I've been having major Ahlaie feels since I started working on her chapters in PULSE, so here's a little sketch from a scene in REBIRTH.

The Calypsis Project, character, artwork (C) Brittany M. Willows Background was yoinked from some concept art I found on google.

Chibi Mercy! This is one of several Overwatch chibis I'll be selling as stickers at Ottawa Geek Market this year. :la: Artwork (C) Brittany M. Willows

Mercy chibi is coming along nicely so far! Here’s hoping it doesn’t get ruined in the coloring process.

Quick sketch of E’ly in her formal attire.

I’m staring at the face on this like, “. . . holy shit, did I actually draw that?”

I’m so glad I decided to do a complete overhaul on the face shading. I can’t believe how well it turned out after how awful it looked on my first attempt. It was shit before. Now I actually like it. A lot.

This is one of those rare occasions where I’ve actually impressed myself.

Like damn.

[brittle-bee]

Experimenting with new brushes and stuff, so have a random lady, Alana Carmen, Colin Parker, an older Charlotte, and a blank-faced dude.

Whipped up a sketch for my Mercy print! Gonna do Tracer as well, and hopefully I'll be able to finish at least one of them by the time Geek Market rolls around in October.
