Been out of the game too long. It’s been a rough ... 2 years? Here’s an Aratan showing off some threads at the beach I guess! Asymmetrical designs are always great, and I think they might be a major feature of their fashion.

I had a dream last night; a fantasy world with floating islands, a bored princess searching for a purpose, 4ft tall puffins and so, so many conical buildings. Was getting a Chris Riddell or Terry Pratchett vibe from a lot of the story beats. Thankfully, I managed to save a couple of snapshots of my dream before they vanished into the afternoon. I sketched out a few ideas, puffins included. Thankfully I remembered this cutie’s name! Taro, like the cards but not? Also he has a S W E E T H A T. Decided to flesh him out a bit more. He looks like he’d make a good storybook for kiddos.
I know I don’t have that many followers yet, but I’m going to be streaming for a few hours anyway; I feel like I work harder with an audience watching me. I’ll be practicing in Clip Studio Paint, since I’m very rusty because of the holidays. Time to get back on this! http://picarto,tv/GallantHermit Thanks in advance if you feel like hanging out. Seeya there.
17th January ‘18 It’s that time again! More doodles and/or background practice today. Maybe some fan-art if I’m feeling it.
Some doodles from today’s stream (13th Jan). Mostly just lines and colours practice. Trying to decide whether I should go for that rough inked look. It’s very defined, compared to just pencil, but I do wonder if my backgrounds will be too soft by contrast. Oh well, I had some fun anyway. ft. @theongoingplague‘s warforged gladiator character Trauma. (top left) Go and follow them if you don’t already. :)

Bass guitars are the power bottoms of music
Every time I get my hands on one they're just asking to be slapped tbh
A slight break from the usual comic stuff. Hey look it’s a soulless abomination.
Short little comic featuring Alphys who had just built MK mechanical arms. Why did MK go to Papyrus? Who wouldn’t? :D But also because at the end of the pacifist run, MK becomes Papyrus’ new fan, and I wanted to build on the idea.
You get those arms, little dude.

My middle fingers bend at a freakish angle at the joint above my knuckle so whenever I try to swear at someone they just start laughing and it’s getting annoying at this point.

i was born without an optic nerve in my right eye, and the surgery to remove the useless dead tissue resulted in a scar on the back of my right eyeball that looks kinda like a solar eclipse

Oh lawd. Uh.
I snuck up on a rabbit and caught it once. It was obviously a tame rabbit and had been abandoned in a park, but I honestly expected it to flee.
It never liked me though, and usually bit me. I named it Attila the Bun.
Not sure who to tag! @gallanthermit , @ilar17 , do you guys do these things? :P
I find it very hard to focus on one thing at a time, and I rush in to things without thinking them through. This also leads to annoying stuff like folders jammed full of unfinished work, background characters with more story than the main characters, sequels to things that aren’t even started yet... the list goes on. I don’t know all that many people around here at the moment, but I’ll tag at least @mothtrap
Another midtone doodle before I head to work. This time, it’s Vicent charging in to battle, wielding a Ranyali pike. He’s treating it like a sword, still. Anger makes you reckless, huh. Someone’s gonna get hurt, either way.
Yes I realise it’s “pretty good it doesn’t seem” rather than “Very good...”
I am sorry tumblr can you forgive me?
YES, I DO THIS! YOU REMEMBER HOW YOUR BACKYARD BARBECUE GO, THE SMITHS!? VERY GOOD, IT DOESN’T SEEM! I have been obsessed with The McElroys since I saw the creation of Final Pam in Monster Factory (Fallout 4). They make such great content, and all of them have such infectious laughter. So, seeing as it’s Pam’s 2nd birthday (Nov 12th), I thought it was fitting to pay homage to such a funny series. It started as a sketch, but grew wildly out of hand. Approx 5 hours in Clip Studio Paint.
Sometimes the only way to go is up…
Part of an art trade for the always delightful @gallanthermit , featuring his characters Ral, Vicent, and Skiks! Thanks for letting me derp around in a corner of your sandbox, gallant. :D
If you’re a scifi/fantasy fan, keep an eye out for his forthcoming webcomic, Temper!
Thank you again for this! I really love it. Vicent doesn’t look very convinced about the climb, but sometimes you just gotta take risks...
A photo Grae keeps in his pocket when he’s out on a job. Sometimes it’s nice to keep a reminder of what’s waiting for you at home. Niako is Grae’s husband, a Qinatan (more “warlike” and honour-bound race similar to the Aratan) immigrant. He’s an inventor, tinkerer and all-round sweetheart who helped Grae through some rough times in his early twenties. He’s a 2nd generation immigrant, so he’s had plenty of time to adjust to the Aratan way of life. Alixander is their adoptive son, a Capran orphan Grae stumbled across during a delivery run. At first, they spent a while trying to find Alix’s parents, but when it became apparent that they were nowhere to be found, they decided to raise him. Grae and Niako try not to let their ignorance of Capran culture get in the way of anything. They try their best, but Alix doesn’t really care too much for the finer points of his ancestry. He’s usually preoccupied with spinning around really fast or prowling for sweets.
Practicing scenes, and while that’s going well, I figured I’d upload the background I’ve been working on. I’m really trying to cement some ideas in about the types of architecture you might see in Temper, and how each race has their own fashion and art. This is an Aratan residential area, likely designed by one architect. Since Aratan value art and individuality above all else, it stands to reason that their structures are challenging to build, beautiful to look at and incredibly impractical! That said, these structures do tend to have extensive basements, meaning the surface may hide a much larger abode.
Quick style test with the pencils and paint brushes of Clip Studio. Pretty impressed with the brush engine, particularly the watercolour blending. It might take a while before I get it looking pretty though. This is how I imagine the comic might look in future, an emulation of traditional work with some digital stuff for good measure.
Skiks is great at tracking. Except when something doesn’t leave anything to track. This style has really got my creative juices flowing. I’ll not be sticking with the stylised silhouette when it comes to the actual comic, but it’s helping me explore shading in new ways.That 3-tone Copic look is really appealing to me.
