Had to take some time | Rayna Lenski

A number of things have happened since my last post... First, we found out my friend/roommate's cat Milo had cancer in his mouth before Than

ToonBoom question

ToonBoom users

I've been debating getting the program again after letting my subscription end when I needed a very long break after severe burnout from animating and focusing on a "day job" to help with bills

I see they have more paying options now than when I had it before, and Harmony Advanced is about the same monthly as their Storyboard Pro

I'm real tempted to do Storyboard Pro instead of Harmony, because I never really got to use and play around with Storyboard and I had really wanted to...but I'd like to hear your opinions on the pros and cons of both

What say ye?

Morning Conversations With A Friend

Used an old piece to play with some new #Procreate watercolor brushes I got on #gumroad

.

I REALLY like this new set! It felt much better than some others I’ve tried

.

My line work for this was originally made for a coloring page for the Sawdust Art Festival ❤️ - good memories for sure

I need to add Tumblr to my update schedule 😅

Shared this new item with my Patrons first, and now I can share it here!🥰

Successfully made my first batch of sticker sheets that’ll be available in my next shop drop later this month ✨

Going to be revamping this profile over the next couple weeks due the bird app’s potential being gradually extinguished…🙃

(Also hoping to get a profile on the bluesky app 👀)

Allergies (and the medicine to "help") hit me pretty hard today - eyes are twitching and hands are shakey, but I didn't want to miss another day in #inktober

Apologies to my French and french-speaking friends for the horrible horrible pun

Day 2 of #inktober2018 : Tranquil

A content papa Matei and baby Mari taking a quick nap

A little behind on the prompts, but feeling better and hope to catch up on my days off. Still using Kyle's "smooth criminal" brush (and enjoying it immensely)

[raynalenskicreations]

Day 1 of #inktober2018 is "Poisonous"

This is actually a precursor to last year's Day 3 prompt of "Poison" (or was it Poisonous again?)

Tried out Kyle Webster's "Smooth Criminal" brush to digitally ink this one - really like it!

(man I had been planning on traditionally inking my webcomic, but dang if this might just change my mind)

[raynalenskicreations]

Forgot to post directly here too

Here's the "title card" for this year's #inktober 🎃

(if I do enough, I think I might make a little zine out of them)

Had to check on a few festival guidelines to make sure I could show this and still submit my film once it's done, and it looks like we're good - so without further ado, here's a trailer for the film I've been putting my blood, sweat, and tears into these last few semesters: A trailer for my thesis film Closing Papers - made for and shown at my school's 2018 LAFF (LCAD Animation Film Festival)

A family tragedy has left Cliff with some difficult decisions to make concerning his niece Mari, who makes some rash decisions of her own. Will everything work out? Or are some things too broken to fix?

The answers to those questions will be revealed in 2019 with my film's completion
