Prints! Stream! Links! Digital artist, currently drawing Overwatch, Oblivion and whatever else catches my fancy

[rookrecurring]

More Overwatch! Genji clashing with Vendetta, this time based on Noble's very cinematic clip. My timelapse is over here!

[rookrecurring]

Probably one of the weirder things I've ever fully committed to painting, but once you see the clip below of my friend playing Reinhardt you might understand. Also, an edited timelapse of the painting process got a couple of views over on tiktok

[rookrecurring]

Hallo i just saw your tiktok of you drawing the reinhardt flying into space do u know if ur posting that here? Im so in love w all of ur art now its insane

Thank you so much!! I didn't actually plan to post it here because without the video context I think it's actually quite an odd painting that I assumed wouldn't be that interesting, lol... But I'll post the finished piece here shortly! A lot of people have been asking

Second set of my Let's Paint: Hollow Knight speedpaintings! I'm painting these as I play on stream every Thursday. Beat my first boss and felt terrible about it. I think I love every single character in this game

[rookrecurring]

My first Hollow Knight speedpaintings! I'm playing and painting it as I go on stream every Thursday evening. He's such a little guy I'm going to explode bonus timelapse under the cut:

My 101st (and final) painting in my Let's Paint: Oblivion series! It seemed only appropriate to spend my last stream for the game painting the Imperial City. Some closing thoughts and a timelapse under the cut:

So yeah, all done! I had such lovely comments through all the reblogs on this series, I was really touched and wish there was a better way to respond to individual hashtag commentary on tumblr, but I just wanted to say I read everything and thank you so much everyone <3

A few people seemed curious what I would do after I was done with this, and the answer is... I'm moving on to Hollow Knight! Stay tuned.

About to do some Overwatch painting live on Twitch! Starting in about thirty minutes from posting. Here's what I got up to last week:

[rookrecurring]

37th set of speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were painted live on stream!

My penultimate Oblivion paintings! A self-portrait of my plucky player character decked out (mostly) in the Imperial Dragon Armor, plus artist's apron, seated back in the very prison cell where the game kicked off.

Also she's cradling a wheel of cheese - did I mention I had been collecting cheese all game? Every single bit of cheese I could find? It seemed fitting to paint my cheese heap for my hundredth painting. One last painting to go, of the Imperial City!

I'm painting my very very last Oblivion painting on stream today at 7pm GMT (about two hours after this post goes live) - a view of the Imperial City!

It's been a blast, Oblivion, I will miss you. Some of my favourites from the series:

36th set of 30 minute speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were all painted live on stream!

Ah, Martin, So brave, so dragon-y. It took a while for me to get around to doing this portrait, but I'm glad I waited. Watching him completely obliterate Mehrunes Dagon was suitably dramatic, and very fun to paint.

And that's the main quest wrapped up! I'm nearly done with this series, though I do have a few more things to wrap up before I say goodbye to Oblivion.

35th set of 30 minute speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were all painted live on stream!

After having gotten Martin killed once I told him to hang tight while I checked out the arena for a bit. I was really hoping to paint the Adoring Fan, but once someone in chat pointed out I'd have to do like twenty arena battles to become champ, I had to abandon the idea. I did get to paint Porkchop striking a pose though! We love Porkchop! Towards the end of the stream I started daydreaming about the Anvil Lighthouse again, so it's painting number five of the place. I just can't stop going back there.

[rookrecurring]

33rd (and technically 34th) set of 30 minute speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were all painted live on stream! I put these together since I only got one painting done on stream 33 - the game crashed so badly I made the executive decision to go play Overwatch instead.

We're getting towards the business end of the game now! I took down the BIG oblivion gate and headed into Mankar Camoran's Paradise, and then found a spectral crab and painted it along to Crab Rave, at chat's request. After that I barged into Camoran's palace and shot him full of arrows as per usual. Also a bonus painting, courtesy of the fact I just sort of jumped off to do my own thing when the daedra were attacking the imperial city. My bad!

He'll totally walk it off.

Finally finished this art of my latest DnD character, Vic! Time was a bit under 9 hours, including a lot of waffling on stream. She's an Aasimar Divine Soul Sorcerer who really didn't ask to be involved in all this religious nonsense, but is not above selling fake holy relics to make a quick buck. A church or two may have been set on fire in the process. I wanted to follow the art style/layout of the classes and races in the Player's Handbook, I really love how the archetype characters have a little bit of thematic background in the torn page behind them.

32nd set of 30 minute speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were all painted live on stream! Pushed in to Miscarcand for this stream in search of the Great Welkynd Stone for Martin. I'm not gonna lie, the greatness of said Welkynd Stone was a little... underwhelming. Some artistic licence may have been taken. After that I did a bit of a rambling and painted the church spire in Bravil and our good friend Norbert Lelles in Anvil.

My Oblivion painting stream earlier in the week went a bit sideways when I kept having technical issues with the game, and after a certain point I just said "screw it, we're playing Overwatch". Got a stack together, played a round, and spent the last 45 minutes of the stream painting this elegant Ramattra from the enemy team doing a cool jump on Colosseo. Timelapse below the cut:

[rookrecurring]

More DnD character painting! Should actually get the whole thing finished this time, for real for real

[rookrecurring]

31st set of 30 minute speedpaintings for my Let's Paint: Oblivion series. These were all painted live on stream!

Back into the Oblivion gates! The sea of lava reminded me so strongly of Wanderer above the Sea of Fog that I did my own limited take on it. I'd really like to come back to this one and give it a bit more attention. More generally I want to go back and properly finish a lot of these paintings, I'm trying to figure out the best way to go about it. Elsewhere, I popped over to Bravil Skingrad to do some street painting, and then we finally ended up pushing forward towards the ruins of Miscarcand.
