I recently got Clip Studio Paint, and decided to practice today. I loved how well the colors blended together with the watercolor brushes, but I couldn’t quite figure out how to do the small details of the faraway islands.

Rough first try, hopefully better next time.

I first watched FMA Brotherhood a couple months ago, and immediately fell in love with Armstrong - his eccentricity was irresistible. It was fun to try and catch his essence: the mustache, the sparkle, the spritely curl of his one strand of hair.

I was worried for a bit that I had gone too minimal, but was glad to be proven otherwise at AOD, where after a quick double-take, excitement and squealing ensued.

The left was made into a button, and the right is a folded card. For the card, only the front is shown.
