Dont have a name for this lil guy yet but he was a dragon puppet who started out as a fakemon design. Liked it so much just wanted to keep him.
As of now he's one of the whimsiwyrms but his powers and purpose remain unseen to me at this time.
If I drew him again I'd probably push him more but if you can spot his main inspo then kudos!
More traditional experimental stuff! I got a new sketchbook as I finished the last one (maybe I should do a video tour of it?). The new one isnt quite the texture I like for just sketching, but it is very nice for ink and markers and I happened to purchase a few more water based markers the other day from my fave art store. I know its probably seems obvious but I found that copics are not the best for this paper but the water soluble markers from faber castelle and tombow are very nice to work with. I may get more in the future.
I think would I would like to try next is some oil pastel pencils? Im curious about them though I should also just use up my colored pencils. Either way Im having fun! Its nice to just...make a thing and say 'thats good enough' and move on while thinking of new ways to keep pushing it. I broke in that big sketchbook too so no more 'oh no its too nice to make art in' for me!
Here's one from last year with a JV rabbit. JV and pooka just sorta overlap a lot and take on a variety of styles and shapes but tend to float between rabbits, monsters, tigers, dragons. I should revisit this.
I still love Maestro Peanut and the fact he just came from a prompt generator makes him all the more special to me. Its fun seeing how far he has come and how he continues to evolve while still being my silly lil crass idiot. Going through the 2022's I realize how inconsistantly I'd post things between twitter/tumblr/instagram but can you blame me, keeping up with all three is a pain.
Buckle in we got some more art from the past and the next two posts gonna be some pooka madness. Its fun watching Pooka change over the years. This was from 2010 and at the time I was def drawing more like 'toon' inspired stuff so its fun to see in their design. Its also neat to see what elements have stayed and whats changed. Just a forever inconsistent bean.
Some more pookas from 2020 but more traditional now. I like energetic lines with thicker lines to give the final form. I may try that again and experiment with adding color like I've been doing lately. I fluctuate a lot with how much energy/posing I can get. Sometimes it makes me worry I have to have these big dynamic poses all the time but overall I think the more casual poses are important too. My hope is one day I can get to that point where even the casual poses have so much flow/stretch/squash in them that they still feel alive.
Rough mental morning but good venty postit notes so it all works out?
