The Process

Most of the time when I do trad art I'll do a rough sketch in marker or pen, sometimes pencil/colored pencil. This time around I went a little old school (for me anyway) and tried my best to be intentional with my lines! It can be tricky to plan out with pen- esp when you won't be using white out! Some of them I added in black way too early- that would bite me in the ass later haha!

Working like this can be a little tricky (for me anyway) because I feel like I need to work backwards. In my minds eye I can see the final layer of inks or lines that will help pull everything together, but I need to build those layers underneath the lines before I can actually line it. Once I got into the groove of things it came easier, but some of the illustrations were a little trial and error.

At some point I went "fuck it get the gouache" and broke out my himi palette! I purchased this last year and have made it a soft goal to try and finish this dang thing by next Art Fight at the latest. (I'll do another post on himi gouache another day.) This really helped with the areas that I fumbled with, or sections that weren't popping as much as I wanted them to. In my final versions the bottom illustration had the most gouache on it, which really pulled it all together!! The only illustration I did any major digital painting on was the top-right portrait of Nacht- his artwork didn't look bad or anything, it just didn't have the level of oomph I wanted, which happens with trad art sometimes (and vise versa)!

Wrap-Up & Materials

Ngl, I really wanted to go into Art Fight with a BOOM! I wanted to roll in, do some crazy illustration to show how much I loved some of these characters...and then life happened LOL! I also did not plan on joining AF this year, so idk in what reality showing up with some massive painting was realistic lol. Still- I AM very happy with this art! Every time I flip through my sketchbook I get to see this, and its a nice reminder of having fun with my art.

Materials used: Himi Gouache, Zebra Highlighters, Tombow Water-based Brush Markers, Le Pen fine-liners, Ooly Double Fine Double Tipped Markers, Canson XL Mixed Media Sketchbook & gel pen

Thanks for reading & happy AF!

[skcolb-archive]

Hello! Just wanted to share that I'll be switching which Tumblr blog I'll be posting my new art on to. So I'm still on Tumblr, just a different page. ( I updated the name so that new one has the skcolb title https://skcolb.tumblr.com/ ) ✏️ This current one I'm using was originally setup as side blog, which I'm realizing has a few issues/limitations for managing the page compared to a main blog. Also this side blog has my older fandom artworks that are quite different from what I'm making now... so I will be keeping this page as an "archive" for those, with the other being a fresh slate for newer artworks I'll be making! Apologies for any confusion about the switch, and thank you to anyone who may want to follow the other account instead! Also, thanks for all the support over the years on this page! I'm excited to continue creating and sharing what I make~! 😋✨

Yeah, I probably should have found a solid source before blabbing (I’m a piece of trash, sorry!) I just remember people talking about theories and it made sense, so I guess we’re both stuck waiting now. v.v

ohh no thats fine!! Sorry my first response to almost anyone is "source?" because I'm always searching articles and news websites for and info and stuff (for fun!), so im usually just curious to see it with my own eyes! I didn't mean to sound harsh. dang tho, thanks anyway
