all these things are endless

#gundam #mobile suit zeta gundam #fa yuiry #kamille bidan #bright noa #kai shiden #letz cofan #fraw bow #(and her unnamed baby that never appeared again that she probably had by the end of zeta)#sayla mass #kikka kitamoto #mirai yashima #hathaway noa #cheimin noa #(plus everyone in the background)#art tag #the caption on this is from endless by iris #whose cd i picked up from a library sale right around finishing zeta #so this idea has been germinating for almost 2 years now...#i only actually started drawing it in november though

Some comparison pics of the stages this art went through (initial pen doodle sketch, actual printed out postcard-type thing, digital rendition of it)

#you can see here some of the stuff i touched up like coloring mistakes lol #(because i ended up drawing this kinda last minute)#i ended up winning a raffle at this event with a prize of a huge card of a mobile suit i don't really care about #so i traded it away for the sayla and mirai at the beach-themed special card that was in this set (among other things)

#gundam #garma zabi #rosamia badam #uso ewin #pala sys #loran cehack #rey za burrel #nena trinity #riddhe marcenas #suletta mercury #deux murasame #art tag #another thing that i drew to give out at a gundam tcg event yay #(with some touch ups)#the theme here is new characters that got added in the latest expansion (or got new cards like suletta)#i decided to add some extra flair by emulating the eye and hair coloring styles for each show somewhat

i put together a little progression of that picture as well because it had a lot of steps (original digital sketch -> printed out sketch ready for carbon paper transfer -> the carbon paper transfer -> scanned inks -> final edited version)

child of magic

#witch hat atelier #wha #witch hat atelier spoilers #wha spoilers #......just in case #art tag #despite being into the series for 4 years (!) now this is surprisingly only the 2nd fanart i've made for it #and of course i had to bust out my dip pen for this (though it's been edited digitally a bit)#i was planning to have this done by the first episode of the anime airing but life happened #(i looked through my phone's gallery to see when i actually read the first volume of the manga and it was exactly april 6th...spooky...)#her flower crown and pose are inspired by chapter 41 cover page #and the outfit is from the chapter 60 cover page

some gundam relationships i enjoy for valentine's day (belatedly)

#gundam #mobile suit gundam #mobile suit zeta gundam #mobile suit gundam zz #mobile suit gundam unicorn #mobile suit gundam gquuuuuux #gquuuuuux spoilers #art tag #by relationships here i mean characters who know each other who i think could have a hint of romance in there somewhere ranging from #the “happily” married couple to would be cute/meaningful if not for a tragic end to totally one-sided #runner up candidates for this include #amuro and his tortured relationships to fraw and lalah #amuro and beltorchika (who do eventually break up but i think they could have something steady for a bit)#kamille and fa (specifically past zz where i do think they will be together for while but not their whole lives)#and my not entirely serious based on like 2 lines of dialogue pair that come off like exes or had one bad hook-up #(m'quve and garcia from the origin)#i had this idea planned out since september but i was interminably busy in february......#i originally planned to have these all strictly in b/wish but then a realized a certain someone needed an accent color for the idea i had

drawn to you in a lonesome dream

#cat's eye #(the 80s one)#(but also the metaphorical hitomi-like figure in the second season's opening)#mitsuko asatani #art tag #eye strain #the caption on here is a vaguely translated line from derringer (previously mentioned opening)#as well as the text on the image (from an english interlude in the song)#i think for femslash february i'm gonna do what i did for inktober #which is try to draw at least one drawing a week following whatever whim i have #we'll see...

mom and dad

#gundam #bright noa #mirai yashima #art tag #this is a companion piece to my previous one hence the caption (so same time period as well)#the cafe setting is vaguely inspired by that one gihren's greed ending (???) cg #but also i was listening to ソナーレ by tomoo a bunch while drawing this #which i feel like influenced its aesthetic more than i realized #the only other thing i gotta say is that i think by this time #mirai and bright finally got a (more amicable than you'd imagine) divorce which is why they don't have wedding rings on

hathaway and cheimin

#gundam #hathaway noa #cheimin noa #art tag #this is the idea i originally had planned to finish by the end of the month but i ended up doing those chibi craft projects instead #the time period here is roughly UC0102 to line up with my personal timeline for the yashima-noa family but idk how that gels with #any of the extraneously canon ones lol #i was kinda going for random magazine illustration here (mostly with hathaway's anachronistically themed outfit)#like halfway through drawing this i realized cheimin was kinda mihessia's clone #but the glasses are actually a reference to an illustration in some old artbook/info book of bright with glasses ☝🤓#i was listening to 閃光 a whole lot drawing this and the little chibis so it's stuck in my head #(along with feels good by tony! toni! toné!)

Here's the actual printed out postcard-like things I mentioned in the last post (hanging out on my DIY card mat)

I was trying to do a faux-holographic effect by printing a rainbow pattern on pearlescent which did turn out well on its own but unfortunately the image got all blurry (probably because the ink absorbed into the pearlescent finish differently)
