Speedpaint Lafiat using Ette’s linework.
So, I’ve been quiet because my cat died.
She’d been sick with hepatic lipidosis since around Christmas, I’d been syringe feeding her and giving her pills daily since then. It escalated suddenly and after two nights at the emergency vet, I got to wake up and find her body on the floor of my apartment.
I’ve been sort of getting my life in order since then. It might sound stupid, but transitioning from syringe feeding and eight different medications to suddenly not having a cat is a huge change and incredibly depressing. I’ve never had a pet die before.
I have some more things to scan and will try to get some new art in queue soon.
Until then, sorry guys. RIP Yuki.

Scanned the stickies properly, so here’s non-instagram versions of the sticky notes so far.
VIII CUPS
I am going to do a picture of Lue based on this tarot card…. as soon as I figure out what I want for the composition and pose exactly.
I also associate him with the sun (XVII) so there’s some symbols from that in here too.
Wanted to do a group picture but the people on the other side looked terrible, so you only get these four.
Completely traditional using watercolors/watercolor pencils. All I see at this point are errors, but it’s deadline time so OH WELL. First time trying something like this in this medium, and the only reference used was a mirror.
Process posts here and here. I’m not thrilled with what the scanner did to the colors, so the second process post includes photographs.
Reblogging the final scan.
I learned a lot doing this even if I’m not fully happy with the final. Oddly, I was most worried about the axe and the zombieface and those are the parts I like best.
unicornpancreas asked: I followed you through the WAC, and I'm stunned by your character diversity! I'm loving everything I see so far, I do love your art. Can't wait to see more
Aaah, thanks, that’s super flattering! I was nothing but anime sameface until relatively recently and I’ve been trying to push my characters all over the place now.
I HAVE been doing too much fantasy, though. I should probably puke up some robots or space marines or something eventually.
Process for weekly art challenge painting. This is my first time trying something like this in this medium.
Gay men of Arkaz, I made a lineup to convince myself they don’t all look like kawaii yaoi boys desu. Also I think most of them are actually bi, so that’s that.
Might have missed a few… these are the ones I know about. I’d draw all the lesbians but It’d take like a week. 8|
