Quinnkulina sketches

Can’t stop drawing my favourite yandere and her chew toy… mostly thanks to their new, much more appropriate romance theme song. Top left: yandere being yandere in bed. Top right: difficult to work when your boss is a Sith Lord and also your girlfriend and also likes cuddling to sleep at inopportune times. Bottom left: be careful what thoughts you think when shirtless lest it summon a horny Sith Lord girlfriend. Bottom right: just trying to get the hang of her face/clothes in my own style. These two both have absolutely fabulous cheekbones.

Telling that I can seemingly only draw her being vulnerable when she’s asleep. Continue reading →

Elslince

My Voltron: Legendary Defender OC, Elslince, a green plant woman from the planet Teler for my romance/hurt/comfort fanfic. Studying to be a doctor to help the Teleran Resistance against Zarkon. Telerans have yellow blood so her blush is yellow. They also have prehensile hair and star-shaped pupils. Also, possibly my first character who wears pink?

Been listening to Zenzenzense (poor sound quality but translations! also the same version as is available on iTunes and not some cover) and Nandemonaiya (which is not the same as the iTunes version, but at least it’s RADWIMPS) while drawing this and just in general. Guess they’re my soundtrack for Voltron plantshipping now!

Dang, Akuliina is being super distracting today. And forever. Guess I’m drawing her next, and not in a shippy way, either. *shock*

Detailed head-er

Click for larger. Decided it was high time to turn the temporary header into a slightly more detailed header. I tweaked the anatomy a little bit but Esgalwen’s nose is still blurp. I mostly did this to procrastinate on the last Transistor fanart which is the most ambitious one. I may tweak this further but it’s a lot shinier than it was before.

This week I found out that front break-falls in karate have been messing up my neck so not going to do those anymore.

The Spine of My World

CLICK FOR LARGER

SO GUYS I think I figured out what the Spine is about. At least for me. It’s another love song for [John], as in: he is the backbone of her world…? Anyway I made a visual representation of the two verses and refrain. At first I was just going to do John, when I realized that verse 1 is entirely about Red. The interlude is still incomprehensible but I thought this was kind of neat.

Also, references: frame is from Tigers-stock, John’s hands are referenced from a random Shutterstock photo. I’m not 100% happy with his head but I’m not sure how to fix it so I’m not. For Red, I was going to use Night’s Rest by Mucha of course, but then it turns out that the reason I wanted to use it was because I was subconsciously thinking of the Transistor album cover! So I didn’t. : P

The Kiss

Another scene from my fanfic, the first kiss. It was surprisingly difficult to find image references of kissing couples with a big height difference. I also looked up art nouveau kitchens, and the pattern around the edge is based on that one picture of Red eating pizza with the sink in the background. I’m not sure my ‘art nouveau’ fits into what we see of her apartment there, but I tried, guys, I tried.

Two more Transistor images to go! One based on The Spine (I think I finally figured out an interpretation I like) and one based on the Delain song Stardust. Those ones will be more paint-intensive, so will take longer.

Fashion Week

Transistor fanart!!! Red and [John], whom she’s dragged along to participate in Fashion Week with her, as happens in my fanfic. Lazy shading but don’t care. Did you know that there is NO avant garde male art nouveau fashion AT ALL? Kind of a snag in designing this picture! And period male art nouveau fashion is… suits. Not exactly what I need…

I love these two darlings! More to come…!

Selyn Tekeri: Exile

Selyn in her blue Zeison Sha armour. I probably didn’t keep it all through the actual game (it’s been a while since I played, I don’t remember) but I do know it’s my favourite armour, and goes with the theme of being a Jedi without being a Jedi – wearing actual armour instead of monkish robes, wearing the armour of an anti-Jedi people, but still being completely devoted to helping and serving the people of the galaxy. That you don’t have to follow the traditional rules to be a good person, and maybe you can even be a better person for not following the rules (since those rules may not make sense and in fact harm more than they help, though they are based on good intentions), as long as you’re responsible about what you’re doing and think about why you’re really doing what you’re doing.

Another sumi-e experiment. Still not really sure what I’m doing. Will keep practicing. There’s a very specific project I want to use this style for.
