I Started My Next School Semester Recently, And My First Assignment For My Illustration Class Was To

Found an old sketch of my OC Ivy. 😊 Enjoy~ 🔹 https://www.instagram.com/p/CGQ0ec-D936/?igshid=m8yx0js8uqt5

Because I was asked how I proceed on another picture but I didn’t really save my steps so this time I have been more careful.

It’s a very chaotic and intuitive process, so I guess it’s more to reply to @rincat21 than for giving tips or helping\teaching something. I used for a very long time the flats+shades+highlights technique, but I am a control maniac when it’s about pics and I find that this way there is more control on the final colors since the beginning. On a less refined way, I do the same when sketching. This took about 5h and it’s my feel-good technique.

That’s all i suppose…? I am very likely to be around (must get comics pages finished by the end of the year so to celebrate when I’ll meet my colleague at the comics fair LOL) so if you want more in-depth info on something just ask :)

So pretty 😍

Sneak peek on the layout of the next theme drawing I've been working on. I'm liking the second one so far.⠀ 🔷⠀ October 25th was International Artist Day and I didn't hear about it until it was too late to celebrate. 😩 I'm kind of disappointed that this event wasn't more widely celebrated as I would've thought. I wonder if any of you celebrated that day?

Here’s my #TopNine on Instagram this year! A few of my favorites are here, including my mandala drawing in the middle and the preview of my comic in the upper left (the most liked!). Thank you my friends and the community for your support! I hope to make more great art next year. 😊 🔹 #art #instaart #DailyArt #ArtoftheDay #artwork #originalartwork #creative #draw #drawing #sketch #sketchbook #pen #pencil #inking #digitalart #character #characterdesign #comic #comicart #traditionalart #illustration #digitalpainting #TopNine2018 #BestNine2018 #instaartist #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #artist #CrystaltheCC https://www.instagram.com/p/BsCaF3Uhhvj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=j8ntc8uo2kit

Here’s a Gif of the brush in action so you can see what it looks like:

You can find the brushes here! 💕💕💕

I will also be posting an extra notes pack for $5 that will cover:

-how to add stars and effects easily

-how to adjust your image easily

You will be able to find those notes here!

Here's the next sketch for my 100 Themes Challenge. There was a character in the middle, but I think I'm going to draw that part digitally because all the lines were starting to get visually confusing for me.⠀ 🔹⠀ I've been wanting to put more patterns and Zentangle elements in my work. I'm hoping this turns out good. 😊

This almost matches my current mood tbh.

I win.

I got introspective one day and sketched out a 6 panel comic. It sat in a folder for a few days before I expanded it to 10. Then it sat for a week. After which, I moved on. The expiration date had passed, and the comic joined the rest of the half-drawn files in the very same folder. 

I still don’t like it anymore, but I’ll take the victories where I can.

Lookin’ at you, Tumblr.

Grow up. Not everything is made to your demands, the people who make the decisions don’t care, and you’re only hurting people.
