Sketch In Progress

Joined a website a bit ago and there is a contest going for one of the members there for her personal character Birdfin. I haven't been drawing much lately and I started this sketch just over a week ago because I love the character design.

I mean what is more fun then drawing a winged Raptor right? Well I have to say I did fix her brow and her feet since I was dumb enough to not pay enough attention to the foot structure when I started. Now the feet are much more raptor-y. I'm hoping to have this image finished and inked today. Maybe even the color flats thrown in. I have an idea for the background but that may have to just be thrown in in photoshop since I don't know if I feel like drawing it in by hand and inking it but we'll see.

Birdfin's color scheme:

Blue scleara eyes

Silver facial markings and belly

Black body

Golden wings

Should be interesting to color up. For those that know me they know I really dislike coloring yellow/golden things so this will be a challenge yet again but I am going to tackle it with gusto. Hey maybe a finished piece for my gallery right!

Slythorian Color Progress

Well I have been working a little on this picture again to see where it goes, started to push the shadows a bit more and still trying to figure out the tree. It's getting there slowly but at least it is progressing.

I am not sure fully what I am going to do with the rest of the background, might try to draw a bit of draping foliage or moss but I'm not quite sure yet.

Color WIP

Well this morning I thought I would putz around a bit while waiting for the roomie to get back up. Told her better to go to a movie in the afternoon so she could get more sleep. So I decided I would pop open good old Photoshop because I had the urge to color and see what happened. This is the result.

I had a hard time figuring out at first what I wanted to work on. Couldn't find my notes for Synergy so I dug around to see what I might have had started and this guy is who I found. This is a male Slythorian from one of my stories. The drawing itself is several years old but I figured what the heck its not too bad of a drawing I might as well color it to see if I can get back into the groove. It's still got a long way to go and the tree looks like crap still but hopefully I'll figure something out for that. If nothing else it gives me something to poke at and experiment with.

Suuvaki Prelim

Just thought I would post up a little prelim picture I sketched up of a new race that I am working on called the Suuvaki.

Seraph's Knives

After my Tai-Chi class I went over to Ray's so I could have a visual reference to work on the design for Seraph's Elven Fighting Knives.

This is the preliminary version of the knives, I need to extend the blade length but so far I'm pretty pleased with its progress. The extended blue line is the length that I plan on making them. Once I have them fleshed out properly I plan on doing a colored version of both blades. Since one blade is black and the other is ivory white with a silver elven leaf pattern. Not sure if I will change the leave pattern design yet but we'll see.

Out of the Darkness WIP

I must say I love my rogue in my Pathfinder game so very much. It has been my first experience with playing this class of character and it has been beyond fun. This is a sketch I started at the gaming table, this past saturday.

Meet Seraph Morninglight, this is still a work in progress because I have to do a little more research for her blades and have to make the top of her outfit look right since there are things I still do not like. I have a few ideas of what I wish to do with the background but I have to make sure I have her settled out first. I think her hands still need a little work yet but they are starting to shape up. I think I may also change the leather skirt design but we'll see. The basic form is here it will just be the adjustments.

Long time no see

Well here's a character that I haven't drawn up in years and just had the urge to draw her up.

I am sure there are those that will remember her and they know who they are ;) It is the return of the infamous Kellendraysia, or simply Kell for short. I gave her a slight redesign and I'm pleased with it. This another image to stack up on the inking and color drawing board so to speak. I might end up giving this image a background as well if I can figure one out.
