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.

Ruana and Mint: Background

*Gasp* Look I drew a full background! Would you look at that! Well I am pretty close to being able to ink this picture. I have to say that this is probably one of the most complex drawings that I have done in a while.

So needless to say this picture will take me a while to color. The image on the left is the 8x11 image that I carried around for a short bit while working on figuring out exactly how I wanted her pattern so I could work on the background in the larger image at my leisure. Surprisingly enough the hardest part for this drawing for me was the shrubbery and what I was going to do for the weeping tree branches.

Ruana and Aspen aka Mint

Here is the small scan that I have been working on a little bit for Ruana's patterning. I still have to figure out what Aspen's colorations, though he prefers to be called Mint.

I will have more on the pair of them as time progress I think. The background is slowly coming along well.

WIP preview

Well this took a little finagling but I ended up getting it to look how I wanted it so here is a preview of what I am working on.

This piece is going to be on 11x14 Smooth Vellum Bristol board, I am thinking that I will be working with colored pencil on this one. I will be adding in a background as well for this piece, in what little background space I have left that is but I already have an idea so we'll see if it works when I try to add it. If not I will come up with something else.

Pixie Sketch

Well here's another sketch, this character is actually going to be part of another drawing. So eventually there will be a piece that contains him and another character. Both of which need names so that is another thing I will have to make sure to look up.


So it should be a fun piece. Though I will fully admit I hate trying to figure out hands. I know it is good practice but I still don't necessarily like it. Hopefully I will get a bit more time to work on it today.
