Some recent gesture drawing practice! Trying to find that flow and movement in the figure - got some helpful advice from a friend that I'll be using on some drawings going forward too!

More practice with notes! Learned some lessons from my last piece.

Another figure study with notes! Not 100% happy with how it turned out, but I'm learning a lot about my line weight and colors. Cell shading sounds simple but it's pretty hard to get right!

More style and figure practice - also trying to learn a little about coloring!

Some proportion, anatomy and style practice! Trying to find what feels and works best for me.

Needed a break from my usual drawing routine, and found some dapper fellas to work with! The change of pace felt good, definitely need to do this more often.

A recent page of figure practice! Working on my linework, shading and coloring. Still trying to figure this all out, it's a grind but I'm making progress 💪

I did a character study of the OC Vicky from the artist mannys_Itsrock on Instagram!

It was great getting to practice my own style with someone else's - I hope to do more of these in the future!

Some figure practice with form shading! Trying to figure out what method works best for me.

Some recent gesture into figure studies I did, really happy with how these turned out! Next on the 'to-do' list are to start practicing clothes and folds and some perspective. Gotta be able to put these bodies into rooms and whatnot after all!

More figure studies! This time using my favorite servant from Fate Grand Order: Mashu! I've been messing around with trying to shade and color more on the spot without going into full illustration mode. Sometimes it works, but not all the time. #fategrandorder #MashuKyrielight

Glad you like- I do really like that outfit, the way it contours to her, it's kind of like a more saucy version of her main outfit (which is also iconic and great)
Here's another from that set btw:

Anyone remember an MMO called Ragnarok Online? That was one of my favorites growing up - so many good memories! Here's my take on the female Swordsman class.

Why just do regular 'ol figure practice, when you can create random characters along the way to make it fun! Ended up making this character unintentionally and liked it enough to make her into an entire page of overconfidence and destruction!

Some sketches I did towards the end of 2025 that I was really proud of! It felt like I was starting to hit my groove for drawing bodies after this.

So I've decided to start posting some of my drawings here too! I'll start it off with one of my last drawings from 2025.
It may be my last drawing of last year, but it was my first finished illustration ever! So I'm very proud of how it turned out.
