I felt like there was some limitation in having your character being a child so I aged her up to be 17-19 yr old range.

Hey, remember wacom graphire?

I thought I wasn’t going to have any updates this weekend since I am away from home and without my usual equipment. Then I realize I still had my 11 year old Graphire 2 around So I decided to give it a shot and satiate my digital painting appetite.

I haven’t used tablet in ages, let alone one with only 512 levels pressure sensitivity at that. It was frustrating at first but in the end I had fun. My hand started to cramp up a bit.

Take Me

Listening to a podcast and just rendering stuff.

I still don't have clear process for painting.

edit: made a gif

Valentine

Referenced bit of Otto Schmidt for this one.

I should not do any rendering on weekdays. Takes too long.
I could have saved an hour on this if I ditched soft round brush and used hard round brush much earlier than I did.

Color of the Wind

Cup O' Doodle woodle doodle.

I coloured these over the weekend. I like the colour here but it doesn't work well with Primary colour arrangement of Katie. I will either tweak this one or Katie colour palette.
