Felt pretty inspired the other day, so I redrew Integrelle from scratch, trying out some new styles and techniques. Kinda cool that I can see my improvements over the years!
If you look at my timelapse, you'll see me struggling to get her face right for a while lol

I use Procreate and Krita at the moment.
This was just a test drawing. My skill is diminished because I am trying to get used to drawing upright rather than flat as I am used to. This was don't on a Chuwi Ubook (Microsoft Surface knockoff). When I use my laptop, I have a huion drawing tablet that I plug in. It is much easier than this upright tablet. Any tips for comfortability when drawing on upright surfaces?
A mixed media drawing to conceptualize my world a little better. I did the lineart traditionally, the colors are digital and the shading is a mix of both.
First layer done, needs more color notes than the dull Grey for the rocks
First time I tried a chinese brush for the ink wash. They are really soft and can hold a lot amount of water.
I pulled a black and white photo of this young man and had to paint his hair. But I felt like it needed out of this world colors. What do you think?
And as a bald man who once had hair that was always complimented by the barber, maybe I'm a little envious.

I implore you to check out his channel if you like concept art and creature design, or if you just want sketchbook tips in general. He is a pretty decent teacher.

This one is my favorite by far is the black and white of Ludmila's face is by far my favorite. I feel like I really captured her spirit here.

Second pose from Dilnoza Abdusalimova. I tried to convey the energy I feel watching the video and hearing the music but in a still image.

I started each drawing with a scribble as per the YouTuber Draw Sessions' inspiration and turned it into a creature or doodle.
Modern witches would never use a broom as transport when there is perfectly comfortably furniture! Fly in comfort ladies!
And the robe, IT HAS POCKETS!!

This time I made it just a little bit smaller than I've been making them, to keep as much extra material as I could, to make into a built-in desk/table stand. I am very pleased with the results, as I still wasn't sure up until the end if I was even gonna be able to pull off that stand part.
Potential color(s) to paint it, yet to be decided, but I feel the name should be one solid color, while the stand/underline part should be another color.
Thoughts and opinions welcome, as always. The lady this is meant for has no idea this gift is coming her way, but the elderly lady that asked me to make it for her is thinking red..
