Very good❤️❤️

richolson.bsky.social•58 days ago

These are awesome! Do you do contract work for authors? How long does one of these take you?

jamiemahood.bsky.social•58 days ago

I’m an artist by trade already, so it would be hard to find time for side projects. I just did these for fun! I read a lot and It’s fun to draw/sketch as I go.

As for time, it depends. I have a toddler and work long hours, so I draw when I can. If I added it up it’s probably a full days work each.

richolson.bsky.social•58 days ago

Ahh. Makes sense. If you ever did have the inclination, I bet you’d make a good amt of $ doing these for authors.

Again, awesome work!

jamiemahood.bsky.social•54 days ago

Maybe I will find some time for it! Thank you again!!

jodyjrj.bsky.social•59 days ago

Wonderful drawings. 👌

This is one hell of a Bluesky debut post.

Please KEEP drawing in this style. It's incredible.

jamiemahood.bsky.social•59 days ago

Thanks! I made a Bluesky account just to post these since the author only uses this social media.

I mostly do realism so it’s been fun to do more illustrative stuff!

tonitarango.bsky.social•59 days ago

Wow, these are really good!

tragicflick.bsky.social•59 days ago

These are great! Are you using Rebelle by any chance?

jamiemahood.bsky.social•58 days ago

What’s that? Is it something I should get? I’m so terribly behind on technology and have only ever used physical media until recently. My husband is showing me how to use his iPad and I’m always having to ask him for help when I use procreate. The more knowledge the better!

tragicflick.bsky.social•58 days ago

It's the painting software I've been using since recently! I noticed the structure of your paper being the same on each image; procreate is great! Rebelle is available on MacOS and Windows (not on iPad though, sadly). It simulates wet media like watercolors and inks, so that's why I really like it.

jamiemahood.bsky.social•58 days ago

Ah shoot, my MacBook is 16 years old and for sure can’t run anything so fancy. The iPad is also old and has just enough memory for procreate. I’ll keep it in mind if I get anything more updated! It’s all so new to me. My husband said I did all of the drawings low resolution and I didn’t even notice.

tragicflick.bsky.social•58 days ago

Ahh well no worries, it's by no means required stuff. Procreate will serve you well, as it clearly already has! 😁 Drawing on a bigger canvas is nice, because it allows for making prints of your work if you'd like them. You'd want them as big as possible for that, otherwise it doesn't matter, really.

jamiemahood.bsky.social•58 days ago

Oh yeah. Won’t make that mistake again! I know about resolution and have made many a print, I just didn’t know how to do it on the app. I’m just old and used to physical media 😂

plantecarnivore.bsky.social•59 days ago

This is truly awesome !

judeet44.bsky.social•59 days ago

Very nice. The top 2 almost look like old black and white photos.

jim1810.bsky.social•59 days ago

These are incredible

mahpenna.bsky.social•59 days ago

Awesome!

raibeartbrus.bsky.social•42 days ago

Fantastic work. What a talent. There are so many amazing characters in this series. Any plans to do more from this series, or perhaps from some of Mr Tchaikovskys other works?*Tyrant Philosophers*, hint, hint😁

jimbobuk.bsky.social•37 days ago

Beautiful illustration style.

dept42.bsky.social•59 days ago

These are incredible, makes me want to read the books, (I've read other novels by him so I know how amazing his writing is).

jordanacosta.co•59 days ago

Great hair!!

webmccullogh.bsky.social•59 days ago

Welcome, beautiful and striking artwork!
I’m showing my age, at first glance, your depiction of Tisamon made me think of Chuck Connors, the American actor (The Rifleman) and former athlete.
