Our feature artist/reference for today is this WONDERFUL page on how to draw WINGS by the talented @jenndeut! I love a model sheet like this, which actually explains WHAT the different wing types DO, not just HOW they LOOK! So useful! #gamedev #animationdev #conceptart #manga

Our feature artist/reference today is this set of Milt Kahl hands. Love the blockiness and seeming simplicity in the construction, which still allows for subtlety of performance, wonderful reference! #gamedev #conceptart #comics #characterdesign #hand #DRAWING

Over the Sea - Gouache on paper #art

Our feature artist/tutorial today is MORE on FABRIC CREASES and FOLDS by the talented @LouiedelCarmen! Great thoughts here on finding the BALANCE between REALISM and COMPOSITION with folds to get that PERFECT DETAIL LEVEL! #animationdev #gamedev #characterdesign #ComicArt

Ucupaint is an extension that comes with Blender (since 4.2) and that makes the whole texture painting process better and more nondestructive, using layers. #Blender #b3D #Blender3D #ucupaint

More attempts to add colour to my bags to try flesh them out a little. #sketch

Our feature artist/tutorial today is this fantastic HANDS tutorial by @GRIZandNORM. This beautifully illustrates how to suggest different levels of PINCH and TENSION, and how the hands WRAP. INVALUABLE! #characterdesign #animation #animationdev #anatomy #howtodraw #hands #manga

It’s Mary Anning’s birthday, so time to share @katebeaton.bsky.social’s brilliant cartoon again.

Chris Judge’s “A Daily Cloud” project began in 2020, born from quiet days in the garden during lockdown. With simple lines and a touch of imagination, he turned everyday skies into playful scenes - one cloud at a time. [1/3] Credits: adailycloud [FB] #clouds #creative

Our feature tutorial/artist today is this AMAZING set of tips on HAIR LINES by the impeccably talented @miyuliart! Understanding the UNDERPINNING of where your character's hair SPRINGS FROM is very very useful! #gamedev #animationdev #animation #characterdesign #tutorial #comics

Ending the day with some sci-fi industrial looking fun doodle with digital color overlay. What would you do with this?

ARTISTS! Share your art app and 3 arts you made with it! ❤️

I’m now available for work so giving this collection of personal work a bump. Any and all shares are deeply appreciated right now and portfolio link in the bio. Cheers and hope you’re having a great day.

And the rig on #blender3D

feels a bit too early to share these, BUT maybe it will encourage you to get to the FINAL BOSS in REIGNBREAKER! (out now!) and see her in her in-game glory! it was a blast to design the bastion core! artstation: www.artstation.com/artwork/WXzyP3

May I interest you in a glass of red?
