#(with some digital touch ups)

[biggest-gaudiest-patronuses]

got a worm nibbling my brain. can someone help me find a piece of obscure media?

webcomic/indie comic from the 2010s. basically a sci-fi short story about a young girl (with red hair?) who was being raised by scientists as part of an experiment. she receives a haircut/has her head shaved, in preparation for her annual brain scan/testing. it is revealed that while her body is human, her "brain" is artificial, made of computer implants throughout her skull and spine. at some point her biological mother (also a scientist on the same campus?) encounters her and is repulsed, viewing her as a machine who has murdered her daughter.

it was very poignant and it bruised my heart and i can NOT find it anywhere

#i thought it was made by the creator of 'O Human Star' for some reason but apparently not? #goddammit goddammit goddammit #'i don't have to write down the title of this piece of media i encountered in my formative years bc i'll always remember it' #*cut to ten years later frantic googling* #fun fact 'a.i.' is now a completely useless search term #google in general is useless #and stuff i read 3+ years ago regularly vanishes from the internet #bookmarks are not enough! if you like indie media--download that shit! buy digital/physical copies while you can #save it to the cloud back it up and organize that shit!!! #keep a list of the stuff you read (organized by date/media type and possibly with keywords if you want it to be useful longterm) #(or a spreadsheet even if you're like me and rabidly consume short stories/comics like a pack of amnesiac piranhas on a feeding frenzy) #(that stuff PILES UP over the years ok. if you wanna make sure you'll be able to find it again a decade later--curation is key) #because art WILL touch your soul and then vanish into the void leaving naught but a 404 Error in its wake #i am an old man shaking my fist at the kids on my lawn but the kids on my lawn are me and my longterm digital planning skills circa 2012

getting back into a bit of watercolor

#in in alt #+ some minor digital touch-ups #ink pens are not forgiving wrt to shaky hands </3 #but the worst thing about watercolor hands down is scanning or photographing it and all the color correcting after #that said though i had fun and i do like the texture on the seal! #i'll try to to video the process of some upcoming paintings #seal #animals #watercolor #traditional art

Papa Emeritus I

Had a particularly bad day... so have an angry satan man...

Follow up to this one of Papa IV:

https://www.tumblr.com/soundblustersotherblog/747822449496817664/still-very-new-to-the-ghost-fandom-literally?source=share

This guy was considerably easier to draw because of his simpler robes and more extensive face paint... Though it was a lot harder to find decent quality reference images, ended up using pictures of the the super 7 figure as a reference for his robes!

Maybe I'll do the other two as well...

Happy valentines day!

i didn't plan any art for valentines day (besides my gift for the valentines secret santa event), but here's a little hairdresser Sun i drew as a pre-class pick-me-up this morning (added some heart stickers to make it valentines-y):

Thought I’d share the progress photos from my recentish Maxim and VR-LA art!

You can see the point where I stopped taking screenshots lol cause there is a big jump from end to finish

The final art is Here!

Plus some different potential colours for Maxim’s robes, the green is cool but also MR-SN colour so I decided against it

Then the final flats and basic shading before I ended up going in with highlights and glow brushes to spice it up, and proceeded to not take any more pictures rip

Still very new to the Ghost "fandom" (literally discovered them within the last couple of months). So please accept my offering.

My first attempt at drawing Papa IV and not entirely happy with the face (trying to get my more cartoony art style to even vaguely resemble a real person is a bit difficult XD)... And is robe design is so bloody complicated XD This was somewhat loosely inspired by the dragon priests of Skyrim.

IDK if I'll properly colour this at some point...

Hello guys I am still not mentally ok and I fully blame tlou for that.

I spent *checks canvas info on procreate* 20 hours and 40 minutes on this.. apparently. Time well spent, I'd say. I love this iconic traumatised father-daughter combo, sure hope nothing terrible happens to them again ever. Cries.

Don't repost, use without proper credit, or sell.
