#Shyam'a

[rusiachibi]

After months of on-off work, just in time for the 5.3 patch to hit, I’ve finally finished this pair of “What-if-WoL-was-Exarch” pictures. This one is of Shyam’a, and you can sort of consider it a re-imagining of an older drawing I’ve done.

I got catboy fever and the only cure is drawing more wildly self indulgent ship art.

#daily sketch #G'raha Tia #shyam'a #ffxiv #legit left my self a note on my sketches to resize the heads and they STILL too big #catbois floating in the canvas void what they gonna do

Behold! The fruit of my labor of experimenting with thick lines. Shyam’a in a crystal exarch inspired outfit. This was also great for familiarizing myself with Clip Studio’s brushes for coloring. Hopefully I’ll keep up the drive to make a series of this with my other characters. Perhaps even do a face/ear/tail showing version? Hmm, maybe.

Alright, got to admit, for every thing I like about this self-indulgent picture there’s two things I also dislike. But, it was a good learning experience, and I promised myself I would finish more artwork this year no matter what! >[ !!

#ffxiv #daily sketch #G'raha Tia #shyam'a #I'm FREE time to move onto new drawing horizons #I could have fiddled with this a ton more but NO im DONE #AHHHHH I just noticed that I forgot to put the fade on G'raha's hair but HECK IT NO IM STILL DONE I REFUSE TO EDIT TAKE IT WITH ITS FLAWS

SKETCHES MUST BE PURGED

#ffxiv #shyam'a #g'raha #daily sketch #Im cleaning up my desktop of doodles and artwork I'm never gonna finish for one reason or another

#ffxiv #shyam'a #daily sketch #almost forgot to upload this! #experimenting with cell shading was fun

[rusiachibi]

Hey it’s time for me to dump a bunch of sketches again! This time with a FFXIV theme. Mostly of Shyam’a, my Keeper Miqo’te, but some silly meme stuff with Aurin and even an actual *gasp* canon character in G’raha Tia himself. 

#ffxiv #daily sketch #shyam'a #aurin #g'raha tia #a whole lot of dumb

[rusiachibi]

But what if... Miqo’te pseudo-beans??

#ffxiv #daily sketch #hrothgar would have full paw pads not just a slight difference in skin coloration #But would follow the same IRL cat bean color logic I'd imagine #Ardbert #Aurin #Shyam'a #K'hrid #G'raha #T'iaho #A shameless combination of canons and player characters side by side yeehaw #I might go rooting for more cat people to draw further bean varieties but I'm getting kind of burnt out so we'll see

[rusiachibi]

#ffxiv #shyam'a #is it really spoilers to tag this as #G'raha Tia #at this point? #Yeah I know the crystal arm in the first pic is wrong but by the time I realized it was too late to for me to bother going back to fix. #daily sketch

[rusiachibi]

Oh boy, have a whole plethora of FFXIV scribbles ranging from Aurin biting his tongue and holding back his inner darkness through the whole dancer questline (The job is super fun, but the moral implications in the story are... troublesome.) To lots and lots of doodles of my new alt, Shyam’a, that I’m enamored with in an effort to settle how I want to depict him. Also a bit of my friend’s alt, T’iaho.

#ffxiv #shyam'a #daily sketch #posting these separate for the people who are only here for mr exarch not my ocs #one of these days I'll figure out how to draw shyam'a's nose in a way I like.

[rusiachibi]

Whooops, forgot a couple. Shyam’a shirtless holding a crab as a joke because while looking for rogue-ish reference pictures somehow I found a pic of a vacant eyed topless model hiding her nipples via faux crab. Because that totally says rogue. And also a little bit of lineart practice via the head of my friend’s ffxiv alt, T’iaho. 

#daily sketch #FFXIV #shyam'a #t'iaho #If y'all curious T'iaho's name is a joke he's mixed clan and took Seeker tradition purely because he realized he could be called Tia-Tia. #All of my friend's characters are dorks and I love them
