✨ I managed to post every month! ✨

I feel like I did Vivienne’s portrait 3 years ago … ┐(￣∀￣)┌  over all my time management seems to have improved somewhat?? who knows. I chose the first piece for each month again (apart from December, that’d be the Rembrandt studies, so jiggy it is :)). This year’s most productive month is February due to my film studies (1 portrait, 1 video, 10 studies). In September I posted my first animation (which was far too huge for me as a beginner lmao).

I will now force myself to let a little dust settle on my drawing tablet for at least a week. Be kind to yourselves! (￣▽￣)ノ

let’s hope 2021 will be better :)

Hello, do you have a shop ? i really like your art~

hello ✨ no, I don’t have a shop. But thank you for asking and liking my art 🥺💖

Jin GuangYao seemed as though he had been born to resolve conflicts.

as long as I’m around, no matter what you want to do, I will protect you.

Rembrandt masterstudies:

1. Lighting Study with an Old Man as a Model
2. Lighting Study with Hendrickje Stoffels in a Silk Gown as a Model
3. Oil Study of an Old Man
4. Titus Reading (study in direct and reflected light)

if I, Wei Wuxian, want to kill somebody - who can stop me? who dares to stop me?

I usually answer asks privately unless it’s a general question (or an anonymous ask obviously). But this hellsite has never stopped acting up when I replied, e.g. telling me on mobile that the ask was posted privately (it wasn’t) or that there was a mistake, oopsie (it was gone).

What I want to say with that is if you sent an ask and didn’t get an answer, it’s either been swallowed by tumblr after you sending it or it’s been swallowed by tumblr after me answering it.

Either way, I’m sorry. /0\

your art is very beautiful! I love the way you color and blend 🌈 how long does it take in general for you to comolete a portrait painting?

thank you! Short answer: too long.

Longer answer: it’s always difficult for me to say bc I don’t usually keep track of it. And my workflow doesn’t really invite me relying on timers bc I keep muddling the count by not actually working on it and just stare at the canvas, contemplating what I’m doing.

But I started trying to look at the time more after my piece of Jiang Cheng which was around 2-3 weeks. Zevran took me a month 😂 (last year’s Zevran took me a year but I don’t like to talk about that hggfgfgfvfgf). These numbers are obviously only from when I set up the canvas to when I finish it.

But pure work time varies between 25-35 hours, I guess. Zevran sits at the 30h mark.

I work on reducing the time bc damn

also, everytime I think I’m done there’s this Voice of Art Advice™️ yelling ART IS NEVER DONE at me

in truth, for the chance to be by your side I would storm the Dark City itself.

well, I inadvertently turned this year into my personal Re-Roguening year to stay sane, I guess. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

THANK YOU SO MUCH TO THE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN US AND KEEP SUPPORTING US I CAN’T THANK YOU ENOUGH ALSO TO THOSE WHO KEEP REBLOGGING AND TAKING THEIR TIME TO READ OUR SITUATION GOD BLESS EVERYONE AND STAY SAFE!!

as long as I’m around, no matter what you want to do, I will protect you.

because I’m a people person.

one taste of the poisoned apple …

it all started with an eyeroll animation ლ(ಠ_ಠ ლ)

You should do wei wuxian!!! I love your art

I plan to! His sketch is already done ✨ thank you!

just because of this surname, I am left with nothing but a bad name.

I was tagged by the lovely @wingyenart to share 5 of my favourite creations & tag 5 people. thank you! 💖

umm I’ll tag only 2 ppl, namely @magxy, @thefailureartist if you want to! don’t hate me pls :D

so picking favourites is difficult because painting is an eternal source of frustration for me which is why this took me *checks calendar* 7 days?? lol no my internet connection was whack & didn’t let me post. it’s back now though.

1) I’ll have to pick Jiang Cheng. He took me 14 days & I will not allow myself to be more dissatisfied than satisfied with the result. I like the way his eyes turned out the most. For a long time there was still his hand with Zidian in the picture but it looked too attention grabbing imo & you don’t even want to know how detailed I went with the cloth until I dropped a water bucket over his shoulders (｡T ω T｡)

2) Nie Huaisang took me through hell & back :D I’m not happy that the transition from his eyesocket to the bridge of his nose is so harsh but ehh I like his expression! Whenever I look at this, I remember that he smiled in my draft & had his wisps & then I watched Fatal Journey for the first time. :))

3) Isabela - I’m really happy with how the earring & the hand looks, especially the nails. This started as a nighttime piece & I wanted her to stand at Kirkwall’s pier but a) my nighttime colouring needs more work & b) I still cannot squeeze a good background into a portrait.

I miss her.

4) The Outsider - I really leaned on Cedric Peyravernay’s concept art for this.

What I like about this most is the way I used colour in it. I didn’t touch fleshy colours from the start. I just built it up like I would traditionally & it changed A LOT in my approach to colouring digital art.

5) My film studies, actually. They taught me EVEN MORE about how my old approach to digital art sucked bc this is older & slapped me & made me embrace the chicken scratches. Also I really enjoyed working on the trio’s faces which is why I put them here as placeholders.

this was actually quite challenging bc of the above mentioned (me, looking at my archive: i’m supposed to like my own art? *screams in agony*) but I made it, hooray ＼(￣▽￣)／

if anyone would like to do this, go ahead!

Hi dear ^_^ i’m reaching out for you to check my blog since i’m trying to spread awareness of my sister’s condition to get help financially. I might msg you many times on different blogs but i’m trying my best to spread this post since we badly needed help. Thank you for understanding!
