It just occurred to me that I hadn't updated this page with this fan art of the Twitch streamer AnneMunition I drew a month or so ago. I was experimenting with some new drawing techniques, and I'm really happy with how the digital pencil sketches turned out. The hybrid cross-hatch shading technique was a lot of fun to do, and the results came out better than I expected, especially for a first attempt.

The second image was a bit of goofy fun, though it's an in-joke most people probably won't get if they don't watch Anne's stream.

Backlog of art updates

Oh hey, so this blog is a thing, huh? Whoops.

If you've been following me on Twitter, you've probably seen that I've posted several sketches and work-in-progress updates to my big Rogue painting that haven't been posted here. Let's rectify that.

First up, some charcoal sketches. Practicing drawing eyes, the Night Elf from the WarCraft 3 box art, and Johanna from Heroes of the Storm (aka the lady Crusader from Diablo 3).

Next, a pencil sketch of a harpy for @FallingStardusk and a birthday sketch for @Faebelina.

Practicing line art in Photoshop with a drawing of Lara Croft from Rise of the Tomb Raider, a graphite/charcoal pencil sketch of Slipstream Tracer from Overwatch, and a pencil line art drawing of a fashionable lady. For the Tracer drawing, I used graphite (which is reflective) for the glasses and earrings, and charcoal (which isn't reflective) for the rest, which gives it a pretty neat effect.
