Just came back from a week-long trip to California, and I doodled a bit in my sketchbook while there, then more on the plane ride. All but the last one were done during that time.

This last one I actually did a few months ago, I just never got around to uploading it.

Also, I've reorganized the gallery! A bit easier to navigate now.

When you color, you may want to start of with a light base, then a slightly darker layer on top; and after that to add some depth to the picture you can start crosshatching where you want shadows. Crosshatching is just making diagonall lines in one direction then on top making line in the opposite direction X3. It'll make you colors really stand out. You can also use a white colored pencil to smoothen out the colors, so only go over them lightly with the white pencil. this will help get rid of the sketchy feel that pencils leave behind!

Drew this yesterday; or, finished drawing it yesterday, anyways. I started on it last week, just never got around to finishing it.
Spoiler:

This is a drawing I am likely to go back and shade, as well as add a proper background and scenery to. Just probably not for awhile, since I have some other drawings I want to get done first. Also, the kit is supposed to be missing a leg; she was born with only three legs.

your art is very nice. i must say, your best one has to be the digital dragonite. i would definitely start practicing more shading techniques and getting rid of the heavy black outline. the Ignitis vs Hanso one i think has the most quality to it because it is more focus on shading and the heavy dark outline is gone.
your drawings are great! wish i could draw like that.
nicely done!

So lately I've been trying to improve my human art, since I want to start a comic, and in the process I decided to mess around with realism... which I haven't done in over a year, and which I've never done digitally. It won't be a style I use often, as personally I prefer more cartoon/anime styles. Anyways, here's Firenze in a semi-realistic style.

Quick and rather sloppy drawing of Kaveri in her Tollen attire. I did it mostly to get an idea of what would look good on her, and what would even fit on a Floatzel, so I wasn't really all that worried about quality.
Spoiler:

Then these two characters are YEARS old. I used them for an RP back in... 2010 I think? The girl is Lilac Brown, the Weavile is Silence Quicklash. Silence was the really memorable character, while Lilac was more of a side character.
Spoiler:

I'll be popping up with drawings of old characters a lot, there's quite a few of them I never got around to drawing.

I got admittedly lazy with this, especially with the spikes and the spots. This is another version of Fitz I'm using in a Chimera RP. In the RP, Chimera's are creatures made up of the DNA of three different animals; for Fitz, I chose black leopard, crested Swedish blue duck, and lowland streaked tenrec.
Spoiler:


This is a couple of old characters belonging to me and a friend. My character, Splashstar was leader of the clan and acted as both Frostedpaw/feet's mother and mentor until she finally passed on from sickness and old age, and Frostedfeet became Frostedstar, leader of FloodClan in Splashstar's place. Eventually, though, Frostedstar retired and became an elder under the name of Frostedfeet once again; Splashstar's spirit continues to watch over her to this day.
Spoiler:


Oh, also! I finally got a version of SAI that works with transparency. Plus I recently got Manga Studio Debut 4; I'm still figuring it out, though, so I won't really be using it for any drawings for awhile.

The last drawing is really nice, maybe it's the fact that they're in simple positions, but the anatomy is great! The detail is great on the skin, wondering how consistent you are with those.

You're fitz character has a nice concept, but it's face looks a little derpy, and the spikes don't look attached. Again, this one has a great anatomy too!

Why thank you! Not sure if you meant the lines when you say skin, or if you mean the color/markings. I actually often switch around how I draw things, since I haven't been able to settle on a style as-of-yet.

Yeah, hah, chimera Fitz was a pain. I was gonna go back and draw her again sometime, try to improve on her design, but the RP I was using her for closed, so I doubt we'll be seeing chimera Fitz again any time soon.


Quick sketchy drawing I did of Coldtrout before getting to work on some requests. Even as a sketch, though, it still looks better than the very first drawing I did of him, mylord... XD
Spoiler:


And then the first of the requests. Could've been better, admittedly... Especially that neck, sothick, at least in comparison to the rest of the body. And now that I think about it, I probably could've given her a fancy collar or something.
Spoiler:


Then a second request. Actually pretty happy with how this one turned out. Except for the chest. I seem to have this habit of giving fluffy cats big, square chests that just kinda throw everything off. Needa work on that.

Wow, I haven't posted here in awhile! I've got a big list of updates for this. Most of them, with the exception of the first one, are just quick doodles I did for the sake of creative release and boredom, or are concepts and designs for characters. So in other words, the only one I actually bothered to spend a lot of time on fixing up is the first one XD

Rose Avery, one of the main characters in a book I've been planning for... well, over a year now. I actually already wrote an incredibly shortened version of it for a short story assignment in school last year, but it left out quite a lot that I want to show in the book. Rose is the Host for the spirit of the Dragon, and thus can switch between the forms of a human and the form of a dragon. This is a reference for her, both appearance-wise, and to compare the size difference between her human and dragon forms. I was going to draw scales, but I got fed-up with them because it was taking up way too much time I didn't have. I'll probably go back and add them another time, or just commission someone else for a proper drawing of her.
Spoiler:


Then there was a day I just had a crazy creative spike and doodled out the next two drawings... On paper, since my tablet just really didn't want to cooperate with me. The first one is Bearblaze, though the shade of brown I colored him isn't really accurate since even out of the 10+ varieties of brown I had, this was the closest I could get.
Spoiler:

The second one is of my and Lord Sephear's characters in Pokemon Odyssey: A Search For Cresselia. My character being the Floatzel, Kaveri "Jetstream" Vian, and Seph's character being the Dragonite, Callimer "The Emerald Sentinel" Vian. The Infernape is also one of my characters, from Pokemon Odyssey: A New Beginning. She died before the vents of A Search For Cresselia, but served as both an adoptive mother and mentor to Kaveri and Callimer, both of whom followed in her footsteps and joined the Gold Tribe.
Spoiler:


Sorry about the terrible quality. I didn't feel like getting up and setting the scanner up, so I just used my phone camera.

Another quick doodle I did a couple days later, this time with a tablet that actually decided it wanted to work properly! Bearblaze again, with his apprenticehood crush Palestorm (a character belonging to my friend)- who eventually became his mate then later broke his heart. Good times!
Spoiler:


This is Pearkit, a remake of one of my old characters, Flash. She is Bearblaze and Palestorm's daughter.
Spoiler:


And then I finally got around to redrawing cat Fitz, with her more recent design. Well, the tutu and the tie were actually going to be part of her original design, but the RP I placed her in at the time decided that no, she couldn't have them. Now, she's more of a psycho doctor. Much fun, shame I haven't been able to find a RP she'd be suitable for. The mess on her tail is meant to be cobwebs and herbs, but, ah... that kinda failed.
Spoiler:


A quick little doodle I did for a friend of her character, Kat <3
Spoiler:


I finally started on a project I've been wanting to do for quite awhile: draw Pokemon in my own style. I started with Umbreon, and from there went with whatever suggestions were thrown at me. These were quite a bit of fun to do~

That's all for now! I'll try to remember to update this more often in the future~
