HULLO. Welcome to my art thread!!! I'll be posting stuff I've drawn here from time to time, but there's no set schedule because I'm lazy so... enjoy what's here! :D

The most recent stuff is at the top, but some of the stuff further down is from last year. Clicking the thumbnail will bring ya to my tumblr!


processGIFS;
I started making process gifs mostly because I find them interesting. I hope you like them too!
the oldest are at the top, the newest at the bottom!

Usually my art ranges from about 1h to 3h to draw. you can see it compressed in a 5s gif! Neat stuff right????
i think so

otherNOTES;
I use manga studio to draw, and GIMP to edit my pictures. I'm not an expert (art is just a hobby for me) but if you have any questions about art (or anything??) let me know and I can try to help ya out :)

Regarding TBT/in game bell commissions: sadly i'm not really down for TBT commissions or art trades (to be honest, I'd only be interested in rlc so lemme know if that's something you're up for).

Thanks for looking!

shamelessSELFPROMOTION;
most (if not all) of my more recent stuff is available on redbubble as prints/phone cases/stickers/more! wooooo support meeeeee

the pic above is outdated because LOL the good dino pic got taken down due to a DCMA request -___-
I also made a society6 shop recently!

Dunno if anyone would be interested (or care LOL), but I personally have always found process pictures to be fascinating, so I decided to wip one up quickly of the Sadness picture I finished up today.

Please keep in mind that this is my personal process (and I don’t even actually follow these steps completely for every picture I draw haha).

First off: open up Manga Studio. Usually I start off with a messy sketch, and then set that layer to multiply. Then I add a gradient background and flat colours under the line art.

Additional background items (in this case, the memory orbs) are subsequently added. In this picture, the orbs were then followed by rough shading/highlights (layer modes were subtract and colour dodge, respectively).

The image is then cleaned up on a bunch of normal layers (I tend to merge painting layers as I go, though). More glow dodges/subtract layers are added for more precise shading and highlights. After that, the picture is exported to GIMP to change up the brightness/contrast levels of the picture.

Then bam! The picture is done.

Might do this again in the future! :v Kinda neat looking back.
The pic took around 3h or so. Any questions are welcome~

Really nice work you have here, Windfall! I like how rough/sketchy your style is, so the step-by-step process GIF you posted was super interesting.

Good luck with your future endeavors in art, and with your redbubble shop! I'll definitely be sticking around for more updates from you c:
 
Another process gif! Amethyst~~

This took forever x_____X
 
I drew this earlier this week for the LINE contest, but didn't want to post it until it was over xD

I don't remember a time where I spent so much more time on the BG than the main character. Really enjoyed the relaxed autumn atmosphere of this one.

I can't really think of how to describe the process, so hopefully the gif speaks for itself xD

oh! one thing is that i blurred the branches in the foreground to give the illusion of depth. hope it worked :x

As always, the finished piece is beneath the spoiler!

It's on redbubble, too!

I really really love your art.

I remember seeing your entry of Felicity for the Fire Festival and being blown away by it; your mix of colours and lighting in all your art works is amazing!

I'll always be checking back on this thread, and I hope you always keep sharing!:blush:
