8'D Well I work slowly as well pfft, usually it's just me procrastinating or drawing something I'm not meant to be. D: hum, I usually take 4-5 hrs if it's like a waist-up? Never really tried full backgrounds and bodies and such since I'm super lazy and I have a habit of not finishing works ;v ; /has like 68465489 unfinished files.
usually painting styles go for heaps! - since it's a process that takes ages ; A ; But then again it really depends on how you market yourself. Ehe - good luck!
I really think you should do an art auction though aha I'll go check out your tumblr in a bit!
My tumblr's .... full of ...aha... sport animes... so I'll follow you on my art tumblr ; v ; Oh, and ty for the watch omg ♥ Your art style is sooo beautiful ahHHHH /im really honoured!

@pengu: Penguuuu how are you? I hope your holiday has been great so far
Hahah I definitely want to make something for you sometimes! I've seen your commissions around and ahh they're all so adorable! I'd love to do something different with what I usually draw nowadays xD
Is the girl in your avatar your OC or persona?
And no I didn't draw my sig, I commissioned it from one of my favourite artists http://pettryb.deviantart.com/
Glad you liked it! I think it turned out really lovely, I'm a sucker for traditional arts hahah.
The holidays overall have been relatively quiet, but least no drama, which is always nice. Hope yours have been great so far as well. Haha, yay!
That would be awesome if you could someday~ If you were up for something different and a challenge, my armored OCs are the way to go. XD Probably the most complex in design, and while I love them, the armor makes it hard for me to get much art since most artists I run into don't want to/can't do armor. I don't blame them since it's not the easiest thing to draw. I do have an alternative outfit for them and always open to new outfits too.
Otherwise, it's either my mayor or Fantasy Life character in one of their various outfits. As for my avatar, that girl is my ACNL mayor.
One of my friends on TBT got the pic for me as a Christmas present. Ooh! That came out great! Love how the full size looks. Yeah, I was wondering if it was digital or traditionally done since I couldn't tell as I know there's ways to do watercolor digitally. But... even when traditional watercolor is enhanced in Photoshop, is it possible to do digital water color that mimics the real thing?

Glad to see Your back! Your art is looking amazing as usual. Still look forward for you to draw Evelyn whenever you have spare time. ^-^
@KelseyHendrix: Noooo *catches*
But really it was embarassingly quick hahah xD T-those unrefined strokes and details... *chokes*
@Lilliee: Ahahahaa I can totally relate. I have like 4756653657435 unfinished things too. I often have random ideas and thought "Omg best idea ever", but when I actually started working it, it turned lamer and lamer until I can't stand it anymore and scrapped the whole thing heh. *sobs*
4-5 hours is pretty nice though! Especially when it's coloured like yours I used to do basic cell shade and I was nowhere as fast xD *jelly* Do you use Photoshop to colour?
Haha yes I plan to do an art auction since for the life of me I can't figure the price. I only hope there are some interest x)
Ahh thank you for the watch back too! ;u; *honoured* I plan to revive my DA sometimes soon so I hope I won't disappoint!
I'd love to commission you sometimes by the way hahah. Hope you don't mind mestalking checking out your art shop too
@pengu: Oh great! Glad to hear yours was nice Mine has been pretty good, I spent mine lazing around 24/7, which is a great break from my usual works xD *it justifies my user title too*
Wow armoured OCs? I'd love to take a look at them! Do you have any picture of them? Metal takes a long time to paint but when done right they usually look amazing. I think they're worth the effort hahah.
Aw that's very nice of them! Your mayor looks great, I love how they drew her hair
I actually never seen digital watercolour painting that can 100% mimic traditional. Usually the textures are different so you can tell that it was done digitally (especially when it comes to paint blotch thing like in this painting). I've never used it, but I heard digital watercolour brushes in Corel Painter works pretty close to traditional.
@DrewDiddy1996: Haha thank you! I miss talking to you xD Hope everything has been great! Hahah yes and I'm looking forward to draw Evelyn! Spoiler: I'm actually doodling her at the moment.
I see you have a new OC too! She looks so amazing hnnngg. Love her design!
@nicolaig: Ooh interesting! I checked it out and is it these brushes? http://grutbrushes.com/
I love how they look. Will definitely give them a try, thanks for your recommendation!
By the way I don't think I have posted these before. They're a million years old sketches, but I still kinda liked the concepts
Might want to revisit that sketch in the middle, hah.

Ooh, thanks for the info.
That'd be interesting to try for sure. Haven't colored in Photoshop in ages since when I did a lil more art, it was in SAI.@pengu: Oh great! Glad to hear yours was nice

Haha, lawl.
And yep. I have ref sheets for two of them. The 3rd... well I don't have art of him yet, besides a sketch. Pics are under the spoiler tag:
Art by Aervels:
Indeed. Totally a surprise too, so was pretty stoked when I saw it.
I've never used Corel Painter before, so I have no say in that one. XD Ooh, that painting's pretty~
And I love those concept pics you have. Those angler fish are totally my fave for sure. Got a soft spot for them. XD

Guess who is the horrible individual who completely forgot about this thread! Why, it's no other than yours truly. *shrinks away*
I'm currently collaborating with a writer to make a short comic, so I thought it'd be nice to revive the thread and post some of the concepts later
In the mean time, here are some studies I did during the past few months:
^ really quick digital study.
^First time drawing using charcoal. It was really hard, but incredibly fun! Will definitely do more studies using traditional medias.

Aw thank you! Thank you for checking out my stuffs and glad you liked them
It's an honour! And sure take all of it!! *puts brain inside a jar* xDOh you have a hamster? Must be really adorable! What is his/her name?
I wish I can have hamsters too, but hamsters are banned where I live D':----
Oh, I was also going to post this earlier, but apparently I forgot, haha ^^; It's just some gesture practice sketches. Drawing is hard.

"doodles" *screams* these are masterpieces. *A*
Oh my gosh thank you for the kind comments ;-; You're all too nice hahah xD They're so far away from masterpieces, but thank you so much!
@Caius: Thank you, glad you think they look okay! I'm a fan of your art so it really means a lot haha
@Slammint: She must be so cute! *jelly* I used to have a syrian hamster as well, but I moved overseas... and happened to land on a place where hamsters are prohibited. I know right! Something about foreign rabbit infestation happened, and after that certain exotic animals are banned here. Weird law is weird xD
---------------------------------
Here is a charcoal portrait with slightly exaggerated features. I don't think I've ever posted this anywhere else before
I recently got a chance to attend a class taught by this wonderful artist I've admired for years. He showed me what I've been doing wrong all this time, namely values, edges, and simplification. Now I know! I'm so lucky to be able to join the class ;.; Now it's time to try to improve. One day I'll get there, one day...
And here is something I did for the fire festival. I had to really rush it, but I love the theme and I've been wanting to draw my mayor for ages, sooooo....
I hope it looks okay though

well make some toast and call me mildred because this is some hella fantastical art you got going on here.
Wow, the latest pieces are amazing! You have such a cool style and every art piece you do is so interesting. It amazes me how you can draw in such a stunning way.
[THIS] IS MIND-BOGGLING. It would be my favorite piece of yours, if I was forced to pick a favorite. Lol. Literally everything looks great though, even old pieces from a year ago. It's like you're on a whole other level, haha.
