Jam
Starting to get back into drawing after a little hiatus.
Fairy Garden
I’ve had trouble drawing/painting lately. Maybe, as you saw from my last post, it’s because of all the snow-ins that happened in February and March. Luckily, I used that time to work on a miniature kit a friend of mine got for me for my birthday last year.
I’ve always loved miniatures, even as a little kid, but this was my first time trying it. It was much harder than I thought, but I really loved the end product, thought next time I would love to make something a little bigger.
If you are interested in trying out the miniature kit here a link. Ogrmar Wooden Dollhouse DIY Glassball Kit. I augmented mine quite a bit. Here’s several tools they don’t include, but otherwise this kit would be frustrating by all means to make.
- Supper glue and wood glue
- Tooth picks
- Sharp exacto blades
- tweezers
- Sowing kit – I sewed my fabrics hems by hand, which is just as hard as it sound on something so tinny.
- museum wax – if you want to move the objects later instead of gluing them down.
Here’s a link to the video: https://youtu.be/orO4rBc1YiU
Winter Weather
This weekend I got a lot of snow and it was a pretty nasty blizzard. I live at garden level, so it looks like I got snow in! I think it was about a foot of snow or more where it drifted.
More Sketches
Cool tip, if you draw on poor quality paper, like I did, you can still have it look presentable if you multiply the layer over a different paper layer in Photoshop.
Sketches – Round 01
I don’t have any completed work at the moment so expect a couple more post in the future of sketches.
Somniumalgia
This is my gift for @yumbledore for the The 2020 Grindeldore Holiday Exchange! The prompt was Either one of them has a fever dream about the other… which I loosely followed. Happy Holidays! Hope you like it.
You don’t have to read the 1st page to understand the story, but it gives some back story. Also, I had too much fun making a fake magical medical journal page.
Random rambling, I was happy with how the colors turned out. So rarely does something in my head come out the same on paper. Also, I enjoyed drawing Albus with a fever a little too much lol. I based the scene of them on the roof on @yumbledore fic Speech Prompts https://archiveofourown.org/works/15943181/chapters/37321772#workskin
2020 Art Summary
This was my art summary for 2020. Tbh, I thought there would be more blank spaces or unfinished sketches, but for all the shit 2020 was I still was able to produce a couple good pieces. Some of these months the one piece is literally all I did, so if you had a struggle being creative in 2020 don’t feel bad.
Goals for 2021, um maybe less straight on portrait shots lol. I think I can push myself a bit more. Also, I have a couple comics that I really want to get done this year.
