Flying Purple Lambs

watched Burrow's End and it immediately activated the warrior cats sleeper agent in me. however these guys kind of came out looking somewhat more like cats/foxes/otters/whatever and less like stoats

Not a dumb question at all! I assume you mean this drawing, right?

The program I use is Clip Studio Paint; as for brushes, I'll just dump all the brushes I use into a folder here.

These are mostly all brushes from the default library or free brushes I found online, but with the pressure and blend settings adjusted to be much more sensitive (my wrist gets tired if I have to press down really hard all the time). Pretty much my number one tip is to mess around with the pressure settings to see what feels better for you - I've never downloaded a brush without modifying those settings.

For the falin sketch, I used the design pencils to do lineart - the "design pencil" for sketching, and the "darker design pencil" for lining. And then the light gray fill is just any of the pens that CSP comes with.

For painting, these days I mostly use the "gouache blend" brush, but I've also used the "perfect oil paint" before. The "magda's" brushes are good for filling large areas or getting smoother gradients.

Hopefully that's helpful! Feel free to ask if you've got any more questions.

I think she would clean up nice

Behold, an angel

some anatomy musings on winged ppl and also clothing furgonomics

yeah I saw the lord's knight with the court necromancer again. yeah they were making out sloppy style. what else is new

"Aye, there's plenty a strange thing to be found in the White Seas…" The old sailor took a drag of her pipe, smoke swirling blue into the air. "But few are as strange as the Isle of Birds. You come up on it at dawn and those columns loom out of the mists like giants at the start of creation; made of this shining black glass stuff that they say's never been chipped nor broken nor shattered. But at the tops of them is a city, all the little houses and fountains tucked in with gardens hanging all around. And loud! Birds of every kind singing and screaming around you. The people are the same as you 'n me -- 'cept their rulers, of course. Strange folk, you'll never see 'em without their masks and gloves. But who's behind the masks? No one can tell."

Or: I wanted to do a spot of worldbuilding for a dnd adventure, but really it was just an excuse for me to do concept art

buncha faces... feel like i do pretty good on facial diversity but there's always more to push at

doodles of chicken Falin except she has slightly more proportionate human:dragon sizing

Ouuuughh thank you!! I love imperial radch so much and I am very happy that I've managed to convince anyone else to read it >:) I am also big into the murderbot books, but have not heard of The Splinter in the Sky - I'll add it to my list!

As for my own recommendations.. hmm.. anyone who scrolls thru my blog can see that I'm a big Locked Tomb fan, but I'd definitely only recommend it if you're down for weird campy lesbian drama science fantasy. I really liked Space Opera, which is very goofy and is basically Eurovision in space. I'm currently reading She Who Became the Sun (historical fantasy set in Yuan dynasty China) and I'm enjoying it a lot - though I don't know if I ought to recommend it if I haven't finished it yet :P

nobody allow me to ever draw this tiny again

this is theoretically the first piece of a small concept art series, hopefully i don't lose steam ! workin on designing a setting...

being on socmed feels a little like being a lemming hurtling towards a cliff these days but well! I made a bluesky, if anyone wants that,

trying to design a back brace for Sigra because on god does she need it
