Rummaged through my old scanned files and found some chibis from 5 years ago to colour. Quil was in the middle of a redesign at that time, who knows how much of it'll stick.
Doodles of the boy in various styles. Once again the sketches have been sitting in my scanned folder for 2 years.
Quick OC reference picture because I realized all my drawings of him are extremely inconsistent with regards to the patterns on his shoulders.
Meet Shui, an incredibly naive prince-in-distress.
Aaaand some assorted OC stuff to finish up last year’s unfinished scribbles!
Chibi Quil looks like he’s seen some shit. And beware of that last character, her ego is through the roof (though I’m not sure what to do with her palette).
So OC-tober is a drawing challenge this month! I’m really busy so I don’t know how well I can keep up, but here goes.
Day 1: Em
He doesn’t have a proper name yet. I’ve been calling him Emperor as a carry-over from an older story he was in but his current title would be ‘prince of Rhea’. He gets tangled up in some unexpected magic business and is one of the main characters in my Wax Phoenix story.
Still art-blocked ugh
Wobbly Em sketch. I feel like I've drawn him in this pose before...
This song gives me so many WP feels.
Drawcember Week 3 Part 1: a big group shot of your characters
Doing this in chibi feels like I'm cheating somehow... Here's a good chunk of the Wax Phoenix cast. Left to right we have:
Yun, Niran, the Emperor, Danica, Sora, Cale, Jere, Elise, Zeffe, Karu, Faleen, Quil, and Zae
Still can't decide how birdy I want Zae to be.
I have a tiny watercolour sketchbook and was seeing what I could do without really letting the paint dry.
How do I hair??
I'm really out of practice... even just slapping colours onto this made my hand cramp up...
Pushing some colour around without too much thought involved.
Chibi from a few days ago. I'm having a really hard time finding time / staying motivated... hopefully I can turn that around.
And the finished painting! I did this mostly to paint skin, and man did I paint skin... Also I like drawing strange magic-related things.
Some WIPs of a painting I'm working on.
