it seems barok (a scruffy old hound that he is) is finally getting all the love he deserves with ryuunosuke and OH GOD. absolutely adore your art, thank you for devoting your time to these two. there are few pairs that strike me the way baroryuu does.
Thank you for your kind words!! Truly, I haven't spent this much time on any other ship ever, I think. They're really something special. And, Barok... He deserves good things. *(sob)*
Do you sketch in pencil and then scan them? Or do u use some really realistic pencil digital art thing ? I really like the grainy Ness u have in the lines
Wahhhhh, I'm glad you like my lines!
Nearly everything I post here is digital (with a couple of exceptions). Unfortunately, I can't afford a scanner (or to scan elsewhere), so if I ever need to post a picture, I have to take a photo of it with my phone... The light conditions never work in my favour, and don't allow me to achieve a good quality no matter how hard I try - the photos always come out too dim, and I have to spend a lot of time trying to digitally adjust the contrast. (weary sigh) If I could scan drawings, maybe I would post more traditional art, but as it is, most of what you see is digital.
I use a couple of Photoshop brushes that feel really nice to me. I got them from a friend, and the friend doesn't remember where those brushes came from, so I wouldn't be able to tell you where to go get them officially even if I wanted TvT If you want to try them out yourself, I've uploaded them here: sketchybrush1 sketchybrush2 (they work best in Photoshop, but you can also feed the files to Clip Studio Paint and they'll work too) Maybe they were a part of a free pack, maybe they weren't... If somebody recognizes where they come from exactly, and if those brushes were a part of a paid pack, I'll take the links down. But before that, I don't see any harm in sharing :]
Thank you for the questions, and for liking my art!
Here's a traditional doodle of a dressed-up spiky-head lawyer to spice up the post! \o/
Speaking of refs, I thought that maybe showing Barok's clothes a bit closer could be useful for somebody (because boy is his outfit a pain to draw in its full glory), so here we are.
rough sketch of Lord van Zieks with one of the concept art haircuts... .........because why not? ;^^>"
