Celestial Melody - Subject: Polaris (OC)

"There is no such beauty as where you belong, Rise up, follow me, I will lead you home."

447.6 Light-years away, in the vastness of space, one lone deity sings a song for you and me.

Krita Test 3 (skipped 2 & 2.5)


If you were wondering where the quote came from, it's from this beautiful short choir song titled "The Road Home"

Give it a listen if you'd like! It was this song and other fantasy ones that really fuelled this piece, and I consider it Polaris' unofficial theme of sorts because the lyrics fit quite well.

Also, this is the first time I've shown Polaris here! It's an unofficial debut though, their design is still in progress. Look out for a ref sheet one day

Fun stuff I tested:

- Layering gradient maps on each other

- wet paint brush??

also, I tried drawing long flowy hair for once, I think it looks better than I thought, but I don't understand how to draw ribbons so it could be better ;w;

(these are just personal notes)

2 More Attacks, One for: https://artfight.net/~Melloobee and the other for @Hiiexist

I want to improve my visual storytelling skills. That means a whole lotta character interactions, and comics are one way to do it.

My Artfight: https://artfight.net/~SmudgedVolt

"On the day you revealed the wonders of your mind, I was pulled into your orbit."

Revenge for: https://artfight.net/~Melloobee

(1st of the year!)

I've been dabbling in this artstyle more these days. I hope to improve my skills in portraying characters properly + drawing scenery this year.

Finished Prize for @JaxoDraws0104!

Thanks for being cool with the long wait! And now that it's done, I've finally rolled out all the prizes I promised. Definitely a big learning experience for me 0(-(

Poster Releases! Enjoy!

Silent Glow - Unitas (OC)

Drawn on Krita, streamed the process on Discord for all 2 of my closest friends (but only one came)

Consider this the rare art drop of the month and my attempt at redemption after I drew this one: https://gamejolt.com/p/silent-contemplation-subject-unitas-oc-krโ€ฆ

While Unitas is all frowns and serious business, Aeterna is...whimsical. Silly, even. Don't let that fool you.

(Life update: I've taken to reading books again, and I'm trying to exercise more frequently. Life is starting to feel more balanced again.)

WIP of @Telta14 's OC. This is a drawing I'm making as a gift asked by my friend @Manuelaa . Hope you're liking it!!! โ‚^. .^โ‚ŽโŸ†

Batch Drop of the remaining Artfight Attacks I hadn't posted yet.

Overall, I'm fairly satisfied with what I managed to achieve in a month, especially with the comics and character interactions. + I improved drawing on mobile, which is nice!
