Our SVS Virtual Studio SEPTEMBER 🎨 2020
-
A friend of mine suggested making a coloring book. I tried making a page. Wow. It’s a lot harder than it looks. Tangents everywhere! But it was fun. I think I might take her up on it.
I colored it to see if it would make for a good cover. I kinda like it even though it’s not my usual style.

I'm working on my sketches for Inktober. I have 12 sketches posted to my Instagram account so far. I'm a day behind, but I plan to catch up later this week.

Been away for a while – getting back on the horse with this jungle themed illustration. :-]

During the LightExpo event during the weekend, I had my portfolio reviewed by Pattrick O'keefe. He was the art director at Sony Animation during the Spiderman into the Spiderverse production. It got me thinking a lot about my art and where I want to go from here. I quickly sat down and painted while thinking about the positive and negative feedback I received, this is what came out...
SVS classes have definitely help me improve but having a full-time job and other responsibilities sure make it extra hard to reach those magical 10,000 hours to master illustration.

@Braden-Hallett I love your style and also I love how soft this looks. Did you make your own brushes for it or which ones did you use to get that texture?

I finally finished my flash card project for my kids. All I need to do now is print them and figure out what project to start next. I had already done a zebra for “Z” but it didn’t seem to fit the mood of finishing the alphabet and celebrating it so I came up with this one. Celebrating and congratulating the child for making it to the end and the illustrator for finally wrapping it up.

@Mary-Toth thanks
I use custom brushes in corel painter.

Practicing drawing my character Lio in procreate. Loving the program so far.
Here’s a WIP.

I've been working through the vehicle design course. I just finished up the 2nd assignment, and decided to base the "vehicles" around Betelgeuse! Had lots of fun with making these designs, haha.
-
@ajillustrates that's terrific -to see your own progress shine!
-
@PieterVanDerBeek this is great, though I really like the first sketch phase the best.
-
@josegalue25 this is really nicely polished and eye catching, thanks for sharing!
-
I love seeing what everybody has been working on. This was a piece I originally did as a watercolor but I wasn’t happy with it so I redid it as a digital piece.

Squeak?

Another redraw of an Inktober 2018 sketch. I really like the original, but I felt I could improve the pose and proportions, and put more of my own style into it. My daughter is completely stoked to get this one on her wall!

Squeak.

@ajillustrates I love this! Awesome work

@Jacy13 Thank you!

Since these are a different style than I usually share on the forum, I'll provide a little backstory. This week will be the first time that my full team will be back in the office in 6 months, so this weekend, I decide to make my 4 co-workers Ninja Turtle portraits as desk-warming gifts. I've been a graphic designer for the last 12 years, so I don't really feel like I'm firing on all creative cylinders unless I'm in a groove, jumping between hand drawn and digital, Illustrator and Photoshop, design and illustration. Now that this is out of my system, I'm ready to jump back on the brush pen and knock out my Ink Fairy for the contest!
