Wish I'd written down what colors I used for each part because dang, some of these I'd love to reuse for e.g. cosmic night sky. I did a whole bunch of wet on wet mix test patches in preparation prior to tackling this one, though, and I suppose I *could* do that again...

Snowpea 🫛 Watercolor, 11.8"x15.7" The "embroidery" was made with watercolor ground. You can feel its texture if you touch it! I wanted to put extra care into that because Snowpea canonically does embroidery.
So there is a fake Comic Fury app in the google play store (see pictured). Don't download this, it's not real. The real Comic Fury site is not owned by the developer and there are no microtransactions. Please help Kyo, the real creator and owner of Comic Fury, by reporting its ass.

I have a trad media wip that's been sitting 95% finished for days... It bothers me that it's physically collecting actual dust, but life has been lifing hard the past few days! And will continue to do so!
"𝙷𝚘𝚠 𝚕𝚒𝚐𝚑𝚝 𝚌𝚊𝚛𝚛𝚒𝚎𝚜 𝚘𝚗 𝚎𝚗𝚍𝚕𝚎𝚜𝚜𝚕𝚢" New digital painting (I evidently haven't forgotten how to paint digitally!). Snowpea and his symbiotic friend Nibbles above the planet Saturn. Inspired by the song Saturn by Sleeping At Last, and also by the Cassini footage of the planet.
Watercolor study! Based on a beautiful photo by theseptemberchronicles on IG (link to the photo in replies) Very excited that I finally got to do "primatic sunlight right into your retina" in watercolor, after having painted it all the time digitally!
My dearest Snowpea is a luminous boy. The colors of this one proved impossible to photograph for my potato phone... The sparkles show up alright? It's the non-shiny colors that my phone just couldn't capture, this time. Watercolor, 9"x12"
And now it's time for Claudia and Lucio #liesofP Done to test out a new substrate. Quickly made a horrific mess across the whole thing. Managed to wipe most of it away and salvage it though! More importantly, I know exactly what not to do next time 😂 as well as what to do!
Veronique process images, as mentioned some time ago! For some reason, I don't seem to have process shots after the last one shown. You can compare it to the finished version~ #liesofP

A simple portrait to try out a new substrate! 8"x10" watercolor #liesofp
How it looks when it's completely shadowed! (i.e. the watercolor ground isn't casting sharp shadows everywhere)

Maybe it's not a bad thing that I only post potato phone photos of my art these days...
The results of the video I posted earlier was this iconic shot 👏 Danny León and his crew smashed it.
Went back to look at this piece IRL and it made me happy to see it 🥰 although wow, some of the lighter pastel tone differences really don't show up in the photo, huh...

Traditional media problems: when you really like how a specific part of a picture came out, but you cannot remember what colors you used there

Maybe I need to be more patient with my progress. It took me months, plural, to get good at using my very first tablet (Wacom Intuos, the very first model!), and that was when I was an 18-year-old sponge of knowledge and skills. Today I am in my 40s, and have only been doing this since Jul 1.
