winn got new armor, finally (and a new crit splash/cut-in)
I wish people would stop being so pretentious about writing. It's a craft like any other. Plot serves the characters and characters serve the plot. You need to build both and can start from either. Don't blame your inability on describing a story on plot
“Tony [Gilroy] finally turned to me, and he said, ‘Hey, you just got to stop pitching plot. Plot is bullshit. Plot is what happens when you get the behavior right. Pitch me a line of dialogue, pitch me atmosphere, pitch me something visual. Stop pitching stuff that happens.’” 1/2
Continuing our effort to try and get the torso right. I think I'll be going more deconstructed for the future, trying to see and draw the actual boxes that make up the body. We'll see how it goes! source: community.trueref.io/trueref_gest... #art #practice #drawing
Really proud of today's practice! I adopted the friend's advice ("torso + hip then connect") and it worked pretty good I'd say. Arms could still use some work, but overall this was very good. Source: community.trueref.io/trueref_gest... #art #practice #drawing
Apologies for the absence! Life got in the way of posting but rest assured, I did draw. Here you have yesterday (2 images) and today (1 image)! source: community.trueref.io/trueref_gest...
My first work for swordtember!!! I might have misunderstood the assignment, because I guess I only have to draw the sword? Eh, I gonna draw people anyway. Betty, enchanting a sword with the rune of lightning. #Swordtember #Swords #fantasyart #noAI #ttrpg #artsky #ttrpgoc #fantasy #illustration
I just love drawing Dwarf Laddies. still working on the Aesthetic of Art-Deco Anglo Saxons (mostly the helmet, Cloak, belt and sword hilt, but the sword its self is more or less along gladius with a migration era-ish hilt.
For #worldhexmapday have a map I made with @inkarnate.com for @hellomcdm.bsky.social's upcoming Crows that I'll run... one day. Eventually.
For #worldhexmapday I pick the hand-drawn map I made for our annual OSE campaign that recently ended in a hag-related TPK.
Another day, this time with an easier posing challenge from @trueref.bsky.social's flow tool! I actually liked this one enough to keep drawing for a bit in the evening, so that's getting posted as well. Still a long way to go though. Also tried tinkering with shading for the first time!
This time on the drawing challenge, Lobster hasn't learned his lesson about perspective shots way out of his skill level. Also I'm upping the time to 15 minutes because 2x10 minute drawings plus eating doesn't work out in a 30 minute break source: community.trueref.io/trueref_gest... #art #practice
Day 4! No tablet accessible lunch break for today or yesterday so it was evening painting. Got frustrated with none of the artworks really working so I went on to the next one each time. Not that they got that much better but hey. Source: community.trueref.io/trueref_gest...
Got extremely lost in the legs with this one. Anyways, I managed to configure Krita in a way that doesn't feel like fighting the pencil so that's nice. I made a template that has the guidelines too. Maybe I keep to them some more in the future Source: community.trueref.io/trueref_gest...
Running DnD 5e kinda feels like you're in a "I can fix them" type relationship. You change half the rules because they're overly restrictive, outright ignore another quarter and finally make up the last quarter from scratch. Can be fun but I wonder how much more fun it is playing a game as intended
And today's also the second day! Which meant dying at the hands of Krita and the lack of a mouse (I have a drawing tablet)! That's the main reason why we only get one drawing today. Needed the first half to figure out stuff and set it up. Source: community.trueref.io/trueref_gest... #practice #art
Trying my luck with drawing once again! This time using @trueref.bsky.social's amazing Flow tool. The idea is to draw one to two drawings during break every work day, forcing me to adapt different postures. Feel free to leave advice, I'll need it! Source: community.trueref.io/trueref_gest...
Armored vtubers - Mori Calliope. Believe it or not, I've been planning to do this one ever since 2022 💀 #callillust 💀🛡️ #knightubers 🛡️

so, don't have anything new, but how about something old? here is a page from a comic that will never likely see the light of day, (because I did not have any idea what I was doing, ...still don't) but I'm still really proud, and surprised by the top panel.
