Form From Imagination by Steven Zapata has been very illuminating for me so far. Yes, those are all 2-inch objects and they took over an hour each. Working this intensely with pencils has given me so much life as an artist! #pencils #traditionalart #shading

Coffee sketching. Owl Shaman. Graphite (Farber-Castell 9000 HB).

Two-page sketchbook spread.

Left side: a half-rendered Owl Shaman (a humanoid owl man with feathers protruding from his head, a shaggy mustache/beard, and a long owl beak). He has long, segmented feather hair that splays out like a hay broom. He's holding his left arm out to expose his shaggy arm feathers, and stroking them with his right hand. His hands are humanoid, but ringed like avian legs.

On the right: some lightly drawn exploration sketches of the same character.

I have my issues with Destiny, and left it behind emotionally a long time ago. But I'm posting my stats for solidarity. I loved that game, I also love Marathon. And I'm angry that Sony killed one of the greatest games ever made, before Bungie could bring it back around for a massive W.

Hopefully you got a physical copy of your byline @theswweet.myatproto.social So good to have @gameinformer.com back in my life.

Soldier

I absolutely adore the comic's take on her (the fan art you posted is sick as hell too). The monster arm goes CRAZY on her reveal page.

Sunday pencil scribbles. Gonna have to do some digital later

Physical 5B pencil redux on the design.

Retrying the initial design of my "Demon Girl" from earlier today. More detailed than the previous, with ridges on any bone armor parts.

A curvaceous horned woman with long hair billowing around her, with a bone mask that covers her eyes and bone armor that covers her chest, waist, and legs. She holds a clever style sword with a slightly curved hilt.

Posting Demon Girl to prove I still draw sometimes #art #digitalart #fuckai

A greyscale demon woman holding a large two-handed blade. Her armor is split between dark grey on her right side (viewer's left) and light grey on her left side (viewer's right).

Manifesting my Art Demon My dreams have been haunted by cosmic spiders since I was a small child. Lately, an image of the Matron has been developing in my subconscious 🕷️ #spiders #art #occult

Welcome back, artists! Quote post with an old piece you still like!

Art Dad@artdad· Dec 25

Spouse got me @hifructosemag.bsky.social this Christmas and I'm a fan for life. Such a COOL publication! Immediately ordered a 2-year subscription. Highly recommend you check it out when you get the chance. Especially if you're an artist 🤩

Art Dad@artdad· Dec 25

I promise I'm still drawing! I've just been really freaking busy. Quick, take this WIP illustration line art! If I don't fuck up the colors this will be my best piece to date.

Think I'm going to redo some of my old #TTRPG art (right) since my art style has changed a good bit in the last year. I'm still amazed that project turned out half as good as it did. But there's enough about the drawings I did for that project that hit weird to my eye and redoing them is in order.

Sunday Morning Coffee -- It's so nice to have Pinterest functional again holy shit #art #digitalart #sketching

Three female figures. One standing on a train, another woman in some fancy/Middle-eastern-ish garb, and a third woman, sitting and smoking. All have have high contrast black shading for their clothing. On the right side of the image are the three photo refs I pulled from Pinterest.

Spooky Blorbo Happy Halloween, kids. Don't let the Monsters getcha tonight #halloween #art #monsters #markers

A worm-like monster with bug eyes, fuzzy antenae, and a creepy smile, with a humanoid torso and arms

Okay so I definitely flubbed #zombieskulltober this year, but that flub was a gateway for catelizing some art improvement so I can't be upset! Here's a repost of my favorite for Day 31 #art #traditionalart #spiders

Blue zombie with spider eyes, sandy blonde hair, brown pedipalps and three dog-like spiders perched on him.

Art Dad@artdad· Oct 30

Ended up scribbling out my Dnd Toon Asmon and his demiurge spirit Ma'alinan (during our down-time session last night). Whatever has been happening to my art style lately is extremely welcome 😅 #digitalart #art #sketch #DnD

A girlish spirit looking over the right (your left) shoulder of a scruffy looking necromancer/warlock/thunder mage named Asmon. The sketch is on the scribblier side.

Art Dad@artdad· Oct 26

More noodling for this concept. I think it's gonna have to be sandals, or I gotta research early boot designs.

Art Dad@artdad· Oct 26

Idk, might do a one-shot soon and finally do my first comic. Exiled viking sent to kill monsters till the revive when killed magic is used up. #art #traditionalart #pencil #fantasy

Character sketches of a Viking-like man. More Scotsman/Celtic than Viking. On the left is the initial sketch with the character shirtless, and wearing torn pants + shaggy furs around his waist. The image on the left is a redraw of the character walking towards the viewer and wearing a shirt.

Art Dad@artdad· Oct 23

The crop indeed did me dirty

Art Dad@artdad· Oct 23

Been taking some time off #zombieskulltober, sorry folks. I was feeling like I was just going through the motions after the first few days. I did sketch this lovely harpy in Leonardo tonight though! #art #digitalart #inktober

A harpy with flared feathers coming off her upper chest, and tufts of feathers on her arms and legs. More humanoid than beast.

Art Dad@artdad· Oct 22

No Zombies today. Brain really needed to do a little figure drawing. #art #drawing #pencils #figuredrawing

3 quick figure studies (about 5-8 minutes each). The top left was my just being loose with the model shapes, the second was blending two refs together (the rightmost drawing), and the third (bottom left) was a quicker and smaller study. All done with HB mechanical .05 graphite

Day 16 | Molting #zombieskulltober #inktober #art #penandink #darkart

A shell of a zombie with an oozing shape pulling out of its back. To mimic a creature molting. The husk is kneeling. Just a sketch, with some basic hash shading.

Day 15 | Napalm - Vietnam '71 #zombieskulltober #darkart #horror #art #digitalart

A zombie wearing a dented helmet, missing its lower jaw, with a giant tongue hanging out of his mouth. It's framed by an old school photograph that says "Napalm" - Vietnam '71. This image is black and white and the background is white flames of a burning forest (you can't see any trees).
