current WIP of a drawing im working on now

this time i wanna try to improve on cell shading a bit more

been also working on a model for a custom muzzle flash. a effect where i can have control on how to turn on and off with random variables made

i also made a muzzle flash image using photoshop using free images that are available to use (by fusing together to make something new)

still working on the castle crasher fan art. heres the current WIP. almost there to completion but still need to shade other parts and re look at it for any other things i should correct

herer my current update on this drawing. starting shading and texture work on Background

Its honestly coming out really good, my only problem is trying to be more consistent with working on this. (due to me be procrastinating the hell on other things :L)

so i was working on a fanart drawing of castle crashers and i justed wanted to post some of the WIP

there is an older post of the initial draft but i figured to post more WIP post here. to help me get more motivated to work on my drawings

Current WIP

Blender 3D Initial BG and scene Reference

With People

Just the BG

so hi... its been a hot minute huh?

this is a just small update on what i'm doing right now.

at the moment i have been a HUGE ART RUTT. i have been not at all been motivated to draw lately. due to coming home from work and just sorta SLACKING hard with everything (playing WAY TOO MUCH GAMES is a HUGE reason way i have been slacking, and just dead tired.)

i was gonna try to upload a halloween drawing but, at the very last minute, i wanted to redo the entire shading. i don't know why but i wanted to try something else

current WIP of the new shading

old WIP

either way i'm hoping to either get this done soon, or at least get to a better point to come back later to, (i really wanna try to get a thanksgiving piece out that i have in mind)

i hope that the rest on this year i'll be a bit more active and have better time management with my freetime (GOOD lord Crossout has stolen SO MUCH of my time)

enjoy the holidays!

(this is a repost from the robot day wip thread)

yeah unfortunately, ill have to sit this one out, i have delayed my work too long and i will be able to put something that i would be content with. honestly this was a good learning experience but man it feels like a bummer to not have anything polished to good quality

1) here's what i had left in my work on this work

This is the scene i was trying to do but i had MULTIPLE issues of exporting my model to this file (for some damned reason, my armature/rig always get janked up. anytime i try to attempt to fix this, something new arises)j

The boi

the bois backside

The big DAKKA

so where have i been? well i have been very much a "dead inside feels" recently. my mind feels like in a muck and i cant seem to slide my ass out of. i have been thinking and maybe this "side project" gonna have to be a side thought for now. honestly dont know how to go around with it. ethier way, im gonna try to do more art that makes me feel happy to draw. (fanart, Speesh Marines, and dumb stuff) however what i have been doing more blender related studys and modeling

WIP

i plan to make a fully rigged model as a milestone in my blender journey. i have been having fun in general with modeling

i want to submit at the very least a render of this bad boy for the upcoming Robotday 2023 event

if time premits, i would like to do a very short animation with it instead. granted might not happen with my pace of work on this (due to some life stuff)

on my drawing side, i have been working on a fanart piece of tom pulps "castle Crashers"

one of my favorites games that this community has produced. i hope to put my best foot foward with this drawing

WIP (no characters YET, gonna try the BG first then draw characters)

at the momment i have been sorta screwing around

right now im still doing more finishing touches on the current art piece for pico day. but at the moment i had some some inspiration and wanted to at least try to get back into practicing Blender

honestly i hope i can get this one actually done (i still have neglected tube mech in my hard drive :C)

so i'm still working on my OC now, i am changing it to just a regular drawing instead of a easter drawing like i initially intended, (rather not waste time since i won't be able to capitalize on holiday)

instead, ill be changing the Background to her showcasing her wares, (only got one thing, i might add more)
