Here's a progress gif of how I finalized the Chiaki sticker for the Chapter 4 Kickstarter reward! I really enjoy doing these kinds of illustrations, faux screen prints with little bits of off-register overlap look really pleasing to me.
If you didn't back the kickstarter, you can still become a late backer and pick this sticker up from the...
2020-10-17 16:52:43 +0000 UTC View PostI haven't been sketching on the iPad much lately so I haven't had progress videos, but I did this sketch recently so I wanted to share it! The Barbarous Chapter 4 Kickstarter backers voted that they wanted a sticker of Chiaki as a reward, so I got to design her as a matchbox-style sticker! I think the final version came out pretty cute, I'll sha...

2020-10-08 16:28:54 +0000 UTC View PostWe've been sitting on these tiling maw designs for a while now (for a project that still hasn't happened whoops haha) and I was really excited to be able to show them off somewhere! I'm a big fan of geometric shapes, especially so for stickers because they can look really clean and eye-catching when they're used.
These are going to b...
2020-10-02 17:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostI wanted to share the next steps of the Clyde sticker - after cleaning up the sketch, I roughly dropped in colors, then did a clean pass of them all where all the colors were separated on their own layers. Afterwards I'll do a "de-registered" pass, where I slightly offset all the colors (to fake a screenprint look) and add a texture.
I'm r...

2020-09-22 16:47:44 +0000 UTC View PostI finished a big NDA freelance project so now I'm back onto designing kickstarter rewards! The Barbarous Chapter 4 collection kickstarter backers voted for a sticker of Clyde as a reward (the former-feral cat who lives in the basement), so I'm designing him today!
The bottom-left version is the one I decided to polish for final, so a...
2020-09-18 18:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostThat's the end of Chapter 5! We've got a small bumper comic to follow, and then we'll be announcing what's next!
2020-08-31 22:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostI completely finished coloring this page and then realized that the palette was TOO SIMILAR TO THE PREVIOUS SCENE AND THE SCENE TRANSITION SEGUED POORLY!!! SO I COMPLETELY RECOLORED IT AAAA
I'm actually really happy with how the new version of the scene came out (greener teals, shading with red instead of purple - it now feels like it's th...
2020-08-28 17:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostA few people seemed interested so I colored the sketch of Byleth from last week haha - it was really nice to just finish something for the heck of it. The brush I used is my usual pencilling brush (Kyle Webster's "sketch pencil rough" — it's also the Barbarous pencil brush, I like it a lot because it has a very natural mechanical pencil feel t...
2020-08-21 18:01:35 +0000 UTC View PostA bunch of folks seemed interested in having this page as a wallpaper so I exported out a phone and desktop version of the page! I hope you enjoy!
2020-08-19 17:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostAnanth and I started playing Fire Emblem: Three Houses RIGHT at the beginning of quarantine and after playing for a tiny bit most evenings we're nearly half-way through our second play-through. (We were advised to do Blue Lions > Golden Deer > Black Eagles, so we're on our deer run!) I wanted our Deer-Byleth to be a little different ...
