Here is the video process for the “Tink” sketch I did.
I want to get to the point where I am drawing everyday … eventually I will get there. This was the first drawing I did with that in mind. Also I am linking a video that Procreate automatically recorded while I was working on it…
It’s been a while since I have posted anything… or drawn anything for that matter. This past weekend I took a couple of hours out of my day and sat down at a local coffee shop to change that. Here is the unfinished (and probably will remain that way) iPad drawing I did. I had the learning curve of using a new program as well that I am finding I love the more I use it called procreate. Let me know what you think!
Being a fan of Game of Thrones I wanted to try my hand at drawing a realistic picture of Khaleesi. I spent a little longer on this portrait than I usually do… I think this one came in at about 7 hours from start to finish. Although I didn’t capture her likeness as well as I would have hoped, I did however learn to push the app I was using (Sketch Club) in order to get the more out of it.
Here is the final image:

In many ways, I am glad 2012 is finally over. It’s been a rough year… but all that is behind me I hope for the most part. There were some amazing things that did happen albeit overshadowed by the no so amazing events… I’ve branched out and met some wonderful new friends. Reconnected with a lot of family and friends from old. As well, after a lack luster effort on my part at the last Toronto ComiCon, I’ve started setting aside time every day to draw and improve what I do.
Below are the final images I finished and forgot to upload here … or are WIP’s that I am calling “done” only because I want to start on something new. The majority of the reference came from one of Kato’s pages… www.steampunkcouture.com or www.facebook.com/steampunkato
I just finished this drawing fan art image of Marceline on my iPad. I love how the creators of the show are willing to change things up, not only within the world itself, but also with the characters. The very fact that there are X number of different hair and clothing styles for Marceline alone impresses me so much. I will be drawing her again for sure… reference is off Kato’s site www.steampunkcouture.com
I forgot to post this after finishing it a few weeks ago. Referenced from a photo off of steampunkcouture.com
Trying again… to teach myself how to paint. After watching a couple of videos my friend Bill shared… as well as re-watching a couple of tutorials of another friend of mine Marco made… I did this. I know there is something “off” with it… but I can’t seem to figure it out yet… so I am moving on to the next project and posting this.

I did this drawing as part of a Sketch Club challenge. The rules were simple… use 5 lines, no more. Here is how this drawing was broken down. First I laid down a background fill. My 1st line started on the girls profile, where I worked it into her eye, then hair, headphones and a quick suggestion of a torso. The 2nd line was used for the dark grey. I then used the eraser tool to bring back the highlights and cleanup for the 3rd line. The 4th was the text “groove”. Apparently I used the 5th line somehow… but I have no idea where it might have been.
I enjoyed this challenge… and I like the result. I think I might try a couple more of these contour style drawings again soon.
