I have finished Sketchbook #11!

Yes, I'm claiming an entire sketchbook as my "Finish a WIP". (I still have one more drawing on my "Finish a WIP" list that I may or may not get to by the end of the month.) I started this sketchbook back in April, but by the beginning of September was only about of a third of the way through it. When this challenge came out, I realized that if I just did one or two drawings every day, I could finish this thing. (I hated this sketchbook because it was too small and cramped, so this frees me up to work in other sketchbooks that I like more.)

post at my journal with every single page of Sketchbook #11

Current Mood: accomplished

eye_of_toad

Title: Jared Padalecki
Artist:

Rating: G
Fandom: Supernatural
Characters/Pairings: Sam Winchester
Content Notes: colored pencil layered over alcohol marker

I forget which season this publicity photo was from, but his expression amused me at the time and it was one of the first drawings I did in Sketchbook #1. (I've had many "sketchbooks" in the past, but I always tore out pages I didn't like until there were no pages left. 2017 was the first year that I vowed to fill up sketchbooks without tearing any pages out.) I hated the initial drawing and tried again in 2018 and was super impressed with my improvement, so after that it became a tradition to re-draw Jared Padalecki every year or so using the same publicity photo as a reference to see if I noticed improvement in my art.

I'll be posting more meta thoughts on my own journal, but the short version is that I don't think colored pencils are really my medium of choice, nor is realism my prefered style. I think it's good as an exercise to test myself once in awhile and see how realistic I can make something, but this is not my happy place and I think I'll be going back to more stylistic drawings for the most part.

Current Mood: tired

Another WIP process, for a work I've been planning since mid-June. This one was for the Sunflower auction for Ukraine, and my recipient had some specific wishes. They wanted a Harry Potter artwork, and suggested several prompts within this fandom. I chose the following one and we discussed the details in a series of emails. My recipient didn’t want movie canon characters, and also preferred them to be older, in mid-life, so I researched the wikis and we conferred about appearance details from book canon. This summary was the result:

Draco Malfoy and Theodore Knott as friends, aged about 40, in a manor house room, dark atmosphere (I made this Malfoy Manor). Theo has fairly recently been released from Azkaban. Theo has dark blue eyes and fairly short (but not prison short) "mouse-brown" hair, and he looks "rabbity" (a slight overbite, I guessed). Draco has longer pale blond hair, grey eyes and a "triangular face". They're wearing interesting wizarding robes.

I went through my usual process in building up the pic, with an additional final digital process as the art was to be provided digitally, as a jpg file and an AO3 post.

Overall, I guess it took about 5 days from the collage stage, until posting to AO3.

Rating: G
Fandom: Overwatch
Characters/Pairings: Genji/Mercy
Content Notes: I screwed up the layers on TWO of these panels and it took a lot of tedious fiddling to fix, so I was glad for the WIP challenge to make me finally work on it.

mekare

Title: Sleeping in Golmud
Artist: Mekare
Rating: PG
Fandom: Grave Robbers‘ Chronicles/DMBJ
Characters: Zhang Qiling
Content Notes: originally this was a very small pencil sketch in my sketchbook that I intended to paint in watercolour. I told someone about it in May (and they‘ve been waiting ever since…). I went for a grey coloured pencil on black paper instead which made it a lot easier to achieve the dark and threatening atmosphere I wanted.
