One more practice sketch for today:

[Cherry Lover]

Nice Sakura there.

[KAIZA]

So...had to make a custom GIF for Photoshop homework. Ran out of ideas, so I tried this:



Don't know if I'll manage to add color in time...or at all...

[KAIZA]

More drawing, because I need more practice!


I bet you can't tell which anime I'm watching this season.

So, I have to start working on my final project for Photoshop class. We were given a choice between one of three assignments: Graphic Design, Digital Illustration, and Photo Illustration. And since I'm horribly overconfident on my skills, I chose Digital Illustration. So, I have to take this:


(Image not to actual scale)
And paint over it until it looks pretty. Without SAI; Photoshop only. I mean, it's a good skill to have. And a challenge. We'll see how this turns out eventually.

[KAIZA]

So...remember how I said the above^ was gonna be my class project? Well, complications arose because I suck at doing clean scanned lineart, and thus I decided to re-do it in Photoshop. That said, I wanted some practice first, because Photoshop. One thing led to the other, and, well...



I guess I'll be doing a different character for my class project.

 Here's the image so far:



I still have to do some corrections given by my teacher and some touching up.

[KAIZA]

Well, I've worked on it as much as I could, tried adding all the corrections the teacher asked...and she's still not satisfied with it. Frankly, I'm out of ideas for this one. I could ask for feedback here, but unfortunately, I can't post the full-sized version (CMYK and A3, way too big for imgur) for better feedback. Alas, I guess this will be the final version:

Spoiler for Hiden:

And also, started working on this a few days ago:

[SINIB]

Nice Metagross!

[KAIZA]

Nice Metagross!

Thanks.
And now it's finished!

[Alice]

That's really damn good KAIZA! Feel good about yourself!

[KAIZA]

So I'm finally out of college, and must now endure the horrible process of job-hunting. Again.
In the meantime, did I ever tell you I joined Smogon? Well, if I didn't, I joined Smogon. And I've done a few arts for them, though for now, I'll post these two banner arts I made, because my thread dying and dropping from its position makes me sad.

I need to draw more.

[KAIZA]

It's me again! Boy, has it been a while. IRL stuff, plus artist block and other issues aside, it's good to finally update with content, even if some of it is very old. =w=
Let's start with some old Smogon art I haven't posted here.

Spoiler for Hiden:

Now for something a bit more recent, there's some doodles I made a couple days ago, as well as my design for Smogon's Create-A-Pokemon 20 (made it 16/31...that's gotta count for something, right?).

Spoiler for Here be doodles:

Spoiler for CAP 20 - Squid Battleship:

And finally, something I tried drawing last night. I wanted to try something videogame-y, so I went to listen to some game music, namely Puyo Puyo (no idea why), and started drawing to see what came out. This is the result.

Spoiler for Lunatic Sorceress - Any similarities to Touhou are coincidental I swear:

It has been quite a while since I last came here, but I'm glad to see that your art is still looking fantastic. Loving the changes in contrast and the addition of shadows with your colour drawings

Thanks. ^^
Yeah, it's been quite a while since I've done anything. However, I did take on the Inktober challenge this month. Pretty fun, even if I had to catch up quickly due to me discovering it late.
Now, here be all my sketches, compiled into on single image for ease of view. Enjoy their varying quality and amateurish inking:
