Indeed. It's fun to watch your skills grow over time.
Alas poor Photobucket. I knew him Horatio, a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy.

Always good to be welcomed back. :thumbsup:

Rather...funnily(?) I've been more productive this last year with physical media. There's more than a few (dozen) pages of Battletech-related stuff that I've been doing, but those are an absolute nightmare to digitize with my current situation.

It's that Corvid thing, seems either your " stuck " bored at home, or time flies so slowly that when you do notice it's lunch time, your thinking it's dinner time instead!

( I know the feeling, played for 6 hours straight Fallout 4, thinking dinner. I started at 10 AM! )

It's even worse than that, I'm just finding working analog to be faster than digital painting.

But on that note, I had ginned this up for an EVA thing:

And some overlap while I work out how I want the Otomo to look:



Incidentally, finally compositing the features for this thing after far too long.

It's a neat little horror story and the descriptions of the Black Marauder certainly fit the art shown, that ghostly sort of coloration and lineart.

That would be HikageMaru. But unfortunately, he no longer does them as he may have left years ago.
