I’m well into the third in the Heartwood Trilogy (Lilydale/Superior/Heartwood) and in Superior Micah makes himself a magical staff which I one hundred percent thought of knowing Myoku’s history as a staff wielder haha. This truly feels like his most evolved form, although there are places where I’m like, mm I could see him coming […]
Well…the worst case scenario has happened. My dad planted the idea in me to turn Lilydale into a series and…well, that’s working out. So that’s most of the art that I’ve been doing lately, but honestly what art could I possibly need to do ever again tbh, they’re perfect And THEN…I was getting underway with […]
I was starting to realize how that fancy Micah painting I did earlier this year looks good (kind of awkward though), but isn’t really comparable to other Micah portraits I’ve done over the years. So I endeavored to make a more anime style one that compared better thinking it would take several days plus, but…I […]
Yeah so it’s been done for like six weeks at this point but I still can’t get out of the Lilydale brain rot. I did two revisions myself and now my dad has it! And so far his comments have been totally what it’s needed. I have a good feeling about this project.Even my supervisor […]
I can’t believe it! Three weeks later, I’m done with Lilydale. It rounded out around 45,000 words. I think it’s my favorite conjunction of characters forming new relationships. I literally didn’t bother coming up with any new characters except for Sam and Micah’s evil faerie mom. Micah and Ingrid are half-siblings now. Ingrid and Andrew […]
After trying and failing to read like 3 different books I finally decided it was time to put into action my do-over for Andrew and Micah to fall in love. When Ryan was reading Code: Compromised he was really bothered by the teacher/student dynamic (he doesn’t understand it like I do) so I resolved at […]
I was working on my new layout when I remembered my first picture of Myoku Atem was done in 2002 2003, meaning this year that Micah is 20 years old next year. [edit] This felt incorrect because IT wAS inCORrectMicah’s 20 next year so I can save my emotions for next year. I mean, he’s […]
When I was looking at this just now it reminded me of one of my first go’s at digital coloring. Hilariously I even got the heart in the wrong spot. Also it’s the same character hehe. Anyway, who doesn’t love a glow-up? Literally.
I have had a refreshing turn of art this month, putting less pressure on myself, having more fun, getting more done. Any night I pick up my tablet I seem to be able to turn out three or four portraits of varying levels of completion. They’re not all great, but I’m still excited my productivity […]
