The vast of Cannibal Sea (pt. 2)
(Full spread here)Continuing!Sketch/Inks:
Gatekeeper Gostoc
True hero of the proletariat!Also: I starter pre-selling original drawings from the sketchbook on my Boosty. Check our details in the public post here - a slot for Albinauric is still available, and more characters ill coming next week!
The vast of Cannibal Sea (pt. 1)
(Full spread here)The amount of double page spreads I've made throughout my entire "career" could be counted on one hand's fingers, so each of them has special significance to me. And this one, being also the opening for the book I've been dying to draw for at least a year (closer to two years, probably)... The amount of responsibility I felt was pretty high - and phew, what I feel now is a great amount of content.Maybe sometime later I'll show you pencils for the multipl...
Knifin' away!
A nice big teaser of what's going on $3+ tiers ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)Process posts for both pages of this spread will go up soon!
+ some of our minor characters, too!
Not as much of a lush production as the previous one, but I find these little sketchy dudes so endearing (and nice to keep around in one big ClipStudio flipbook ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°))
TWO KNIVES IS BETTER THAN ONE
I really, really, really don't want to jinx this, but after almost six months that went without drawing a single page of comics (that was when I finished Katabasis, right?..), I'm starting to feel like I can and want to do it again. After finishing the page today I felt like Mads in the end of Another Round, no exaggeration.Maybe the fact that this "comic page" has only one panel helped, too? %)In no way this post should be considered an announcement, or even a concrete promise, ...
Fun with Cantata
Giving a bit of variety to the old portraits, as the game gets closer to Early Access
DD again
I've just noticed how terrible Patreon image quality for horizontal pieces is (when uploaded to main "body" of post, as I did prebiously), so here are both images again!
Daredevil homage commission (pt. 2)
And a pure B/W version!
Daredevil homage commission (pt. 1)
With my endless love for Ann Nocenti & John Romita Jr.'s run <3There's way too many photos of the process, so it will be continued tomorrow, but of course, I won't left you hanging without finished piece ;)
Cold
Doing something a bit more classy for the cool gig I'm finishing here!
Aguirre, the Wrath of God (commission)
After a long, long, LONG pause (what happened?%)) - commissions are back with a bang!I know that I can't stop launching new series of drawings and zines, but here are some movies I really want (need!) to get out of my system in 2022: Hard to Be A God, Possession, Fires on the Plain, To Kill a Dragon.So if you want any of those on your wall - let me know!Also - check this one side by side with the pencils:I was really worried about inking his face, because the sketch felt so incredibly on poi...
SOULS LOVE #3 so far
Right now I'm on a little crossroad: I can easily draw 20 characters from Elden Ring alone, but the format of previous two "volumes" asks for insertion of a few more characters from the previous games (and I have quite a few that I'd love to draw, no doubt about it).I guess we'll just see how I am going to feel after a few more drawings!Also, I'm thinking about opening a couple of limited slots fro Elden Ring commissions: one for an A3 drawing of Malenia, another... Hm, n...
Margit, the Fell Omen
Last one for now, my absolute favorite Old Fromsoftware Geezer design; flight back to Petersburg tomorrow!
Boc the Seamster and THE PEST
The cutest character of Elden Ring - and the most fucked-up mondter designed I’ve seen yet
Awoooooo!
Blaidd is the best dude
Elden Ringing
I have no mental faculties for figuring out what tier gets what and when, and I don’t even know if I’ll be able to print any zines anytime soon - but in these trying times, here’s an Iron Fist Alexander for you all ❤️❤️❤️
A Prostrated Deity
The famous Trakhanov "Soft Brush to Screentone" Pipeline ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Another Cantata character!
Pretending to return to usual broadcasting ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
21 days of "that thing"
A week of complete mist in my memory (where now I'm having real troubles trying to remember what exactly happened and when), another week of terror and tears, and then a week of numb nothingness (courtesy of Elden Ring). Thousands in Ukraine are dead, Ukrainian cities and towns destroyed; thousands of people in Russia detained, brutalized and tortured, stripped of their basic civil rights. Millions of Ukrainian refugees, and dozens of thousands terrified Russian fleeing the country, too. Sup...
(Pre)war housekeeping
Today my asinine country started a war, so I went to the post office and finally shipped kilograms of my original art - almost a year worth of different works, meant for different people - in hopes that the packages can make it out of Russia before we close our border, before the conflict escalates to the point where Russia goes into complete isolationist mode and puts up the Great Firewall of Russia, or some shit like that, yada-yada-yada.It's all so silly, and barely helps me to cope with ...
Another grandpa (in rewind)
Showing you a little reverse process of a new piece of secret work; this process is basically a more streamlined version of my color-to-tone-to-screentone method as it was seen here / here). ClipStudio is insanely good with it - 10 times better than my old MangaStudio was - so working in this style is pure pleasure for me.
Coloring Cantata
Well, a year or so later, I am done with the biggest chunk of my work for Cantata - most of the character portraits for campaign dialogues, as well as unit portraits for all in-game's faction (some of them were seen previously here and here). And I must admit - as someone who usually hates color work, I find coloring process with this particular project enamoring and immensely satisfying, making it my favorite part of the job (other than the complete creative freedom I have on the project it...
Aquaman commission
Some fun - and slightly unorthodox (although still seen multiple times before) - techniques on display here, so I guess it's a good time to remind you about one of the tricks!As seen on photos 2 and 3: I do the grey washes here with a water-based grey marker and watercolor; with watercolor specifically, I spill some water on the area I want to paint first, then do a few strategic touches of brush dipped in dark paint, letting it flow and spill. Then I close it with a sprinkle of simple kitch...
Blade, the Daywalker commission (+ photo of my little helper)
A really good companion for my Robbie Reyes commission, imho!
Knives Up - scrapbooking
Ever since the Big Career Trauma (also known as release history of Protector*/First Knife**) happened to me, I've been feeling gradually more and more disgruntled for the American comics industry, as well my own place in it (if not in the medium itself); and I knew that this mix of emotions and thoughts was quite far from being adequate - even with the list of grievances as justified as mine - because it didn't just made me wary or cautious, but caused me a great amount of self-doubt and...
Gene Wolfe
Man with the loveliest mustache in the business ^__^
SW zine: Week II
(Don't miss week I here!)Taking a couple of weeks of break from the series now to resat and focus on commission work - but damn, is this satisfying! ^___^
