no the last post wasn’t two years ago I have no idea what you’re talking about
so, hi! I’m going to attempt to get this blog active again so here’s to a second introduction: hi, I love the yakuza series a bit too much so I made this blog for it. Please submit posts if you have any ideas!
Posting something small for best boy’s birthday Finally working on a piece from last March ;v; I have a lot of yakuza and personal stuff in my backlog and I’m excited to finish a lot of them!
A painting I’ve been working on-and-off again on for a while! Ryuji’s just. Really, really fun to draw and work with.
(some artist commentary under the cut!)
It was really nice to be able to take my time with this! It’s been a while since I’ve done a painting without a deadline looming over me. Working on this really just. helped me shake off a lot of the dust on my skills.
Ryuji himself was painted on one layer, and the background on a different one. Doing digital paintings on one layer makes the process feel a lot more traditional. I try to avoid using the undo button whenever possible and instead just continuously paint over mistakes or areas I don’t particularly like and redo them.
I was thankful to have been invited to participate in a Majima Everywhere collab with many other amazing artists, hosted by @translucentchick! Be sure to check out the master post I reblogged earlier with the full collab image and artist credits! =3
