Another one from this years Inktober. I really liked how these hands turned out.

Ballpoint on generic A5 sketchbook.

Considering I’m a Designer and a Materials Engineer, it’s an easy guess which BNHA character is my favorite ;)

Happy b-day, Momo!

FINALLY finished this. Had fun experimenting with noise ‘n’ stuff.

I was just going to colorize this sketch for kicks and got carried away.

Another process sketch for Virtual Gnd, a gamedev project of mine.

Tentacle heart tattoo study.

Best track from Sonic The Hedgehog 2 OST (the one for the megadrive)

Some more fanart based on the written lore of @orbitaldropkick.

I call this one “Lazy Traveler”.

“Ipreski was Prince Kassardis’ last and oldest wife, though barely by a few years. Despite her relative youth, however, her hair had already become white as snow. Some gossiped about how it was a curse from a vengeful sorcerer, for the offenses of the princess Ipreski’s family were broad, and no less horrible for their breadth.

Ipreski kept her white hair long, and bound up in coils that wrapped around her waist five times. She was exceedingly lazy, and would rather order one of her numerous and weary servants to fetch something than walk a mere five paces. She was pampered and fond of food and wine, and complained loudly if there was no place for her to lounge about.

This laziness of hers was a clever mask, for Ipreski kept all her energy coiled up inside of her like a spring. She was a master swordswoman, in the old tradition of her family, and her muscles were like steel cables. Such was her skill that she could kill a man and sheathe her sword before the first drop of his blood hit the ground. She had no need to pursue her opponents, for they could not touch her, and was instead content to wait until they came to their slaughter. This was the source and secret of her arrogance. She loudly mocked Kassardis’ other wives, especially the large and slow Littari, for she believed there was no chance they could beat her in open combat – and it was true.

It was only fitting, therefore, that the languid Ipreski was the last to set out in pursuit of the young prince in her palanquin, with her full retinue trailing after her.”

 I call this one “Raging Pulper”.

“Littari was Prince Kassardis’ second wife, and though she was not quite as young and vigorous as his wife Vastoki, nor as patient and wise as his wife Ipreski, her bloodlust was the strongest by far. Where Vastoki was thin and lithe, and favored traveling clothes, Littari wore a full set of eidolon-wrought armor, which she cleaned and polished constantly, and gave her the appearance of a gargantuan demon. She was twelve spans tall, and had enormous teeth. Her bulging muscles meant tailoring for her was a nightmare for her maids, so she spurned their service, and preferred to travel with her cook, sandal bearer, and sword-master only.
Littari was far too strong to use a sword, for any normal weapon would break and shatter with the immense force she put upon it. Instead, she dragged around with her a great and heavy iron cauldron, with which she would beat opponents to death quite savagely. It was to this pot which the prince’s other wives had promised to chain her and force her to serve as a scullery slave, and so she had taken an oath of revenge to pulp, cook, and eat them.
Littari was by far the least popular of the prince’s three wives, and so she only learned of his escape after the young Vastoki had started her pursuit. Nevertheless, by the second day, she was not far behind her quarry, and her steps shook the dust from the eaves of peasant homes as she passed.”

“First you must land your soul down here, child. Let it sublimate, and when it gathers form by addition of coalesced mass, use your aural vertexes to bring it through the crystal, as close as you can. It is common for it to take the shape of an insect or other small creature. Treat it dearly.”

An oldie, from 2014. The idea was to achieve certain morphological tendencies of the development of skull bones by gene splicing and controlled expression, mixing and matching species.
