i know its been upwards of a year since u drew the fe3h post nemesis battle hugs but can i just say thank you for drawing that bc its so brilliant. the lines of their bodies convey so much emotion it gets me weepy every time.
oh my god thank you so much!! those drawings have connected with so many people and I'm so glad that my silly little wish of having a bit more of a celebration after defeating the final boss became those drawings that have brought me and a lot of people joy!
they're still some of my favorite things i've done!
Thank you so much for commissioning me! It’s been a dream!
I have indulged in an art commission, and it was such a wonderful experience! Highly recommend if it is ever in your budget. This is the Godsfall (@letterstosestrilles) party at their most badass, done by the incredibly skilled @squeaksquawks, whose ACOFAF art I adored when it crossed my dash and who was an absolute joy to work with.
(Tragically tumblr can't handle the higher res image, but this is gorgeous enough to get a look at.)
I love the line weight in a lot of your drawings! I'm interested to see what kind of brushes/settings you use. Great work!
AHHH thank you so much!! So the short answer is that I'm constantly changing brushes, but I do come back to the same pencil set and the same pen set constantly, so I'll just link you those!
These were some of the first pens I downloaded off the asset store when I got CSP, and I LOVE them because they're sooo crunchy! I hate when a digital pen feels "too smooth". I generally use both set to 30, but I'll go a little bit smaller or up to 60-80 depending on the size of the drawing.
This pencil set is what I do the majority of my sketching in, and any digital charcoal pieces I've ever posted have been done with the hard and soft charcoal in this set! They're the best, most life-like pencils I've come across and I come back to them constantly!
as a little bonus I also recently found this AMAZING ms paint pencil - I was truly obsessed with ms paint as a kid and no digital pencil has ever hit the same. this feels exactly like the original! I'm definitely gonna make an effort to use it more in final renders.
Something to keep in mind too is that when I'm erasing, I generally use the same pen/pencil I'm already using set to transparent, like down below:
Last but not least pen pressure!!! I'm going to tell you a secret: I don't know how pen pressure works exactly and I feel like it's too late to ask. this is what feels good to me! I don't like to press too hard to keep my wrist healthy.
Thank you so much for asking!! I hope this is helpful in some way!!
My personal life has been a bit hectic recently, so I have a bucket full of WIPS in the pipeline! We've got a Leliana pinup, my annual Circe Winter Palace outfit design, and some OC stuff I've been toying around with on top of a BOTW screenshot redraw I did for fun, my attempt so far to clean up that imogen/laudna drawing, and a little Fenris with Hawke's favor idea I've been messing with!
I usually don't tag people on these things, but I'll try it out! I'm tagging @purahs, @hajima-7 and @layalu !
You know my favorite thing about my fire emblem post battle hugs art is people repeatedly going “I AM NOT TAGGING ALL OF THEM BY NAME” in the tags because you know what…completely understandable thank you for any and all attempts
