I used to actually draw my own comic. Then I stopped for about 15 years and now all my art skillz are gone. I still draw stuff like this from time to time so I thought I'd post it here when I do, because DevArt has kinda become a cesspit but I'm not skilled enough to upgrade to something better. Older works can be found on my sig. At one point in time, right before I stopped making my comics, I would have actually evaluated myself as "somewhat good at this." Not anymore, LOL. You need to practice your art skills to keep them fresh.

EDIT: in the interest of making a good first impression, here is one of my old things from before I stopped drawing:

​

now that I've raised your expectations let's lower them XD All the rest of the stuff I post in this thread is actually current skill levels


Anyway, this is fanart for the Japanese light novel "My Death Flags Show No Sign Of Ending." I actually made this not because I'm particularly attached to this novel, but because the translator clued readers in to the fact that the author's novel is so unpopular in Japan that s/he was unmotivated to finish it, until the translator's western audience calvaried in with support and got the author some inspiration back, even though s/he couldn't read the English. Those kind of stories touch my heart so I threw in something of my own to add to it. This was done on Clairfontaine notebook with a Sailor MF-nibbed fountain pen, ink is Monteverde Midnight Black. I photoshopped it to be redder though, since... you can't see the beautiful Monteverde ink sheen on the scan anyhow.

Ah, I forgot - most of my sketching that I do these days is in direct relation to reviewing fountain pen inks. So I thought to compile a few of them and stick them together here.

​
 
Totally forgot I did this for Inktober one of these days... Relatively happy with how it came out because no presketching or any of that, just put the ink to the paper and blamo for once. Drawn with TWSBI Eco F nib fountain pen and Caran d'Ache Electric Orange ink.

 
wasn't happy with the costume, ganked some from instagram (I think official dnd artwork, but instagram... hard to track)



 
ruh roh the rest of the dnd crew saw the pics and liked them

here's the barbarian on request

 
more dnd request portraits...
warforged artificer



group is not done as I got 3 more players to go, but they wanted a group spread so I suggested this instead because i'm lazy af

 
we got the paladin update now . I hate drawing minotaurs and I hate drawing heavy armour so this is like my art kryptonite right here



and also the group update



the last member is a tiefling artificier and since I know neither what the player said their char looks like nor what tieflings look like in general it may be a while before the final update
 
man this is a marathon art day for me

tiefling artificier



updated group portrait... now to clean it up uggggg

 
Second time I've made one of these suckers. Just permanent marker - it works, it lasts, it's cool, and nobody will steal your kid's freakin' umbrella in the school because Captain Obvious XD

 
been a while eh? another one shot character with a costume taken from card captor sakura

​
 

no idea what was here before, have some other artwork I did then

Happy 2022! First drawing of the year in steps! This design is based off of someone elses' artwork that I found on pinterest; I really don't do costumes. It wasn't a werewolf picture though, which is why I changed the pose redrew it :)
