More fiddling with acrylics. I love how you can just paint over black with them! But the camera shows me uneven parts I don’t see on the original. O_o Interesting.

Drawing for a Nintendo-Fan and friend. :) Fiddling with details now, since he knows the devices by heart and I only played with them. d:

Progress on the latest trade. :)
Definitely a big challenge for me. Why? Her creature is so COLORFUL! XD

No progress in the last few days sadly. Sneezing onto acrylics makes it only harder to work with them. d:

I was told to be around today morning, so they could call me when needed. No one called, I waited, and scribbled around with paintbrushes. Still no phonecall, so I’ll just scribble some more~. :’D

Somehow I feel like I just designed two new pokemons. O-o Busdrawings again.

Anonymous asked: Would you ever consider doing a design for a tattoo?

Actually, I’m doing that quite often in an indirect way. :) However: Since I’m not a tattoo artist myself I always tell the people to use my drawings as concept ONLY and let the tattoo artist redraw them so there won’t be any problems later.

I have little knowledge about how the color under the skin behaves after a few years or which colors are changing with time (as example: Never let a tattoo artist use red if you have dark skin. It will turn into a black blob within a few years). Thin lines will blurr a bit with time too. All those details have to be taken in consideration when a tattoo is designed. :)

Update on the carved tree. :)

Current commission work. :) Right now I’m covering the tree in carvings.

I’m still fiddling with it. Though I finally found newspaper that lets me apply it. Swiss Newspaper simply has a far too good quality for such stuff. d: It’s not quite it though. Maybe I’ll think of something later. And now it looks LESS like the Wendigo from Lost Souls and MORE like the Death of Cities (does not matter, love both books d: )
