Mitchelf's Citadel

Aurang

For those that found far too late that hell does indeed exist, the only salvation is oblivion.

Second Apocalypse (Novel series)

Acrylic on 11x14 canvas

Quick update post to say I'm still alive and working on the next painting. Classes have been nightmarish the past couple weeks, but I did really well on my finals so far (98% and 100%)

May Ink Drawings

A Wunderful Round of Croquet

Invited to a game of croquet in a garden grown from flesh and blood, Alice reaps a harvest of her own...

It seems shes having a cracking time.

Wax Modeling Project + Preview + Bonus Sketches

Haven't been online and haven't had the ability to paint much the past couple weeks due to school projects and doing some cat sitting at a house that was partially under construction. I'm back at my work station now, and work in underway on the next big painting. In the mean time, here is a wax modeling project I did for school, some sketches, and a preview on the next painting.

Rote Sonnenblumen

Seeing a flower a day keeps the madness at bay...

Changeling Soul

Marina summons the support she never had, only to see it torn apart again and again keeping her safe. It doesn't matter, she always has more blood to give, as that part of her never truly dies.

We're making it out of Prehevil with this one.

Certified Termina Moment - Fear and Hunger: Termina

Wunderland White Rabbit + Bonus Sketches

Image 1: The White Rabbit is really and truly out of time...

Image 2: A great example of why you shouldn't follow strange women into the woods. My take on a Dryad.

Image 3: A Halberdier that held the line.

Image 4: Photo of my sketchbook with materials

Original - Ink and Colored Pencil in sketchbook

I was traveling for my vacation and only had space to bring my sketchbook, a couple fine liners and crayola colored pencils. I originally wanted to get these done in time for Easter, but unfortunately I had to do my taxes and get other things in order yesterday. In any case, I guess it fits the theme of always being late!

POV: Card Charge + Bonus sketch

Card guards of the club variety are far larger, stronger and more aggressive than many of the other abominations that make up the crazed, disorganized mobs that Queensland sends against Scarlet Land and even as far as to the borders of the Empire of Smiles. Their howling charges are known to disrupt infantry, disordering or maybe even breaking them before the true harvest for the queens garden can begin...

They have also been known to charge Imperial pike formations head on, which often leads to them getting more holes in their torso and far fewer bags of mulch than they expect...

Bonus Sketch: Alice enjoys her tea in the morning - Ink and colored pencil on sticky note. I made this while studying for finals and I think my mood really bled into it.

Colored pencil doodles

No big project this week as I have been busy with school (shocking, I know) but here are some doodles I made in my notebook with a ballpoint pen, crayola colored pencils and a white fineliner.

Bathory in Wunderland

Another mad woman travels through both time and the looking glass, eager to get back her youth...

You shouldn't have said her name three times in the mirror.

The Hills have Eyes

Another beast heart given to the fire.

The eyes on the hills seem to make the air cold despite this.

They appear harmless and the beasts behavior seems more docile around them.

Something within me does not like the thought of their gaze upon me while I sleep.

Portrait of a Femcel

Tomoko rots in a hell of her own making...

New Wunderland Smoke Spot

In the back of an abandoned library, Alice and Diena finds someone else who is not supposed to be there...

Artists Note: Have been sick and busy with school recently, so there wasn't any upload last week. Actual paintings also take so much time! They are much more rewarding, and I think Alice turned out really well in this one! Next time I will use a bigger canvas for a scene like this.

Queensfront

"I know others have told you this before, but do not take any contracts to do with the conflict in scarlet land. Yes, the pay is triple for half the time and with objectives that seem reasonable. The thing is, reason doesn't apply when fighting against those black hearted bastards and their false queen - they have no values or thoughts other than to remove the head of anything that moves…"

(There is an awkward pause as the man's eyes glass over)

"Oh, and the pay is only as high as it is because barely anyone survives. Out of the several hundred that made the march a couple years back, less than a dozen of us made it back to collect our pay. Most of the men have already wasted it all on drink as they lost their marriages soon afterwards. The nurse who saved my life and many others was committed to an asylum recently after having a fit of hysterics…after a child gave her a drawing of a heart. Point is, we all lost a piece of ourselves that we would have kept otherwise if we chose to go anywhere else.

Me? While I lost my life's work when the company disbanded afterwards. Even more tragically, I lost the ability to make jokes about Scarletlanders looking like dead fish"
