MONICA DELGADO

Happy holidays ! ✨️😊

When you use magic whipped cream to create beautiful clothing for your little gingerbread friends. 🍬✨️

I don't know if you remember him but he's one of the Nutcracker trio I drew last year for christmas. I'm so fond of this universe.💖

from Elden Ring's dlc trailer. I released this illustration for #fantasybasel in Switzerland.

"Indeed, I am the witch Ranni.

I stole a fragment of the Rune of Death, and used it to forge the godslaying black knives through fearsome rite.

I did it all."

"I am Malenia. Blade of Miquella. And I have never known defeat."

Work (still) in progress ! Izar my OC 😌✨️💖

This was hard... haha 🙃 Doing a colorful work takes so much of my energy and that's also one of the reasons why I don't do it much. I tried my best to give it a warm and magical atmosphere. At first, I wanted something simple with flat colors and I ended up with the opposite, adding painting strokes instead. I would like to create something with a more restricive palette and refrain myself from going overboard in the future. That will be a challenge. 🫠

And a belated christmas theme post. 🙈✨️As I previously said, I love the nutcracker story and aesthetic and started to imagine an illustration based around those three nutcracker soldiers, each with their own personality and style. A bit like the three musketeers but in the Land of Sweets. ☺️

I really enjoyed working on this drawing, apart from the colouring, which was difficult. It's been such a long time since I did a colour illustration, but I'm glad I managed to finish it ! 😅 Also Tchaikovsky's music was with me every step of the way. I've listened to the whole suite over and over again so many times I can't count them ! Hehe 💖

Thank you for following me and again Happy New Year to you all ! 🤗✨️

This is a remake of an illustration I did in 2013 that was called "Up in the Sky". It took me nearly two years to create it. I left it aside several times to work on other things. 😬 I had an idea in my mind you see, but it was difficult to bring it to life. I took the opportunity to experiment a bit and added some painterly shades of grey.
