Sometimes I draw. More like never

So I'm doing this thing, whenever I get to complete a task, I write it down to track all that I've done so far. Partly because this encourages me to continue. Let's see May's progress regarding Infurubia:

Completed 5 sketched/part-lined CGs and all their variations I had since 2019-2020? From now on, it's all new CGs that need to be done

Coded the start of chapter 5(and regretted not optimizing the script beforehand...)

New backgrounds! There might be a bunch of variations, but these backgrounds will be used in what remains of the story. So far, one new sketch is done.

Back then, I considered commissioning some of these BGs as they contained house interiors etc, but I purchased ClipStudio, and their 3D tool is very helpful, even if I don't understand it completely yet, I think I can pull these myself.

Get to work on the next set of CGs, and pondering about the amount of them. I think it would be opportune to just code sprite art and use bunch of descriptions to avoid CG abuse(As long as it doesn't lead to drawing tons of sprite variations...)

Some previews

Also, it means I will be able to use this one finally(Now that I look this design better, I think the dark burgundy cape needs to be lighter...)

At some point, I want to make a visual novel compiling a bunch of small stories.

And no, not doing anything with these ones btw! Just showing sketches, ideas etc. Read the alts for some context :D

Doing summ commissions if anyone is interested!

There was this thought after so much time passed since I released the latest demo of Infurubia... "What if I retouch the artwork?" It's not like I draw waaay better now, but at least I can see the mistakes I made back then clearly.

But then I found this in my files, this was an attempt at that same thought back in 2022. It is clear to me that I would be wasting my time retouching the art JUST to see new mistakes in a few years.

I don't know if it happens to many peep who got OCs, I like my charas to have an age similar to the one I have at the time, so when I did TKOT I was in my mid 20s. Sometimes though, I like to think about how they would look if older. These sketches are from maybe last year? Except for the Corvus one that I just drew today. Instead of them getting lost in my drive forever, let me share them with you. Hope you can read my awful handwriting... or better, let's write it here(From youngest to oldest!)

Gervase(Should be 38?? but I would say 30-32 is more fitting) Now, when I did that drawing I thought "This should be him in his 30s!" But then I recently drew Corvus thinking something similar and my mind went blank. Sure, Corvus has gone through some shit... Maybe Gervase was younger(But turns out he was older according to my OWN notes...wtf) Anyway, these are just sketches for funs they are not legit... they are not real. There's room for improvement and consistency.

Corvus(33) is next, looking even deader inside. I think it is more evident if you see his bird form XD I always thought Os ending with him would cause both of them a lot of trouble, even if Corvus didn't hold a grudge like the other guys(Nobody has it easy because I say so!) Him looking a bit older than what he really is makes sense to me. His clothing should cover part of his forehead, as something that was there is not anymore and that's a secret(to everyone but you!)

Os(34) should be here, but I didn't like the sketches I had from her bc she looked too similar to the original :p

Voges(37, but physically he should look 27) looks good and youthful even if he is the oldest LOL(If you ignore Lilja ofc) There is a reason for his whole attire(In particular his new glasses) but just as everything is concept, so I didn't want to post info I might retcon at some moment(Like Gervase's age, as I'm ready to do it)

For Lilja 13 years is nothing so at best he changed his clothes.

OK, there's no way Gervase is older than Vosges. I swear I had sketches of young Corvus with young Gervase...

Yeah, def he was the youngest one. I wanted the contrast of the cute innocent kid that grows to be a slutty musclehead.

That's what I get for having his age in dog years...

I have Spring-themed comms going on rn. I have a promo going on too. Grab 2 commissions and get one free.

Hey everyone, a little store update.

So my country has stopped the service of tracked packages for orders that weigh less than 2kg, also I'm still unable to send to the US. It sounds crazy, I know, and many people already complained, but it seems nothing can be done about it since it was an overseas requirement. As you know, I always encouraged adding this service as some sort of warrant, since sometimes you guys order a lot, and I'm worried it might get lost. So I've decided, just for acrylic items, use a print-on-demand service based in China. Not only shipping may be more affordable, but they also provide tracking number, as far as I know. I added just a few products so far! I actually printed these standees locally

But the quality isn't as good as the ones they sell in China. I'm positive they will look better than this.

You can find them here!

My regular store will be open, but I recommend buying just a few things if you plan to do so, since, without a tracking number, I cannot do much for lost packages.

Doing YCH commissions again!

You can see more info here!

Dark Hair Sabine jumpscare

I was doing this coloring book thingy but every time I try I end up giving up. Dunno, in my head, it's always missing something.

Man, is so weird to see him with dark hair. As you know, originally the twins were meant to have dark hair, but I chose them to have it silver(almost white) because I wanted them to resemble old people.

Even so, dark hair Sabine should have a reddish tint while Priam a blue one.

Now THIS is the right cosmic order.
