Numnzel's Lair

Hello! How long has it been since the last time? I don’t know either! But here it goes a new drawing.

Although I don’t think it’s the style I want to expertize, the process has been interesting and different than the usual. Took 8-12h approximately in Clip Studio Paint.

About what it is, I has some personal meaning, but I don’t think I can even explain it.

Hope you like it.

Have a good day.

Hello ghosts, long time without posting...

Did a try on Clip Studio Paint instead of Photoshop, not totally disgusted, but not conform with my first result. I get stuck every time through the painting and after it, so that’s why it feels unfinished.

Did also a lot of testing, but as always, I’m still not satisfied with my work process. Guess I need to watch some videos to get references.

Took aproximately 72h of work, too much for my patience.

Sometimes your definition lies deep inside you.

I guess I'm going to explain less than usual. Maybe because I don't want to define things that I may reconsider. And I admit that letting some things for personal interpretation could be interesting.

Well, I wanted to try a new style/work different than the usual, so I thought that would be interesting to present Agnus in a more personal way, or at least in the dark and sinister way I initially conceived it.

In this scene is presented but I actually don’t defined who is the spectator nor the place.

Hope you like it.

Well. This illustration took INSANELY longer than what I expected. There are multiple factors, one of them is because one creature (try to guess) has complicated shapes.

This is one piece of one 'universe' I have in my mind.

I will not enter in details (as some things may change), very basically they are an alien race, named by humans as 'GaRaKi' who, (for humans surprise) came from a human space-gate.

They vary in shape because their bodies have some sort of mutations/complex -multi dna that came from their progenitors that also developed in their early stages depending on their environment (temporal justification).

For now, their names are (excluding the bad-drawn human; from left to right): Libios, Morbassa, Agnus, Patha and Violette.

His species wander through space, and since actually they are very few individuals, they command huge armies of non-sentient biotic machines that do everything for them.

Even though there are several stages of development, these are all in the same stage.

Let me know your thoughts on this.

EDIT1: Added some pre-shadows/illuminations.

EDIT2: Added some sort of illuminations. Going to left this for now.

A request I made for a friend a year ago. A totally random dragon with seven heads.

Tried to make some illuminations. His legs should have been larger.

Next one, the plain one was the original concept, but ended being something almost completely different.

The ‘hair’ is meant to sustain an electric field.

EDIT: Because it was not finished, I took my time and did the remaining work. Now at least deserves to be here.

This was one of the first attempts of doing something significative with my digital tablet years ago. Tried making some illumination but don’t liked the result, so those two are the plain versions. Unnamed.

Hope you like it.

Well, I was reluctant of uploading my paintings until... today. (I guess the new year had something to do with this.)

Generally, I don’t make humans but demons, aliens, and all sort of strange things.

Having said that, I take this as an oportunity to learn and improve the most I can. So expect a variable style.
