#rocketbook

A material test and art for a fanfic involving the Treasures of Ruin, called As Above, So Below,. I'm sort of piloting a cool idea I had for my fanfic, which is incorporating my art. Since that's where my muse wants to go.

I figured that I'd combo it with figure drawing and a test of my Frixion pens (fineliners and wedge tips) on Rocketbook's reusable notebooks.

I love using these pens overall - bright colors and erasable ink is honestly great on normal paper. I'm now using them exclusively in my planner because it's bright but I can change things up if needed. I also am using my rocketbooks (bought on sale, so half off, haha!) and they have their challenges but it appeals to my recycling heart to not have to buy a new notebook or "waste paper." I was sort of hoping to use my graphing one for art practice or very colorful pen art.

I was disappointed. The scanning app did not like the markers, and the phone camera could only do so much. The colors got washed out. The markers also smudged on the rocketbook paper even when I used a special glove. Putting marker on top of marker didn't work out well - basically like a whiteboard.

The rest is due to my own artistic inexperience, but this was ultimately a material test and a way to express my OC/an OC that is only sort of half mine.

I arranged the images in photoshop to create depth and drama and cleaned it up, but I didn't put too much effort into it. I used Quickposes for pose references.

Anyway late game cult of the lamb doodles

Also the Lamb being a bastard among their trophies

They're usually pretty steep ($30 or more) but they're down to around $16 right now.

Rocketbooks are those notebooks you can use, scan, upload to a cloud service, and erase with a little water making them really handy for folks who want to play RPGs but switch games a lot or just are nervous to commit a whole notebook to a given game.

I've been eyeing a smaller executive sized one for a year now and decided to grab one to experiment with my next Over the Mountain game and maybe try Bullet Journaling in. It's inspired me to make a more cellphone friendly version of the OtM rule set soon and maybe experiment with some dice rolling apps so that I could play in a very stream lined way but still hands on way.
