My entry for the #cspcontest26 “The Best Smile.” Wow! 2020 is OVER. Needing some inspiration for the new year I thought I’d paint the Roman goddess Fortuna! She’s depicted here as a bringer of luck & yes... fortune :) 🤞May 2021 be a better year for everyone out there!!! Swipe left for the process video!

Annwen! In color and with a friend. It’s a little ghostie thing! I also included an example of this font I made on Calligraphr. It was so much fun to create! It’s called “Manga Mango.” To y’all aspiring mangaka out there I definitely recommend creating your own font. It really adds extra spice to your comics!

Another new character I’m working on. He’s a Golem, a creature from Jewish mythology: a living humanoid being made of clay. I designed him to be rock like so he’d be more dynamic & strong looking. Also, I love drawing blocky rock forms! Swipe left to see a close up on his sour-sad face! . . . . . . . #dyrpg #animestyle #animedrawing #anime #clipstudiopaintex #clipstudio #clipstudiodrawing #comicart #comicillustration #illustration #digitalart #golems #golem #mangaart #mangastyle #oc #originalcharacter #supernatural #supernaturalart #mythicalcreature #mythicalcreatures #mangahero https://www.instagram.com/p/B_2bKLFp4cC/?igshid=1wqpgydquqvzv
