Announcement plus art dump

Hail and well met nerds, geeks, and dorks. August here. I hope you all have been doing well.

I know that I haven’t posted since October and I am so sorry about that. I have been pretty busy with life and writing multiple projects for nanowrimo and more. So I’m going to be changing my posting schedule to at least once a month. I’ll try to post more then that, but I won’t be posting weekly.

But there is some good news, because I haven’t posted in a while, I have a bunch of art to share with you!

I hope you guys enjoy. Leave a comment below, I’d love to talk to you! Remember, you’re going to be amazing. Look to the stars. Aim. Ignite!

HSMTMTS Halloween fanart

Hail and well met nerds, geeks, and dorks. August here. Today I’m here with another Halloween themed fanart and, honestly, in my opinion this one isn’t nearly as fun as my other one.

I did have fun playing with color palates and costume ideas, but the theme isn’t really as creative as my JATP one.

Julie and the Phantoms Halloween fanart

Hail and well wet nerds, geeks, and dorks! August here. I recently started the Netflix original Julie and the Phantoms and have become obsessd. So, like all other shows I’m obsessed with, I have to draw fanart for it. And, bonus, because it’s spooky season, I’ve added some Halloweeny elements.

It’s Nightmare Before Christmas themed! I honestly don’t remember why I wanted to draw this, but I think it turned out pretty well. And for reasons I don’t know, I decided to draw two versions. The one on the left has a gradient map and the right one is just the original drawing.

Yup, more HSMTMTS fan art

Hail and well met nerds, geeks, and dorks. Elle here. Happy October! I hope you have been slaying safe.

So, yeah. I drew more HSMTMTS art. Don’t worry, I may post other fan art this month that isn’t this show. Maybe.

Gradient maps

Hail and well met nerds, geeks, and dorks! Elle here. Today I’m going to share my experience with one of Procreate’s new features, gradient maps!

At first they confused me a lot. I had no clue what the heck you’re supposed to use these things for. But I eventually figured it out! AH you need to do is make your drawing in black and white then layer the gradient map over it.

So I wanted to share the three pieces I drew this week using gradient maps.
