Figured quick gem render recipe for myself, sharing bc why not

I needed a quick way to go from non-transparent grayscale, so here you basically start with bw non-opaque rock without details

"dramatizing" is just glare + gradient on some planes

I hope you don't mind me asking but I just wanted to ask what brushes you're using :Dc and what are their settings if you're comfortable sharing. Your lines have so much control and dynamics to them! Very lovely work!

You’re so kind thank you!! Well to be honest all 3 of my brushes are quite chunky 😅 I think what helps is warming up/practice more than brushes BUT I will totally share them regardless:

The Comics MaxPack - MaxU Ballpoint Pen brush for sketching and line work; I use the same brush as my eraser for when I’m cleaning up edges or sharpening points & tapers

The Procreate Nikko Rull for rough and textured painting

The Procreate Soft Brush for soft gradient painting and wispy goodness

*I don’t adjust the settings on any of these as I’ve found I like the way they are!

There’s not enough space to post all of them, SO here’s links to everything he has posted (on twitter) so far : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12. 

Now that new semesters have started, I thought people might need these. Enjoy your lessons!

Yet another addition to the ASOIAF x Harry Potter AU that I’m way too overly fond of. I tried changing things up a bit by creating this piece in Procreate for once (I usually try for Photoshop whenever I do have the urge to draw anything digitally). Although I despise the idea of only having up to 130 layers open in Procreate, the choices for brushes is way better compared to what’s available for Photoshop on the iPad. Had lots of fun messing around with the brushes for this piece which is always a plus! Anyways moving back on topic, I decided to go with more of a portrait feel for this new piece of Fem!Harry or Harriel as I like to refer to her. I decided to go with a green color scheme for this one instead of any Targaryen colors when compared to my last post (there’s also another animal in addition to the dragon motif in this new post as well). I might try my hand on a more Gryffindor look for a future piece (maybe I’ll make a stag inspired piece too if I’m able too). Anyways onwards to more fem Harry shenanigans!

I finally finished it, and a bit faster than I expected. This is my first Fem Harry piece and my first HP piece of fanart to boot (and it did come out better than I expected). For a while I had this urge to draw a Harry Potter x A Song of Ice and Fire crossover piece (partially due to reading A Stranger in a Strange Land by QuillQ on AO3) which I’ve finally had the chance to create with some free time recently. I fell hard for the Peverells being one of the families that once inhabited Old Valyria and somehow found their way into the Harry Potter verse, probably due to also having some insight of the doom that would come to Old Valyria trope (come on, how is it possible that Daenys was the only one to have the vision of the doom occurring). Seeing as how the Potters descend from one of the Peverells (along with the Slytherins + Gaunts, which is something I wish to cover in some other future piece, trust me on that) I gave Harry a dragon motif for her dress (there’s also another animal but I’ll just leave it up in the air for now). In this headcannon of mine I like to think Harry would be named Harriel (of course those that know her well she would go by Harry). There’s this AU (multiple for this crossover now) I’ve been attempting to flesh out, but for now I just have this. For the most part I was mainly focusing on Harriel herself, but the background was a plus with the way it came out. Hopefully I can create some additional pieces for this concept sometime soon.

I’m alive 🙌

Have a sneak peek of my current project, it’s not strictly ASOIAF content only (it’s more like a crossover, I blame fanfiction). I’m planning on working on the background next unless I get bored working on said piece which will most likely end up as a sketch dump. Still not all that convinced on some of the details in the dress, but I’ll make do with what I have.

Here we go! I’m finally done with this sketch dump, granted it took longer than I thought it would to complete this. I’m just happy I actually finished this and didn’t end up adding it into my WIP folder. With that aside this mainly consists of fem!Lucerys (yea I fell hard, but then again when do I never fall hard for a genderbent character, especially with what could’ve been). There is some Rhaella though (yay to that, I just really love Rhaella) so that’s a plus! We also got a little Arrax so woo-hoo to that too! :D

Besides that though, I also have a little family tree of any hypothetical children Lucemond might end up having in this AU of mine.

Oh wow, am I finally posting something after a 2-3 month hiatus? Why yes, yes I am. Now even though this is a sneak peek and not the full piece, Rhaella has always had a sweet spot in my heart when it comes down to ASOIAF characters. Still have one-two more things to touch up on this piece, but hopefully I’ll be able to post it up before the end of this month!

Ok, I swear it this time. This is the final edit of my Winx OC. As for her character info. that has changed drastically compared to the one I had for her a couple of years ago. Initially she was meant to be a nature fairy with a color scheme similar to that of Flora, but that isn’t the case anymore. Now I kind of view her as more of a celestial fairy, almost a little similar to Stella, but I see her powers being more broad. As for her name that has also changed as well. Her new name is Citlali which is very fitting for her as a character. I plan on drawing the other oc’s that were also a part of this group some time soon, so this will act as the first installment of a batch of pieces.

Finished a piece recently! This is a revamped design of an oc that I created back in 2013. A lot has changed, but I’m glad that the execution came out so well! I may edit it a little bit more, but this is the final result for now.

Fanart of Laena that I was working on! It’s finally done😭

Anyways this might be the last piece that I create on Colors Live for some time, I’ve been experimenting more in Adobe (fresco and photoshop) and it’s been a learning experience besides the editing factor. Other than that I also wish to experiment more on Pro Create as well. Hopefully this can be a feasible resolution that I can accomplish in the coming year.

Besides all of that though, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year 🎊
