A drawing of my Gaismagorm-inspired Tiefling, Vaska, that I did in order to practice and study lighting and shading techniques. I think he turned out very well!

local colors!!!! relative hues!!!! listen I love a good adjustment layer they are so helpful especially when you need to work fast. but I also love picking special colors myself so here is a crash course in that--as I understand it, anyway.

Really on a roll with drawing angels again! I decided to draw Jehoel, the seraph of fire, cleansing, and presence.

Perhaps it's a bit odd to use a lot of blue on an angel whose dominion is fire, but blue fire is the hottest kind of fire so I think it works well. I also tried to make her skin look like smoldering ashes and embers. Her serpent tail is somewhat modeled after a cobra, but really I just aimed for a sleek look.

Overall, I'm happy with how she turned out!

I have once again drawn an angel. This one is Kokabiel, angel of the stars! I've drawn my OC-ified interpretation of Kokabiel before, but she's gone through a bit of a design update since then so I thought why not draw her again?

She was a lot of work, but I am very happy with the results!

I started this Somsnosa as part of a color palette challenge. I ended up deviating from the original colors in the challenge, but still tried to keep the soft atmosphere.

I like to imagine Somsnosa as being weirdly “normal” looking. And by normal, I mean human. Only really odd thing about her is the whole blue thing. Just seems funny to me to have a bunch of weird dudes and then her.

Anyway, just Dedusmuln left to do!

Am I done posting Hylics art? Nope! Not when I just beat both games!

Have yet another Pongorma, my favorite of the main four! Yes I’m still sad about Absent Moon

Anyway. I do plan to draw and post the final two party members as well. Might as well do a complete collection!
