hi, just found your blog and you are an amazing artist, when are you gonna do pax?
Thiiiis is a really late reply sorry!
I plan on tackling a bunch of the other characters, Pax should be in either the next set or the one after that (vague, sorry). I have a few characters I have really strong visual ideas and plans for, and my goal is to get to them as soon as I can, and once I’m done with that to get through as many main characters and fan favorites as I can before I burn out on it.

Got so much fucked up shit going on right now that doing anything that takes effort feels like it’ll break me, but on the upside, 17-year-old-me would have killed to be able to just sit down and paint like this so it’s a reminder not everything is terrible.
Photoshop brushes masterpost
Links to all the brushes I currently use (I often delete whole chunks of a brush pack but the ones I use come from these):
Hannes’ brushes
Shaddy’s brushes
Holepsi’s brushes
this one Pheberoni brush
Durian brushes**
this brush by SandroRybak
my brushes:

download link - the hair cheat brush*, the filthy pen for sketching lines (the lineart brush I’ve been using for the last few months), and the blobby marker for loose sketch shading
*This brush is derived from a much older brush I cannot track down. I also have a handful I think are from Linda Bergkvist and Kimushii that I cannot locate either the original abr set for (my backups from my old HD only seem to include a massive set of unlabeled, disorganized brushes I regularly used), or an active download link for. For obvious reasons I haven’t included them here, but I do still use a few of them in painting from time to time.
**This set is big. A little too big. Be ready to prune out all the ones in it you will never use. I personally prefer smaller, more focused sets, but I’ve been using a few of these very regularly so it seemed more proper to link it.

Art v Artist meme!
I’m a pretty strong believer that most folks emphasize (often very unnoticeable until compared) lines in their art based on their own face and what they like about faces. That said I have no idea how anything I draw looks like me, especially since I had to scrounge around just to find a selfie where my eyebrows looked less desperate than ted cruz’s.

WIP (please don’t reblog?)
why am I starting something new when I have a bunch of wips I’m almost done enough with to post, why am I doing this late at night on a weeknight why am I starting painting when I told myself I’d just thumbnail it -- why is this all on one layer?
