Dragon Valley Special Episode 1

Read here if the images won't load

It might not be the most original idea but I decided to do a little non canon Human AU spin-off for Dragon Valley. I'll use a webcomic format for this bc I wanted to try it for a while but had no opportunity.
I'll link this in th...

Bonus Comic: Three Lies

To quote the favorite quote of a friend of mine:

Started making it.
Had a breakdown.
Bon appetit.

I don't even know where I wanted to go with this... but I finished it anyways so I take it as a win. Also there is a continuation. 

Speedsketch 2

I totally forgot that I have 2 more Speed Sketch Video thingies for you XD
So this is the 2nd one ;) I was in very good shape that day, just like the guy I sketched XD

Watch HERE.

Enjoy. 

Bonus Comic still in progress ...

Idk why but just this already  took me forever. Good news is, it's almost done now. Those 13 pages were divided into 3 parts at first but the whole thing took a turn and now I think it's good, that they ended up as one part. (or maybe this is my excuse for taking 3 months :D)

The 'plot' also took a last minute turn. Tbh I'm not quite sure were it will go. This is basically a short pi...

Uncensored version here 

Recently I have played with the though to venture into a more adult kind of art a bit & have decided to start small XD (bc I am a prude and embarrassed) (I gave it my best, ok? I'm so...

It was a nightmare...

Today I wanted to draw something easy, to relax but still be a bit productive ... The first drawing took me like 4 hours wich is way too much time for that type of Illustration. It took forever and nothing wanted to work . The second one came easier, but was still a bit of a nightmare...

The good news is, I recorded both so you can watch a speeded up version of how I fail for 6 hours soon...

Sketch Collection July 2/2

I'm playing around with some ideas in my head recently. I want to draw a One Shot and I had an interesting idea. Why don't I challenge myself to draw it in only one month. To be honest it sounds impossible XD But I have an interesting sounding idea for it ... which could also just be a total flop ... idk I feel motivated and demotivated at the same time XD

Also the thing I tried really ha...

Speedsketch

I recorded the process of 3 character sketches I did recently. Here is the first one. I hope the Link works.^^"

Original Time: 36 minutes (plus the skeleton I drew beforehand, maybe +5-10min)

Dragon Valley update

So the DV file is currently updating, you can access it, as always over the link in the pinned post. 

I know I said, that the chapter would be finished with that update but I just really couldn't focus on finishing the pages in time (as you might have noticed since I didn't update all week). Last week I tried regaining energy by slowing down my pace a little bit but it didn't really ...

Sketchbook Cover ~

I overdid it a bit. I actually just wanted to do a quick sketchy looking thing for the Cover Art. And while I was done with it pretty quickly, It turned out to look a bit more defined than I intended. Oh well ~
I like how the legs turned out. 

Sketch Collection July 1/2

I really though I sketched a lot since the last doodle update ... but I somehow didn't? 

I did practice my coloration a bit so maybe that's where the time went XD

Late #Mermay DTIYS

I like doing 'Draw this in your style' pieces and had that one in the queue for a while. The original was done by Peter Brockman (@pietmaen on Instagram) 

It's a sparkly motive for once^^

Short hair that's not black or white...

I realized that those practice pieces aren't really passing as 'Illustrations' but I'm uploading them anyway XD To make up for the lack of actual illustrations... 

Dragon Valley update July 1/2

I just updated Dragon Valley up to page 24 ;) Plus a little extra. The next update will finish the first chapter so the second chapter will start next month :) I'm very excited ♥

You can access the file over the link in the pinned post as always ;) 

More practice ~

Recently all I did was sketching and/or colouring comic pages so it's nice to rediscover the fun of making little, quick ullustrations. I used them mainly to 'come down' from my daily work. Drawings to relax from drawing all day XD 

Coloration Practice

I'm not really satisfied with the way I color Illustrations (especially skin) atm so I experimented a little bit, trying to imitate Akira Amanos coloration. I like how the hair turned out.

Sketch Collection June Pt. 2

I again sketched a lot of character designs that floated around in my head.  Lately I'll rather do that than to actually practice poses and stuff^^" I'm more the type that takes the hurdle when it arrives and since I'm working on comics a lot now I just figure different poses out when I need them XD  It's surely not the best or fastes way to improve so I'll try to practice more actual...

When you don't know what you're doing...

and it results in something sparkly.

I recently started to work on a new storyboard for a ~50+ page one shot involving lots of stars & shit. (For which ich actually have no time at all but what else is new...) So I downloaded some new brushes (most of them were not for me to be honest) and messed around a little. 

3K on Instagram

I recently hit 3.000 Followers on Instagram (also 400 on Twitter) and made a little illustration of Ivy to commemorate the occasion XD I will probably post it somewhen tomorrow

Have a nice weekend everyone ;) 

Dragon Valley Update June 2 ;)

The Chapter is updated to page 17 now. You can access it over the link in the pinned post. I hope you enjoy it. The chapter is about halfway done (though not much happened yet XD).

Sketch collection pt. 1 June

 I was a bit weak and already showed some of the sketches on my other social media, but you guys get it with the speach bubbles which makes it a 'kind-of-almost comic' XD

  Concerning the one winged character I named Storm: I had the idea for him some months ago, but then I (finally) caught up on the boku no hero academia manga which, at that time, had already intr...

I wish...

... that I could focus on only one idea at a time so I wouldn't 'waste' time drawing new stuff until the current main thing is finished.

To be honest though it's not a new idea. I just felt like playing around with two characters of mine, Rasca & Goliath, who always find each other in all their multiple life times. (Yes, it's fluffy, sue me XD)
Multiple life times means that there ...

Dragon Valley

Updates every week (usually monday but I'm still a bit behind, but I'm about to catch up ;) )

New Tier Names (and Pictures)

I know that I just changed the tiers but I had this idea and needed to change them again XD
Apart from the names and pictures, nothing really changed ;)

(Dragon Info: I wanted to give some fire type dragons feathery wings and make them more phoenix themed ... but somehow it looks like a chicken XD A Fire chicken (Pokémon did it first, I know XD) Anyway it's a type of ...

And so it begins...

Thank you all very much for your patience.
HERE you can read the first update of (the new) Dragon Valley.

Starting June I will introduce a new uploading schedule that has something planned for each week of the month. I'm currently working out a li...

Dragon Valley News

I've finished sketching out the first chapter (31 pages in total) so here is a little preview. I hope it is a bit interesting.
I'm pretty confident that I can finish everything  this month (as planned). The first two pages are completely done already. 

Of course  you guys will be able to read it first but I have yet to finalize my uploading plan for this. 

Doodles April 2020

Last month I didn't sketch that much or better said a lot of sketches turned into more refined Artwork or were comic pages (coming soon).(Also I had a mild Artblock at the beginning of the month. 

Mostly character designs / redesigns
I want to sketch more in May.

Thank you all for your support and stay healthy ;) 

13 pages of ... I don't even know (storyboard)

In April I had several smaller comic ideas I though would be nice to realize fo you guys. But because I cannot keep it short ever, they turned out to be 20+ pages and I was just not fast nor focused enough to finish them (what else is new) (they will come eventually)

So 2 days ago I had another idea that was supposed to be under 10 pages and now here you have 13 sketched out pages of ... ...

Lantern Fish (until page 41)

If the images in the PDF appear too small just zoom in, they are high resolution and you should be able to read them just fine. :) I Just scaled them down so the file isn't too large, other wise Google Drive wouldn't show ...

Tier Changes

Because I'm an idiot, I didn't notice that it was already the end of the month. So this note might not reach all of you in time.

I've updated the Tiers, please check if the changes agree with you, if not and you want to downgrade or unsubscribe, please do. :)

Should you not be able to do that for April anymore, please notify me and I will refund you the difference (should you chose ...
