I wish I could see more of the really dumb drawings famous artists have made. Did they draw them for their friends. Or just because they could. And after they passed their estate or similar looked at them and thought hm yeah Not part of the canon I’m afraid

Some while ago there was random art advice thing circulating and today I thought what I’d add. Take the time. Speed is not the most essential quality and is often to the detriment of the work. I think this is very apparent in lot of vis dev and concept I see, bg art too. Needs more time to cook

I’m still reading Moby Dick (in English, not my native language) which means I am also learning a lot of ship terminology. My reading is accompanied with a dictionary and ship blueprints

Every year seems to get worse out there, but on smaller scale I’m trying to crush it at new job and I have much more drawing fire than in months

あけおめ

Last year was frankly awful, sickness and grief all year long. So, I’m not superstitious, but in situation like this when my new year’s tarot read was very optimistic, I’ll take it.

I also drew these last week, continuing the long lasting fantasy horned horse tradition. The one with horn overgrowth is inspired by Elden Ring's omens

Began as an armour study, but started thinking about how to use it as starting point for other costuming.

Year of the horse

This year I also did plenty of lifedrawing, mostly from Zeet studio's cosplay sessions. It really helped me to get back on track both with drawing in sketchbook and with character drawing, and I enjoyed the challenge a lot.

Made more traditional paintings this year, that I didn't think were as much of failure as some attempts in 2024. I liked these!

I drew this bookmark for my partner, a little memento of our cat Remu who passed away earlier this year. It also has a little maneki neko charm that I repainted to resemble him

Hi new people. I’m Eva and I mainly post my own fantasy drawings and paintings.

Boyfriend gifted me my other boyfriend

Sorry I’m posting lot today. I thought about the one time my dad complimented my art when I “don’t do the anime stuff”, but you know. Those with the eyes to see know that anime was always there. He just didn’t realize it when it wasn’t looking back in the form of an anime elf, but as a tree

Made this fanart of Dilandau (Escaflowne) I started this drawing as a break doodle, but it was too fun to make so I finished it.

I've been watching Escaflowne for the past week and it's extremely my type of show, it's beautiful and has all the enjoyable anime fantasy nonsense. I like the idea that it was probably pitched as "this has everything to be a mainstream hit" but then it wasn't, instead becoming cool in different way

Happy holidays everyone Winter sprite and Yule goat, gouache on paper

Finnish newspaper is asking reader experiences on if AI is affecting their job or career future and look, I could write an article at this point Not to sound overconfident, but I think my article would be better than their weekly tech hype articles interviewing anyone who claims they're a CEO

Awards whatever but I was still yelling for Hornet Silksong like she’s my favourite sports player

I’m currently reading Moby Dick for the first time and it’s been excellent. But I will say I just got to the part where he has a lot of hot opinions about whale science and it’s hilarious

Merlin is one talented painter and a versatile vis dev artist, good chance to hire him now

I think a good feature for youtube would be an ability to make every ai-generated thumbnail and video explode and banish them into the shadow realm (my contempt, never to be seen on my timeline again), permanently I would pay a coin for this

Normal fairy

Tried to do more extreme angles after this but I don’t want to talk about it, point is it’s really hard

The new illustrated edition of GRRM’s A Feast for Crows debacle, both AD and the illustrator in question are an embarrassment. I can’t believe all that slop went to print

I feel I’m slightly misleading people when I post old digital paintings, I don’t do those as much at the moment besides for work Vibing more with ink and traditional paints and I use my powers to draw cartoon wizards but thank you for looking in any case

Happy halloween and old paintings for thee

Concept art is weird and most of the times hard At least the aspect of loving solving problems Engineering is the worst I’m in tears studying how anything works I love pursuing an emotion which sadly doesn’t solve much and you kinda just have to say: trust me this feels right

Remember: get comics

Inktober 12 & 13

If I knew how to read Japanese better than a five year old I would’ve spent hours in Kyotos manga museum just reading

The first episode of Vision of Escaflowne is so beautifully made damn I saw the movie first and I liked it, the vibe was very different though This feels like a little treat for me

Maybe my favourites from what I’ve inked so far

It makes me very happy that people have been enjoying my inktobers. I’ve really liked making them so far so it’s nice to get positive response

Inktober eleven

Inktober 10

I watched all of Inuyasha last act because I never knew how it really ends, and I needed to KNOW so hmm…Well! It’s not great however Not me crying on floor because of Kikyo I have so many grievances about this series, but still really like some parts and it’s annoying how much better it could be
