My end of year personal goal is to make my office and drawing space as comfortable, healthy and ergonomic as possible within reason. I’m actively trying to get rid of wrist pain and will seek a doctor after year end close is finished. Take good care of your health, y’all!

And talking about traditional media, I tested the Ohuhu markers and the colors are vibrant and very pretty. However they are not compatible with the sketchbooks I have (a lot of real bad bleeding) so I had to buy marker paper on Amazon. It’ll arrive tomorrow. I’m excited to try them out!

Krile 🎨 #FFXIV #FFXIVart #TraditionalArt

Krile sketch is finished. Time to color it. I totally forgot how tricky it can be to layer colors using Faber Castell SuperSoft line. #FFXIV #FFXIVart #Krile #WIP

I had a Strathmore Toned Tan Sketchbook lying around and decided to draw Krile (reference used is in Endwalker artbook). Colored pencils will be used here with maybe some very light colored pens. It’s been a while since I drew traditionally so it’s a nice change. #FFXIV #FFXIVart #WIP

If I wake up feeling well tomorrow I’ll finish the Agrias study and do some tests with the Ohuhu Markers I bought on Black Friday. I’m really excited to try them out because I never used alcohol markers before, so I’m curious on how they will behave on the papers I have here.

And to think my achievements for these games spam almost 10 years from the first until the latest ones lol FFXIII has been a longtime project to platinum but I finished the main story a long time ago. FFXIII-2, however, was on hold for a couple years due to being extremely laggy on my computers.

Lately I’m feeling like an extremely underleved and undergeared RPG player that was thrown suddenly into the game’s final super boss. I’m literally counting down the weeks for this to be minimally over, be it a good or disastrous outcome. It’s mentally taxing to a totally unhealthy amount.

Anyway, I bought a Soolla bag to see if I’ll be able to put all my traditional art supplies there and carry everything together around the house and to not forget I have certain materials to use 😅 I’m one of those people that if they don’t see it, they don’t remember they have something.

"Diurnal" #fandaniel #themis #ffxiv #elidibus #yonart

I’m quite unwell this weekend so I’m basically being totally not productive at all (drawings are on hold) but at least I’m still able to read books and watch anime. I’m at 40% of Oathgate (The Stormlight Archive) and at episode 8 of Steins Gate 0.

Celebrating 9 years since we first drove off into the horizon on an unforgettable road trip in Final Fantasy XV. What was the best recipe you made on this journey?

Well, at least I went to Liberdade and bought some basic art supplies and washi tapes there after I finished my work day. Now going back home to my little fur balls.

And of course the zine I purchased got selected for customs’ inspection. I’m not a tax accountant at all but import processes are one of the few things I have enough practical experience to formally challenge the government calculation if it’s needed and if I find it worth my time and money saved.

I just want to play more of this game haha Spent the whole day playing it. Too bad it’s almost 1 am and I have to work in 7 hours so I had to stop. Running through route C at the moment. I’m totally hooked!

Tides of Anihilation new trailer definitely piqued my interest. This boss fight looks insane and the art direction is really up to my liking. Fingers crossed for it to be a well polished game when it releases.

Got completely sucked into playing Nier Automata yesterday and today. Let’s see if I’m able to get to one of the endings this weekend. I’ve been avoiding spoilers for this game like the plague for so many years because everyone praises it so much.

I completely forgot that Ace Attorney released a patch to include Latin American Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese in the original trilogy. I’m gonna play the hell out of it in Spanish hahaha I love the language and it’s a great way to make use of it as I unfortunately don’t use it anymore for work.

WIP (still a long way to go), partly a study from Yoshida’s illustration of Agrias Oaks, from Final Fantasy Tactics. #FFT #FinalFantasyTactics #Agrias #Fanart

I don’t know why but I thought FF Tactics artbook was already released in English but it’s not. I’ll have to keep an eye out for that. Out searching for Lady Agrias’ references I go.

This weekend I’m going to draw Agrias but I’ll probably start it tomorrow because after this whole curry adventure I’m quite sleepy already and it’s almost 9 pm so I’m not gonna risk falling asleep on my iPad lol

Finally decided to try making curry at home and it was delicious! It’s a shame Golden Curry tablets are not cheap here but I’ll definitely go to Liberdade to try to find some deals now in November.

2021年・ff14

Naive me though I would have enough free time before class today to do my mandarin homework but alas, I was completely wrong lol Lesson learned to always complete everything on the weekend.

It needed a lot more work before it’s polished up to my liking but for the sake of being realistic I’m stopping at this stage. From now on I’m gonna aim at doing a study on weekends with no WIPs allowed to be carried from a weekend to the following one. #ffxivart #ffxiv #ryne #shadowbringers

For the following weeks I want to draw Agrias from FFT and 2B and 9S from Nier Automata. I also have yet to complete both of these games haha

I have said for decades that frustration is a good thing. it's not even really something I see as something to 'tolerate' though I recognize that's a matter of perspective, but rather frustration is the symptom of you having standards and recognizing you want to close that gap between you and it

Ryne study WIP. I’m struggling with the brushes hahaha so far I’ve used a lot of gouache ones but the end result is not quite what I want yet. #ffxivart #ffxiv #shadowbringers #ryne #procreate

Hi all, I'm Celticmanga! I'm a digital illustrator and streamer. I mostly make fanart, but sometimes OCs. I'm currently just trying to improve! #portfolioday

If I’m able to keep my current job until my colleague comes back from her maternity leave next year, the second half of 2026 will certainly be spent only drawing, studying piano, mandarin and playing FFXI.

I started a Ryne study using a reference from Shadowbringers Artbook with some minor changes like her hair color. The goal here is to challenge myself to replicate decent rendering. It still has a long way to go until it’s finished, though 💭 #FFXIVart #FFXIV #Shadowbringers #Ryne #Procreate

Today’s 2h study | Lakeland #FFXIVArt #Shadowbringers #Procreate

Themis 🌓 #art #ffxiv

Currently away from Procreate because my full time job is extremely demanding and I’m covering a colleague’s maternity leave that’s way above my station. Wish me luck not to get fired in the next months hahaha

If I could fully use CSP, Excel, Affinity and Silhouette Studio on Linux I swear I wouldn’t touch Windows with a ten foot pole ever again. It got to the point where I was considering a Mac just to get away from it but, alas, my budget doesn’t allow it.

lil concept art for my OC world The Shattered Lands of the planet Immernok #oc #concept #landscape #art

I barely woke up and scammers were already bugging me on WhatsApp to pay fake import taxes on an Amazon order I placed. They had all the real info down to my ID number, tracking code and full address. RIP data privacy.

I always try to buy FFXIV’s artbooks to do studies of what’s there and, currently, I’m doing a study of this little guy here from Shadowbringers’ artbook. Still a WIP but it’s been fun. #Shadowbringers #FFXIVArt
