some practice expressions I did of Penny in 2022
Since we might lose Twitter, I had to preserve my favorite thread on Frozen 2 from the amazing Ryan La Sala whose books you should absolutely be reading!
doodled this Monday before a water science lecture ^-^ it’s low effort but also like. passing period
inhales ok
THIS is a mega folder containing literally everything rwby-related that is available right now on roosterteeth (+v9). rwby, fairytales, world of remnant, the grimm campaign, ice queendom (sub and dub), vtubing, all the behind-the-scenes stuff. everything.
plus soundtracks for every volume + IQ, and drm-free epubs.
i will add any additional rwby content released during the wind down period as it becomes available. V1-8 have an english subtitle track embedded in the files, V9 does not because it came from CR. IQ dub has english subtitles. and for the sake of completeness i pulled all the non-english subs available on CR for V1-9 as well, those are in there as loose .ass files for the time being.
whenever possible, buy physical media. learn how to strip drm out of digital content that you own and make it a habit to do so.
archive responsibly 👍
it's kinda a redraw
finished the scene from this wip :) not long now til the rest is done!
If Riku's canonically a Dream Eater, then it stands to reason he'd look like one in Monstropolis yeah?? (monster-Sora already looks like a Chirithy, notice)
Anyways some design notes
He's the same (or adjacent) species as Dean Hardscrabble from Monsters University-- though not a centipede taur for Reasons
(SquareEnix probably prefers consistent proportions across world specific models to make rigging easier, and therefore would not design him Like That)
His wings and elytra are at his waist since from my observation, they like to put things at waist length in Riku's designs. When folded flat against the thigh it looks like pockets.
He would use the lower wings mainly for gliding, to generate extra lift (given the length of his tail)
I'm debating moving the position of the Spirit sigil to his back, between his wings-- 1) that is consistent with its placement in DDD, plus 2) his wings would also contextualize it like a Nightmare
got sick with the flu last week so I designed AGS as side characters for Rhaco: Geckos of New Caledonia.
Genos (Satanic Leaf-tailed gecko) is the club's self-declared leader, as he is also its founder. He's a theater kid and came up with the idea of carrying around bird wings strung up like costumes to perform roles from his favorite plays (mostly Leafless).
Seflop (Giant Leaf-tailed gecko) is the club's de facto leader on account of his actual bird-killing track record. At first this was accidental, but now he has a problem and they can’t make him stop... what's his deal with property damage all of a sudden? The hair is a cape of egret feathers. They're not natural... we think.
Anjil (Frilled Leaf-tailed gecko) was roped into his best friends' club and now acts as damage control, carrying the overflow wings from their bird-killing sprees. He is on good terms with Zekk and routinely apologizes for the club's antics. He also doesn't just leave.
I only had time for AGS right now, but as for Cloud and Zack-- they run a joint tailoring shop in the gecko village (feathers, leaves, & fur fashion). Clao does mainly feathers, so he's a constant victim of his wares being raided by the AGS club.
Do you use a service to print your books & buttons, or do you press and collate them yourself? I really love your work and I'm curious how you approach self-publishing as a full-time independent illustrator!
Hi there! Thank you so much for asking!
All of my buttons are made via a manufacturer! They're often very cheap to have made. I 100% recommend this merch resource list created by Lily Grace if you're looking to get merch made and need a place to start! :) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mk9wl0LiYNStnXxwHAE6hd4-uzDMhfvnHsh819KlQeA/edit?gid=0#gid=0
As for books, I'm currently using https://www.grekoprinting-comixwellspring.com/ as a printer for my one little soriku book. I'm still a novice when it comes to physical print, but its a really nice option to have when selling at conventions! If you're considering printing an art book or comic book, I'd recommend having a digital option for accessibility, too! ^^
Making your own merch is still totally a valid option, if you're willing to invest in the resources to do that! There's plenty of good reasons to do stuff in house. I personally prefer to not have the extra workload because I'm already so bad about dragging my feet on the simplest of work tasks LOL!
Putting my animation diploma to some real use for once and animating my girls
Definitely had some challenges with this one as it's a fairly technical shot, but I'm proud of where it ended up!
