Just a bunch of pieces from my class swap AU that ill probably never post lol
been having fun messing around in pixilart the last few days, making little “what’s in my bag” type items for @rozzwil‘s Ivan Amell!
No finished dragon age art only wips forever
currently deep in the “perhaps this should have stayed a sketch 🤔🤔🤔” phase
ive literally changed my entire outlook on drawing animals over the course of working on that “My OC As…” meme this shit rules actually, im done drawing people
I tried to show this off in my last ask but didn’t realize how compressed it would be so here’s the full lineup at the moment of @diirthara-ma and I’s OCs! I beg of you to open this in a larger window ToT
vulnerary-prince asked:
2, 19, and 21!!! Btw I’m a huge fan of your work!!
Thank you! @vulnerary-prince I’m a huge fan of your work too👀
2. 5 favorites of your own work?
It’s hard to choose because I have a lot of unfinished work that I’m very proud of as well as several non-art projects I’d like to include. Here’s a collection of things in no particular order:
-my work in progress of all of @diirthara-ma and I’s OCs! Pictured here from left to right is my warden, diirth’s inquisitor, one of my two main inquisitors, Enast’s sister in law, Enaste’s younger brother, Enaste’s younger sister, and Enaste’s youngest sister.
EDIT: Here’s a link to the lineup in a viewable size for desktop users!
-going along with the last image is @diirthara-ma and I’s family tree for our Lavellan clan that I made! We needed to keep track of each family and how they’re all connected so here’s an incomprehensible diagram
-this Solas I drew. It’s still not finished but I made it as a gift for @diirthara-ma and I had a ton of fun on it!
-the progress I’ve made on my miniature D&D terrain! As you can see, I haven’t finished almost any build but I have a lot of fun slowly chipping away at them. Pictured are several of my buildings and scatter terrain. A lot of trial and error goes into these which is also a portion of why they take time. While this isn’t the most flattering pic (several of my other trees stored away somewhere rn!) I’m particularly proud of my method I decided to use to create trees with poseable trunks and limbs that I came up with by frankenstining a few other terrain builder’s designs.
19. Favorite character(s) to draw?
Oof this one’s really hard. For fanart it’s probably Solas or Iron Bull (i know, i know i never actually draw them) and for OC’s I think it’s Ivan Amell because his face is so annoying looking and I enjoy pushing it to look even droopier each time
21. Weirdest thing you’ve ever drawn?
Idk if this fits but I’m currently working on drawing an embarrassingly self-indulgent drawing of ivan with some desire demons,,,,,,,,

ROZZ SHOW ME SHOW ME SHOW ME. Artist asks: #1, #14, #15!
1. Show me your most recent wip
I already showed some but I’m gonna do a few more because I might never post them haha
This one’s from a casual class swap AU me and @diirthara-ma came up with! If I didn’t get the vibe across this is Cassandra as a Necromancer and mortalitasi. I wanted to explore what might happen if she had been a mage and had embraced the nobility lifestyle 👀
This one’s just from a body lineup reference sheet I was messing with from a while back! It’s a little outdated but here’s Ivan Amell, Alexander Adaar, and Isha Lavellan
14. How has your art changed over the years?
I’m house sitting and away from my computer but that means I DO have access to really old pre-digital art 👀
PreK/Kindergarten: Most of my early art was exclusively Pokemon related. Here’s a poster advertising a “Pokemon Klub” and a reference sheet I made for myself of Unkown
Elementary School: Still very into Pokemon and Digimon. Here’s two self portraits from around 2nd and 3rd grade lol
Middle/High School: I was still going hard on Pokemon and spent a couple years working on my own Fakemon region. Here’s some of my concept art for my starters feat. my water starter which was a lifeguard/arctic wolf. Scott Pilgrim and shows like Adventure Time were also big influences at the time
I bought my first tablet when I was 15 and that really transformed my art habits. I switched almost exclusively to digital and began posting on social media. In retrospect, I would section out a couple big arcs for my art since then.
From 15-19 I was really motivated to make art a career and was excited about building a following. Within a year I gained a few thousand followers and was really excited that I was able to sell my art and commissions for money.
By early college I started to lose interest in grinding and was bouncing around several different career paths. At this time I started to try out a lot of new art styles and explore concepts I had always felt too intimidated by before. From 20-22 I didn’t create much art that I was proud of or wanted to post. This is the hardest era of my art to look back on but it was also when I experienced a lot of growth. In particular, I started painting and using color in ways that I had never tried before and I started taking a lot less shortcuts when it comes to anatomy and rendering difficult poses. This was also when I began exploring original concepts and characters through RPGs like Dragon Age and D&D.
I associate age 23- the present with my art focussing almost exclusively on original concepts. I’m also very disengaged from social media outside of a small community of friends and artists I enjoy. This allows me to disentangle my motivation to create from external factors which has helped me enjoy sharing my art again. Most of what I draw is done through collaboration with @diirthara-ma and I take a lot enjoyment from other forms of creating like talking about characters, creating charts, moodboards, and playlists, as well as sculpting and miniature making (for D&D). I also enjoy the process of drawing a lot more and spend much more time just doing figure sketches or playing around with another artist’s color pallete.
15. Biggest artist pet peeve?
This one’s hard! I’d say that I have a bad habit of constantly desaturating my color palette for no reason throughout a piece and then having to resaturate everything again later.
I also got so chill about not posting I now have a hard time remembering to post my art. I also tend to forget I’ve drawn something if I don’t post it so I constantly find old art in my folders I never did anything with lol
Anonymous asked:
1, 3, 5? 💕
1. Show your most recent wip
I have tons of wips because I refuse to finish most drawings but here’s the most recent saved to my phone 😳
3. Least favorite things to draw?
Unfortunately things like armor and chainmail which is great for someone that almost exclusively draws fantasy characters 🥲
5. Anything you haven’t drawn yet but want to?
My big project I’d like to eventually tackle is creating concept art for the entirety of my and @diirthara-ma ’s clan Lavellan that both Enaste and Isha come from. We’ve already developed ~50 or so of the characters and have extensive headcanons but I’ve never actually sketched references for them. Someday I’ll also post the illustrated family tree we created as well!
