This is a good moment in the scene where Antonia and Mitzi try to break into the bath houses. Getting the pose right, keeping the composition interesting, and still keeping this faith to the image I have in my head is very difficult. You have to be very good at all this stuff to avoidContinue reading “Visual Diary – Antonia – It Worked!”

Visual Diary – We are Finding You Some Soap.
I can see my art tending towards slightly coloured monochrome recently – and this is because when I’m creating a whole scene, to fully colour it too would turn it from a practice illustration into a whole project. I’m pleased with this one! I drew it before I wrote about it, and I’ve written andContinue reading “Visual Diary – We are Finding You Some Soap.”
Visual Diary: So… You’re Whackus Bonkus…
Brace for critique. A big success. A good angle, helped considerably by four or five messy ink thumbnails in my sketchbook. You should really see them. You’re going to have to trust me that … oh, for god’s sake, hang on. honestly, I do so much work, and then I do even more documenting it.Continue reading “Visual Diary: So… You’re Whackus Bonkus…”
Visual Diary – Did you… find any girls?
I realise we need some context here. I was going to summarise it, but the context for this is only a couple of hundred words long, so get ready either for some scrummy world building or to scroll. Harriet, the Halfling girl who met them earlier, was still at Reception. The thick red book detailingContinue reading “Visual Diary – Did you… find any girls?”
Visual Diary – Christmas Posts!
I took time this year to create some posts to acknowledge my work in 2022. This took the form of two posts I created in advance on Christmas Eve and one I drew on Christmas Day. This first one is actually a redraw of a Christmas post from 2016. This final one was the oneContinue reading “Visual Diary – Christmas Posts!”
Visual Diary – Vampires
Spending some time up in Southerndown this Christmas bought back the Vampire universe in my heart. The Vampire universe was born right after I visited my dad last July, and was in full swing in mid-August when I was moving house. We can take a Freudian dip into my sudden enjoyment of permanent, unchanging statesContinue reading “Visual Diary – Vampires”
Visual Diary – Switching Off
Just sketching up a few examples of Antonia spacing out. Each sketch is from a different universe. Themes of comfort and moving hands.
Visual Diary – At the Inn
This one was sweet. Drawn to heal the heart. Still in the fantasy AU, where Ludwig is nearly two feet taller than Drake because he has giant genes.
Visual Diary – Bound?!
Ever since I drew the Bound reel for Drake and Ludwig – a sweet, loving thing – I’ve wanted to create a sister reel for Mitzi and Antonia that just epitomises silliness and chaos. I took the same audio as before and added a bunch of dumb noises at the end. Again, I challenged myselfContinue reading “Visual Diary – Bound?!”
Visual Diary – Only One Bed?!
Depending on who’s reading this, you may or may not be aware of the infamy of the literary trope that goes: two people try to book at a full hotel, but there’s only one double room left, forcing them to share the bed. It’s famous because it’s cheap, and usually used in fanfictions as aContinue reading “Visual Diary – Only One Bed?!”
