Chibi Laele
Working on page 2 of the comic. Had to take a break from drawing obnoxiously attractive Middle-Eastern men to draw a cute chibi for the wife

Kigurumi Laele
Wife: "You know those adult-sized Pikachu pajamas?"
Me: "Not really."
Wife: "Laele would totally wear those."
Me: "...I think I know what I'm drawing tonight..."

WHO WANTS FISH TACOS
So, in Monster Hunter, they have this weapon
that's a frozen swordfish and you use it as a sword (sadly, in game,
you swing the fish from the nose). I was playing and using that weapon,
then I asked my wife if her character would use a fish as a weapon.
"Oh, yeah, totally. She would scream, 'WHO WANTS FISH TACOS!' before smacking people with it."
Watch out, monsters!

Portrait for my wife's birthday, of one of her characters.
I tried to add a bit of grain to simulate a natural canvas texture, but I fear I might've gone a bit overboard. Here's a lighter version
Painter and Photoshop.

Ruins concept
Some quick concept art for my wife of the ruins that feature heavily in one of her books. :)
Trying to be more explorative of landscapes, since I have little experience/success with anything non-person.
On the other hand, check out that badass gesture on the left, there!

Huitzilopochtli
Still working on this guy. Trying to simplify my values a bit and not worry too much with the rendering until all the planning is done.
This is why it's important to have a plan before you jump in, so you don't spend all your time going back and fixing mistakes over and over.
Plan your drawings, kids!

Riven - League of Legends
Riven from League of Legends.
I am not familiar with LoL, nor its characters, but I like swords, so there.

Birthday sketch: Royal Guard
Royal Guard birthday sketch for a friend.
I decided not to use the original character as reference, as I don't think he looks manly enough. :|
About an hour in PSCS5

-Cliche archer gear
-Cliche mage staff
-Two knives

-African
-Thin and tall
-Lithe-looking
...and here she is.
I might do a better sketch of her in the future
