I won’t lie…my own birthday distracted me this week. BUT! I got a little somethin’ somethin’.

Just a sketch I had lying around, decided to play around with grayscale again. Drawn on copic sketchbook and inked with Copic Multiliner SP + cool gray and of course shaded in with some ShinHan Touch Twin Brush markers.

Then to add in some more details, part of the top was done with CG9, while the stars and collar were shaded in with ink. The headband was inked with black and cool grey. Also, there is a veil, which some of the hair was under, so i of course used my colorless blender to create the transparent look with CG0.5 and a tiiiny tip to tip blend of CG0.5 and BG3. Then for quick decoration, CG9, CG7, BG7, BG3 and CG0.5 for the circle background.

Doin’ some commissions. ;U Figured I’d just get them done doin’ this thing. So here we go~

Drawn with Copic Multiliner SP and colored with ShinHan Touch Twin Brush markers

 

Another cheeb, nothin’ super fancy. :B Still trying out some of my new paper just to see if I really like it. Anyhow, skin first! Colors used were YR132, YR26, YR27, RP196, RP137. Eyes/makeup done with YR31, R139, BG251, B65, BG61, BG5, BG7.

Onto hair! Kinda another ombre thing or whatever you wanna call it. Blend is BR103, BR91, BR92, YR23 and Y36. I had started a bit backwards this time, since I am using some darker colors, I started off with the blonde at the bottom first and then I layered my browns and blended down. For the spikey part of the hair and a bit more detailing, I used colored pencil.

Onto the clothes now~ Colors used here were WG0.1, GG1, BG5, BG7, GG7, GG9, 120, B65 and a little bit of colored pencil here as well.

And of course final details Copic Opaque White, and a bit of B67 for an outline (kinda keeping the same style with my last cheeb).
