my first draw for 2024

Meija and her little tongue peeks to say Hullo!

am still learning how to draw with my pentel fude (gotta be light-handed); my mech pencil is pilot eno 0.7 (pink). Meija is a character in my (currently rebooting comic) RCH, formerly Sakuraday. I'll be sharing more about it sometime this year, hopefully. that and posting more art will be on my list of NY resolutions.

ink and sketch (i got excited to ink the sketch but ohwell). images have adjustments on contrast & brightness for presentation's sake. note to self: draw better arms next time =_=)...

Happy New Year folks!

progress update on the sakuraday reboot

seems i've been slumped about the writing part that i haven't shared some artworks so here they are: (in order of appearance)

Meija, Jonas, and Josef

the three main characters of sakuraday, if you haven't met them yet. They'd like to say "Hi and hello"", except maybe Josef who's not very good with first impressions (look at him grumbling in a corner).

re-drawing these characters helps when i get antsy and frustrated with the writing process. gotta balance the two. cuz apparently writing is a whole 'nother beast, though it has its fun times too i guess.

time to get back on the writing saddle and hope i dont fall.

update on comic reboot:

…writing is hard ( ಠ ͜ʖ ಠ)

[ivaverseblog]

The Red Planet, a comic collab i did with Daniel Goldhorn whom i met in the r/ComicBookCollabs community. it's a short retro sci-fi story, written by Dan and drawn by me, about people compelled to fight each other in the name of their nation. i'm so glad Dan made the comic into a video complete with sound design and voice acting. I recommend checking his channel out, some pretty good analyses and breakdowns vids about films (which I aboslutely like).

🔻here're the pages for anyone who wants to see them in full🔻

they have this comic posted in their tumblr too, check it out here.

Chapter#01 is out now for The Good, The Bad, & The Magical Girl

howdy stranger. are ya lookin' for a comic that's a lovechild between the wild west and magical girls? take a gander at this baby. *slaps this virtual post*

ahem just wanted to share the news about this chapter release. if you like supporting indie comic creators, do consider taking a chance on this wonderful comic project!

The concept & writing is by Macario Reyes (twitter | website), while I drew & lettered it. It was fun drawing Leonie and Nina's adventure here and in the Chapter#0 prologue. Nina's my fave 💜 and Leonie's my spirit animal, haha. If this crowdfunding reaches its goal, the adventures will continue and a new character (perhaps a fellow magic-user) might come up!

Imagine. receiving a vintage postcard, addressed to the year 2022, from Morocco that's a little too early for the Chinese New Year. It reads...

Happy New Year 2022

from me & the Sakura Day's main cast (left: angel Michael, Jonas, Meija, Josef)

* * *

my first illustration for 2022. I had too much fun with gradient maps but I settled with 8 variations and i have to share em! did you know googling "colour of the year 2022" gave me two different hues: "veri peri" (Pantone) and "evergreen fog" (Sherwin-Williams); guess which key colour I picked. aesthetics-wise, I've always leaned with eclectic but tbh this result wasn't entirely planned. still I had the most fun putting these influences all together to make this.

Lemme know which version you like best! (✪ ω ✪) mine's obviously the red one

[ivaverseblog]

mun & nubi (inked & toned) settled with monochrome. the odd-jobs duo that lives in and for sunshine.

hope someone can guess their symbols, although i believe it's not that hard to guess.

[ivaverseblog]

colour & lighting practise i did after finishing a long commission of black & white manga. mixed the expressions and changed up the hands for the heck of it. the template is based from an artist on twitter (can't find tweet except for this), but i did my own spin. feel free to base from my remixed template. sorry i forgot to make a blank template (＞︿＜)

posting on hindsight: i need to work on a lotta stuff.

[ivaverseblog]

been a long time since i posted. so here's a recent sketch i've been doing based on ocs i did for a portfolio. characters are mun & nubi: always together and doing odd jobs for fun. will do ink & tones soon.
