The next installment of my Walter Family Portraits is done!

We have the original inventor, creator of our beloved Singing Musical Automatons, Col. Peter A. Walter I. Based off of the original art from Sam Luke (@samhears) in the Steam Powered Giraffe comic and a photo of David Michael Bennet

Color pallet was partially chosen by popular vote here on tumblr using the poll function

Acrylic paint on a 8x10 inch stretched canvas

WIP photos under the cut as always

The canvas was originally a test of the new blues I had bought, and was going to be used for the Sky Shark painting, but I ended up going with a larger size for that so it's been sitting partially painted since then. On the far left side you can glimpse my skeleton helper Darla, and part of my work surface is the sketch for my Lily Airheart painting (still in progress)

The very initial sketch, transferred over using graphite tracing paper, the canvas wasn't completely square so I decided to try making it look like an oval frame over a photo instead of a square and trying to find a frame that looked good with it

Unfortunately the blue had to go, at least for the bits of the painting that wasn't background, so it was time to start laying down some base colors and solidifying my choice to go for half-comic half-realism

Didn't really know what I was doing and ended up using Yellow Ocher for one of my base colors, I changed my mind on this much later after sleeping on the decision for a few nights. The yellow just wasn't working right with the Burnt Sienna for this

My reference photo and some more base colors, nearly ready to move onto shadows and other tones

Lips??? How do people paint lips?

Starting to regret the yellow, but forging on hoping that it'll end up looking ok

Relising that the process isn't going to fix this and that the yellow needs to go, starting to paint over it with a combination of Unbleached Titanium and Burnt Sienna

Just before I realized that I forgot his coat buttons, and a few details left to finalize. The little gold frills weren't popping as nicely as I hoped so I painted them over in black before adding a gold wash over it to make it look like worn and old gold

Hiiii I’m Abyss/Silver and this is my music blog! I’m eighteen, aroace, and my pronouns are she/they/it/void/static/glitch/error. My love for music was instilled in me at a young age! Unfortunately I know nothing about music theory or producing music in general, but this is where I will share my favorite songs or just songs I think are underrated in general and talk about them!

My favorite band is Steam Powered Giraffe, and my favorite solo artist is Samhears! I’m also a huge fan of Vocal Synth (specifically Vocaloid) and my favorite producers are Steampianist, CircusP, and Kian!

Any problematic artists I share here (if I do), I would like to go on the record: I DO NOT ENDORSE ANYTHING THEY’VE DONE! Cuz I know Steampianist is very problematic so I want to say that before anything lol! I rarely look into the people behind the music so I will probably unknowingly share songs made by problematic people, so please tell me if I do!

I don’t have a favorite genre! My taste entirely depends on how much I vibe with a song! I’ll go from folk, to screamo, to country, to breakcore, to classical in like two seconds. I’ll probably be sharing a lot of Vocaloid right off the bat since I am very heavily fixated on it right now!

Okay that’s it I think I also have an art account called @steampunksilver but I post very infrequently so I suggest going to my Twitter or Instagram (also SteampunkSilver) where I post more regularly 😭👍

That’s not how to become a moon, Hatchy

[steampunksilver]

I haven’t posted my VT art on Tumblr but like yea. I just felt like drawing Spencer again okay… It’s my scrimblo and also my oc tbh

The lyrics in the background is It Says Its Dead by Samhears I associate the song with Spencer

Jordan and Isaac still suck but Spencer holds a special place in my heart <3

An old sketch of @bunnybennett from Steam Powered Giraffe!! 💖💕 (This was my first time drawing her)

[officialsteampoweredgiraffe]

I really like Samuel Lukes art he did for Vice Quadrant. Do you know if he posts art anywhere so I can see more of his stuff? Thank you for your time! East

@samhears :)

[jonny-b-meowborn]

It’s mermay and there are mermaids everywhere so I drew some myself and of course it’s Steam Powered Giraffe, because why would you expect anything else form me? XD

I don’t know why they have this dead, confused stare, it just happened and I decided to leave it like this :P

[samhears]

I drew this for a friend of mine's birthday. They are probably the closest thing I've had to a mentor.

Got the most amazing art as a secret Santa gift from the awesome @samhears

[guatymelon]

Omg this piece is soo cute! Happy to receive my art from @samhears

[b-dangerous]

So @samhears started playing Earthbound music in his twitch stream and we started talking Earthbound. It made me want to colour this old thing so bad. I might still use it for what I originally intended (we’ll see), so please don’t hold it against me if you see this line art used in something else in the future.

PS. Sam, if you’re serious about that co-op Earthbound stream, I’m in.
