Rin From the Poppy War

This was my first time actually trying dramatic lighting. And when I realized the lighting was kind the off I stopped midway lol. But I liked the rendering of the face way too much so why waste it too rot lmao.

While working on another piece I tried to do a quick doodle of 1790s Filipina Traje de Mestiza. References were taken from Juan Ravenet's drawings during his Malaspina Expedition.

A Filipino peasant during the 1730s. Based on the drawings on the, 'Carta Hydrographica y Chorographica de las Islas Filipinas' or the 'Velarde Map.'

Filipina Mestiza from the early 19th century. Practising digital painting lately without references.

Interpreting the drawings of Juan Ravenet from the late 1780s to early 1790s during the Malaspina expedition. Resources are so few regarding what Filipinos wore during the 18th century so if you have any good sources like books, illustrations, museum pictures regarding this era please send it my way.

Katniss Everdeen based on how I pictured her in the books. I really tried to give the olive skin she was mentioned to have but Google didn't really provided enough material because all that popped wasn't really olive but instead were either a tan or brown skin. So I was left with a much paler outcome compared to what I originally intended leaving me with an olive undertone instead. I also tried to make her look malnourished but I don't think I really achieved that. The same way with her eyes which I really pictured to be more darker but it always ended up being too blue or black. Anyway I might redo this piece again with no more dark lineart depending on my schedule.

Anyway if you have anymore suggestions feel free too dm me. Especially about giving me more accurate references for olive skin and dark gray eyes. For future references.

Also to my old followers, hey guys been like 2 years now since I last posted. University has just really been taking a lot of my time and I was a bit insecure about how fast and good my artworks have been since beginning of the Pandemic. But right now I'm trying to get out of my Artblock so rest assured I'll try to post much more frequently now.

Doing some worldbuilding sketch for a future webtoon comic. Basically its based on Harry Potter but with more politics and social conflicts. Just without the transphobia, fatphobia, neoliberalism, speciest slavery and subtle anti-semitism.

Tried picking up digital art again. Been awhile since I last drew digitally, so I'm a tad bit out of practice. But anyways here is a fanart of Percy Jackson from the PJO and HOH series by Rick Riordan. Hope I gave him justice lol he is one of my favorite book characters of all time so I hope I did it right. #fanart #bookcharacter #art #artistsoninstagram #percyjackson #percyjacksonfanart #percyjacksonfandom #percyjacksonart #percy_jackson #rickriordan #digitalart #artistsoninstagram #pjo #heroesofolympus #heroesofolympusfandom #heroesofolympusfanart #heroesofolympuspercy #heroesofolympusart https://www.instagram.com/p/B_IbK1fpkSM/?igshid=1305ot4d8h2rj

Here's a bunch of pen doodles I did for a dark ages fantasy I'm working on. All of them are a bit wonky hahahaa since I didn't use pencil to sketch the shapes and went straight to using a pen. So yeah 😂. But other than that does anyone know a site or a link where I could get historically accurate attire of the people from the 6th or 9th century AD in Europe. Because I'm having a hard time finding one. But hope you guys like these doodles despite it's wonkiness haahahaha. #characterdesign #medieval #doodlesofinstagram #ocs #pendrawing #medievalfantasy #sketch #traditionalart #art #myart #wonk #fantasyart #fantasy #drawing #doodle #doodles #characterart https://www.instagram.com/p/B-_f8cznZgB/?igshid=8q2s37rnf07d
