The journey from the sweltering heat of the desert to the cool, thin air realm of the Wizards was a long and arduous one but his Master's demands were ceaseless. Better in fact that they do not cease; he did not want to find out what punishment waited if they did. There were magical artifacts waiting to be plundered here, and he, Sivolgo, would be the one to bring them back to his Master.

Hi! I have a random question about your art, if you don't mind!
How do you go from your sketches with all the construction lines to the cleaned up finished drawing? Are you using a light table to transfer the piece onto new paper?
I really love your art btw it's always such a treat to look at!!
I absolutely don't mind! I love getting asks about my process, I'm delighted that you're curious enough to ask so I'll try to not over-explain too much.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
To keep from screaming and pulling out what's left of my hair and lose track of what my lines are doing, my construction lines are always color coded with Col-Erase based on background, character and the gear and props they wear. Not unlike how plenty of digital artists will color code their layers (and I'll probably end up doing that when I dive more into digital myself).
Tumblr media
After I've added the pencils over the construction lines, if it's complex enough I'll often have to give it a second pass with pen just to make sure everything is clear, and do as much erasing as I can. Then once this is done, THEN it's transfer time. I have to do this extra prep because otherwise my lines by this time are so muddy and impossible for even me to read what the hell is going on with them. To directly answer the second part of your question, I do the lion's share of my transferring via lightbox yes. (a very nice Huion model in fact that I can adjust the brightness with, and the work area is quite large). I love my lightbox, it's probably one of my favorite tools in my traditional artist arsenal. The amount of freedom I have with being able to manipulate elements of the piece (like how you'd manipulate layers and lines in digital art) is pretty huge for my process. Seriously for anyone reading this if you do any kind of analog and you don't have one I HIGHLY recommend having some kind of lightbox even a cheap one, they come in thin and very portable LED varieties now, it did wonders for me years ago when I made the switch. Sometimes though, if I have the final art transferred on thicker paper (anything that's over 90lbs/147gsm) or on most colored paper I have to use graphite transfer paper instead. I have the graphite stuff for light paper, and for darker paper I have white transfer paper instead so that the transfer lines are bright.
Once again, thank you for the ask and the interest! I do hope it wasn't too long winded. And thank you so much for the kind words, it means more than I can coherently express.

Tumblr media
We'll be hosting in the ruin's of rin behind a wall easily hopable by a skyscale or springer, or equally just request a portal in, because i doubt that we won't have at least one mesmer! there will be no set end date, just hang out until you're done! we encourage taking screenshots and drawing, but absolutely do come along for a charr centric social as well! given the nature of this event, please bring your charr, not your other races! we may do themed events for other races as well in the future :> you can use the hashtag #drawartcharrty to find folks after the event! i'll update this post 15 mins before the event starts with the squad to join!
