Ah yes, my first anime OC, who I remember was a vampire hunter. Super edgy hair design (at the time) in 2001. I don't remember her name or anything else. 🤣

I hope I'm not too late for #PortfolioDay, cause I have some newer stuff to show!

It's spooky season, and the Hive from #Destiny2 check all the boxes. Here's my small contribution to the fandom, and I need to redraw Oryx again. But in a more traditional art fashion. #digitalart #oryxthetakenking

I am absolutely horrible at drawing armour, so this piece will be a combination of me drawing armour, making it fantasy-based, and going so far from what armour looks like that I make something entirely different.
Also, braids.

A proper scan to follow... I have 3 other illustrations to scan in, touch up, and then get around to posting. Eventually.
For now, enjoy this humble photo under evening lamp light. #mermaid #b&w #traditionalart #inkingimps

Just a bit more, it'll be done, and then I'll forget to scan this like the other two finished works I have (and I'm too tired to scan, edit, colour correct in Clip right now). #b&w #ink #traditionalart
