Hunter's Dream From Bloodborne, From 2020 When The Game Was Turning Five. Drawn With An Attempt To Emulate

Hunter's Dream from Bloodborne, from 2020 when the game was turning five. Drawn with an attempt to emulate Edward Gorey. The outlines for the church and the stairs were made with a very good and proper pair of projections, though you may notice some fudging in those four spike things around the spire because the projections were intersecting and I couldn't be bothered to fix it properly. Two wolves, one simply couldn't be bothered with that at the time and the other definitely spent more than a week getting this finished.

Ordinarily when I say I drew something with a mouse I am compelled to add, "using the Pen tool" as while it doesn't make the process faster it does take the need for precision movement away. Every single visible line in this drawing was done with the Pencil tool this time, though, because there were 60,000 of them and I think doing that with the Pen tool would take longer than remaking the game from scratch.

Lil guy in skull. From 2019. I remember being proud enough of this one that I had it set as my phone background until the phone in question stopped working last year.

Eleonore Mordis Linden, a character who came about in response to the art prompt "Design a magical girl with an improbable/impractical weapon." So I went y'know what's real impractical and unwieldy? Impossible geometry. And decided to make her powers the Penrose steps. But not really because I thought them being circular looked nicer and the only way to do that (simply) is to essentially draw a turbine, the geometry of which is quite possible. I did start a different circular Penrose steps thing once that I'd conceptualised mathematically but then my laptop died and took that file with it before being brought back to life. Maybe one day.

Anyway I later decided on a name and personality, the latter of which I recently described as, "the type of person to ask you if it would be funny if she ate this entire ice cream in one go and then do it before you can respond." Then I did that redesign in the first image because my 2019 self didn't have a single clue how to design a magical girl. 2022 me is slightly better but gave her that disaster of a hairstyle that 2023 me has somewhat corrected.

2020 me would like you to see these projections from the making of that second image:

Plus the result of those, sans Eleonore:

With a mouse, too. Little guy was not acting normal.

Periodically I find reason (Discord server art challenges) to draw Pokemon gijinkas and a couple of times I've been proud of my efforts so here are those. Cacturne from 2023 and Dustox and Beautifly from 2021. I don't think Beautifly is especially clear but I was really invested in some kind of hippie drummer look for some reason so there she is.

That time I designed a bunch of wizards in hats based off of Pokemon types. This is the initial set of 18, which are mostly not great, but I gotta post em if I wanna get to the good stuff. Some of these typings may be unclear so to clarify: Fire, Water, Grass, Ghost, Dragon, Rock, Dark, Fairy, Steel, Ground, Fighting, Electric, Poison, Psychic, Ice, Bug, Flying, Normal. Do not ask me why Fairy has no feet, I do not understand my past self for that one.

I will not be tagging this post. I have triggered a glitch that causes Tumblr to constantly scroll upward and any typing I do causes the screen to jump up and down and it gives me a headache.

From 2021. One of those drawings where I'm proud of the effort put in but also think it would've made for a better image if my younger self wasn't so invested in the flex.
