Digital re-creation of the painting 'Knight of The Flowers' (1894) by Georges Rochegrosse with Vtuber Gavis Bettel as the knight and his mascots as the flower nymphs

[25/11/2024] Knight of The Bettelion

Painting re-creation I made for the Bettel Gallery Project. Original is "Knight of The Flowers" (1894) by Georges Rochegrosse. Beautiful painting, it was very interesting to work on.

Digital sketch of the character Ann Takamaki from Persona 5 dressed in a Gyaru style. She has heavy makup on, leopard print clothing and a big red bow on her head. Her left eye is closed as she's holding out her hand in an upside-down peace sighn and taking a picture of herself on her hpone, presumably in a mirror. There are drawings of sparkles and a small doodle of Morgana with heart-eyes around her.

Miss Ann Takamaki of Persona 5 fame. Thought a gyaru look would suit her. Little sketch I drew to familiarize myself more with Krita.

Not a finished piece, but I really didn't want to break my multy-year streak of drawing OCs at the end of every year. Maybe this will motivate me to draw them more haha

Digital drawing of the same humanoid fluffy alien duplicated three times, placed next to one another and each version tinted Red, Blue, and Green in order. The alien looks confused and is leaning to the side as if it were falling. The background is a solid dark gray color.

[22/10/2024] All Aboard the Birthday Train!

Birthday drawing for my dear friend Yvette! It was a lot of fun to make an illustration like this, always a pleasure to work on gifts. Train referenced.

[13/10/2024] Tapeworm Gijinka

These were supposed to be “warm-up sketches” but i got carried away as always. I've been watching Joseph Anderson's Danganronpa vods. Not a huge fan of the games but I have to admit they are very entertaining. So I couldn't NOT draw the guy. Mr. Danganronpa. I do like his almost tragic tool for the narrative but self-aware vibe. What can I say, I find a certain kinship with Joker-style sickos.
While I have you here check this.

Magma board study I did with a friend. Random Shibuya street with Yume Nikki characters.

[06/08/2024] The Reflective Nature of Glass

Hanging out on a Magma board with friends it felt right to draw Minnatsuki. The area depicted is Glass Cathedral from the Yume Nikki fan game Collective Unconscious. Funny story, I haven't been there before I started drawing, so when I went to look at it and listen to the ost I got lost on the way and ended up triggering the doppelganger event. What a fun game.

[05/07/2024] Adventuring Downtime

Super self-indulgent drawing that I started back in May. Very happy with how it turned out! The slime in the bottom right corner looks a little too transparent let's say it's been diluted by the rain. Nothing crazy but I think it's nice. The sketch for it is pretty funny so I'll include it below.
[BONUS]

Digital painting of a Vtuber Gavis Bettel of Holostars English. He is standing in the middle of the image, smiling wide and nervously, holding a fish. The fish is a rather big salmon in the middle of the mating period, its body is red where it shed its scales. The fish has a monstrous appearence and a wicked grin. Both the man and the fish are wet and covered in seaweed. Behind them is a harbor full of people looking at the character in bewilderment and disappointment. The background features a glistening lake, a ship in the distance and a mountain range.

[28/04/2024] Lucky Catch

Birthday drawing for my oshi Gavis Bettel of Holostars English!(feat. very tired Shinri) This was a part of a project that you can check out here! I have a lot to say about the thought process behind this one so expect a blog post to be added here.
[BONUS]

A digital sketch drawing of Alpha from the manga “Yokohama shopping log”. She is smiling warmly and coming towards the viewer down an overgrown path. She is wearing her café outfit, which is colored in with a halftone. Her left hand is held up in a greeting, and the speech bubble beside her says “good morning” in Japanese. Behind her are fluffy clouds indicated with light hatching.

Two digital sketch drawings of Alpha from the manga “Yokohama shopping log”. In one of them she is waving and smiling wide with her eyes closed. She looks embarrassed. In the other one, she is smiling and looking to the side. She is wearing her usual café outfit in both.

Sleepy Altare sketches

Digital sketch of a Vtuber Gavis Bettel of Holostars English in a maid dress with a frilly apron. His expression is nervous and he is visibly sweating, looking to the side. To the left of him is his companion Phantom, a small floating creature holding a feather duster and wearing a frilly maid headband. The image is not colored, aside from the dress, which appears gray because if a half-tone.

[27/03/2024]

Bettel in a maid dress, need i say more? I really like this sketch and I used it a lot for website testing so it's going in the gallery.

A Digital painting of a nature scene. The colors used are vibrant greens and blues. In the middle of the image stands a young light-skinned man with dark hair and wolf ears on top of his head. His face is obscured by him holding a digital camera and taking a pikture of the viewer with a flash. Behind him are lush bushes, a river, a forest, and clouds that form a fish skeleton in the sky.

A drawing I did for myself on my birthday (finished a few days late that's why the date doesn't match)

Digital sketch of a knight fully covered in reflective metal armor. Only the eyes and stylized bunny ears are visible beneath the armor. The knight is holding grocery bags from the store Lidl and looks extremely nervous, sweating and shaking. To the right of the knight is a crude drawing of a small white dog, blurred to indicate rapid movement.

[07/03/2024]The Knight

Drawing for my friend Manna of her character Faust in a suit of armor (feat. her dog Pico and Lidl)

Digital drawing of the Vtuber Regis Altare of Holostars English. The image has a limited blue and yellow color pallet. Altare is positioned in the center of the image, turned slightly to the right. He is looking at the viewer with a cheerfull expression, eyes glistening with little stars. He is surrounded by his slime mascots and sparkles. Virtically arranged English text: happy birthday.

[31/12/2023] Original Characters

It has become a tradition for me to draw my characters for every New Year's celebration. I love looking back on all of the old ones and seeing how much they've changed in a year. It feels special to draw something so close to my heart on such a special day. Always makes it a bit brighter, something I look forward to.

Warm-up drawing with an older sona design

[12/12/2023] The Chariot

Drawing I did for the Gavis Bettel Tarot Project! It was super fun. I was trying to stay more or less true to the Chariot's color palette and symbolism. The card is supposed to have a border which is why the composition here is a little strange.

[01/12/2023] A Date With

Portrait of Mr. Markiplier. This is actually a re-draw of this one i drew all the way back in 2017 [link].

Bettel 1 and Bettel 2. Can't believe there are two of them.

[07/09/2023] Woven Fates

Fanart for this music video. Believe it or not the blue glowing effect was actually done in blender! Needlessly complicated, but you have to admit it looks nice.

[07/08/2023]

Inuyasha. Practicing drawing profiles.

[14/07/2023] Tempus Wheel

My favorite vtuber group Holostars Tempus! Drew this all the way back when the colored wheel trend was going on on the web. They really fit the format.

[14/03/2023]

Something I drew for my birthday. First time drawing myself with those ears. The sky is usually very dark on my birthday, so I made it blue for myself.

[20/02/2023] Busy cherry blossom bee

Kohaku Oukawa from Ensemble Stars. I love enstars and go through phases of getting really into it at least once every year. I remember setting a 3 hour timer and just painting this whole thing in one sitting. Still extremely proud of it!
