New Art: Recent Commissions ⋆ Twilight Tangents

Long story short: I’ve updated the site with some recent commission work. Let’s check ’em out.

First up is my most recent work, Lull Before the Storm. A fan of SepterraCore commissioned this one as a gift for another fan. This was a chance to go back and draw characters that I designed 20+ years ago—plus, I got to revisit them with my current style. It was also a chance to apply all the techniques that I explored doing Inktober the last few years.

You can also see my initial pencils for this one in the Drawings Gallery!

SepterraCore: Lull Before the Storm

These inks were commissioned by a fan as a gift. It was a lot of fun to revisit characters (Maya, Selina, & Araym) that I haven’t drawn since the early 2000s.

Ghost in the Shell: Kusanagi on the Beach

Next up, is Kusanagi, the Major from Ghost in the Shell. A fan wanted to have a fun pic of her in a swimsuit, ready for the beach. At 11×14 it was the largest Copic marker work I’ve done. It was a fun challenge to get in some little details, like her gun and the Laughing Man logo.

This was a fun commission. At 11×14, this is the largest Copic piece that I’ve done. Incorporating the Laughing Man logo into the bathing suit was a cool challenge!

Fate/Grand Order: Mordred Ready for Bed

Then we have Mordred from Fate/Grand Order! This was done for a long time patron who likes to take special care in coming up with clever little scenes. Here we have Mordred, ready for bed and relaxing with a plushie based on a certain someone. I added the helmet because it just looked like it would be fun to draw.

I get a lot of interesting commissions at cons! This one came from a long time patron who likes to come up with clever ideas for each scene. I added the helmet to balance the pic, and because it was just looked cool and I wanted to draw it…

Father’s Day by Crom!

Next up is a special Father’s Day card commission I did last year. A lad by the name of Conan wanted a unique card to give to his dad, who was a fan of a certain Robert E. Howard (hence he named his son Conan). I kinda let loose on this one, and I again got to incorporate some of the effects that I had experimented with during Inktober.

This was commissioned by a lad named Conan, who wanted a Father’s Day card for his father, who was clearly a fan of ol’ Robert E Howard.

My Hero Academia: Froppy Tongue Tied

Last up, here’s a commission I did for another long time Patron, this time from My Hero Academia. I had never seen the show, so I started checking it out—so not only did I get a nice new piece to add to the site, but I also discovered a new anime to start watching. Froppy is the best, and I wanted to capture her in colorful Copics.

A long-time patron commissioned this Froppy piece, 11×8.5 inks and Copics. She’s a fun character to draw, and I enjoyed busting out the larger brushes to ink the hair.

All of these have been added to the Fan Art & Commissions gallery. Head over to check out other commissions I’ve done, and stay tuned for more in the coming weeks!
