I made some art like this a few days ago, but I don’t think it expressed what I wanted to say. So I made this. #art

Those of you that just started following, THANK YOU! Besides trying not to be bad with brushed ink and watercolor. I also like line art. I have a heavy Moebius, Terrada, golden age illustrator influence. I think line art really exposes your weakness and is a good tool to get better.

I guess I'm ready. Going in with my most used build on the left. While looking around for something else, I found this screen shot of my character taking an arrow to the knee from two years ago.

Sometime in the middle of last year, coming out of burnout I decided to change my work. I had reached my limit with dark art and was only making iterations of work I had already made. The things I now wanted were different. The work below for good or ill is a result of that search. More work to do.
