Rotten's Pocket

[RottenPocket]

Loving your latest update, the arms/hand in particular are very impressive.  Now you're just showing off! :)

 I have to, or I won't get famous. Or I forget that I can paint.

Hey RottenPocket - sorry to hear about your bronchitis and broken toe! Ouch! Hope both are on the mend now.  Loving your work - that angel lady with the floating crown is so wonderfully intricate!  All the best with keeping that furnace burning as you say :).

Exhibit A:
 I only got the x-ray three weeks after the fact, mostly to make myself feel better. I've so far successfully avoided rounds 2-4 of Covid, breathing and walking both back to normal after doing a 10000 steps tournament. 

Thank you! She was worth redo-ing and even though it's not a full illustration really, I feel like I learnt from it. 

Great sketchbook Rotten, really love the fungus character. I hope you work life is treating you better in the times, I can see the struggle through your posts. I feel many of creatives go through this where it's either feast or famine when it comes to work, and then of course the struggles that come with working for others, or working for self; there seems to be no winning. Anyway, really great and inspiring work from your corner and I hope you continue always creating and pursuing your passion; you're too good not to.

 On the downside my February was swallowed up by my corporate life - the details I will spare everyone, but I have not been abandoning my plans to start producing more art and regularly. There's been an overhaul of my online socials and I've gotten quite a lot of good feedback and opportunities from it. I'm just doing what I can, when I can. Thank you for your kind words <3

In January I recently completed this DnD character commission - As always I feel I could do more, but I also had to keep it within the terms of the brief (and payment bracket). Overall I really enjoyed her, and the decorative frame. I will consider next time leaving more of my construction lines - I just always feel better about form and texture when I leave them in. Sample images provided included Iren Horrors so minimal linework and washes of colour. Dimensions and design to fit Tarot aesthetic :)

I fell through on my promise to stream more after work - even if most of you in the discord are asleep of working at the time, I just wanted to be present from the land down under. There's been changes to my work arrangements and I may have more time in my afternoon/evenings, we will see how we go!

Not gonna lie, I will probably binge watch the live action ATLA when it airs tomorrow...
