Loving the updates! Great variety and I'm particularly impressed by your texture work - always very natural and convincing. Keep up the great work!

Thanks one_two and George.

You are smashing things up (in a good way) with all your latest, George— definitely setting the bar a LOT higher for the rest of us trying to keep up wit' ya.  : )

Hope everyone who celebrated Christmas had a good one and wishing you all the best in 2025!!!

So here's some new schtuff I'm happy to post as the year winds down.

Back in 2019 I did a pastel pencil of this one and decided to rework it using Krita and my trusty Wacom.  

(If you wanna see the pastel it's on my second post on my first page here near the top.)  




---------------


This next one is from a sketch I did with my niece's kids in mind.  I kept it pretty close to to the original concept but cleaned it up a lot and added to the background.  

Just a cartoony thang — but I had fun on it. (Used Inkscape for the word balloons and text)




---------------

I did a bit more work on this one and I still might fiddle with it as time allows.




---------------

Mostly do pastoral backgrounds so this one (and the super-hero piggie) were a nice change of pace.




---------------

I have done some edgier stuff too — and this one had a lot of happy accidents from me just experimenting back in my Photoshop daze




---------------

I'll share one more older one — this started out as a digital doodle that I stubbornly worked on until I was happier with it.  Sometimes things just seem to flow and sometimes it's like wrestling an angry herd of chipmunks.




---------------

I was going to share a bunch more — but need to move on to other thangs.

Have a wunnerful end to 2024 and all the best in 2025!
