A recent photo of my sketchbook, still training with ballpoint pen directly, a cruel training. But I am beginning to get a better ability to imagine perspective grids without tracing them, and I can even begin to plan full-page compositions. It takes a while to build these new skills, but they are worth it.

Photo of a double page from my sketchbook: in the middle a Bic ballpoint thin, on the left page: a top-down view of a female warrior with all the gear and an unusual way of carrying a sword, she turns back to the camera and looks at the horizon, over a suggested forest. On the right side, a goblin in the foreground walks through a crowd of a village with a large creature on a leash that looks like an armored cartoon bear.


I like your ballpen sketchbook so much. They are an open door to imagination and stories.

Ballpoint pen studies and randomness (desc. in Alt).

Sketchbook 5: Pleroma kicking a bat-Threads logo, A politician with a pineapple in place of the head saying 'vote for me', a saxophone player, various pen test on the right page, with 'wet' test for the ink: brushes, ink pen, gel pen, ballpoint pen. Most of the test are bad doodle with ink going out of control. Sketchbook 7: GNU/Linux fishing together, a guy at a conference, an attempt for Yennefer from the Witcher books with a landscape done with a leaky ballpen: a man on a horse is visible in background. A cowboy girl drinks with a hyppo and a owl.
Sketchbook 6: Top down studies, various portraits, various furry animals (dog, cow, cockatrel), someone watch with futuristic glasses in a cold environment, a sort of mecha armor for a woman protecting a plant, a bear, a squirel, a young woman, Clint Eastwood. Sketchbook 8: Various clothes, bra, and top without bra studies. Two heads of stereotyped fantasy Orcs.

Sketchbook 1: various witches, a weird dog, Ranma!, and a young child scribbled over my drawings in a corner and I mention it. Sketchbook 3: various female body studies with bra and pants. One is crouched full page with a cigarette. Some white corrector is visible. A weird face in the corner with cat hears.
Sketchbook 2: various studies of clothes wrinkle, white shirt without bra, shirt, hoodies, large hoodies. Usage of colored ballpen cyan and pink. A steampunk girl with pinkhair. Sketchook 4: various foot studies, a woman in a weird pose discover a butterfly on her foot. Another one sit on a chair next to a big foot with sunglasses. A thumbnail study in the corner for a 2024 illustration: too gothic.

Train doodle while running errands yesterday. Just a modern young witch and her cat. :blobcat_nwn:

#mastoart #sketchbook #sketch #WitchyVibes #cat #AnimeArt #BallPointPen

Pink and black ballpoint pen sketch of a young short haired witch and her cat. She is looking upward towards the viewer with a questioning look. Her cat is laying across her left shoulder, also looking up at the viewer. She has a moon tattoo on her right shoulder and has two earrings on her right ear that are connected through a small chain. Behind her a black rhombus shape gives contrast, decorated with a moon and a star, lines on all sides and two bigger dots.


@cookie_mumbles Hey, yes: in short, it trains the way i imagine things precisely before drawing them. It's frustrating, challenging and quickly reveals if i know a volume or (as often) NOT 🤭. If i can imagine it fully and hold it in memory while tracing it.

My next step is to learn more body parts and how to magnet my volumes to an imaginary perspective grid (cause i'm still bad at it and often fallback to isometry).

Eg: photo under, training on✌️hands.
#ballpen #MastoArt #sketch #sketchbook

Sketchbook photo, ballben.
Training with hands doing V sign. Just because the pose is interesting (finger in extension, fingers rolled in, thumb in opposition. Challenging). Also a random girl holding a (bananna) phone, eyeball studies. Many fails and retry.
Sketchbook , ballpen.
More hands fails and retry. Sepia invited themselve to the party, fan-art from imagination of Vegeta, Piccolo and Bruce Lee, and Dai from dragon quest with his sogn of the dragon on forehead. Also, a random tea bag.


From my sketchbook.
I train myself to draw directly with ballpen while traveling (a lot of transport this week, for personnal reasons). Hard exercice, but full of good lessons. I want to practice more that way.

Going back to drawing from life.

I'm good at drawing what's in front of my eyes but I've close to 0 imagination.
That's why I consider myself a good craftsman and not an artist.

The Overturned Cauldron of Magic Potion

This is a remake of an old sketch. I did it to try out the new brush presets while drawing the upcoming episode.

#krita #sketchbook #MastoArt
#creativecommons #ArtWithOpenSource

A black and white sketch of Pepper, then a very young witch, in a scene where she is disgusted and discouraged after knocking over a magic cauldron almost her own size. The scene takes place afterwards, at a time when she no doubt imagines having to clean up and start all over again. That particularly thankless moment after any such disaster... Carrot, curious by nature, looks at the viscous liquid spilled on the floor.

Brainfart of the day in my sketchbook: a cat vampire.🦇😼

#vampire #cat #sketchbook #MastoArt
Photo of a sketchbook page: 4 sketches of a cat behaving like a Vampire: showing proudly teeth, playing organ, trying to bite another cat, hidding in his cloack. It's not drawn realistically, greyscale cartoony humourous pencil sketches. License: CC-BY 4.0


Concept-art for a dark environment: something work in progress for the future episode of Pepper&Carrot. It was done on a train on my way back home and I really like this new small sketchbook with toned paper.

#unplugged #sketchbook
#MastoArt
Photo of a page of my sketchbook: on a tobacco-colored toned paper (a bit less than a A5 size landscape, 21x15cm) , a fantasy fictive architectural bridge with a mix of gothic and industrial metal structure. On one pilar of the bridge, stands a sort of tower of castle with a big clock on it. The scene is in mountain with mist. It's all in all a sort of mix between a gothic cathedral, Big Ben and some metal bridges from the start of the century. The drawing is done from imagination using black pencil (Faber Castel), on the photo too, and white corrector Tipp-Ex and various other black pens.

not exactly the prompt's theme, more like a derivative.
