I was working on this for a loooooong time, starting it in the local library in early Aprill and then working on it off and on at home. Apparently Chrome doesn't let me edit this, so I have to open up internet explorer just to draw oekaki. :C
Remember that WIP I posted back in April?
No particular story behind why I had drawn her, aside from her being the only brown girl in all the popular anime broadcasted when I was a kid. (My favourite is actually Sailor Jupiter, haha). I took some liberties with her hair...as well as her facial features since this is a realistic piece not 'anime' by any definition.
Her right eye is larger on purpose (for what purpose, I don't know haha) but it didn't look grossly wrong when I flipped the sketch to check for mistakes).
I often don't paint watercolour in oekaki because it just takes too long! This one practically took 400 minutes when most of my other simpler, cel-shaded ones, take around 100 to 150 minutes to do. Of course I wasted a bit of time manually adjusting the opacity of both the WaterC and Solid brushes so I'd get the proper translucency of her skin. It kept looking like wrinkly tissue in the beginning and that irritated me. When I finished it this week I had gotten comfortable with the tools as well as dug out my tablet.
If you wanna see how I drew it and the sketch, watch this: oekaki animation
(it doesn't take you to livestream but there are a couple livestream dedicated to the colouring of this oekaki)

I hate how I can never get anything productive done at home aside from making something edible. And maybe cleaning my space (it's one of my few strengths, keeping things neat).
I can draw or read practically anywhere. Pretty sad.

Easter doodles
Doodled a bit after lunch on Sunday. My...second cousins, I think? asked me if I could draw "real" people so I drew a bishop.

WIP
Something I've been working on. Spontaneously drew the lineart with a mouse last week in a public library (I have to go out to print stuff in colour heh). Started colouring it earlier this week with a mouse. And tonight (rather, yesterday) I had to restart my computer so the tablet would work;I prolly hve to update my drivers...
Still fudging around with the shading. It's been a while since I did semi-realism in PaintBBS and the watercolor tool still pisses me off. At least using a tablet pen makes it less frustrating.

Loosely based off one of the sketches I did last month. It's an old graduation photo of someone; she's in the lower right. This girl looks a lot darker than I expected, but it's all good. The nose and jawline needs fixing up since I spent a good hour painting the neck and shoulders. x_x

Brobama
my half of an art trade; the girl wanted me to draw her high-fiving Obama with BROBAMA in red beneath the two.
It's my first time drawing a high-profile figure like him.
