From a Hayao Miyaki themed drink & draw stream.

Kind of an off night for me. At least No Face is easy to draw.

Putzing around with more emotive figure drawing and it turned in to this.

Photon from The Marvels as portrayed by Teyonah Parris.

More experimenting with watercolor on the Niltech tone paper.

Built up from a figure/pose study.

Bewitched.
No, not the show. Just something about screams she's in a coven.
Random piece to test watercolor on the Niltech tone stock. Works pretty well. I'll need to press it obviously (you can see the cockles in the scan). I put down a lot of liquid and it held up for the most part. I left in the sketch book while working on.

"What If...?" Se 2, ep 6 introduced a new superhero. Kahhori (pronounced KAH-HORTI), a member of the Mohawk Nation in precolonial times. I like the character, and the branch of the MCU it opens up. I was inspired to draw the titular character and for a bit of spin I used the voice actor, Devery Jacobs, as the reference for the face.

Majestrix Lilandra Neramani of the Shi'ar Empire.

A pose/figure study turned into a character as suggested by Mark Kessler.

Marker, pencil, and ink of 9x12 Niltech tone paper.

Kabuki

Part of a David Mack themed drink & draw. David is well know for his beautiful watercolor work. This is my poor imitation with his character; Kabuki.

Kingpin

Part of a David Mack themed drink & draw. Based on a screenshot of Vincent D'Onofrio as the Kingpin from the "Echo" series trailer. I think of him turning slowly as the last thing you see after you 'ef around.

Tomorrow's Drink & Draw is David Mack themed. I'm planning to draw/paint Kabuki and roughed out a few poses. Which should I go with?

Romani Witch

There was a short lived version of Scarlet Witch called "Gypsy Witch"; a name which wouldn't fly today. The character had distinct Romani influences and I wanted to take a spin at that look and feel.

I have one more of the red blanks, for the next I probably need to use paints.

Tank Girl

I did the pencils roughs on Dec 30 and the rest Jan 1.

I made a few mistakes but overall I'm pretty happy with it.

While I wasn't the biggest fan of the 1602 episode of "What If" I will always like Peggy Carter in whatever form we get her. The character is fantastic and Hayely Atwell embodies her wonderfully. Anywho.. I drew this sitting in a McDonalds and colored it once I got home.

I did record the coloring process.

Took a break from drawing ladies to do this raged out Homelander. Kept it pretty loose. I had just done a 5-hour drawing and wasn't up to doing a ton of detail. I think it still works okay though.

Empyrean Nomad
(Wanderer of the Heavens)

One thing participating in my first art exhibit gave me the an appreciation of doing non-IP work. So now, from time to time, I'll be doing pieces like this. Pieces that aren't tied to anything and are done just for the joy of doing them. I recognize that they may not be commercially viable but I can do these just for me.

9x12 mixed media on Niltech tone paper.

No story for this. Create your own in the comments..

Colleen Wing

I drew Misty Knight the other day, so it seemed fitting to draw Colleen too.

The hand holding the scabbard is a bit wonky...and that's after I tried to "fix" it. It was worse. :/

I like the Tank Girl aesthetic and felt like drawing something in that vain. This is not any particular character; just a punk with a bazooka. The pencils were done on my lunchbreak, the replay shows the inking and coloring.

I had this idea for another TMNT/Usagi Yojimbo sketch variant comic, but for the life my I couldn't find my blank. Still, the idea wouldn't leave my head until I got it on paper. So here is Usagi and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in an homage to Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai." Done on handcrafted tone paper with markers, ink, and white pencil.

I'm gearing up for a local convention in February so here's TMNT and Usagi enjoying ono grinds Hawaiian style. Can't come to islands on a diet.

Grayscale (warm and cool) seemed to be the way to go, both for the visual aesthetic and to facilitate the process.
