Description This is all embarrassingly old stuff (seriously, from end of 2016 till August 2017) but, uh, yeah, I realized it's been a solid year+ since I've done one of these and I wanted to. just. dump a bunch of stuff here!!!  
...In which you all learn that if I start a digital painting I'll never finish it, and I still just draw a lot of mopey Ians roflmao

I'd actually like to revisit the sketch of Sariel with her wings growing in though, hmmm that could be fun hehe B)

It feels a little dumb to be uploading some pretty old/crappy sketches, but to be honest it's become like a principle/ritual for me?  It's actually pretty humbling looking through all of my sketchdumps to see how far I've come, haha.  

Anyway yeah, sorry this comes so belatedly!  If y'all want to keep up with my sketches please feel free to follow me on Instagram , I post sketches there a lot more frequently-!!  

Thanks for all of the love and support!!  \^0^/

I REEEALLY love your sketches (i said that, I know). But now I particularly enjoy the ones with a thousand lines, usually those scene composition that looks like a storyboard. I find them fascinating!
And wee, loved seeing Nezha! He was the one teaming up with Sun Wu Kung, right? ^^

And yeeaaahh NeZha, I don't draw that boy enough-!! Yup he's the one who teams up with WuKong, they're a wonderfully terrible duo XD

I always love looking at sketchdumps, no matter how "old" the sketches are*^*
I don't really know a lot about your OCs (checking in on dA only once in a while) but I like Sariel a lot, hehe! Gotta stalk- eerrrrrrr follow you on instagram!

Aaahhhhhhhhh thank you so much for the kind comment, it really means a lot to me, and thank you so much for showing an interest in my OCs!!  ;=;  

And ahahaha, thanks, yeah I do post a lot more frequently on Instagram, it's a good place to stay in touch!

You're very welcome <3
I tend to fall in love with OCs that feel like they have a *real* story beneath them. You know, I see many artists just posting artworks and designs of their characters and it's become a rare thing to find someone whose characters feel... like actual *characters* instead of just some lovely designs.
And and and I'm also really happy that you started to draw the Iris comic, I'm looking forward to reading it!! o v o (Although I'll wait for more pages before reading it to get really drawn into it, sorry for that ; A ; )

Super-belated reply but THANK YOU SO MUCH for your words, they really mean a lot to me!!  I totally know what you mean, I get really bored of seeing cool-looking characters posing in front of blank backgrounds or just pinup drawings hahahahaha, it's just really uninteresting to me!  I'm always trying to ground my characters in scenes and moments... so it really, really means a lot to me to hear that from you!!  

And hahahaha no worries I totally get how you feel, weekly updates for comics are good for the creators I feel but terrible for the audience!!  I completely understand if you wanna wait 'till a lot of pages are out before reading it all in one go XD

YamiKaori In reply to Laitma [2018-02-09 07:08:07 +0000 UTC]

Aah no worries!! I check in on dA only once in a while, so I won't replay as often as well, so it's totally fine!!! ; A ;
YESH that's exactly what I mean!! Sometimes I even get the feeling that the characters repeat, because the designs feel... empty (without soul) to me and I start confusing them... But I don't have that problem with your characters so far (I don't know that much about them for now, but I hope that will change hehe) and that makes me really happy. You're very welcome <3

Wah ok, then I can be at ease, haha! XD I also hope I didn't pressure you :'D I know it's much work to draw even one page a week, especially when there's a real life (a what?) outside, so I'll wait patiently! o v o

Ahhhhh this is a super-belated reply sorry, but nooo you're not pressuring me at all hahah, I think I know what works for me so I'll be sticking to my weekly page update I feel, but however people want to read my comic is all cool by me!!  x)  

And thank you, I'm so happy to hear that my characters feel interesting-!!  ;o;  Same goes for you!!

Oh man have you really already made 53 sketch compilations?? That's crazy impressive!! I've always looked forward to seeing your sketch dumps, it's just like, comforting to scroll through y'know?

Laitma In reply to spacerocketbunny [2018-01-21 04:42:02 +0000 UTC]

Ahhhh I'm sorry I never showed it to you earlier-!!  I kept meaning to do something better but couldn't get anything to come out right, sob ;__;

And, ahahahaha, I'm glad they're fun to go through??  It's comforting for me too going through and seeing that I've improved, but also taking note of the concepts/ideas I've sketched out!

Why in a one long picture? There are some nice things, I like crying Sariel the most - very well drawn it would be better to watch if pictures were separated.

Laitma In reply to tranki-zieleniack [2018-01-12 21:15:06 +0000 UTC]

Hahahah these are all the individual sketches I didn't think were good enough to post separately, so they're all compiled here!!  Also I wouldn't want to spam people with too many unfinished things!!  Thank you so much for the kind words though!!  I really loved the crying Sariel drawing too!  xD

It's not spamming in my opinion I realised many people present sketches in one big piece and (in my opinion) it's hard to focus on every picture if all of them are next to each other.
