Took me 2 hours (don't judge, i fell asleep multiple times for a sec lol). Far from perfect but some nice study i guess.

I was about to close magma for today, when i saw there was a jam for drawing knights, - so i joined, even though i fell asleep for some moments and had to do some jumping jacks.

Quick Shadow/Tear Study, Time 1h 30minutes, not perfect but better than nothing i guess.

''Quick'' King Balduin IV. Warm up, to fight the Artblock, not perfect but fun. Time: 1h 15 min

Little 30 min thing, just to escape the artblock, might delete later.

That's what 11+ hours looking like. Well, i wanted to draw some quick portrait at a freedraw but was displeased with the sizes of the brushes so i switched to my privat canvas, and well, it escalated a bit, turned to something more than a head portrait. It's not perfect but i really spend enough time on that.
Thanks for reading :)

Wanted to share a Close up, so you can see the skin textures i tried doing here, the veins on the hands, the brittle lips, the rings and the vibes lol.
Not perfect, but in the end it was just a little project, to see how my skills changed after 12 months, when i drew the same motive back then, when i joined Magma.com.

Well, if you scroll down to my first post, you'll see the same picture as here, in the right top corner.
I need to thank Magma.com, without this website, i may wouldn't have used my graphic tablet no more. The easiness of this platform made it so nice to try new things out. I remember sitting on this drawing a whole Saturday and i was proud. Now, 12 months later i sit and wonder. My style changed a bit, my skills with my Wacom improved, i got into digital art, as an usual traditional little self-taught artist. I wanted to draw the same motive, to see what changed. Well, the skin is not longer THAT glossy and the pearls were much easier this time to draw. But especially the vision i see. There is more spirit, more determination and more trust in myself. 'Cause every artpiece is tried, is better then one, i hesitated and didn't draw, because of the fear, of doing it wrong. Still not where i want to be, still struggle a lot, still doubting myself very hard daily, but art doesn't need to be perfect. We learn over time.

Well, it's really not perfect. not highly rendered as usual but it's a fictive character and setting, so i didn't spend so much time with it. Took me still 7 hours, oops. If everything works out, i'm able to make this chibi flying around the head- trend.
Light and Vibe is almost reminding me of the Lion King Scene where they're lying under the night sky.

It took me almost a month, well 17+ hours to draw Thranduil from Lord of the Rings.
I got the idea from dragons-of-unia who asked me to draw Legolas. But i decided to try out drawing Thranduil, his father.
The armor took me wayy to long to turn out this meh, but at least i could practice to draw light hair. I was playing a lot with the colors and that's the finished artpiece now. Happy to start something new soon. :)

I LOVE that magma added the zooming option into our galleries, like YES PLEASE zoom into my art, look at the many unnecessary details i've put into my artworks! :')

Today nothing worked out for me, my wips and other creative stuff i wanted to do on my free day, 'cause something felt wrong with me. So i joined this jam 1 1/2 hour ago and now feel grateful for magma, drawing with others always motivates me.<3 Quick little something with hue of blue.

"Imagine living like a king someday,
a single night without a ghost in the walls."

I finally finished this artpiece. I drew this face low quality and effort on my last jam in 45 minutes and thought, what if i make the rendering a bit better? Well... 8-9 Hours later this is what we got now. A better crown and stuff. First time trying to make a 'cooler' background, i don't know. Think i have to post this now, 'cause i'll never be satisfied i guess. So have fun. I don't know. Thanks for everyone who takes time reading this.<3

I've been drawing Thranduil from LotR the last two days. It's really hard to catch his elegance and the starring cold gaze. Plus i'm doing a completly different color theme then my reference and trying to let the light come from a different side. Hope it will turn out fine...

''Be brave.''
Little Dark Fantasy Elf Vibes.
After 6 hours of drawing i'm okay with this drawing, even though it didn't get the usual rendering treatment as some other art-pieces of me.
Rendering the sword bail thing took besides the hair the most time i guess.

I started this artwork in march but never had the motivation to finish this piece, because i was scared, i would ruin it. The last 3 days i sat there and locked in, after 9 hour i succeed to finish it, finally.
Listening to Enya while drawing this, made me feel like living in another world, was a vibe.

Wanted today to join a relaxing jam again, after a long time and drew some ''quick'' Edward Scissorhands Portrait. Not perfect but well.. 1 1/2 hours work or less, i guess?

Ahhhh, finally finishing an artpiece which was waiting for me for months. At first i was not motivated enough, then i was on vacation for some days, but now i'm back. Hope i'm able to post it in a few hours hehe.

This took me 8 1/2 hours actively drawing. At first it was a simple portrait but i was yearning after something more vulnerable, something magical. Think i'm okay with it now.
Wish y'all a gr8 weekend!

Okay, after almost 15k strokes and over 8 hours drawing, plus some really annoying headaches i want to finish this, by posting it. Still have to learn rendering light hair and the face in the sun doesn't look like light somehow.
At first i thought, this artwork will never look anything like something i want to share, it was really wild, but even though it feels not like my usual style, i want to share this now.
Greetings, Ps: Don't forget to eat and drink friends.

Finally, after 3 days i finished this artpiece, plus i changed up some parts i didn't like (that's why the repost).
Some knight dude, as always. Inspo from a Dude from Insta, don't know his @ anymore sadly.
Drawing the hair was a wild up an down because of the lights, but it turned out okay i guess.

''I think I saw you in my dreams
You were stitching up the seams
On every broken promise that your body couldn't keep'' - was replaying this song Such small Hands from La Dispute over and over again, while drawing this.
