A little preview and peek at work in progress.

Here's a little bit of unfinished artwork for chapter 3 of Flux which I'm currently working on. Looking back over chapter 1 I can see how much I have come on using the tablet. I was completely new to digital art and chapter 1 was essentially my practice. I sometimes look at chapter 1 and worry that the quality is so inconsistent with the following chapters that it may put people off. I want to say "give it a chance, it gets better, honest!" If I had more time to do so I'd be tempted to go back and redo the artwork for chapter 1, but that would severely delay the following chapters.



Sketch and start of inking.

This led to things being rushed, focusing purely on getting it finished rather than enjoying the process. I decided to step back from it and not touch it until I actually wanted to, rather than feeling I had to. So far I've not felt the desire to do so. I will eventually, but for now other pastimes have taken my focus. As always, I'm constantly looking for ways to take something I enjoy and turn it into a living, or at least make some extra money on the side of the day job. Although I'd always intended to do some standalone pieces of artwork, I'd never really thought to what end. I few weeks ago I attended the Yorkshire Cosplay Con with my partner Gen, where we proceeded to purchase a fair collection of artwork from the many artist stalls. Adding t
