Inktober - Another angel

Inktober - Asenath

I like machines.

Inktober - Phantomfire

For your viewing pleasure, I decided to do a before and after of the coloring so that the line art details are visible. He is very shiny because I didn't want to cover up ALL of the details. The woes of black creatures.....

This is a dragon who appears in Legends of Destiny. I may still change his look a little, but it's been fun to flesh him out.

Inktober - Fellbeast

I don't think I made him creepy enough. Sure was fun to draw, though.

Inktober - Helmet Concept

A little concept art from a future project I'd like to pursue........at some point. I have more than one series that I'd like to be working on right now. This concept is from a series entirely separate from Legends of Destiny. I can already see things I'd like to change, but hey, that's what concepts are for, right? You work out the details on paper.

My work over the last two months has been almost entirely focused on the revision of Wings of Fate. I knew it was going to be a hefty project, but the amount of work I've already put into it has been staggering. I'm about 38% of the way through it, as the manuscript has a habit of growing longer the further I get into it. It's been an exhausting endeavor, and I find myself hoping (without much enthusiasm) that the second and third books in the trilogy won't need quite as much work. I hadn't planned on dedicating another three years to this trilogy, but I think in the end, it will all be worth it. And then when I'm done with that ........... oh my. There are so many things I'd like to be working on.

I desire to add to the subseries Taloner Chronicles. I want to expand the world of Gaia through other books, as well, and not all of them books written mainly from the Laiuna perspective. Sovereign Soul is still waiting patiently for it's turn, and there are others beginning to surface in my mind. It's all a journey.

Inktober - Meditative Angel

Alright, now granted that this is not a tall, leggy blonde babe of an angel. So what? I would like to see more armored angels that are short. Or plain. Or maybe even a little overweight. And I'm tired of fantasy angel art where the woman is flashing way too much skin. I say angels can be beautiful without revealing half (or more) of what the good Lord gave them. I am determined to do more of these!

Inktober - On Yon Fell Horse...

....sits a hurdy gurdy man.

Inktober - Autumn King

I'm enjoying working on my inking this month. Alas, my dearest hubby is away hunting without me because of work. But hey, look! I got an elk, anyway!

Inktober - Release

Happy Inktober!

A few friends of mine are participating in Inktober, a kind of art challenge where artists try to ink something for every day of October. I won't be able to do quite that much, but I wanted to try and draw a few different things, anyway.
