Fanart

| Peter Ahola

Some post Halloween artwork I’ve been working this past month. Two of my favorite villains Reverse-Flash and Makoto Shishio from Ruroni Kenshin. Also here’s Kiki from Kiki’s Delivery Service, which was kinda a request from a fan on Facebook. He actually requested it in early October, but Kiki’s too cute for our rather dark Halloween Draw Off, so I was saving it for afterwards.

I’m trying to start eliminating heavy use of dark shadow as I feel some of my past drawings had a little too much and it was drawing out the ink. So now I”m trying to lighten it and keep the inking more relevant in the finished art.

Nighttime Lumity

My contribution for Pride Month this year, another Owl House piece featuring Luz and Amity. This is kinda based off an old thought I’ve had, namely in the famous kiss scene from season 2 of the show, where Luz is kinda like the typical dashing hero commonly seen in Disney films, and Amity is her lady in waiting. The the twist is… they are both girls. So here we are with this scene kinda inspired by the movie Aladdin.

Kalwa character sheets

These have already been posted to the Kalwa website, but I wanted to post them here too. So I’ve started making character sheets of my characters as a way keep consistency amongst drawings. Namely color is kinda a struggle since I wind up shifting through tones of old drawings through disks.

I’ve also wanted to have some colorful production art to show off amongst my original work as well as trying to keep some design consistency. Mainly Kalwa’s ponytail hair style is the source of trouble, since it’s a very subtle change to her normal hair. It was actually based off a really life issue with drawing her hair too close to her eyes, as seen below.

I’m currently working on one for Reko too, and have one for my character the Raptor Queen, whose story I’m trying to get back to working on.
