Portfolio gylfie's Artwork - the journey continues

[gylfie]

hi it's been 84 years and all my image links are broken

i bought clip studio and its fun!

hmu if you play sky

i watched promare and lio's rampage was phenomenal to watch and the soundtrack SLAPS

consistent art style? idk her :///

 

[juiccbox]

Art amazing as always. Love the colors in the first one

 

[Typhlosion]

Better 84 years than 3,000 years, eh? All these pieces are great in spite of the different art style, or maybe even because of that. No two are the same but they all do a great job conveying tone in their own ways. You really nailed that.

 

[gylfie]

yall are too kind

more stuff bc we're all bored

some drawpile sketches from a while ago. pls if anyone wants to draw with me lmk!!! drawpile is rly fun i promise

im also really desperate to talk about the tower of god anime so if you're gonna watch that PLEASE msg me

yusufa dies in canon? irrelevant.
don't mind me slapping on filters and blend modes til the colours look right

oh also octopath traveler is on sale for half price rn so if you wanna know why i draw the characters so much, go buy it

 

[gylfie]

funny how having a studio job means i actually have more time and energy to sketch for fun than i ever did in school.....
anyways new stuff I'm rly proud of!!!!

the alfyn one is referenced from this amazing cosplayer

i drew this last one because i finished a synth v cover i'd been sitting on for months. I'm really out here living my 16 year old self's dreams. if you wanna give it a listen id super appreciate it!!

 

[Gokudera]

I'm late, but you have some damn good pieces here!
I especially like that mermaid crawling out of the water and the fire breathing fellow tied up. The lighting with the fire is great.
And the waves crashing against the shore in that 3rd mermaid drawing is phenomenal!

 

[gylfie]

ty devin!!! i spent so much time rendering the water there... it still stands as one of my favourite pieces

been drawing a lot still so here are a few more things! mostly tower of god bc I've been watching it and it's so good....

(wip)

close ups bc i feel like you can't really see the characters. oops bad compositionnnnnnn

 

[Typhlosion]

Come on, Darius, get it together man...

Megan, on the other hand, has already gotten everything together. You certainly could have fooled me that that's a work in progress. As for the lower pieces, I actually really like how the composition of the whole thing turned out. The zoomed-out shot along with the close-ups of the characters beneath it functions in my mind like a triptych.

 

[gylfie]

hm fair enough! originally i didn't include close ups so glad it ended up looking alright!

not sure if anyone will even be interested but I'm doing donation sketch commissions! I'll sketch a character/pokemon/pet of your choice if you donate at least $10 to any organization/fund in this document. Make it $20 and I'll colour it! Just send me a screenshot of your receipt please!

***edit: these are now closed***

 

[gylfie]

been doing pet portraits in exchange for donations. if you want one done, just message me

(no, i didn't forget to draw one of her legs)

 

[gylfie]

may i offer you these lil lads from the draw pile in this trying time??

plus some boys from 8path and tog that i drew in another drawpile. I'll probably have some loz stuff to post soon

forgot to include my drawing of neowise like a clown u_u

 

[gylfie]

Can't believe I forgot to post both of these,,

plus a study that i might paint over again sometime

 

[Typhlosion]

Is there a value to painting things over? Looks pretty well composed to me.

not really. other than it being a decently quick way to get a nice looking piece to put on like. instagram or twitter. there isn’t a whole lot of benefit to it. i guess it counts as rendering practice or could be used as a portrait commission example. i just think it looks kinda messy and i only used a boring circle brush so it could look a lot better with textured brushes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[gylfie]

a lil vampire tiz for halloween

THE prettiest character in tower of god don't @ me + a doodle bc i think im funny

and lastly here's one for the fangurlz

 

[PrimalIvysaur]

Stunning work as expected Gylfie, keep at it!

new stuff! I'm trying to get used to clip studio paint because all i see these days is all the cool stuff it can do that photoshop can't. it's kinda tricky sometimes tho. anyone got any tips?


i love the crown tundra costumes. i think they're so cute.

my friends and i played showdown this week so i doodled some mons and characters that made appearances :-)

 

[Typhlosion]

I can state with confidence that I have zero tips on how to use clip studio paint but I still think the drawings turned out great. Was there a battling theme about Psychic-types?

It's pretty neat how in SwSh they actually made the players change clothes sometimes based on what they were doing in the overworld. I haven't played them so this may be part of the kit, but did you draw Gloria with a face mask?

 

[gylfie]

mmmm nope, at least not intentionally! they were random battles so the mons were whatever showdown decided. reuniclus showed up and it's one of my faves so i had to draw it. i also think galarian rapidash looks pretty cool so when it showed up, i decided to sketch it too.

ahah i don't know if there are face masks in swsh since i don't have the game but they have the crown tundra outfits in PoGo and they also have face masks. so thats actually a sketch of my current PoGo avatar :'D

 

[Thundawave]

Really like how your drawings turned out! Love the expressions that you chose for both the people and Pokemon.

I’ve only used Clip Studio Paint to test out how making some signatures would work on it, but Brian has used it for a few avatars if you wanna hit him up about what he knows. None of us would consider ourselves experts in any way though.
