Today's Drawrch illustration is of a man yelling. The reference image was named "preacher", so that's where I got the idea for the title from.

This was done in a looser style again, with a somewhat quick sketch. I like the result, although I think the mouth might look a little strange. It fits the style though.

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Inka brush for linework, the Old Brush paint brush for shading, the Fat Nozzle spray paint brush for texture, and the Syrup brush for fills and other utilities.

Picking a good reference for Drawrch is tough sometimes, because I want to make sure that it's something that looks interesting to draw, and I do want to challenge myself, but I also have to be considerate of how much time it might take to complete. So oftentimes, I end up avoiding really busy references, or references that include a lot of peripheral stuff, like hands, glasses, etc.

I really like this reference, but I was a bit worried about it initially because the angle of the head is a tough one to get right, and I didn't want to spend an hour sketching only to have to abandon it for another reference. Thankfully, that didn't happen this time, and even though it's not perfect, I feel like I was able to capture the look of the reference pretty well. All in about an hour and 45 minutes. Not bad!

As always, this was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Inka brush for linework, and the Old Brush paint brush for shading. I also used the Syrup brush here and there for fills and other utilities.

I'm not sure why the guy in today's Drawrch illustration is wearing a crown, but that's what was happening in my reference so... there it is. 😅

Today's Drawrch features a reference photo that I've been sort of hesitant to attempt. The woman in the photo and the angle of the shot made it feel like it'd be hard to recreate.

I've been leaning into a less realistic style for this project though, and so I figured that might help me a bit. I think that it did, though I had a hard time breaking away from doing the shading in a more realistic way (at least, relative to the underlying sketch).

It captures the essence of the reference though, I think. Someday I'll have to make a video showing all the references alongside the final art. 😎

Today's Drawrch illustration is a short one.

Work has been crazy, allergies are kicking in, I'm recovering from being sick, and I need to rest - so today's drawing is a basic one. I do like doing cartoons in this style though, so I can't complain. 😄

I did today's Drawrch illustration in a playing card style because I like playing cards and I'm tired and need some rest tonight!

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Studio Pen brush for linework, and the Soft Brush air brush for slight shading.

Today's Drawrch illustration is of a woman looking slightly amused.

This is my second attempt to draw this woman, the first being my very first Drawrch illustration this year. The first time, I just couldn't get the expression correct, and so I gave up until I was a bit more "warmed up" for the project.

Waiting paid off in terms of the sketch; I was able to do that party fairly quickly and felt like it looked pretty nice compared to the reference. Choosing a style and coloring it turned out to be quite a challenge though, and so I'm posting this one late.

To be fair, I like how it looks at the end. I just hate that it took so much effort to get there! 😅

Anyway, this was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Syrup brush for linework, and the Soft air brush for shading. I tried a lot of other things in there, but I'm not naming all the brushes I experimented with because they didn't end up in the final piece.

Today's Drawrch illustration is of a man wincing.

I'm not sure if I captured his expression completely accurately - you can see that I started drawing this pretty loose and then tightened up the sketch at the end before "inking" - but it still reads "wince" to me, so I'm alright with it.

Today's Drawrch illustration is of a woman looking to the left. I've wanted to draw this image for a while but couldn't settle on a good style for it. I'm glad I finally decided to go for it tonight, because I'm happy with how it turned out!
