Digital Art / Ink / Sketching · January 28, 2022

Sword of the brave

This one started as a sketch around 2016 and it was just there in a piece of paper, not even a sketchbook I think. It went through several trials to get to where it is now. In 2017 I inked it and tried a few different things and again, dropped it for years haha.

On Dec 2017 I was in the middle of moving and even so, I’m not sure how, I did a ton of skeches. Maybe because I didn’t have good internet?

This was inspired by a Disney’s Brave sticker my kid had. She had like a book of Disney stickers. I love Merida and her curly hair. Decided to make this sketch inspired by Merida’s hair and “badassery”. I was into armor and knighty things back then (and maybe even now)

By the time I finished this, it was May of 2020 and I was streaming sometimes. This was finished on stream with some friends hanging out with me. It was pretty cool! Streaming was kind of convenient too, because Twitch would save the video and I could download it and speed it up to upload to Youtube, and that’s exactly what I did.
