Day 15?

Hey guys!
So my hands are hurting a bit from work today so instead of drawing a new sketch I'll be sharing a never before seen illustration that I did a few months ago. This is part of my Elder Scrolls fan book project collecting illustrations and comics, as well as photos of props I've made, having to do with the Elder Scrolls games (as well as showing my love for them).

This illustration features my Oblivion character Mureil the Shadow Bard. Its my personal headcannon that she is the grandmother of my Skyrim character Merion the Lioness.
Here she is offering glow dust to the shrine of Azura while she is also being rewarded for completing Azura's quest by receiving 'Azura's Star.'

In other news it turns out I'm going to have over time ALL WEEK starting tomorrow so I'll be working 10 hour days and getting home by about 1am every night. Which will be taking up the night hours that I usually work on these sketches so I'm hoping I'll have time in the mornings to get these done but just in case I don't I'll try to share more finished works that I've been unable to share previously (or have just forgotten about) so you'll have something nice to look at while I'm gone. So bare with me, this week will be a bit rough :/

In the mean time be sure to keep up with podcasting machine El Goro, as he reviews a movie every day with "31 Days of Halloween."

Colored Pencil Alchemy

Greetings everyone!
I was going to wait until the weekend to post but I thought I'd give you an early Labor Day treat. I realized recently that I hadn't posted any of the more time consuming illustrations that I had done for my Elder Scrolls Art Book project so I thought I'd share one with you today.

This one is of my Skyrim favorite, Merion the Lioness. She's not very good at Alchemy, and can only really make basic healing potions, so here she is slaving over an Alchemy table trying everything in her inventory to gain stats or make something she can at least sell. For this one I decided to use some earthy brown paper I picked up at Micheal's on clearance. I was eager to try some lighting effects with colored pencils and ink for contrast. I'm quite happy with it. I used this paper for a few of the illustrations so far but I will also be mixing it up with some watercolor and digital illustrations as well.

Stay tuned for more! I have a three day weekend coming up. Which means lots of time for working on projects so I'll have more to share coming up!
