Forlorn Knights - Darksome Arising; A vigilante story

 

Hey everyone! Here are three vigilantes, which are also posted in my other blog that I'm using for the more behind the scenes-content once I get more of my story out. If you want to support my work, please buy me a coffee. ;)

In my story Forlorn Knights - Darksome Arising, in some towns there is unrest and for some reason the king's guards cannot solve the problem with local villains. This is where vigilantes come into play and solve it for them.

Ol' Fist, Impala and Twoblades are three characters in that part of the story.

Mixing in some vigilante/heroes themes into my story definitely creates some benefits for the general plotline. Hope they're fun for you as much as they're entertaining for me.

They appear in one arc, however, if I ever get to make spin-offs then I will make an entire comic series of it.

 

2020 - This blog makes a return

 Reactivating this blog, since social media becomes an obstacle these days. Trying to update everyone here as well as on Facebook, though this will begin to be slowly shifted over to the blog. Posting about my work and some little thoughts, as well es newly created brushes for Adobe Photoshop that emulate traditional media! I hope you're looking forward to it.

A lot was happening the recent years, but life goes on.

To begin with a new concept drawing for my personal IP named Forlorn Knights - Darksome Arising, I may show a never before uploaded work here to mark the new start for this blog:

This character of mine named Karasu has been drawn using the digital illustration software Rebelle 3. It has a close resemblance to traditional media, per example pencils!

Last but not least - the prior post showed plenty of links to sites I'm no longer active in. I plan to be mostly active here, for as much as it allows on Facebook, and my work can be viewed as per normal on ArtStation as well.

Hope everyone is doing well - stay safe everyone.

My Sketchbook 2014 PDF for Download

Hello everyone,

just want to throw out a quick update: If you are interested in looking at my sketches and drawings, I have collected many of my drawings from last year and offer a sketchbook PDF file on Dropbox for you, so you do not have to flip through every page in my Tumblr blog.

Although I think that my drawings and sketches from last year cannot compete with the big industry pro's of this world, I still want to share them to show you my growth throughout my life.

You are able to view and/or download my Sketchbook 2014 here: Link


If you want to follow my most recent updates and works, just visit or watch my Tumblr blog:

daveart.tumblr.com



I wish you lots of fun and maybe inspiration by following my work. I will continue to do my best possible for my plans at the current point in time.


More news will be posted soon. Stay tuned.

More updates coming

Hello everyone,

after private problems slowed down my working processes, new updates will follow soon. As I have been distracted so much, I will now update what I have forgotten due to the circumstances. I thank everyone who is visiting this blog and hope you will stop by frequently.

May Update and June

Hello everyone,

this post shows up a bit delayed due to being busy regarding many different reasons. New artwork that has been created recently (digital colour):

Apart from this there are more images waiting to be completed. I have also a bunch of new sketches and drawings in my sketchbook on Tumblr (as well as some posts without images, so keep flipping through the pages if you want) http://daveart.tumblr.com/

There are also new Photoshop brushes emulating natural media right here: http://food-for-crows.deviantart.com/gallery/


Regarding a new PDF Sketchbook: I have yet to think how to present this, the best thing would be an interactive sketchbook but I have no idea where I should start... I will figure something out though.

As for this month: A new Photoshop Brush set will be revealed if things work out as planned, and new artwork should show up as well. If you want to stay up to date, looking into my sketchbook (Tumblr link above) is the best option, as you can keep track of my work way quicker. I will probably take a few days for following this year's E3 press conference though.


Have a good day and see you next time.

Quick Update

Hello dear visitors, here is a quick update:

New artwork:

And new Brushes have been uploaded to the Deviantart Account that I am running with my best friend:

http://food-for-crows.deviantart.com/


I hope you will have a relaxing weekend. By the way, new drawings and sketches will soon be uploaded to my sketchbook: http://daveart.tumblr.com/

Soon I will write a post explaining more about a new downloadable PDF sketchbook I have in mind, as my very old one that I once created has been created many years ago.
