I love seeing your stuff because you are growing a lot from primarily having been a writer.

New character and some tweaks to the previous one. Not super happy with this warrior. Probably going to work more on him.
Experimented with drawing a little further from the iPad. It def engaged my shoulder and elbow more.

i think part of the reason I didn’t like my gestures from yesterday was that I used a different height standing position to draw them than normal. So I was kind of looking down more than usual. Plus I had had 2 glasses of wine lol

Did some day drinking today so quality may be off. I don’t like drinking before drawing.

Another character for The Final Spell. Really starting to enjoy the design process with this approach I've been using. It kind of has me wondering if I couldn't draw a whole comic with this kind of messy ink line approach. My idea was to eventually clean up all the designs with an "inking" and color pass. But there is something really nice about messy art.
I really like messy art too especially if they are intentional. F
or comic/manga I think it depends on whether the messiness fits with the theme or the story too, and its hard to suddenly change the style in the middle, but I can see it if suddenly there is a dramatic tonal shift and a different style kicks in, just like movie that switch between anamorphic ratio to 16:9 or 3:4, and its a conscious decision to make the audience aware of it
Ink/Pen brush seems to hard to control and my sketch quality suffers, as I change back to pencil, its a lot easier to do both gesture and structure in 1 go
I think gesture is a little easier to do with some kind of opacity variation on your brush. Unfortunately I haven't found a good opacity brush on Procreate so I sort of just deal with the fact that the line I use is almost 100% opacity on most strokes.
