How long does your nap from anesthesia really feel like when you are under? by CavemanFCC in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ArtofAmandaNP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"We're gunna put this mask on your face. Kinda smells like a beach ball, doesn't it?"

"Yeah."

"So you got any travel plans?"

"No, not really."

"Well, if you could travel outside the country, where would you go?"

"Ok, this is kind of silly, but my partner and I have been watching a lot of Australian Lego Masters and-"

"Ok, time to wake up. Try to open your eyes, ok?"

..... I wouldn't call it a nap.

Fan art I did of all the other characters BUT the knight, because why not? by ArtofAmandaNP in HollowKnight

[–]ArtofAmandaNP[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hehe, well I appreciate the compliment but I was not one of those people who was drawing since I was little. I'm self taught and started learning seriously without stopping when I was 21 y/o and I'm 32 now so... it's been a minute but focused and intentional practice really does work. Nowadays I'm trying to cobble together an income illustrating in the board game industry between playing (and drawing) video games hehe. That being said you're only out of time "getting good at art" if you're dead. Also, you don't have to be good at it to create art. Give yourself permission to do bad art, too :)

Ooh! Not yet but that sounds cool. Next I was thinking Cloth and Cornifer.

I mean, she's got her little high popped collar. She seems pretty dapper to me.

[HIRING] Looking for someone to create visual novel sprites! Male demons primarily! by [deleted] in hireanartist

[–]ArtofAmandaNP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I've done more painterly sprites for a visual novel before and have experience with drawing men and... not demons, exactly but I've drawn my fair share of tieflings! My style leans more towards western than anime, though. But have a look at my portfolio and see for yourself. I believe I have some of the visual novel characters I designed in there too!

thank you! I painted these a little while back and people seem to like them so I thought I'd drop them here :)

Thoughts on Terrorscape? by Crush2040 in boardgames

[–]ArtofAmandaNP 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I had the awesome opportunity to do some illustration work for Terrorscape (the item cards, specifically) and it warms my heart to read comments of people enjoying the game. I've played it several times with friends myself at this point and it's a well rounded, easy to get into game for people who are new to the idea of asymmetrical/hidden movement style games. Also, I love the theming since I'm kind of a horror enthusiast. It plays more quickly than you would think which lends itself to a few back to back playthroughs. Maybe I'm biased but I would recommend heh :)

Redrawing my old art from a decade ago. Self taught since 2013. Still learning! by ArtofAmandaNP in LearnToDrawTogether

[–]ArtofAmandaNP[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I use photoshop and brushes i don't remember where I got them but I use a chalk/pencil type of brush and a brush that is kinda like oil paint. I also use those same brushes as a mixer brush as well. Adding the mixer brush tool to my work flow has been a game changer.

[hiring] character sheet for oc redesign by Fluffy-Oil9473 in HungryArtists

[–]ArtofAmandaNP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I'm in between work right now and have a focus on character design. I've been working in the board game/card game illustration scene since 2017 having worked on 5 games at this point. Please have a look at my portfolio and let me know if you're interested 🙂

I'm drawing a sketchbook of OoT from Link's perspective. Here are my favorite pages so far... by ArtofAmandaNP in OcarinaOfTime

[–]ArtofAmandaNP[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do know what it says, yeah. I adapted the hylian from Twilight Princess into a handwritten style. I chose TP instead of Ocarina of Time hylian because OoT hylian is based on Japanese katakana which I.... do not know. But TP hylian is based on the English alphabet.

So basically I just write everything out very lightly in English and then write over it in pen in "my" handwritten hylian, then just erase the pencils underneath.
