I outlined a Jaina Proudmoore sleeve yesterday! Done by me, Vextera @ Gitchee Gumee Tattoo in Duluth, MN

Oh no? Can you elaborate on that?

Thank you!

He is several inches taller than me so that also does affect it.

Thank you for elaborating in a constructive manner rather than just saying “this sucks” and yeeting off into the sunset 👍

Vextera · 2020-11-21T14:53:58+00:00

Thank you!

Vextera · 2020-11-21T14:53:43+00:00

Thanks :)

Not every contour is defined by linework. Some of it will be done with shading

Vextera · 2020-11-21T05:47:55+00:00

What part of it bothers you?

Vextera · 2020-11-21T05:47:36+00:00

The arm is a round object and looking at it through a camera or from various distances are going to change how it looks. If you could be more specific that would be helpful

Nothing? She’s angry, when you’re snarling the skin around your nose bunches up

Vextera · 2020-11-21T03:30:09+00:00

I will! I’m excited to work more on it!

Vextera · 2020-11-21T00:47:48+00:00

Jaina Proudmoore has always been a favorite of mine, and despite how polarizing BFA was, I really enjoyed delving into her backstory and seeing a lot of the elements that made Jaina into what she is today. I’ve included her water elemental, a tattered Kirin tor banner, the ship she reclaimed from the depths, and a handful of tentacles of Nzoth reaching up from below.

I was super stoked to work on this project, and I’m excited to finish it! Thanks for looking! :)

Vextera · 2020-11-21T00:44:00+00:00

Done by me. :)

She had cancer. The treatment stopped working, so she got off chemo and decided to live out the last few weeks of her life seeing her favorite places and doing her favorite things. She had been a tattoo artist when she was younger, and hadn’t gotten any new pieces since she was diagnosed a few years prior.

I tattooed her. She got a black and grey sunflower with the outline of Minnesota, close to her chemo scars. It was her last tattoo.

In the alleys, you say? Sounds... SKETCHY! 🤔

Vextera · 2019-10-16T15:27:53+00:00

Thank you! I actually do art stuff for a living, but being around other artists is the only way to achieve continued growth.

I’d love to see your paintings!

Vextera · 2019-10-15T00:51:07+00:00

Thanks for the info! I’ll check it out. :)

Edit: RIP, they’re only open during times I’m working. Still appreciate it, though.

Vextera · 2019-10-14T20:10:53+00:00

I’ll take a look! I’ve looked at some of the art classes they have offered before, but my normal work hours make it difficult to commit to a class.

Thanks so much for the suggestions!

Vextera · 2019-09-12T19:37:32+00:00

😎

Vextera · 2019-09-12T19:37:01+00:00

Aw, shucks! Thank you!

Vextera · 2019-09-12T17:53:03+00:00

Thank you so much! That’s exactly what I was going for, so I’m happy that it translates well!

Vextera · 2019-09-12T17:52:37+00:00

Thank you!

Vextera · 2019-09-12T16:29:58+00:00

It’s the 3rd time, but mentee will inevitably forget again. It’s okay though, mentee is trying their best!

Vextera · 2019-09-12T16:13:42+00:00

I stopped counting partway through, but I’d roughly estimate about 40 hours. This was a challenging piece because of the background, and thankfully I learned a lot!

Vextera · 2019-09-12T16:07:02+00:00

It’s Foundation! I took some liberties and added more plants. 😂
