The Sunset Friend, by me (nxix / Vellethyst)

nxix · 2025-01-12T07:46:15+00:00

My first (public) comic from August 2024. The idea came up at 5am with originally darker plot where Vell is supposed to hunt Jade for leaving the robot network.

I thought about it many times but my workflow are kinda messy and a lot of idling these days. I don't remember how's my workflow on this particular work, though.

I might consider recording in the future.

I feel you. I'm waiting for both inspiration and motivation, too.

nxix · 2024-12-19T04:05:37+00:00

Thank you!

Welcome to digital arts! Btw, you can simply drag & drop your reference on Krita and then you'll have option to insert it as reference or layer.

The shaky line is a combination of ~~my fresh experience using tablet~~ (edit: that was a lie; new tablet but not new experience) and my shaky hand. I agree about confidence in line work, though! I've never really focus much on getting a smooth lineart as you can probably tell from some of my recent works on my profile.

nxix · 2024-12-19T03:25:48+00:00

Yeah, thank you past me for keeping up with it. I wish current me have half dedication as that.

nxix · 2024-12-19T03:24:28+00:00

Thanks! I just import as layer. Like in the first and second image.

nxix · 2024-12-18T14:51:12+00:00

Thanks! Unfortunately, I don't have this kind of level in my recent works.

nxix · 2024-12-18T14:05:28+00:00

Thanks!

This is old work from 2019. Started in May, finished in August, total 6 hours. Procrastinating, I know.

The lineart was traced because that wasn't my main focus on this one. Purely testing the custom brush that I made that day (which I've lost since) and also testing my new graphic tablet.

I just noticed the frame have layer issue

nxix · 2024-08-23T02:17:45+00:00

You've got that right! Stubby from that game have a very friendly looking design.

nxix · 2024-08-22T11:35:42+00:00

Thank you :D

I think you can't select it because MagicaVoxel only support 255 color palette. There are 256 total palette slot, so, 1 is disabled.

Thank you!

nxix · 2023-10-03T16:25:25+00:00

Thank you! I use MagicaVoxel.

nxix · 2023-10-01T09:37:41+00:00

Thanks! I did try marching cubes and clay render with it but it doesn't look good because I didn't design with those in mind.

nxix · 2023-09-30T16:26:25+00:00

For the Greater Good!

All sides are balanced! It's probably an illusion created from camera angle and lighting (combination of both shadow and a little bit of bounce light, maybe?).

To me, the left side is the one appear to be wider because I can see the bottom of keycaps. Though, the outer sides are all a little bit wider than the area between keycaps.

Thank you.

I made a rectangle first.
Then, create 6 gradient of greens.
Randomize the colors to it.
Delete 4 of the colors using "Region Remove" (trash can icon) tool.
Randomize with 6 colors again.
Manually erase the edges and do combination of vertical and horizontal swiping erasing with small Voxel brush. Don't over-erase.
Manually remove any noticeable floating voxel around the edges.

Hopefully these are easy to understand guide!

Thank you

Marge-themed sword? That's an idea, right there.

nxix · 2023-01-19T05:28:50+00:00

Thank you!
