Senior Field Enginseer Csépán Uventa. Newly promoted to their position in the Canticorum 9th Ironsides Regiment "Grayline" following a decade's service. Notably, the typical working robes of the enginseer have been supplemented with protective garments from the host regiment.
Personal work, ended up finding out how quickly I could actually render this out to an acceptable level of finish.

It had been brought to my attention recently that I hadn't been keeping up with my publicly available portraiture. To make up for this, a quick portrait of someone's MechWarrior character. More to come shortly as I attempt to rebuild this part of my portfolio.

Started to seriously get into brush pen and inkwork the day before Kim Jung Gi’s passing.
Based on a photo of ROK SEALs from @captain-price-unofficially, done primarily with a Pilot Shunpitsu. You can get a lot of rendering done with a brisk smudging with the finger.

Cover for “Wings of the Warriors” by Ultraviolet Combat. Fun to work on, certainly a great distraction given what was going on at the time.

A quick sketch of Gideon, partially to get some fencing pose brainworms out of my system, partially from reading and thinking over the ergonomics of her knuckles, and partially because I’m itching to get my hands on a copy of Nona the Ninth.

Senior Techmarine Usmanenko of the Grim Sons. His ceramite demonstrates the chapter’s particular practice of ritual embellishments to track the achievements of the armor separately from the wearer.
Personal work, I wanted to get a basic grasp of a more stylized approach to shading.

Wanted to get an idea out of my head in relation to Half Life going off what happened in the latest installment.
Suppose time in service is relative, what might happen with Alyx?

Part 2/2
A little unorthodox in places, and very incomplete compared to a proper academic study of the stuff, but I think I came away knowing a fair bit more than I did before this.

Part 1/2
I also did a bit of studying-up on anatomy when I didn’t have many places to go.

A bit of a throwback, digging through my old vacation photos and dated accordingly.

It’d be a while before I get out and about again. Upside, lots of plein air time by just sitting outside, and I got a chance to go through some old vacation photos to really get me going on complex topics.
As an aside, the Pentalic Aqua can be a little hit and miss on sizing, but they’re an overall great value. You can do the James Gurney thing with gouache if you aren’t able to wipe back colors, but it’s generally not necessary. Until 2020, there wasn’t much in the way of options in the field for 140lb/300gsm books anyway, but the new books from Speedball/Hand Book are promising.

Finally got the time and space together to start scanning my way through my Pentalic Aqua books. First page of the first book, a look over at NYC from New Jersey. I did this one with Sennelier paints, their pans are a little odd to work with, requiring a bit of careful pre-wetting of both the pans and the paper before I could get things controllable instead of a mix of masstone and thin washes like you can see in portions of this.
Also as you can tell from the date, this is going to take a turn for the masked pretty shortly.

Some more Gil and Inaya, trying to get a handle on some more complex topics. The usual morning after. More in the pipeline.

Well, this only took a few years to execute. Another member of the REDACT team.
Big shout-out to @iofthebunny for her help in figuring out what the hell font I had originally used for Matthers’s sheet. (It was Bombardier)
