League Of Legends: Poppy the Yordle without a hammer in this case...

So I have been using League of Legends as inspiration again! Ha ha ha. I decided to draw the champion I use the most which is the super cute but deadly Poppy. Yes, I own up I do dabble in playing LOL, whether I am good at it could be disputed by many. (I'm sorry guys)

So when I first drew Poppy, it was not great. I would say that I needed practice for the drawing. And to be honest I gave up trying to draw her, purely because I couldn't get the colours or shading right.

Here is the first picture....


So I have posted this because you can see an improvement when you see the next drawing I did of Poppy. 
This is the next drawing which I am pretty chuffed with.... 


Base pencil outline and adding colour with shading. 
More colouring and adding depth/ shade. 

Finishing touches like outing certain areas to make more prominent


Finished result...

Alice in Wonderland Inspired Playing Card

So after I did the previous design. I got asked to design a Alice in Wonderland playing card for a display. Now if anyone knows me well I love Alice in Wonderland. Too a point that I have a miniature book from Oxford. 

I got an email with an idea of what the card could look like. And a light bulb just went off and I knew exactly what it would look like. It took about two days to complete because I was overly enthusiastic to start designing it. 

I used a base outline and added my twist to it. Adding more interest and using bright colours. 

So here is the base outline....

League Of Legends: Twisted Fate: Inspired Tattoo Design

So a good friend of mine asked me if I could design him a tattoo, at first I was slightly nervous because I hadn't drawn something in a long time and the design was quite complex with shading and placement. 
He does gaming on a game called League of Legends which is a very popular online gaming platform. 
The character he liked and what he wanted the design based on was Twisted Fate's Cards with his quote. 
So we both spoke about what was wanted and how it would be laid out. I did 3 sketches, and finally finished about a week and a half later. This was really fun to design because it was way out of my usual drawing style. This was all hand drawn from start to finish by me. 
I love the end result. 

Here is the few drafts to plan how it will look....


So this is the first sketch for layout purposes. I started to draw this in the middle of February this year. 

This is the second draft with colour placement and shading placement. This was a couple of days after. 

This is the Final design....


Close up of cards, with shading, this is starting off. 

Cards finished and placement of lettering to be completed. 

Finished design. Night-time shot. As poor lighting. 


Final Scanned design. Finished on the 07/03/16 

I am very pleased with how it came out. Just want to thank my friend for believing that I could design this. 

Hope you liked this...
