Knight Laundry

Finally back and can't wait to draw and share more stuff again:)

 I'm finally getting to work on a pile of ideas I've had for a while that don't quite fit into sets - here is the first, a bit of contrast between the environment and char...

WIPs and an Update!

How are you guys doing? It's been a really hectic month over here not made much easier by some unexpected doctor visits! As promised, I'm here to drop off some WIP's I've been working on whenever I could squeeze in some time. As always, I'm delibe...

August Update!

Hey everyone, how are you doing? Right now, I'm working on a few new pieces that I hope to take in a slightly different direction and out from the usual comfort zone! It's been fun doing the planning and drafting, and hopefully I will have some WI...

GUWEIZ Patreon Series EP38 (Process Steps)

The process steps are up! As promised, I recorded these right after finishing up the pieces so it could come out while the set itself is still fresh :)

This set took a LOT longer than what I expected at first, and took quite a bit out of me ...

Cinema

Thank you all for your patience - This month's set is here, with an abundance of chili sauce! One of the things I wanted to do was to explore the "cinema/theater" type location, and it proved surprisingly difficult to get locked down.

If yo...

WIP - Sketches Update!

Apologies for the early month quiet as always, I've been pretty hard at work on the next set!

For today, I'm dropping off some exploration sketches I've done! I'm definitely spoiling the theme a little here, but as with before these are th...

GUWEIZ Patreon Series EP37.2 (Process Steps)

For those who've been around for a while, you may remember the initial rejected version of this piece that I showed! After quite a bit of planning and redrawing, it was finally done - and served as a tutorial piece for 3dtotal's latest instruction...

GUWEIZ Patreon Series EP37.1 (Process Steps)

The process steps for this month's set is up!

This was quite a mixed bag of difficulties for me, with the first piece being the most daunting, and the ones after being surprisingly smooth sailing (maybe I missed something!). Either way, I h...

Highway

I had a blast working with this set! More so than just capturing lighting, I wanted to create the full atmosphere of such a scene as closely as I could. It definitely gave me quite a push towards rethinking how certain aspects of light should be u...

Night Warrior

Surprise artwork!

Gothic style armor, despite it's need for details and motifs, somehow feels a lot more intuitive (and thus fun) to draw! It's also very rewarding watching the details come together to help sell the piece and composition as ...

GUWEIZ Patreon Series EP36 (Process Steps)

The process steps are up (quickly this time!) as promised.

I go through each of the pieces as well as the rejected drafts and my thinking behind them, talking about some new lessons I've learnt tackling this latest set. I also took the chanc...

Journey

It's done! It has been a while since I really did a non-contemporary themed set so there were many things to learn on the go and put into practice! If you've seen my previous post here the experiments (and failures) speak for themselves :)

I...

Mid-month Progress Update!

I've finally thought of a decent compromise to posting WIPs! Usually I don't quite like doing that as I feel it spoils the reveal of the set too much - but given my posting "model" and frequency, I do feel like checking in with you guys a bit more...

GUWEIZ Patreon Series EP35.3 (Process Steps)

The process walkthrough is up! I share my thoughts on how I approached the set and what kind of unique challenges were presented drawing these "full-body descriptive" pieces. I also share some tips on using reference that you might find helpful! 2024-04-30 09:25:38 +0000 UTC View Post

Snack Break

The final set of the month as I promised! It took a surprisingly long amount of time going from "almost done" to actually done - but I'm glad to be able to deliver it to you guys even though it's the 30th :) I had quite a but of fun working on thi...

GUWEIZ Patreon Series EP35.2 (Process Steps)

This poster style piece was really quite a challenge to attempt! In the video I reflect on what went wrong (and right!) during the process and some pretty vital learning points.
Spoiler: The sketch stage accuracy can be really deceptively impo...

GUWEIZ Patreon Series EP35.1 (Process Steps)

Thank you so much for your patience! The process steps for this month's pieces are coming up :) In this video, I talk about what I've learnt working in this novel (for myself) visual style, and some interesting findings and solutions I came up wit...

"Movie Poster"

A very experimental presentation style! I was inspired by some of the really cool illustrations from Gundam Hathaway by Pablo Uchida, and so I wanted to try something along the same veins.

However, it was much, much h...

Getting Ready 🌟

Following up from the last 2 illustrations, I was pretty inspired to work on the character side of things a bit more! It's definitely a departure from the usual more moody and cinematic tone, but a good way for me to gain a bit more perspective. <...

Special Event: Reviewing your OC's!

I've had a lot of fun reviewing all your submissions for the event! Thank you so much to everyone who participated, it's very motivating to see you guys being so proud of your hard work! It's not easy to offer something so personal to be seen by m...

GUWEIZ Patreon Series EP 34 (Process Walkthrough)

The process video for these pieces are up! It's quite a bit different than the usual cinematic sets - so I hope it will be extra helpful (and interesting) for those who are looking to draw a similar character sheet style of illustration. I've lear...

Special Event for Patrons!

UPDATE!: Thank you all for your wonderful submissions, I can't wait to go through them! The submissions will close in 3 more days on 25th March-...
