Hello everyone here, just tooting my own horn and officially mentioning here for the first time my etsy store:

www.etsy.com/shop/raaxscaveofg…

From here I'll be selling art prints of some of my pictures. Some even from here, including these:

Sailor Moon by Raax-theIceWarrior  Alucard and Seras - Birthday Present by Raax-theIceWarrior   Captain Scarlet by Raax-theIceWarrior  

A ton of Spirou pictures, including this one:
Spirou and Fantasio - Ice Cavern exploration by Raax-theIceWarrior
and these Hetalia designs available as a set of playing cards:

Just a heads up, today I'll be entering a special competition run by Spirou magazine to create a full Spirou comic in 24 hours. According to their rules I won't be able to post up the comic pages other than their website. But once it's finished I will put a link to the whole thing.

If you want some details about the competition you can find them here:  spiroureporter.net/2017/05/02/…

I will also probably be live-tweeting (live-tumbling? I guess?) on my tumblr throughout this thing under this tag: overlordraax.tumblr.com/tagged… so you could follow my progress there if you want.
(Also this link arranges the tags in chronological order: overlordraax.tumblr.com/tagged… )

Also I friend of mine found a list of participants here: 24hdelabdspecialspirouetfantas…

Deary me, I haven't been here in a while. What on Earth happened? How's everybody doing?

Mainly most of my recent artwork has been posted up on my Tumblr, overlordraax.tumblr.com/tagged… these tend to be smaller sketches I wouldn't normally think would be big enough for DA. I should really release them as a sketchdump here.
The prevailing theme is Spirou and Fantasio, which I've recently got into, and Phoenix Wright Dual Destinies.

I've been getting into Tumblr recently, but really I miss DA's commenting and actual social side. Other than that, generally stuff at work has been keeping me busy.

Hey guys. I was just wondering what brushes you all use for your artwork (I mean Digital brushes that can be used on Photoshop).

 Pretty much I’ve only ever used the brushes that are the ones on the default setting of Photoshop, but I was thinking of expanding them and getting more variety and textures (‘cause I’d like to get a bit more variety in my Digital coloured artwork as well). So I was looking to ask whether there any packs or downloads anyone would particularly recommend?

 I think the brushes I do use are pretty flat and would probably be better if I tried to go for more cell-shading style. But I’m not particularly interested in following that style (nor am that good in comparison to a lot of people that actually pay attention to looking at good cell shading).

 Naturally the first thing I did was type ‘Photoshop brushes’ into Google, I found a few I might consider but was wondering if anyone had any particular types they could recommend. Or just generally what sites are good for downloading brushes.


Also I finally gave in and I got Tumblr now. I'm still getting used to the layout and how everything works. I'll probably be posting smaller or mini sketches up there, and posting it up as a big file here or such. I'm OverlordRaax. www.overlordraax.tumblr.com/
I sort of don't like the comment system as much, or just having artists comments and being able to ramble about stuff you've drawn.

Well, this is a late New Years themed post, but wanted to say hello and wish that so far everyone’s year has got off to a good start, and hope everyone has been well (if it hasn’t, then I do hope things perk up)

Christmas as well was very busy, even up to New Years. But just wanted to give an update on what's happening.


I’m extremely sorry for my lack of posting or activity on here. Although my New Years Resolution is to do more artwork again and keeping posting up more stuff. Recently I’ve been more writing things thanks to my degree, though hopefully that means I will be posting more writing-ey stuffs up online.
I just really need to get back into the spirit of drawing stuffs again. And I know just about all my other journal entries have been me saying roughly similar things, but I now have a steady job, and my life can finally settle down a bit so I really start focusing stuff out for the new year and get back into artworks.

So hopefully there should be more stuff on the way, if I get another good weekend off maybe I could do one of those Free Sketch Day things, that was a lot of fun.



I’ve also recently been working some rather big commission projects, which I can’t really post anything up about because it’ll be copyrighted. It’s stuff I’m keeping under wraps for now, but will probably put up more information as more of the project gets underway (and probably once it’s ready to go on Kickstarter)
And even if it does fall through, it should be some nice stuff to put in my portfolio.



I’m also aware pretty much everything I have been posting recently has been Digimon.
I didn’t mean for my gallery to get so dominated by Digimon stuff when I entered that competition. Which I’m sure has annoyed some of my non-Digimon watchers (that means all of you because no body watches me for Digimon). I need to get at least one non-Digimon themed submission up for every entry to the contest. But on the other hand I’m currently one of only twenty remaining contestants left in the competition. So quite excited to see how it’s going to go.



Also, here’s a list of series I got into recently over the last year which I either haven’t posting up fan art for or wanted to do fan art for:

Professor Layton, Judge Dredd, Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, PR: RPM, Dan Dare, Game a’ Thrones, Avatar the Legend of Aang, My Little Pony (I’ve actually drawn pictures of some of my OC’s as ponies. I should really post those up sometime)

Also, these guys are pretty much all I’ve been watching recently:
JonTron, PeanutButterGamer, Caddicarus, the Jimquisition, VideoGamerTV and GameTheory. These guys have pretty much been keeping going over the days. Anyone else got any good youtube channels they’d recommend? Or podcasts, I like having things to listen to whilst I’m drawing, so anything anyone else likes would be awesome.
