So I only have this one. I've been told that Rook as a governor is something they've never considered, which is actually quite fun to know, since I know a lot of people with Crow Rooks considered being Fifth Talon. My Rook isn't a Crow Rook although she's Antivan. The Antivan Crows are fun to look at but not fun to be (not boring, just traumatic by default) but that's my personal very unpopular opinion hahaha. People who have heard of Anya in her Crow alternate universe knows that it's NOT fun for her.<br /><p>I do have an extensive brainstorming list for Rookanis ideas, but I realized a lot of my drawings are things I thought of on a whim that a few of them are actually those I picked off my list. So many things to draw, and so little time.</p><p>I've been wanting to take a break from Rookanis art for a little while now. Taking a break doesn't mean stop, I know I'll make the next one eventually, but right now I'm focusing on art studies. I feel with the amount of time spent in the Rookanis fandom already, I feel I've done a lot already and want to go back to stuff like studying art. My story with my ship isn't done yet, but I feel I don't wanna sacrifice studies and other stuff for a long-standing hyperfixation haha.<br /><br />&nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://i.imgur.com/grAuwfb.png" width="700" height="525" alt="" /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><em>Study on how <a href="https://www.artstation.com/artwork/AZBALm">Mam BA </a>does metal.</em></p><p style="text-align: left;">&nbsp;</p>Right now, I find more satisfaction doing studies. Right now, I've seen a lot of artists approach metal very well and I want to follow what they do by replicating it myself. I've been wanting to study how other painters do stuff for some time. I'm using Artstudio Pro for this. I've got recommended this app by a coworker and their pigment brushes are so good especially if you're looking for a more traditional painting feel. I'm just using one of their default brushes on this one.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=andromedaxyz&ditemid=2023" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
