Art

Here, you can read my thoughts on my drawings that I've posted on my SNS accounts.

If you see that my accounts have posted, this means this page will have been updated as well. You can use that as a notification of sorts if you want to read my thoughts.

"Original Administrator"

This is the simplest admin, the fact that they released Eri's full-body art helps, too.

And this is also the piece of art I'm most proud of so far! This is the first time where everything is referenced from Priconne. The inspiration for this piece comes from that scene where KSKN encounters Eris inside her dream from the I Wish event. Also referenced Mimi's art from World Flipper for color picking the greens. Still technically Priconne.

Not much to say here, honestly. Pretty happy with this piece!

"Administrator of Lynx"

Aira's casual outfit is pretty easy to draw, despite the lack of reference image. I thought she'd have a weak silhoutte, so I decided to use her ponytail and tail to prop up the overall composition, but I think it would've done just fine without them.

Despite the simplicity...I had some trouble drawing the pose. At first, it was like this, but the legs being so far apart made the silhoutte way too wide. I also didn't like how the beer's and meat's distance to Aira's head are difference. In the end, I redrew the pose from scratch, and thank goodness I got it right.

I also had to redraw her face several times. The one you're seeing is the second iteration. There are more iterations, but when I was comparing all of them, this one was the best.

Pose is loosely referenced from Emma's art from Dragalia Lost. Background is referenced from multiple things, first, the Romancing Sarasaria event logo. Second, Haruhi's art from World Flipper, although only very loosely. I also had an image of the real life Taj Mahal pinned as reference just so I could have more idea when drawing.

"Administrator of Cor Caroli"

This is my submission for the Priconne Fes 2026 art contest! I didn't have to enlarge my canvas size for this one. Shinatsu's on the simpler side when talking about design. I decided to rep her because I wanted to go with someone I like but doesn't have that many art just yet, so I went with Shinatsu beecause she's literally me.

Most of the difficulty comes from the lack of reference image because they haven't released the fullbody shot of her in her casual outfit. They did release it on X when promoting the And I Will event, but it's obsructed by Rei.

The lack of chibi sprite also makes color picking a bit difficult. After using the color mask tool to do the flats, everything seemed off. I had to spare an hour or two doing some color correction. This was still a faster process than coloring everything manually, so it was kinda whatever.

I adlibbed the entirety of the lower half of her body. No chibi sprite, and her portrait has her leaning to one side, so I'm not sure if that's how the skirt works.

I wasn't sure of the background and was contemplating on replacing it with a simpler one, but I kept going and I think it turned out okay,

"Wielder of Pride"

I guess this is just the design philosophy for the Princesses? They're practically half-naked, but the details come from everywhere that isn't their outfit. In Lyrael's case, her wings, her braids, her royal equipment and finally, the "tiara". Well, I guess this doesn't really apply to Violet...she's being too modest, honestly!

At first, I wanted to use Lyrael's normal form, but I couldn't figure out how to make her tiny wings visible in the silhoutte. Her wings become real wings when in prideful mode, making it way easier to interpret. Her braids becoming zig-zagged also makes it easier to draw. Also, did you notice that some parts of her outfit turn orange, including her panties? I thought that was interesting. Here is an old sketch where she's in her normal form, notice the rounded braids.

The entire piece is inspired by Gala Alex's art from Dragalia Lost. Well, it's less about Alex herself, I'm mainly talking about the background. Notice the moon? Looking at that gave me the idea to make Lyrael's Superbia the moon in the picture, which is why Lyrael is leaning against it here. From there, I had got the idea to make her look sleepy, and then, I thought her being annoyed at being woken up and thus activating Superbia would be a good fit. 

While isn't a direct inspiration, the pose is loosely based on Christmas Creditta's victory pose, where she leans on her chair and raises a glass of wine. When I was drawing Lyrael's pose, I thought to myself, "I've seen this somewhere before", and then I remembered nad used it as reference.

See those castle pillar roofs? Those are taken Gala Cleo's art from Dragalia Lost. I thought it was the easiest way to communicate that Lyrael lives in a castle."

"Wielder of Envy"

I thought Croce would be complicated, but then Nephi shows herself...

Another deceptively simple character. Nephi is practically naked with her chest and her legs displayed for all to see, but she still doesn't seem naked because all the details she has. Her hair ornament, the big skirt (?) she wears, and her snake, too. All of them combine to become a very strong silhoutte.

There's so much details that I had to increase the size of my canvas just to contain all of them. This is also the first time I took a "shortcut". See the volcano behind her? I only rendered the parts that the audience would see. The rest are  unfinished. I know there's the concept of "cheating the camera" which 3D animators usually use and I, ideally should use it too to save time, but I usually go the extra mile since I need the practice anyway.

Her pose is simply her victory pose from the game itself, she also does the same pose in her homescreen art. Just boot up the game, you did roll for her, right?  Background reference is Vagner's awakened art from World Flipper.

"Chevalier of Pride"

Well, this was a challenge to finish but it was a challenge I managed to overcome nontheless. Mecha characters are hard to draw for obvious reasons I think, plenty artists outright reject mecha character comissions. I also considered drawing Aerial Croce instead because of her smaller hands, but I decided against it for the challenge. 

I went through several rough pose drafts. Here they are: one, two, three. Didn't do number one because I thought it would be too hard, didn't do number two because it's too close to her default pose, didn't do number three because her arms would cover her chest after adding the arm cannon details. The current pose was picked because her arms and boots are in full view, those two parts are what I considered the strongest in Croce's silhoutte, so the priority was to show them off. It's also picked for ease, since after drawing one arm/boot, I could simply copy paste them. Lazy, but give me a break, I was drawing a mecha character.

"Chevalier of Sloth"

Grace's design is deceptive. At first, I thought it would be a breeze to draw her considering she's wearing a skintight bodysuit. I thought my drawing was missing something in the middle of drawing it, that's when I realize she's also wearing a cape and a sarong(?). That's when I understood those two are there to help her silhoutte stand out since she's otherwise just wearing a skintight suit with some armor. Still overall somewhat simple.

Her pose was suppose to reference Grimnir's art from Dragalia Lost, but I realized very soon after the sketch was done that it looked too stiff. So, I bent her there and there and now she poses the way she is now. The direction accidentally went from "cool" to "sexy" this way, but sexy also fits Grace considering her somewhat mischievious nature, so I'm okay with it, I guess. Background is referenced from the generic 3* dark adventurer arts from Dragalia Lost, here is Althemia, one of them.

"Chevalier of Envy"

Yes, this is done before Grace. I didn't want to post two girls of the same element in a row so I delayed her release.

Anemone's design is pretty simple. Not many details, and the only detail I forgot was the vines going through and around her hair. Pretty much got it in one go otherwise.

Here is the rough draft. Compared to the final product, I moved her arms around for a bit as to show her tiny cleavage more clearly. Very important part of her design.

Pose refence is Jurota from Dragalia Lost. Background reference is Maribelle from the same game.

"Little Guidance"

It's only natural that I'd be drawing Kokkoro's new form.

Her design, while at first might look super busy, actually has a lot of symmetry. This is referenced in an interview that this was intentional, it's supposed to symbolize that Kokkoro now has her thoughts just a little bit more sorted out.

I started drawing this a few days after it was revealed, but took a while to finish it. This is because there were a lot of detail missings in the reference image I was using. You can compare it to her own in-engine portrait. One notable difference are the patterns on her dress and the long strings around her hips. When the unit itself released, I decided to correct those details and with her chibi sprite also being out, I decided to re-do the recoloring because I previously color-picked from the cutscene, which made things darker than it should be.

Here is the inital sketch. As you can see, I initally wanted to have a tree behind her, but I replaced it with her halo. This was a late addition because it was only revealed that she had a halo after the unit released. Why not both? It mad the entire picture look a bit busy.

The background is just the generic background of 3* units in Dragalia Lost. It's not exclusice to Johanna.

"Rindvlum"

I finished drawing this on a very awkward time considering what was happening to Wurm at the time.

"Wielder of Sloth"

This piece was meant to be a shitpost at first. My inital idea was a picture of Violet riding Ho-chan for the CHICKEN JOCKEY joke. I abandoned the sketch because I couldn't figure out how Violet's dress would bend around her legs. I may or may not revisit this in the future.
