Spleenish Keen Fan Art
Posted: Sat Jun 23, 2018 9:58
Since it's been a long time since I have been particularly active on PCKF (though I do lurk regularly and spend a lot of time on Discord and still chip away at my mods gradually), I figure I might post about some things I've been doing instead. In particular I've been working on a lot of visual art (digital and traditional). Every now and then I create some stuff based on Keen just for fun, so I'll put those here when that does happen. More general work will go into an associated Miscellaneous post.
Late last year I acquired a Samsung Slate tablet PC for drawing digital art using Krita. These are some of the first few things I sketched after figuring out the basics.
I don't normally draw people as it usually comes out a huge mess if I attempt it on paper. Being able to erase as much as I want and layer different parts in software makes it much easier to attempt something new. I already had a graphics tablet, but this always felt too detached from the image for this sort of thing.

Keen on a Generic Blob Planet
Recently I haven't done a lot of Krita drawing, instead designing a lot more vector graphics using Gravit Designer (having migrated from Inkscape around the same time I acquired the tablet).
I whipped this up using the building and people style I've been developing (I'll post more of these in the miscellaneous thread).
These ones aren't directly related to Keen, but could easily be used as concept art for a mod or fangame, so I'll include them here:
Generic space platforms
Generic mystical futurism concept (OrbKeenishness)
Floating planetoid with Keen-influenced buildings
