'Gingerbread Playhouse'

A marker and watercolor crayon drawing of Hamtaro and Bijou playing around a cardboard gingerbread playhouse.

This was drawn in Arteza brush pens and Crayola Signature watercolor crayons, and photographed through an EOS Rebel T3i with a Canon FD 35-70mm f4 zoom lens mounted to it.

'Festive Art Time with Pichu and Raichu'

A marker and watercolor crayon drawing of Pichu and Raichu making a winter-themed collage collab featuring themselves engaged in a snowball fight in their playroom. They're surrounded by assorted colors of construction paper that have all had shapes cut out of them, and there's also two pairs of scissors and a couple bottles of glue next to them, both of them having been spilled out on the floor.

I also gave my new watercolor crayons a try for this one, in addition to using my Crayola markers.

This was drawn with a combination of Crayola markers and watercolor crayons, and it was photographed with an EOS Rebel T3i with a Vivitar Series 1 19.35mm f3.5-4.5 FD-mount lens mounted to it.

This was mostly drawn in Crayola markers blended with a wet brush, with some parts also being drawn in Colpart alcohol markers, with the Colparts also being used as a shader.
