Holy moly... Thanks everyone who came from the starter kit! I draw from Dragon Quest, Pokémon, and my own stuff mostly. Welcome around! Uh... Have a chaos potato I guess? #art #traditionalart

While I was away, I spent time at art museums; now I both need and want to level up my art skill. For now whipped up a quick study of a tree from nothing, but should have artbooks to copy coming soon! Also, that pair of brushes I thrifted Wednesday are becoming my faves? OMG? #art #traditionalart

Okay cause I'm leaving tomorrow and I don't know when to quit I redid this actually official thing from DQ Rivals Now I need to cover the TGS stuff for Monsters 4 and then sleep Back to other drawing topics when I come back! #art #fanart #traditionalart #DragonQuestXI

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

Well, maybe that's the kind of cute thing I needed to get out of my system. I was gonna have a whole mushy paragraph talking about continuing to grow and learn, but can I talk for a second about how FUCKING hard Erik is to draw!? #art #traditionalart #fanart #DragonQuestXI

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Well, I tested the watercolor palette, and I like it! I did some #DragonQuestXI art as my benchmark. I'm doing a lot of that lately because I never quite like how it turns out. But I can't keep agonizing over it. Maybe another one will scratch that itch. #art #traditionalart #fanart

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Since I've gone and got my masters and all, rewarded myself with my dream palette instead of lugging several. Mostly Gansai Tanbi, but the skin tones are Sennelier, Royal talens, + a home mix. Thinking of engraving the sides, & I should add a mixing pad too cuz I still have height! #art #artsupplies

This redesign I did today, goddess of heat Suleleya (used to be Solilia but felt too on the nose). She can control temperature in both direction, she just has more of a... sunny disposition. #art #traditionalart #OC

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Continuing in my redesign series! I did this one a little bit ago but never posted it. This character went through... a lot, originally with a Japanese theme but then I rewrote her backstory as coming from another dimension. I had been wanting to give her alien features at some point, now it's done!

Received @konoha-kairi.bsky.social @vidramon.bsky.social and @hirunoshi.bsky.social 's DQ cookbook today! It looks lovely and I can't wait to dig in <3

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

Today was eventful. 8 year anniversary of #DragonQuestXI 's Western release, wish I had time to draw art of it but... It was also the anniversary of my uni entrance, AND my final exam which went well so i guess I have a master's degree now, or within a few weeks when juries reconvene

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

I drew Jade from #DragonQuestXI 's beta design (what Horii had sketched before asking Toriyama, as was revealed a few years back). Well, I started a while ago, but as part of my ongoing quest to empty my WIP drawer, I decided I'd just complete it quick. #art #fanart #traditionalart

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Welp, I bought a sketchbook and started with said redesign project ^^' I'm not entirely done with my finals but I really need to be doing something else. Spent wayyy to much time on uni work lately and I'm not even good at it >< #art #traditionalart #OC #redesign

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 16/08/2026

One less in the WIP drawer! This is Gwen from my oldest big project, the World Between Worlds. She's the clone/daughter of the goddess of fire & that makes her a target for demons to harvest her power, so her only similar "sister", protag Éclair, takes her under her wing. #art #traditionalart #OC

I decided to take another stab at drawing Fen's great-great-grandmother, too: Obo Pavo Pamavel (social name Obora). She was a respected community figure, and renowned in cultural spaces. Her son and his wife were the ones to move across the continent when recession hit. #art #traditionalart #OC

Fen Huo in a party dress A magician who was raised by her grandfather with the tales and traditions of her immigrant ancestors. Usually dresses more practical but I wanted to do outfit design today. Attached to a project in limbo—I struggle with the plot a lot. #art #traditionalart #OC

Well... #artfight is drawing (haha) to a close. Here's my last 3, tara for SJArtFight, Ekul for KingNeptune87, and Ellen for I_loveCats. Looking like 16 attacks, 5 defenses will be my final score, thank you to everyone! Looking forward to next year! #art #artchallenge #traditionalart

Well, Nezisntreal revenged me with a very cute winter themed piece (god I wish, we're in a heatwave rn) with a really interesting thumbnail :D

I attacked @offlinerabbit.bsky.social 's Penny and I was revenged this smug lil' Rin! I absolutely love it. Looking back, I drew him with several fits, but it looks this one connects more with people. It's the first one I designed funnily enough #art #artfight #artchallenge

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

Latest #artfight attacks! Hoodie boy from Nezisntreal, Adaline from luvvhana, Mizumi from Bonbon__x and Mary Joa from art-INAtor. #art #traditionalart #artchallenge

Back from vacation with a want to do a shitton of pixel art. I really want to try and have unique overworld sprites for every NPC, be it only through minor variation using the official ones as a base. Maybe that's just delusional but I'll try! #art #pixelart #Pokémon #fangame

Various custom overworld sprites in different poses in the Pokémon BW style.

I'm gonna be away for a few days so I'll have a bit of a break, here are the last two #artfight attacks i made for people! For Luwxe and Krugerlene respectively. #art #traditionalart #artchallenge

#artfight SheepOnIce friendly-fire'd me but jokes on them, I had my revenge! #art #traditionalart #artchallenge

SheepOnIce's very lovely pencil interpretation of Ìmirin.

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

I wanted to keep my #artfight stuff to a notebook but I accidentally grabbed one I had already started a project in on the other side so I cut loose the two attacks I did. But I think I'll stick with the A5 format to store them together, so I guess I'm graduating to even better paper now!

000

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 03/07/2026

First two attacks in #artfight, @roundsovereign.bsky.social 's Clephealy and LuckyDoesArt's Snaggy! Why am I drawing animal cartoon? I never do it, I usually stick to humans :D #art #traditionalart #artchallenge

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

New watercolor paper, new random piece of fanart! ...Jury's still out on either. 🫤 #art #traditionalart #DragonQuest #DragonQuestIII #DragonQuestXI #fanart

Can I get in? I'm Tigali, I'm a trad artist who also dabbles in pixel art. I'm also a writer and translator, and I'm trying to make a name for myself and get work, ideally on videogame-related projects!

Kind of wondering what other character I can put for #Artfight. From the same story... eh. From another one? I really wanted to go full original stuff, so that takes one of my faves out of the equation, too Also maybe just one guy is enough? Or would it be better to add a lady and an enby Thoughts?

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 19/06/2026

So, since challenges were still being added and I wanted a project that's complete for once, I decided to stop at the 20 mark and bind everything into a book; maybe there will be a volume 2 one day. #art #traditionalart #artchallenge #bookbinding

Tigali @tigali-ph.bsky.social · 17/06/2026

Sooo, decided to take the plunge and make an #artfight account. Getting out there in the world and doing stuff, y'know. I added Ìmirin as my first chara, made a new reference sheet. I've been told I should add more to give people a choice, but idk I'm team Mystery btw artfight.net/~Tigali/char...

Don't 'member who she is either but she's living her best life! (one of those nights where i forget i hate oil pastels, try new ones out, and then struggle to make something out of the roddy mess and get to experiment a bit) #art #traditionalart

Drawing of a woman with long black hair, purple tube top, green skirt, black boots, holding a yellow butterfly, on a green background, messy oil pastels.

Same character but drawn in pencil on printer paper by a very bored child years ago.

#fangame I have a constraint of limiting Surf to big Pokémon only since two protags needs to be carried, so I think I can make custom sprites for every candidate. The splashes are still rough (might double the framecount on em), but I think I like how it's coming out. #pixelart
