Sunday Sketch: Sato Dojo

| Peter Ahola

Sunday Sketch once again, this time it’s a location sketch. So this is a sketch area map of the Sato Dojo, of course the main setting for the Japanese arch. I always try to map out locations, though kinda have a bad habit of not double checking sketches when I start drawing them in the comic.

There was supposed to be a lot more plant life around the dojo, including Cherry Blossoms at the training ring. But I kinda forgot to draw them in there, or maybe I just thought it would be easier not to. I actually looked back on these for the pages that will be uploaded this week and forgot about the location of the lower servant housing.

Also looking back on it, I cant believe I put the servant hot spring so far away from the housing area. This would mean a long walk from the hot spring to the housing, especially if a servant wanted to walk with only a towel. I really got to better use these sketches in the future for new locations.

Sunday Sketch: KId Kalwa

| Peter Ahola

Sharing another Sunday Sketch, which is KID KALWA. Recently, I’ve wanted to return to Webtoons and further expand the Kalwa brand. Kalwa was (and still is) on webtoons for a number of months, but I stopped updating it after a while due to the sheer amount of material and the amount of time it took to edit it. Simply put, the main Kalwa story isn’t really designed for a quick read online comic as it is an on going story. So I’ve decided to make a spin off of Kid Kalwa, which is a non-canon gag comic. In this comic Kalwa has had the phone in her youth and she’s causing trouble for those around her with it.

I had actually done these comics before on webtoons between chapters, but now I’m looking to make it into a full on series seperate from the main series. It’s also worth noting in this image, if you look back on chapter 14’s flash back, this Kalwa looks notably different than Kalwa’s original child model, her hair looks more like her short hair style and less messy. I’ll let everyone know when the real comic comes, it’ll be after this move I’m preparing for.

As usual, click the thumbnail below to check out the latest page and please leave an applause if you enjoy the page, as it really helps the site a lot.

Sunday Sketch: Realistic Kalwa

| Peter Ahola

The first of many Sunday Sketch’s to come. So for the longest time I’ve wanted to draw Kalwa in a more realistic like style. I actually tried several time over the years but just did not like her appearance all that much. During lunch at the day job I’ve been practicing drawing fan characters and practicing other art styles, studying the art style of artist such as J Scott Campbell who, like me, likes to draw pretty girls. So here’s what’s come of the practice so far. Any feedback would be appreciated to help improve the craft.
