Next up! @Kathleen_LRR gives us a goth vocal lesson.

And here's my first piece of Desert Bus calligraphy!

This year, the overall Desert Bus opening was heavily anime-inspired.

This was @Graham_LRR's explanation of all the work and meetings it took to develop that idea.

Brause nibs, Winsor and Newton inks. Foundational and Italic scripts.

Before I get to the non-VST art... I just realised I have another @DB_VST! Whoops. That's where all the time went.

I made a logo for the VST this year. We have merch! I'm waiting for my shirt now!

Medium is Japanese brush and Chinese calligraphy ink, watercolours.

I'm not very good at painting ensō ... but I tried!

Another @DB_VST bit, one we haven't found the opportunity to use yet (hey Night Watch crew, can y'all get an actual burger for Crack-a-Mac? =V ).

I made this to hopefully use for one of the Crack-a-Mac segments on Night Watch. Lineart is Japanese brush, single stroke (except the sesame seeds), colours are watercolour paints.

I'm a volunteer for the @DB_VST this year, so I also have some VST artwork to share!

I felt that @sharkfists's fiddling could use a trad vibe.

This frame features a stylised violin/baroque bow, a violin f-hole, and a Celtic knotwork border, given Max's music of preference. Japanese brush/ink and watercolour paints.

All of Max's #DB2023 performances will be using this frame.

Time for the Desert Bus Art/Calligraphy thread! And only halfway through Desert Bus!

I finished an hour late for the Alpha Flight art challenge, but this was still the FASTEST I've ever watercoloured.

From Final Fantasy X, @JacobBurgess as Auron and Erika Cole as Lulu (with a... less revealing neckline).

If you're wondering where all the belts are, they're on the skirt.
