Witch things, continued
🕑 Added 2024-11-20 00:55:34 +0000 UTCSorry about hte radio silence everyone! I took a week to visit NYC for the first time and I just got back yesterday :) It wasn't exactly an unplanned trip, but what was unplanne was how little time I ended up having to post anything while I was away.
As a result, I am behind where I hoped to be, but I have a lot of nearly complete things I'm going to be polishing up and sharing because the trip was full of inspiration and I'm eager to get back to work.
I am really enjoying this green/orange color palette. It's really punchy and also flexible. It's a bit like the CYOA palette in a sense but more limited. While I was traveling I got a bunch of art books that are really inspiring, I'll definitely be sharing more about those!
Thank you for being patient with the Libby & Holly Ch3 finals, my progress has been a little slow on that front but that's my biggest priority for the rest of the month, to get that totally wrapped up.
Keep an eye out for more updates this week! ๐

Ooh sure, I'll either share some of my brushes in a post or add it to the Dropbox downloads later this month! Please remind me if I forget tho my mind is a sieve lately
Winton Kidd
โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ thank you Kurbeeeeee! It's kinda crazy how flexible these colors are, I really didn't know what I was gonna do with that green at first but it's perfect for tentacle and foliage ๐
Winton Kidd
๐ glad you're enjoying the witches! I haven't gotten around to any trans masc characters yet except for some concept sketches. Men are pretty under represented in my work right now tbh ๐ซ I'm gonna keep working on it tho!
Winton Kidd
Awww thank you Taylor! ๐ฅน
Winton Kidd
Yes! I've got too many projects ideas but I did briefly think about tying witches in with the dryads in a purely fantasy story, but I ended up just slipping it into Libby and Holly instead ๐ I'll definitely keep exploring witches in the long form stuff to because they're really fun

Tell Kitt thank you from me ๐ And yess I love both Kinokuniya and the Strand! I hope you checked out the erotica shelf โ I got my book of Thomas Rowlandson's prints there :)
ValeRipley
I really dig the palette! Glad you enjoyed your trip, I also went to NYC 5 years ago. BTW, would you be open to sharing that fountain pen brush I see all the time in your drawings and in these ones too? It seems quite fitting for playing around with pressure and line weights and such.
Kurbee
Absolutely obsessed with the color palette here and with park witch. That back shot in the first image is just absolutely delicious.

Eeeeee more transfem folx ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ Been really really loving all the tentacle witch stuffs >:3 and yeh, the green and orange pops so much, v cozy feeling color combo Also am wondering if you've done transmasc characters before too :3
Taylor
I love the composition of the second one so much! Thereโs something so cute and whimsical about it๐ค
Winton Kidd
Probably everything I ate in Chinatown and Nolita ๐ I don't know if it's considered a tourist trap or not but I had soup dumplings for the first time at Joe's Shanghai and that was a delight.
Valdis McGrath
Have you thought about creating a series with the wondrous witch things you make?
Winton Kidd
I did have a magical time! The weather was really nice too, great for walking around. I didn't realize how much brain power learning how to navigate the city would require! I was so tired the first couple days ๐
Chantal Strong-DePauw
Lovely!! What was your favorite snack/meal while in NYC?
Manda Lynn
Eeek I just went to NYC for the first time too! I hope it was magical for you!
Winton Kidd
โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ thank you Xev!!
Winton Kidd
โค๏ธ I am inclined to agree hehe. I feel like doing witch drawings is just drawing sexual power fantasies- like what would you do if you had super powers and were also really horny kinda thoughts, it's endless possibilities ๐
Winton Kidd
Honestly the Met is what bowled me over the most. So many pieces of art i've only ever seen in textbooks-- it's overwhelming how huge that place is ๐ซ
Winton Kidd
You are one of the special ones that knows what that's called ๐ my studio helper Kitt was like "you gotta draw some hennins" -- I love a good hat. Kinokuniya, Strand Bookstore were my favorites, just because I bought the most stuff there lol Forbidden Planet comics was cool, and I would have loved to make it to more comic shops (heard good things about St. Mark's in Brooklyn) but I really didn't leave Manhattan. A friend told me about Sweet Pickle Bookstore in Chinatown which sounded really cute and also delicious, but I wasn't and to make it there!
Zack
Well jeez dude O_o I live just a few hours from NYC now and even have some family there, but I've never been... but if this is the kind of inspiration you get there, I may just have to make time!
cloudie s
I love theseeee, especially the hennin witch hat!! Glad you had a good time in NYC โ where was your favorite place that you went? (Also, you mentioned bookstores above, I'm so curious about where you went as an NYC native who always needs more books lmao)
Fable
Both so gorgeous!! First witch knows how to live ~well~โก
Xev
๐ oh my... Look how pretty they are!! The left witch's dick & balls are so juicy... That vein! The way the vines intertwine between and around!! Right witch looks so plump and lovely... They're both so beautiful. Love it as always, Winton

Well, I was on the couch, it would be safe ๐
Winton Kidd
Thank you Erika!!๐๐๐
Winton Kidd
Quite a city you got there ๐ I really did have a lovely time, you have excellent book stores and I'm so glad they all ship stuff because my luggage would have been insanely heavy ๐
Winton Kidd
Hahaha I'm glad you didn't, nobody needs the expense of a new phone๐ซ ๐
Winton Kidd
Thank you Wuffffff!! ๐
Pious Erika
Darling!
Quinn
i hope you enjoyed NYC! (that's where i'm at) i can't imagine trying to post work while on a trip like that so the radio silence def makes sense!
Saga Sรถderback
