Somehow, I spent more or less all day drawing, which is a rare mood for me these days, but not an unhappy one by any means. I'm mostly just glad my hand is up to the task again.

My sister once accused me of a propensity for drawing "evil pokemon". A strange accusation with no basis in reality at all. I've asked edgelord caterpie about the matter, and am pleased to inform you that she agrees completely. No evil pokemon here.
Obviously, it's still a WIP, one I'm still actively working on, so it has yet to be put up on my sketchbook proper. It's also a good example of messing with my own workflow once again. I'm drawing all of this on only one layer - a rarity for me, while making heavy use of a water color brush set paired with a charcoal blender to ease up the edges of the lines.
I'm also adding the linework after I've blocked out most of the color, using my rough sketch as a basis for where it should go, another change from how I normally do it. I think I'm still not very settled or experienced when it comes to the best way to do digital art.
for those wondering, those arrows are there to help me remember where the light is supposed to be shining. When I formally decide I'm bored of drawing something, the first thing I usually do is erase those guys from the screen.
I also found the button that will cause Procreate brushes to make effects such as multiply/lighten/overlay ect. without having to change the layer itself. They're down in the settings menu you get when you click on a brush. I'm wondering if I want to try out one of my paper texture brushes on this guy, or maybe save it for something else.
