Gonna go to Turku for a week. No challenge pictures during that time, but I’ll still be working with my comic and generally draw a lot.
Heyah!
I am Ruija-Maria Kariniemi, but you may call me Ruija. This is my artblog, where I mostly post original arts, thoughts, music I like and some fanarts.
I'm just finishing high school in Northern Finland and I am applying to study 3D graphics in Helsinki next.
My passion are stories in visual and multimedia formats. Both enjoying and making them. I love drawing comics and I wish to learn video game making.
You can find me in these places too:

I’m back from my trip with a new picture~ Day 14, Style: Promarkers with colored stabilo lineart supporting the shading.
Hehe, this is a three-way crossover with Leppu’s Prague Race, Muura’s En tu thrie and my Adventures of Tuliaana :D This is Miko’s lucky day. Forgive me for my shitty editing and cropping.

Day 13, style: Oil pastels.
Uuuugh I’m just gonna post these challenge pictures when I get something done. The draw something everyday or even every second day is proving to be too challenging for me lol.
Anyway, this a card I made for Mother’s day. My mom likes foxes.
I’ve been drawing I really am! I was supposed to do a full level design concept art for Illness for today, but this took surprisingly long. The room I was going to draw is going to have decorations like this on the walls.
But anyway, since I have nothing else but this at the moment, I decided to post it as today’s challenge picture. Because why not?
Day 13, style: graphic design.
I’ve drawn so much tmnt fanart lately that I decided to do some Digimon art for a change. Also; Digimon fanart that isn’t about Koushiro or Taichi, haha.
Day 12, style: I kinda aimed for a style that’s very usual in anime art. I also used more animeish drawing style.
Won’t be drawing my challenge for few days because I’m moving next saturday and I have packing and other things I need to get done.
Day 11, style: Pencil tool/pixels.
I love games which offer alternative costumes for the playable characters. If Illness had this kind of feature,(which it probably won’t since it’ll be 2D) this would be Sortunut’s alternative costume. Does it seem somehow familiar? Hehehehehe.
Snort, this reminds me of the graphics of OFF.
Day 10, Style: Basic watercolors.
I was in a Don/Leo mood. It’s sad that no matter what incarnation, they rarely get proper brotp-moments. I can easily see them being really close because of their similar calm and sensible personalities. They probably enjoy each other’s company and talk about different things. uvu
Gravity Falls Theme - Full version
Also known as the catchiest damn theme in the universe.
I love Gravity falls’ theme so much *_* So beautiful~!

Day 9: Sortuneen maailma(World of Sortunut) Style: quick, sketchy, ilnearty watercolors.
I’m back from my lil break :>
Day 8, Ink Turtle Style: Big sized brush, aiming for calligraphic look.
BTW! I’m going to parents’ place tomorrow and stay there rest of the week. So I’ll put the challenge on hold until I get back home again.
Day 7, Regressing to breakingpoint Style: Painting with Paint tool Sai
Finally something more meaningful! My ribs have been giving me trouble this whole day(It was nothing serious, don’t worry), so of course it was appropriate to share my pain with my character Sortunut and draw some conceptual art of her. This is not a spoiler, just one aspect of her.
I’m very surprised this style looks very similar to Spiccan’s even though I wasn’t aiming for it.
Day 6, style: Minimalistic colored lineart, with most of the shapes brought out by shading.
In today’s picture we see Ruija when she’s trying to study math.
Day 5, style: straight shapes, done with a brush of which shape is not controlled by pressure.
Something very simple today, I’ve got fanfics to read (not to mention one math’s exam………)
Day 4: Uhm, one comic page from Adventures of Tuliaana, my web comic Ahahaha. …. Yeah, inspiration hit and I didn’t want to stop and draw some random picture, so I’ll present this as today’s entry x’)”’
