You’re always just a message away

My chibi drawings need a lot of work. I sketched this yesterday (at… 1am) and finished off CGing it today. I used to be able to get chibis done in a couple of hours, but this probably took 6-8 all up. Oh well, it’s done… Which means I’ve finished all the art I owe people… Which means I can go back to drawing my characters at last :D

I attempted to experiment with cooler shadows. I don’t think it worked, but oh well. I also experimented with putting some backlighting(?) in. I kind of like it.

Here’s the sketchbook page it comes from:

I am actually going to stop drawing myself eventually. Really.

Feeling a little under the weather

It’s been a while since I used Flash. I can’t draw proper pictures in there, but cartoony ones are fun.

Where are you?

Hey all, I finally have a new completed image to show you all!This was the prize for whoever caught the moment when I hit 10,000 page views over on deviantART a few months ago. As it was, my best friend Cass caught it! <3 Cass’ requested image was a picture of their character and their friend’s character from an RP in an urban setting. Urban setting became somehow became shopping centre, but regardless, here’s what I ended up with. This is my second attempt at portraying a crowd, and I hope I did better this time.

For anyone interested, I have included some detail shots after the break (:

Gemma 100111

A late Happy New Year to everyone. I bring you my first drawing of the year. It’s not a good start. For some reason, if I draw straight onto the computer, I can never get anything right.

It’s supposed to be a drawing of one of my friends, like in Maya Broke – this is another girl from my 3D animation class last year, Gemma.

I’m hoping to bring you a finished picture soon!

Kitties 12/13 December

I’ve been drawing less than I had hoped. However, my sister spent the last couple of weeks house-sitting for a cat breeder who’s daughter she often babysits. They were the most adorable kitties and, having no idea how to draw cats, I thought it would be a good exercise to try sketching them. I only managed to sketch them when they were sleeping, but it was fun.  Just ignore the other drawings. (Click for larger)

While I was drawing the first night, one of the kitties, a ginger cat called Cosmo, became all curious about my sketchbook, even licking it a bit I think, then eventually decided to jump into my lap (my legs were crossed) and fall asleep there. It was adorable <3

I couldn’t stop one of the other kitties from licking this page.

So there you have it, and now I can draw cats (well, kittens) slightly better than I could before, yay.

Maya Broke

Ah, Autodesk Maya, the fun times everyone has had with you… not. This is one girl in my class, Aimee, whose file started to corrupt on a regular basis in the latter half of the semester. She never actually cried, though.

In regards to the picture itself, I was trying out using the pencil tool for inking – apparently it’s a fairly common thing to do. I don’t know if I like the results, but this was a quick picture, so I didn’t put that much thought into the lines… It was possibly easier than inking with the brush tool though. Possibly.

Invisible

I was meaning to do something completely different when I started out procrastinating drawing this.

Alternative background colour, since the the other is hard to make out. It makes the fact that it’s really messy more obvious, though, as well as changing the mood. I like the other one more :’D

Guys are kind of a bother~

Someone said something on Facebook that really ticked me off, because it showed that he only looks at girls for, well, to get them into bed, something that really annoys me in any gender. So in a fit of rage I set pencil to paper and ended up with this. I need to stop drawing myself…

It’s inked, but I still have to add some detail to the shirt and line weighting. If it comes out well, which I’m hoping it will, I’ll probably use it as a profile picture or a much-needed updated ID on dA or something.
