I felt abstract today...

...and so I ended up with something that I think would be really cool as a fabric! Perhaps I'll take a closer look at the fabric customization site, Spoonflower...

I saved two versions. Which one do you like better?

Dramatic Jinhai is Dramatic

Liek, srsly. Jinhai looks really dramatic from this angle. I think it's the bangs.

Also, today is the birthday of my uncle who I attribute much of my enjoyment of Japanese culture, manga, and the manga art style to.

So, Oji-san, o-tanjoubi omedeto!

Feliz cumpleaños!

Saengil chukha hamnida!

My Rendition of the Female Pandaren Child

So, a friend and I saw this image floating about the internet somewhere, and I thought, "That's cute, Blizz, but I could draw it cuter." 

The friend said, and I quote, "doooooooooooooooo eit," so I did. Here's the result. :)

On Characters and Digital Art Programs...

Looks like a future awesomesauce adventure group to me! These are some kids from the cast of a short, practice my friend and I are writing. Names from the left: Syuma, Skander, Luwan, and Nobundo. 

It took me awhile to color this. @_@ I started it last night, and had to leave to program up all night and finish in the morning. Not being able to save layers isn't much fun. I use the program Sketchbook Express from Autodesk, which is basically a demo, so when I save images it merges all the layers. I'm thinking about now it would be worth the thirty bucks to get the full version, Sketchbook Pro. ^_^

It's a Squee-Shirt!

I got my custom t-shirt in the mail today! Extreme happiness!!! It's yellow, it's adorable, it's comfy! I want to make more designs and sell t-shirts like this.

Forrin and Soro!

I drew this up awhile ago, and I'm not sure anyone's seen it yet. :)

The elf is Forrin Sorolom, for those who haven't met him or do not recall, and his bird is named Soro.

From March

Tonight, I leave you with this self portrait from a few months ago, drawn on my iPod from the reflection on the window in Taco Bell. xD I had gone to a dance with some friends, and we dressed sorta twenties-ish. I had a good outfit for it, since, around the same time, my choir was singing a medley of music from Thoroughly Modern Millie, and it was all choreographed and costumed and awesome! So much fun. Enjoy!

Ooo! Unrefined Character Design Samples!

And suddenly... Pandas!

So. I drew panda faces yesterday. :3

A normal panda.. and a very red red panda!

Yay for lovely adorable designs. :3

More of the stylized kitty face. :3

Kitty Doodles

So, yesterday, I discovered Cafe Press. o.o I spent most of the day doodling adorable kitties and polka dot patterns, experimenting with Cafe Press's design interfaces the entire time. I'm very excited that I ordered myself a t-shirt with this stylized image of a kitten I used to have on it. :D (Also, by getting this t-shirt, I'm doing research. I'm considering designing and selling t-shirts and other such things more strongly than ever. ^_^) 

Jinhai with a random laptop

He's just so much fun to draw. Especially in chibi form. O_O

More Character Doodles: Jinhai

This character is kind of a mystery. 

I'm not sure quite how he'll play into the story, yet.

He claims to have been raised by pandas.

More Character Doodles: Reaza

We're basing the comic in the world of the game World of Warcraft, hence we get characters that look like this. :) This is my friend's character, Reaza, who seems to love potato soup.

Kyriellice

Meet Kyrie! A friend and I are planning to create a comic. Here's a character doodle I did. :)

A kitten and I drew this together. :)

Red Panda!
