if all else fails, make it naked

You hear me. POAST MOAR FUCKING ARTS NOW

A lot of random sketchy stuff, some older, some newer, most from doing those stupid book-promo things and having to sit around and doodle for two hours :p


Fawsky things. Teeny little Miette, foxgirl, Axel snuggling with Miette and Rhys and Axel snuggling n.n


Sketch of Rick Sebak who was sitting next to me :P He's kinda a local celebrity, he does shows for TV and radio about the history of my home city for the most part. Also: OMG CATS


I uploaded this to DA but I'll put it here too - I only uploaded it there cos I think it's a pretty good sketch. I wanna do a full illustration for the Russian fairytale "The Firebird" cos I loves it so much. Ivan Tsarevitch is such a SISSY but I love him. Russian fairytales rock so much.


RANDOM STUFF. You get the idea. Mostly nothing important except I like how some of them came out. Also, Neanddir is in there :D


Thinky thinky, Savvy turned me on t Islamic djinni and such, so after doing lots of research I was all psyched to have a djinn character too :p She's a water-variety, which is an amusing contraditction because apparently djinn are made of smokeless flame. Hmmm? Also, random sexy foxgirl.


More randomness but I liked how it turned out :3

So yesterday I had to do another book promo thing and even though I didn't sell ANYTHING I got to talk to interesting people and I met this one really sweet girl named Masha who also does artsy things :3 After chatting she showed me her work and actually gave me some! I wish I would've had something to give her at the time for it back.. because omg it was so sweet of her ;_; She gave me a drawing she did of Dumbledore and also a little elf/fairy. So fucking sweet. It made my day so much!! That was one thing hat I kinda liked about these lame book promos, is that I got to meet some interesting people. The day before, I ended up talking about theology and religion with some lady and it was pretty neat. People ARE interesting, and amazing, but my god I wish I wasn't terrified of them :C

kbye

you have been bamboozled.

Hai gaize :B One exam tomorrow and then no moar skool until I go to Germany! But I may, next semester, be sitting in on the Intermediate German II class, just to keep my memory fresh.



Something srs first. More problems between Axel and Rhys :C Axel doesn't get along with Rhys for a very long time, even when things seem to be doing better...


Lawls so I was thinking about putting Sergei as an adult in this one story I have in my head, which is more sci-fi and such. He's russian obviously (not me blatantly stalking russian boy in my classes NO WAY) and so is Nedyenka, except Nedyenka is nuts :D I don't even know if that russian is right and frankly I don't care~

type like you have a disease!

I SHOULD GO TO BED

BUT ART FIRST




SOOO I decided a long time ago that Solais has more than one child to Ivan. I figured she also has twin girls, and then recently I figured they would have one more son. Misha (Miichaiel, full name) is obviously the most important because he is the oldest by far, is blind, and also a VERY spiritual person and the only one of the kids who has fully functional wings. I am not sure of the full age gaps but Misha is at least a pre-teen when the sisters are born, because he needed a lot of care, being born blind to two inexperienced young parents. :D Svetlan and Nesta (Nadiyzhda, full name) come after, and take more after daddy obviously. Sergei was thrown in later :> Well, I may not use him or the sister at ALL in the story, cos well, when Solais has Misha he becomes the key character. I might use Sergei in another story too XD He is based off of a guy in one of my classes :D yay!

Yeah, Ivan and Solais are a multiracial couple so they have some oddly colored kids o.O;

a post is fine too

Quick OMGIWANNAGOTOSLEEP post of doodles from the past few hours :>


axel doodle/speedpainting~ maybe, just maybe, I am getting the hang of drawing him again :3 he's been a challenge to draw because in my mind, he is both feminine and masculine, secretive and enigmatic, but also fiercly protective, sensuous at times... etc...


cos solais is cute and she's really growing on me finally, i love her so much <3


and zomg MOAR RHYS because i am fucking obsessed with him ;_; this is him older. like maybe in his early 30s. i admit i can't draw people who look older than 21 or younger than 70 so stfu :/
still, i have this obsession with him, cos he's so interesting and dorky and cute and I FUCKING LOVE GINGER BOYS ARGH!

thas all :O i've been working more on big stuff lately as opposed to doodles~ but i loooove doodling so i need to get back to that.

MOAR ART POST >:O


Something dorkycute to cheer up Aysha. Rhys trying to be Prince Charming to Astral, who is the last person that really needs a prince charming ;P
in the bg:
Raulanos: EXCUSE ME wtf r u doin???
Naroth: .......... *dagger*
I hope I don't creep Aysha out too much c__c; Sometimes I feel like I am a fangirl to my friends.



Something I've been thinking about for yeeeeeeeeeerz, a scene from my story which of course involves a goddamn royal ball. I've been all about the outfit things lately so I finally drew up a sketch of Solais in a pretty ballgown-type-thing. I imagine it a nice scarlet color with gold. And Rhys freaking out at her showing some cleavage :x As if she has much to show.



My markers SUCK and I tried to marker a quick bust of Axel but of course most of them are dried out and I lack the colors I need to color things with my current color sensibility c_c Still, this is the first time in years I've gotten an ok approximation of Axel! YAY!


MOAR RHYS because I am for some reason really obsessed with him currently. He is sooo cute and stuff. He is really sweet and kinda ditzy but very well-meaning with a childish sense 0f justice and fairness and the proper way the world should work. LOL Aysha called him a 'man-child' c__c; He's not totally braindead, he's just kind of sheltered, and one of those people who always maintain that is good in the world no matter what he goes through. He is very charming, really, if you like cute ditzy ginger boys. Another attempt to draw him in a coat like I imagine. I like this best!

ZOMG I GOT ACCEPTED TO GERMANY! 8D

SON OF A FACE!!!

[mood - WHEN AM I NOT TIRED]
[music - la fraction - qu'un]

WAAGGH I just finished my first gallery show opening! It was fun but OMG SO MUCH WORK. I got some good compliments and discussion and of course having cute boys talk to me about my art is always good :D I will maybe have some pictures soon. Or not,i n case I don't have any.

Anyway, I guess I should update more often but I have been doing more finished work and not so many sketches. I figure I should put something up now for all 2 of you that visit :D


So this is Rhys-outfit-thing number one, very casual and kind of saucy in a way :P How scandalous. His country is sort of conservative and so this is a bit less clothing than one would wear normally. But thats just kinda how he is for awhile :P I love his smile... he's so cute. Have I ever mentioned I love ginger boys?


OH GOD Rhys looks like a pirate :C I wanted a more conservative look now for him, where I thought a long coat would be good but damit. I like it though, though I was thinking maybe I want it to look more Russian? I was thinking his land is something like a mix of scandanavian and slavic anyway.

That all for right now, I am trying to do a lot ofoutfit stuff cos it's a lot of fun BUT I feel guilty like I should be doing more portfolio pieces. But.. I really want to make OUTFITS. And draw people ;.; I luff my characters so much I could explode. I wish more people understood all this @_@;

[music - e-rotic - max don't have sex with your ex]

Yo, muhfukkaz. I haven't posted in a looooong time. Bad me, bad me. It's not that I haven't been drawing, oh no, I just don't have much to post cos a lot of what I have been doing is uhm, innappropriate or rather big and still in the works atm. I am also SICK and it is pissing me off because I hate being sick, I can't get ANYTHING done because I have to sit here blowing my nose every 5 seconds and have my sinuses BURN.

I did have some wild fever dreams today, though @_@;;

So here are some inky thingies I did as a commissh for my darling Julia.

The Captain of her piratey story.



Alexi of ambiguous gender and position on the ship.

also


I finished this, and while I really like it I am afraid to upload it anywhere :/ Ugh, me and faces just aren't cool anymore now. I don't even have anyone to ask, to be like "hey am i allowed to upload this ;;? Does it rancidly suck and perpetuate my streak of terrible faces or it is ok?" Bleh.

I love you Laudon, why aren't you real? ;__;

nichts war zu spät

It feels so good to be posting :D Because it makes me feel somewhat productive. Yay.



The same profiles I am really insecure about, but with hairstyles. Ok, it's even harder to see the facial differences now D: Sigh. One day I will be awesome at faces. I feel like I am pressure/like I want to go more cartoony or something?


Obviously I don't like scholars very much. Also: rat-nymph and Brandon-vulture.
my sketchbook is filled with this shit D:


miette doodles for aya n.n


i love this sketch, and I feel like I really want to get a ref for it and redraw it, but I can't think of any method to really get what I want across besides pencil sketch. I don't know what to do with it either. No I'm not emo, neither is Solais, but sometimes the pressure of being a healer/doctor is really awful.


D: more scheisse~ I'll give you different faces!


Unicorn boy for Laura n.n I like this a lot ~ omg i love drawing hoofies so much! And with curlies in brush pen *-*


Yvonel face thing, used a ref of sorts ~ my god is she manly o_O but I still think she is gorgeous and damn I wish I was her.

das ist alle :P

ideas, me pretending to know russian and FRANKLIN (which is a children's show about an anthro turtle, except i wanted to draw a horrific looking real turtle)


those of you that look at my art a lot (all 3 of you) know i don't really draw chicks like this but she kinda... fell out of my pencil/pen last night.. something about wanting to draw that particular curvature~

enjoy (tilde)

pichurs

[mood - TIRED AGAIN geez]
[music - mediaevel baebes - la volta]

cos blogger is easier to upload and post photos to than the usual FTP and HTML nonsense I'd have to go through otherwise :D Hope you enjoy. These are my PICSHURS from my trip to San Diego/Carlsbad for the Illustrators of the Future award. These are taken by my dad or me~


The hotel outside~ which is right across from the beach! It was a wonderful little hotel, very clean and SO providing! Free cookies 24 hours a day!


Overlooking the beach *_* There were cliffs over all the beach so you either had to walk about half a mile to get to flat ground or climb down the cliffside to get to the beach.


moar beach!


the ocean *_* i have never been to the oceanside before this so it was a wonderful treat. The ocean is GORGEOUS and this is the Pacific ocean of course which didn't smell bad at all though it tastes terrible.


Me and Laura, another illustrator winner on the beachside.


Sunset on the beach. I like the one little fisherman guy :D


HAY LOOK I KNOW THESE GIZE! More illustrators, who are all AMAZING people. Left to right: Tamara, from Halifax, Canada; Melanie from Perth, Australia; MEEEEEEE OMG; James from Chicago; and Kim from Boone :D I roomed with Kim on my stay there. This is on the patio eating lunch which was served to us~


Eldar, who is from Uzbekistan, and Olga, who is from Kiev, Ukraine. Olga did NOT like her picture being taken, which is a same because she is such a beautiful woman. I love her style so much. She is also very talented. Eldar was the gold award winner for the Illustrators! :D


THE STAGE for the gala ceremony thing. Ok, the large photo of L. Ron Hubbard looking like a pedophile IS really creepy but it made for many good jokes about him looking DOWN ON THE PEONS DISAPPROVINGLY!


zomg me on stage giving my speech~! EEEK!


Nate and his new wife signing boooooks~


Me and the author of the story I illustrated, Brandon, who was also the gold winner for the Writers. Very attractive face there, Brandon :P


Aw~~ Alex and Xaymara :3



Moar illustrators; Nate from Seatttle; Miguel from San Diego; Ozzie from Jersey; Melanie again.


I will have more at some point.. these are just what I have atm.

I hope you enjoyed~ Looking at the pictures makes me feel all depressed and yet really warm and fuzzy at the same time. I miss my new friends and I miss the lovely weather and the beach and all, but all the same I get a very nice feeling from having done this.

I will also have sketches at... some point or another in the future, I have found the love of a moleskine sketchbook + micron pen *_* sketchy sketchy~
