Artdump


Auraga and a "plant spirit". Supposed to look a little Egypt-y, but meh. This one is getting transferred to papyrus (now I've fixed the wony anatomy a bit...), although if I can't get it to work I'll digitally transfer it later.


Bad dream. Bad foreshortening! Meh.


Deco Mirii. Whee! :D There's going to be leaves and cogs in the border, or something.


Another boring portrait.


And another boring portrait. But eh. This is either a revision of the previous, or to go in the "magazine" at the end. And drawing Kiravai noses from that angle is a PAIN.


Yannis. WOO. He's missing a pair of arms because I'm not sure where to put them yet, and his face is lopsided, and his hair is a real barnet that I need to fix, :P but woohoo, huuuuman. (kinda)

Whee. All need editing and inking and colouring and stuff, and I probably won't upload ALL of it, because eh, I want to keep a few as a surprise to put in my book, but pfft. Your normal schedule may now resume.

Whee! Sketches! How fast can you actually scribble?
Are you going to colour them?

I'm not very fast, those are a few days' worth of effort. ¬_¬

And yes, I am - at least, going to TRY and colour them. ;)

Oh yeah, most of the time, I have to struggle with a few sketches too. DX
Have you ever tried to use markers and coloured pencils together? I discovered it for myself when I had a few markers and couldn't be arsed to do the shadows with a darker colour. The results are actually awesome.

Yeah, I usually use a combination of markers and pencils - although I haven't since I moved, mostly because I haven't unpacked the pencils yet, and I have enough colours of marker to try and do shadows with them. ;) But now I have a study taking shape (at last, although MFI still haven't delivered all of it) I have somewhere to unpack things INTO, so I can find them at last...

O.O

I'd also like to have pencils, which are unpacked. *Sniff*
