Day 84
So I skipped yesterday due to some heavy thinking going on… yep, thinking.
Besides giving myself a headache from aforementioned activities I’ve also gotten around writing down the biggest part of my ‘Tiger’s Eyes’ story/comic. Well, written is a big word: it’s mostly tiny doodles with some unintelligible scribbles next to it.
So here’s an...

Day 83
These are some sketches for a short comic called ‘The Monk & the Mountain’. Not sure if it will ever be finished as I just can’t figure out how it ends…
(via Kickstarter - STRIPPED: The Comics Documentary)
This is such a cool project…
All you comic fans out there: only 25 days left to pledge!

Day 81
Nothing special for today. I spent 3 hours freaking over my computer not wanting to start up when I got home from work. So yeah, I kinda wasted my time being slightly panic-y.
All seems to be ok now…but if you don’t hear from me in the next days, you know what happened. :S

How to Talk to Little Girls →
guerilladanceparty:
“I went to a dinner party at a friend’s home last weekend, and met her five-year-old daughter for the first time.
Little Maya was all curly brown hair, doe-like dark eyes, and adorable in her shiny pink nightgown. I wanted to squeal, “Maya, you’re so cute! Look at you! Turn around and model that pretty ruffled gown, you gorgeous thing!”
But I didn’t. I squelched myself....

Day 80
Today I present ya’all some Noepjes (pronounce ‘noob’ -‘yah’-s). They are the ‘female’ form of the Furzian race; cute little furry creatures that look suspiciously much like cats walking on their hind legs.
Oh, and don’t ever say a Noepje is fat!
They’re big furred.

Day 74
I’ve been absent for a few days, sorry…
I decided that my chars for the Last Ancient needed some reworking and I’m really happy that they’re actually starting to look more like individuals.
Finally got Darian’s nose right. Took me bloody 3 years to get to the conclusion that it needed to be wider, not longer. *sigh*
Also: small scribblies of Ravyn and...

Tigers, tigers, tigers… this time referenced from ‘the real thing’.

Day 71
Some sketchies for a story I’ve had in my head for a long time already. In fact, it is based on a dream I had years ago about a girl with tiger eyes.
I’m being mildly optimistic here but I think I will actually get started to turn this into a short comic. Wish me luck!
And yes, this update is late. I know. :S

Day 68
Something fun. I was looking at this piece by ~RanTanTan on Deviantart and started sketching out a similar face, but it quickly turned into something else. Just don’t ask me what it is.

No inspiration lately, so yet another costume sketch for the last ancient.
I must confess I just can’t stop browsing the archives of OMG that dress!. (Historical) Fashion addicts take note!

Day 66
Sketch for a minor character, adjusted some in PS because the proportions were way off, as usual.
Dress was referenced from a real historical piece circa 1890. Probably it was not worn by someone working in a bar…but hey, a girl should have a nice dress to wear every day!

Now back to the daily updates!
I think I’ve got Ravyn’s face quite like I wanted it in this sketch. Might still change my mind about it though.

Day 60, 61 & 62
I’ve been too tired these last days to do anything. I hate it when my job eats away at my resolution to practice drawing daily. Makes me feel like I will never get to doing the things I really like.
So here’s some stuff to make up for the past days!
> A Lion Monkey! Concept sketch for the last ancient. Not yet happy with the result though.

I was actually pretty happy about this one until I saw that her arm was wayyyyy too short in comparison to her body.
Bleh.
