I've actually been working on a spread the last two nights but I can't show it because it's under an NDA. And working on that means I have a Breakaway page that's not even laid out yet. Ah, life.

Not a lot done yesterday because it was PATCH DAY and I needed to try THINGS (for my efforts the system rewarded me a potion that I slipped into the guild bank and hope never to see again).

On the cool side of things, the job I applied to in February and figured I hadn't gotten... actually appears not to have been filled yet, and I've been given a test assignment. So I'm just freaking out a little (though maybe it's not a bad thing no one wants to commission me, if I'm going to be coloring a lot of spreads o.o)

Didn't work much on the bid but I think he's cool enough he deserves more screentime :D



Didn't get to lettering this yet, but that's ok because even if I totally forgot, I imagine most wow players would get it.

There was stuff done yesterday. Actually, I guess technically none of it's done, but some of it is getting close :P

It's monday again. How does this keep happening.







How many more times am I going to remark on the fact that I need to clean my scanner before I do.

A I finished this page I realized I'd never lettered the last one. So I got to agonize over dialog last night.



And then I poked at this one a bit. It's getting to the point wher I've had it arond too long and I'm looking at the parts I hate, and if I don't finish it soon I ever will. I'll try to get it done tonight I guess.

Could not be arsed to finish. Meebbe today?

There is a point at which DA just needs to stop counting how many messages are in my inbox and just put up an infinity symbol. Because that's effectively what a number over 400 is. I can't even respond to them all at once because after about 100 or so the system decides I must be spamming. So by the time 400 are taken care of, 400 more are waiting :P

In any case, it's come to my attention that I draw weird things.



Though sometimes you just have to draw pretty girls for no raisin (not done yet).



And I reaaaally dislike having to sketch and clean up an image on the same night, instead of letting is sit, but I've already wasted a lot of time ._.

Urgh. Sunday and Monday were emotionally exhausting days for me and I just could not be bothered to do anything. I guess it was a good thing. I finished that commission on saturday and haven't had any new ones com in (though quite a few 'let me see if I can save up for it's). Plus it gave my thumb time to heal. It definitely looks like a permanent numb spot, but at least it doesn't feel like I'm being stabbed with needles while I hold a pen.

ART IS HARD.

Anyway, Breakaway has a nice buffer so if I don't complete a page before the weekend, no one will notice, but Alt-z is always done the week of, so I'm pounding on that.



And then just a random silly drawing I thought of Monday and finally started last night



And then this got some work over the weekend but I forgot to upload it. The deep shadow on the raptor needs to be corrected so it's no so dark, but otherwise I'm ok with it.

Hmm. I finished this up over the weekend. I have a really weird issue where I think I was holding my tablet pen too long, and constricted blood flow to the tip of my thumb. As a result, I have a numb spot that becomes painful around the edges when subjected to pressure.

My friends, I think I have started in on my journey to draw myself to death.





I worked on the troll shaman as well but it appears her progress image didn't get uploaded. Poot!

I didn't get a lot done yesterday, because my back was hurting too much to concentrate. But I did poke at this a bit, so I'll show that.

I'm going to try to finish it today to make room for another commission I think is coming in ^^

It is friday, and as with all fridays I'm ready to go home and nap.





This one is looking a little weird atm because the main character is the only thing that's flat XD

ARgh it's Wednesday how did this happen.

Pounding away at this page, and realized that Kay's bill is supposed to be white (I picked up her coloration from a bizarre little duck that has been swimming in the pond behind the office - I think it's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Coot this guy). So pffft at some point I need to go back and fix the previous page. B'oh.



And bringing these two closer to a point where color can be slapped on.

Borf. I didn't get looots done but I did something so that's good.

Scribbling out linework for the next Breakaway page, and it occured to me I may want to simply paint most of it in photoshop anyway.



Then I fucked around for an hour trying different poses and lots of erasing later I came up with this for the commission I'm doing (omgomgomg). I sent it off the the guildie buying it, but it was really late so I haven't heard anything. It's also very messy. Even if he wants something else I'll probably finish it, because I think it's really cool.

Lol 2 for 1 sale.



The Alt-z page was actually finished and lettered last night, and I reallly like how it looks pulled together (there's a lot of unnecessary empty space while I color - but as with all things, I find it better to start big and cut down than have to try to add).

I didn't do a lot this weekend. Because I am naughty. I made noise on my DA account about considering commissions. And was just going to slink back into my hole until two people said they want to see a price sheet and a third knocked over several old women to shove a very reasonable amount of money at me.

So cool, maybe I can pretend to be an artist :D

(I did a liiiitttle bit of shading)

Work was very slow yesterday so I had a lot of time to draw. I was pleased until I realized what I'd actually done was give myself work to do over the weekend. GASP

Finished Emily



A pair of sketches I've had for a while and would sort of like to do something with.



And then this is a rough idea I had yesterday that I sketched out, that I was hoping to paint this weekend but



I found this sketch that I've had since last March, but still liked so I decided to try and finish it. My linework is always terrible so I'm sort of mixed on it.



And I actually had time to start in one next week's Alt-z



And the Breakaway page I forgot to upload yesterday.

It's Friiiday omg best day of the week.

I finished that Breakaway page and then forgot to upload it so you're just going to have to pretend it's awesome for me. K?





I had some free time at work and forgot the file for my redhead, but somehow did have the file for Emily. I was close to finishing it last night but was somewhat unwilling to stay up another hour. Tonight though, I think :D
