Wow.

I wasn't intending on leaving this blog without a post for so long. I'm getting married to the girl of my dreams.. in 4 days!

Fat Haruhi Cosplayer.

So bored today - stupid drawing inspired by a trip to a local convention recently. There were many people dressed similiarly.

Different Brush.

Trying a different brush. Was using it so it was 50% in one pass, then 100% black on a second pass - interesting having to get suggestion of form with one stroke then use the second one to just define it.

First pic is Naota and Haruko from FLCL.

Second pic is of a (dead?) girl (having a nap!)

Cat Eyed Boy (Plus NSFW Pin Up Action!)

A quicky - inspired by Kazuo Umezu's awesome manga from the late 60's - Cat Eyed Boy. Currently half way through Vol 2. Bit like Astroboy mixed with Tomie.

Also totally stealing the colour palette used by Viz for the amazing retro sleeve design.

Speaking of Astro Boy. Here's an oldie that i just finished off since it started looking okay to me again and needed to be finished off. Nice and colourful and sunny for a cold rainy day.



Now for something completely different!

Unfinished pinup girl with weird proportions!!!!


WOOOWOOOOO!!!!

Metroid Lesson

Here is a lesson - Don't keep working on something for ages when it probably doesn't deserve to be worked upon. Is this an improvement over my original 20 minute Metroid? Perhaps. Or maybe not.

Also what happened to the Doctor Who I was working on..

Lazy Metroid.

I have been really lazy lately.

Super lazy work right here. I felt bad for being so lazy on the Super Art Shambles so I decided to do a really lazy Metroid entry when I saw James had already posted his very nice effort already.

Speaking of lazy - heres another I never bothered to finish.. Misty from Pokemon for the Pokemon week...

I use a lot of pink :/

WIP - Dr Who + MOAR

WIP again of the Doctor Who thing - added stubble back. Added a TARDIS so it makes more sense. Just some details here and there.. I forget what else. Jacket detail.. pants changed a bit.. hair a bit.. needs more work obviously but I'm beginning to actually think about the setting - probably just an empty destroyed city or something sad. Empty Times Square or something stereotypical of big american disaster films.

OTHER PIC - X-Files for the super art shambles. Super quick job that took 2 weeks to gradually send to James - I did a lazy gradient pass to colour stuff and wound up with dark pink faces which I wanted to make different but never managed to improve. Actually looks okay to me now, despite being a lazy mistake.
