Prepping for AC and being generally busy.  Finally done being sick too.  So, a few outstanding badges and a few sketches.  I'm going to scan some of my pony girls tomorrow and hopefully two headshots I finished, they keep getting pushed back to other scanning sessions.....been SUPER busy!

Badge for myself for AC.  Another example of my Ink Spill badges, this one without white paint.

Fancy badge for Fox for AC.  Trying out a new paper pack, I like it quite a bit. 

Name Sticker badges for Boe for AC!

Anatomically incorrect Merri and kinky Merri.  And Parenthetical Girls lyrics.  (from 2011)

Lyrics from above songs. 

And finally....I really like Legend of Korra, even more than the original series now...<3 and Bolin is Liam's SPIRIT ANIMAL.  He would totally crush on Bolin so hard too so naturally I had to draw it.

Also I hate Mako x Korra.  A lot.  You can guess I prefer Borra.

Badge, sketch, and adult ACEO

<3 My BFF and co-owner of nearly all the characters has a birthday coming up and got to be a guinea pig for my 20s photography badges.  This was so fun to make, all my favorite things at once pretty much!  I hope others commission me for them JUST so I can draw more of them, they're so fun.  $15 each, they're standard badges.

A sketch I've had kicking around for a while.  Trying to make more dynamic images, draw more humans, and human/anthro interaction.  Also I wanted to show their relationships through movement and positioning. I think I did a good job.  Transferred and began inking, it'll get purple sketch lines added since I really love how they look.

Kept forgetting to scan/post, it's in my portfolio pile.  A few animals I sketched at the museum.  I love taxidermy specimens...they stay still for you.  the fawn is my favorite.  His/her spots were SO vivid, but the shading I did made it hard to add them.  I originally was going to paint them on later.

Made two months ago (close to when the above was made).  A lot I'm not thrilled with but overallI like it.  I may finish it.  And yes, I do see Baphomet as my preferred way to visualize the universe/nature in a single form of chaos and balance.  Philosophically I'm similar to a LaVeyan Satanist but not exact.  And while I haven't done much yet I have a lot of interest in sigil work and other kinds of magick.  I never thought I'd find faith but hey, look.

This is not meant to be "satanic" or "offensive" imagery.

Digital Practice

Will be posting some digital sketches and practice things over the next few days.  Adjusting to using a tablet and trying to find a way to color, mostly.  Any helpful/enjoyable programs and tutorials will be posted here too.

Bloodfeast on FA sent me this and it's full of nice tutorials, color palettes, etc: http://mistahyde.tumblr.com/tagged/Digital

3/15/12: MLP and Dancer Inks & Sketchbook Scans

So, WIP update of the trade with my IRL friend.  Need to add another marking I forgot.  I also need to outline that circle still...I'm already coloring it.  I usually like to color clothes with markers and bodies with pencils if I'm doing mixed media, and I'm doing that with this picture.

My MLP dolls are close to being complete, sans Gala dresses and elements of harmony...those are thus far not started.  I did some questions on a few sites and decided to do a Luna doll and either a Derpy, Vinyl Scratch, Zecora, or Big Mac if I have time for extras too. 

I decided to make MLP ACEOs in the style I use for my own MLP drawings, as opposed to the dolls--which were in some ways closer to the style of the show than my usual comic style....which for MLP is a lot cleaner/more refined and pony influenced than normal...

I already finished this, it's really cute.  Fluttershy's next.  So far, cutie marks aren't showing on either of them, but they're shown with their passions/livelihoods.  I may keep it up and keep from showing their cutie marks on this series.  I may sell a little print of each one with their matching doll, IDK yet.

Practice, may go in portfolio as a sketchbook example. Right now this is my typical sketchbook, actually.  I've been doing a lot of work with human and animal anatomy and poses.  I drew the skulls from reference (except that crappy one to the side) and the ones with noses, eyes etc. w/o reference, to practice laying skin and muscle over a skull.  The coyote is less than I would have liked but I was having trouble fixing it.  I guess my canines do need some work.  Also, bamboo lemurs and golden mantled tree kangaroos!

Two character concepts.  The top right is a genderqueer FtM mongoose lemur named Gage.  He likes pomade and 50s hair, heh.

The other design is not really like this anymore..it's a tree kangaroo....thing.  Named Jazz, short for Jasper.  Gender null.

They're supposed to be best friends and partners. 

 Will scan soon.  :)

3/6/12: Badge Trades // Sketchbook Page // Gift

Inked half of a badge trade with Vore.  Mm, zombies.
