Sketches, WiPs, & Jazz

Got quite a few things to show today so I'll cut the chit-chat short and just post the pics. :D

Couldn't sleep again after closing at work, so a 4am doodle of a BGal Lyra? O__o


Some concept sketches for my thesis I did while at a party for work...'cause I didn't want to dance. lol Oh, and Lyra snuck her way in there too. ^__^


I think I'm taking a liking to the story of Marsyas. I can turn him into a jazz sax player which will be good for my musical side, an added plus is I own a sax for reference. I miss performing. :(


Wanted to practice photography, and who better a target than my lovely Jazz? I wanted to show a play on Light/Dark:


OH MAN my new Acrylic paints just came in!!! *excited* More on that later, I'm gonna go play with my new toys now! :D

Captain: Lineart

So...this is probably the last thing I should be doing right now, but I was really starting to go crazy without hand inking something in so long, so I kinda had to? O___o;;

Also, I was itching to test out my media idea for my thesis. I want to do my pages on HardPress Watercolor paper instead of bristol, so I could watercolor the pages nicely. However, I have no idea how this technique would work and how the ink would flow on it. So I drew up Lyra real quick, which turned out to be a longer drawing, and inked it with my beloved W&N 2 kolinsky brush. I love that thing, and it was so nice to ink with it again. Damn I'm such an art supply geek. XD;;

Consequently, I also wanted to draw a sexy woman. hey, it's fun, but I always seem to have a hard time with it lol. :D Soo here's the somewhat sexy Captain Lyra:


Now to test how my Sennelier Watercolors will look on it! I've never really watercolored on HP paper yet so it should be a fun experiment. The biggest thing I'm worried about is weather or not the ink will bleed...here's crossing my fingers! >___<;; If not, then at least I can save this particular image and just digital color it. :p

I have some sketches to show to...that I forgot to scan and now don't feel like it...haha, what else is new. XD;;

WIPS Tigers

'cause I said I'd post some WIPs.

My studio area always looks like a tornado whenever I'm working on big projects like this. lol but it's actually pretty organized this time 'round. I'm kinda proud. XD


The most finished one so far, but the others are all sketched out n' such. I still need to touch up this guy still. there's just so much to do! XD


OH CRUD it's time for me to go to work, I haven't even realized...fun times. see ya later! :D

More Doggies

These are just some more of my doggie sketches.

Salukis are hard to draw. O___o;;


I really want an Australian Shepherd or a Doberman. I love them!

Seriously, no one would ever mug me if I was walking a Dobie on the streets of NY late at night, even in the sketchier parts of the city. It's....for protection.....yeeah....so I can has? :D lol ^___^;;

003, and Oekakis

lalala...I did stuffs.

Here's the next commission in that series, I'm calling him the Grimace from hell rofl:


And I found a new home in Skylands Oekaki. apparently, it's where everyone from my old oekaki home moved to after it crashed. but me, being the genius I am, took many years to find it. I'm glad to have finally found it, it feels like the good ol' times drawing there. ^___^

First doodle:


Second doodle, practicing drawing tigers for my paintings:


I love Golden Tabbys. <3
