For some reason I was inspired to draw an ewok with a bordok :)

Here's a recap of some stuff I've done this week for myself, mostly, and something I forgot to post with the last batch of sketches. I have some I haven't scanned yet:

I went and scanned some art. The art ranges from April 06 to now, but most of it is less than a couple of months old.

D'aw! Puppy! Drawn from life. Sleeping puppy at Berbalang's abode. All the scribbles on this yellow paper are from a little sketchbook he gave me and I take it pretty much everywhere now :D

For Shadowfax and a local coffee house. I love working loose like this. The art is actually reproduced really, really, really small. Smaller than the screen is showing them :D

Baba Budan!

Not behind cuts because they are little!

First, li-on Jinn (Name coined by otis Frampton) for a fan in Hawaii :D


Second: The Joker


I'm having fun :D

Here is some art. Sketches and scribbles. Some are recent, some have been kicking around for a while. There's a ton of wow fanart behind the cut. I scribbled these between sketch cards to draw anything but LOTR.




( Much art behind the cutCollapse )

I have more art than this. I'll probably do another post tomorrow :D. Working on some stuff this evening, too.

I finished the pieces for Dragon*con, hooray.

These are the new pieces to go in the art show. I did a colour version of obiwan/boga, but I totally forgot to scan it. Argh.

I might have to put a note on the back ofit requesting a scan from the buyer, if it sells.

These are 2 of 3 or 4 new pieces I'm doing for dragoncon (I'm selling some older pieces, I need to find barnabus this weekend).

The other 2 pieces are 'Harold vs dingleball' (Which I *WILL* be doing) and 'Blarg the sneaky rogue' (Which may get done, depending on how my freelance goes)


I need to go in with a pencil crayonin some spots that need to be punched up, but I'm continuing to layer the watercolours. It's very therapeutic

( behind here areinked versions of some things I drew earlier in the yearCollapse )

I might make bookmarks or stickers out of the muscid-draconis. The top and bottom mice can be easily pulled from the piece, great for stickers :D

I'm not going to cut these, because they're all smallish. Lemme know if they break you, because I'll do some cutting (But not the emo kind)

Two personal pieces. You can take the girl out of WoW, but you can't take the WoW out of the girl. I'm doing a couple of tutorials for hunters in the 50-60 pre endgame area. I'm sure I'll get some know it alls telling me i know nothing :D

The first, which isn't going to change too much:
Chain trapping and you


The second: Which needs to be slightly redrawn because the composition is wacky. I'll probably do it digitally
hey! Where did the baroness come from? (or sometimes you should put your pet away)


This means nothing to anyone who doesn't play the game, the illustrations are both based in strathlome, so I'm going to be doing some screencaps for background reference.

I also did these two sketch cards. Batman and Scarecrow :D

I've been sketching up a storm in between recolourings, I have a little to do list I'm going to start to tackle tonight (It's VERY hot. Very very very very hot. This isn't helping my productivity. I need many fans. Many more fans. I'm moving the one I have to blow on my face tonight so I can actually get something done).

For now, some scribbles for things I'm planning to polish up for dragoncon.

D'aww! I'm going to give him a friend in the final piece.



( More behind the cutCollapse )

I've also been cleaning up and colouring LOTR sketch cards, here are a couple of favourites:





Enjoy! :D

This guy was originally drawn, god, in 1998. I was inspired to draw him again because I found the art behind the cut:

( Old art from 98Collapse )

I think the old one has more character, but I'm having fun. i want to do some tighter, slightly more anatomically correct versions of this Roo hero.

I think going back and drawing some of my old characters will get me back into more arting!

Hey all! I coloured in this card today, I have a little art corner set up in my hotel room. Go me! :D

He's up on ebay for anyone who is interested :) I only have one more card after this one.

That is me pulling the crutch of being able to erase away.

This is a Gila Monster skull referenced from boneclones.com. Drawn with a ballpointpen in sketch book.



And this is a balrog, which I will hopefully have on my person and on ebay sometime within the next week. Marker and ink over an extremely loose pencil sketch.



I'm working on my LOTR sketch card gallery, that'll be up by the end of the week :)

I've done 3 and a half custom sketch cards + gila monster + 5 pages of kindergarten scribbles + various studies. I think my art slump is starting to wear off. :D

I needed to warm up and get some bad art out of my system before tackling good, art, so here are some World of Warcraft related sketchies.

(PS! I am working on stomrtroopa and ackbar today. And I have some lovely paper for my TMNT page that doesn't bleed when i use real ink.)

jenelottie and Grunkk (Yes, I signed this 05, oops)


( Rest are behind the cutCollapse )

Going to do some more ambitious poses and stuff another day, just needed to get this stuff out of my system :D

Here are a few of the many sketches I scribbled over my vacation.

I have many, many more, but they are either too scribbly or part of freelance work (like 506 odd LOTR sketch cards).

I'll start you off with a rare Amara. Haven't drawn her in AGES.



( Lots more behind the cutCollapse )

Hopefully by the end of the week I'll have some tight pencils of a Stormtrooper and Ackbar :D

*edit*

I forgot a picture!

OK,

More of my cards have been approved and I'm uploading them via very slow dialup right now.

Here are all of the cards which have been approved so far. I have 20 cards to go, so I'm going to get cracking.

I need to update my web page the olde fashioned way, too, I think I'll save that for later. If I don't feel like FTPing, I am updating my deviant art account, so keep a watch on that :)

( More cards behind the cutCollapse )

Non accurate representations of my hunter pets on WoW. :D

I love Swoopy.
