Icon Thingies

Little symbol I drew based on Wow's class icons for our wedding. Purple is druid for me, and blue is rogue for him

Not enough hours in a day :/

Gah, this whole employed thing sure puts a stopper in personal art time... As does wedding planning and 10k run training D: So many unfinished projects gathering digital dust in my files... sigh. I did get a request to colour one of those dragons from a while back, so that's something!

Azure is a pretty colour... Hopefully updates do not span such large gaps of time from now on :/

'Nother Netherdrake

In a little art block from tension lately... Doesn't help the computer keeps messing with me :/ But got another drake sketched out. Hopefully I'll get colours on them at some point

Netherdrake sketches

Trying to get this idea I had a while back going again. To draw all the mounts from World of Warcraft. This was a less daunting idea back when there were under 200 mounts... But still, I wanted to try it again. Netherdrakes were always my favourite back then, so I figured I'd start there.

Progressive Clip Art 03

Another random piece for the boyfriend's work projects. Contest winner flyer art

Avengers project, Iron Man Final

Travel delays resulted in a finished version... Yay? Bright side of an expired passport = productive. Ish.

Avengers project, Iron Man Progress

All I've managed to finish on the Iron Man piece before heading out of town for a bit. Hopefully it'll get finished soon. The sneeze theory did not work sadly - the Iron Man suit has proven to be... complex. And I thought Thor was a rough one to figure out >.> Ah well, it isn't fun if it's easy

Avengers project, Thor

Next on the list was Thor, at the pleading of a friend of mine. Progress was opposite for the last one; Hulk was a fast sketch/layout phase with most time spent on shading. This one was a long drawing phase, but relatively fast to shade. Maybe the next one I'll sneeze and the thing will magically be done...

Avengers "art project", Hulk final

Final version. About 20 hours total, mostly on Hulk and not Mark Ruffalo's face... Done with black/white charcoal, black pencil crayon, and assorted graphite pencils on 9x12 gray construction paper.

Avengers "art project", Hulk progress

Saw The Avengers; I thought it was a fantastic movie. Fantastic movies always make me want to draw afterwards, and for the first time in a while, I have the time to work on art when I'm inspired :) So, progress shot of the first of (hopefully) a bunch of these. Current time spent is at... uh... The Incredible Hulk (2008) x 4 viewings, and 7 episodes of ST: Voyager. I've missed gray paper and my pencils...

Current Project

Current model I've been working on. Needs rigging still, but surgery has resulted in a drastically reduced work schedule this week...

Portrait Work

Recently completed job, inspired by the Harry Potter portraits I'd done prior (HermioneSnape). Request was to portray the subject in "Hogwarts attire" (not her clothing from the photograph) and have her "patronus" as a polar bear cub. Wish I had a scanner that could fit 11x14 pages...

Leo, Mayan style

The cover for our Fine Tooning book was voted to be Mayan themed, for 2012. So... Mayan art style Leo, to be a teensy part :D

Fine Tooning page

My pages, at last approved for going into the graduation class art book :)

Progressive Clip Art 02

Another clip art piece for the BF's pet projects at work.

Reptilian Life Drawing - Mar 30/12

Lizard day! Friend of the prof's brought in their pets to class for us. That was the best life drawing class ever... I clearly need to go hang out at the reptile zoo here more often.

Mekgineer's Chopper

Part of a comic I threw together for my friend. He broke his arm while dirt biking and needs surgery, so... wanted to make a "feel better" gift for him. The Mekgineer's Chopper from WoW is the same as a dirt bike, right?

Progressive Clip Art

BF is putting something together for his team at work, and wanted some art to put on there. Just a bulldog with Progressive clothes on...

Life Drawing - Mar 16/12

Tried a new Nupastel combo today: gray midtone on the newsprint with black and white shadows/highlights - seemed to work well enough. I still miss the control of a pencil whenever I use conte or pastels, though...

10 mins:

Film Model Pieces

Stuff attempting to seem organized and pretty regarding the film.

Life Drawing - Mar 9/12

Had the sword fighting instructors from the college suit up and do some motions for us in class. That armor is complicated :/

Life Drawing - Feb 10/12

Long study from a few weeks back. I was kind of making up the hands and foot as I went, since the model kept shifting. Not an excuse, but... yep.

Life Drawing - Mar 2/12


Long study from today. I'm still not a fan of Nupastel, but at least when I have an hour to draw with it, it has the potential to maybe come out ok...

Rough film animation test 02

More done to this scene. Nothing will be "final" until the end of April...

Experimental Farm drawings

From this past Friday. Went to the CEF Agricultral Museum to draw the animals all day. Got only a couple decent-ish things, but a couple is better than none...

More Captain Hooks


Just more of the same, but different!

Rough film animation test 01

Working on the first couple of scenes in my film. Just the initial poses with very rough timing so far. Just wanted to document I am indeed working on this... :D

Captain Hooks...


Our latest life drawing assignment is to draw Captain Hook from Disney's Peter Pan. Not just draw him, LEARN him so we can draw a life model as him without reference... Via a minimum of 10 head shots and 8 body shots. Whee... I don't mind the character, he's pretty fun actually; the movie though? I'd never seen it in full until today... Yikes. Racist, sexist, teenage-boy-jerkness..A good movie to watch frame by frame with no sound :/

But onto the drawings. Not done yet, just the first few:
