it's been a while!

Here are some sketches I've been meaning to scan forever!

...all the way back from 2011

A sight not uncommon in Dublin... Unfortunately. SIGH.

timid creme

Hello it's been a while! I thought I would have updated at least something closer to New Year, alas. 

Haven't really done much lately, but I should try to sketch more, to feel like I'm doing something besides failing to find a job.

So here are the phases on something I did last week, enjoy!

old fashioned girl

Tachikawa's School-G pen + watercolor.

Just something I drew on a plane on my way to Finland. Had to clean it a good bit in photoshop, as the black ink spread quite badly. :(

Little Prince comic

Again, this was an assignment for college - our class was meant to illustrate a sequence from a book of our choice and bind a book. My choice was The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. Originally I planned to make illustrations along with some text, until my teacher gave me thumbs up to do a comic. Something I haven't had much time for during college.

Originally I was planning to add color or pencil/graphite shading to the comic, but unfortunately I ran out of time. I think I still might color/shade this over the summer, as I didn't get some of the atmosphere across as I wanted.
I had to summarize the story a bit as well, hope you enjoy it nevertheless. Please click the thumbnails to enlarge! :B

As long as I have tried to become a cartoonist, I was surprised to realize that this 12-page comic is actually the longest comic I've managed to draw.

Feel free to give me any suggestions you might have, since I might still work on the shading and color. Cheers! :)

some ink+watercolour work

I've started practising with watercolours again, but I'm always so paranoid about ruining the picture with my sloppy lazy colouring skills, that I scan the line art before adding colour.

I used golden acrylic for the background pattern, unfortunately it doesn't look that good scanned. :(

The character below is from a PS2 game Odin's Sphere. I don't draw that much fan art these days, but I just couldn't resist drawing Velvet.

I actually prefer the non-coloured... Still so much to learn! D:
