It’s summer where I am in the Southern Hemisphere at the moment, and what a summer it is. When you live far away from the beach, a good alternative is a wading pool with ice blocks thrown in for good measure…   **** Digital shop ♥ ||Prints/hardcopy comics shop ♥ Latest downloadable comics:

今から空を

CG, 2013.

先週末はCCASメンバー展示が終わりました。今から正月かもしれません、もうイベントない津もりです。そして、プロジェクトを終わるように!スイーツNV第二はもうすぐ描きしまうし、別マンガのデザイン中し、別話も作っていますよ。最近、雲の銀色を見ていましたから、今日の絵が出来ました。それとも、舌と歯を描きたかったから…ふふ。

先々週の展示公開で、自分の絵について、色々なお客様の話が少々聞けました。最もよく見てたお客様はぺらぺらに韓国語で何か言っていました。韓国語がまだ分かっていませんから、どういう意味ぜんぜん分かりません。;;「여차」(女子)が何回も聞きましたが、それだけです。;;結局、あの人たちにいる男性さんが、自分の絵に近づいて、絵の女性の下にいる「アイスになっている女性」を人差し指で目指しました!男子のお友達は皆様から「お~!」という音が出ました。わーーー!自分には、本当に面白かったんですわ!その上、誰かが自分の絵をよく分かるようにすれば、嬉しいですわ。皆様、心の底から、こんないい経験ができてくれて、本当にありがとうございました。

Almost forgotten paintings from 2012

For tonight, two illustrations I kind of forgot about for a minute:

Quick sketch, featuring artistic input by AusTerror.

Present for an absolutely awesome family 🙂 This was the last pushed painting I did, and it was a lot of fun: keeping things reasonably smooth and finished looking, having a fairly clear idea from the get-go of what I was trying to do and fixing little things along the way.

the Missing April Megapost

April was a kind of busy month for me. But I did manage to get in some practice doing things I’m just not used to, and start focusing a little more on working from imagination.

So let’s play catch-up in one mega, mostly chronological post:

 

A speedpaint done exploring some new things I’d learned about lighting. Done with less reference than I had recently been using.

 

As you might have noticed from the blog, I don’t tend to draw animals often. So it’s a bit of gloating, but for my first time drawing cockatoos (piecing these guys together from reference and imagination), I’m fairly pleased with this one.

The background was not such a success though 😛

This one was inspired by my own personal Easter weekend alarm clock. Thanks, guys.

 

I’ve always been a bit nervous about exaggerated caricature – it feels a little like the extremely skilled but at least moderately evil twin of portraiture. One very cool cartoonist on Twitter suggested these were more cartoony portraits, which I’m a little more comfortable with.

Although I really do want to crawl up on character #1’s cheeks and fall asleep. *_*

 

Practice with environments, something I very much need. Neither from reference.

 

A bit closer to my painting roots after a bit of a mad week – simple, four tone painting (not including eyes, background or clothing), form and lighting from reference. Lately I’ve noticed that I seem to be able to crack out of a tough art time more quickly when I’m painting my favourite muse…funny that.

 

And to cap off mega-post, a quick speedpaint.

 

 

Goodnight, everybody!
