Drawing our hearts out
From the monthly archives:
MS isn’t liking exporting things as JPEGs today. I’m worried it’s sick. But here is one of the many forms of Willie’s Pepsi that exist in my brain. I’m not sure whether it should be a boy or a girl yet (although Dr. Pepper is definitely a boy at the moment. His henchman is Dr. [...]

After a little incident on the SD forum, I decided to research mangakas a bit more. I ended up finding gold: a mangaka’s timetable. And wow, look at those hours. The fact that they only earn their big money from the tankoubon sales must make the first two months or so absolute hell with very [...]

For some reason I felt like doing something insanely complicated on Manga Studio.
It was fun, but took ages… I think it was worth it, but definitely not a style I will pursue in future. Even though it’s pretty…

Trying a new technique of roughly sketching the face first on a midtone skin colour background then adding highlights and shadows. Found out I quite like this technique
Reffed from cugot12’s photo gallery on devart.

Before anyone thinks anything, typical hentai-ness aside, this was my vague memory’s representation of Alexia, from the game Resident Evil: Code Veronica. Been on a Resident Evil 5 binge lately y’see, and Alexia was the last RE character I found more interesting – Mostly because she put herself to sleep for about 10 years to [...]

It takes me an extravagantly long time to finish a single panel, as you can see. This took ALL day. And, because any existing deities seem to rather dislike me, literally the day before my manga studio arrived, my parents moved my Neo’s with the tutorials in into the attic, along with many fineliners. How [...]

Mondays are just completely exhausting. This one (All day Fashion-Show rehersal combined with trying to absorb the -te form of japanese verbs) was just even more so.
So, Fashion Show dreams, Lolita dresses and Bunnys (named either Bob or Usa-chan depending on who you talk to)

The wii was delivered today. It was pretty distracting so I’m a bit late.
Looking at Kiri’s work on manga studio made me want to try it again and I hate it as much as I did before. The niggles with the export/import on debut will ruin your tones if you don’t get it right and [...]

Quick sketch I did with a crappy red pen, I know the uniform is wrong and stuff, I but didn’t use any reference so yeah, bear with me please =w=

Colored version of my previous sketch o_o It was fun to color =w= I still srsly need to improve on my shading and stuff though.
I think the jacket makes it look like his torso is much shorter than it really is o_o

Sorry I missed a couple a posting days guys, I was in a car accident (thankfully I’m unhurt) but my life has pretty much been taken up with trying to sort out insurance claims. I pulled up at a set of traffic lights and the driver of a 4×4 (who apparently didn’t think red meant [...]

When you feel happy, you draw happy! *Looks back at her past sketches* Seems I’ve been having a lot of ups and downs lately! Well, I have just had the painters in…
Drawn with black biro at first (yay, the original medium!), then ticked off with the usual Uni-ball Eye Micro. I quite like the mix [...]

Man, con days are tiring! With the travelling in the morning, walking and talking to people all day, and being well knackered in the evening, I didn’t get any actual practice drawing in. Luckily, I drew this little idiot while actually at the con, so I can put today’s cross in with a clear conscience.
We [...]

My main expo comic character. She’s meant to be about 13 and to have a spookily cute sort of quality, but this is just a bit of a mess around with manga studio, anyway, so you can’t really tell ^_^ I doubt the main thing’s going to have greys in it though, I’ll probably keep [...]

Based off two characters, who are siblings. The sister is a naive airhead type, the brother is pretty uptight and serious.

I am going to start studying different patterns. This is a kranok design, which is a rather basic Thai design with flame patterns. I left the blue sketch and made it darker, so the basic structure is visible 8D
