Doodle: 072412

These were kind of fun to do, except I did them right after each other so I’m really tired now. ;A; I ended up really liking the second one; I’m quite fond of the way I drew her face and hair. :)

I’m considering opening commissions in this style; full body figures, with slight color wash. But we’ll see if I’m up to it after I go on vacation (side note: I’m leaving for Canada in a couple days, so I’ll be back in about a week afterwards! :D). Also, gotta consider if anyone would actually be INTERESTED in commissioning me, in the first place, for USD. xD

Uhh, I don’t remember what else I was going to say about this… So… Bye! ono/

Doodle: 070912

Just a small doodle to practice faces w/o reference. Took maybe an hour, more or less. I’d like to make a habit of these; anyone who’s followed me for a while may see a habit of my use of traditional mediums. Digital just downright scares me sometimes. So I’d like to try doing a couple 1-2 hour practice sessions a day just to practice some things i’d like to work on: figures, faces (especially frontals), painting, color/values, etc.

working title: Made of Stardust
Ashley suggests ‘I Wish I had a Tardis

Oh look, original artz. Nothing much to say; I just wanted to paint some cool stardust and nebulas again. This time around, everything just hated me. All those colors.

Meanwhile, I need a name for this. Maybe it’s summer, but my brain isn’t working properly. As much as I’d like to call it “I Wish I had a Tardis,” I can’t. So uhh yeah, please be nice to me, followers, and suggest some cool names to me. Here’s a ?

Just some doodles. I’ve been weary of starting a new piece since I start school next week, so I drew these. Maybe if I have time someday, I’ll finish these up and add a bit of color. :)

Oh boy, birds.

Girl WIP

Doodled this while waiting for class~ I haven’t drawn in my style in months, and… I think I got better? o____o I mean, with all those lectures on proportions and with figure drawing. Well, to me, it looks better than before.
