Syrenity the Unicorn

"Syrenity the Unicorn"

My model is my very own chestnut Arabian mare, Syrenity. I made her a unicorn as apart of an assignment at school. Truth be told I'm very proud with how this turned out since it's the second time I've drawn her since I've had her.

The Griffin

Wow could this have come out any smaller?

Gladiola 1.0

"Gladiola 1.0"

I'm going to really try and study flowers and nature a little more, we can start with this. This was done in photoshop, I'm trying to stay away from lines for a bit so my stuff stops looking like a coloring book thus here I'm using color as the line.

Three Character Designs

For my character design class this last week, our teacher told us to draw three characters in the style of three comic book artists. He gave us a good list to chose from but said if we had someone else in mind who was not on the list that we could run the name past him. I really enjoyed this assignment he gave us, so far it's my second favorite that he's given us in that class. Below you'll see my pictures and I'll give you links and/or info on the artist I referenced.

"Celeste in Alessandro Barbucci"
Firstly, let me say that Celeste is an O.C. (original character) of mine from a story a friend and I have been working on for the last ten+ years. Given that my style is more anime this was a bit of a challenge. The artist style I'm referencing here is Alessandro Barucci, a French comic artist who's best known for his story Sky Doll. He really has a thing for large eyes and small noses... hey I do too so yay us!
"Saera in Jim Lee"
Marvel & DC fans will recognize the name of Jim Lee I'm sure. He's done some great work on X-Men and Batman. This chick here is another O.C. of mine, Saera is my alternate spelling of Sara, silly I know but I made this character up before Jr. High and my spelling was worse back then. While she is hands down my oldest character I've only drawn her a handful of times. This is easily my favorite of the three and I showed her to my dad who's a big Batman fan and he loved it, saying it was very much the right style. 

"Anne in Kouta Hirano"
Anne is a brand new character of mine, she like almost a year old... and it was very hard to draw her and not color her hair black. Anime fans will know Kouta Hirano for his work Hellsing, oddly enough his name was spelled wrong on the first Hellsing volume that was translated... 

Alessandro Barbucci's blog This is in French.



Shake of the Head

"A Shake of the Head"

Okay so this is super friggin' short, but it's kinda my pencil test. A cat shaking it's head once, this isn't even one second long so you might end up watching it a couple times.

Raiden

"Raiden"
Raiden is a highly trained warlock-like character of mine that I’ve had since like.. 2003 I want to say. This is the first time I’ve drawn him though just because he doesn’t like to be seen.
And in truth neither of us are thrilled with the way this picture scanned into my computer. It looks so much better on the sheet of paper sitting on my drawing desk.
Raiden is a highly trained assassin who controls shadow demons, hence the dark shapes around him. Now his sunglasses are not there to make him look cool, as per the usual boring crap, they actually serve a purpose. His eyes are extremely sensitive to bright lights, like more so than the Gremlins, so these help him see.
The medium I used here are manga grade markers.

Bambi's First Kiss

"Bambi's First Kiss"
This is my favorite scene in Bambi and I have absolutely no idea why.

Mina - The Alchemist

"Mina - The Alchemist"

This is an original character (OC) I've created for a story I've been working on for a little over a year now. Mina here is an alchemist but she's also considered an eccentric. She dies her hair bright red, has 13 tattoos (10 of them are on her back), works as a nude model, and is a big flirt. Out of my three main character's she's the sexy one you want your boyfriend to avoid, not that she'd steel him she's too nice to do that.

An Anti-Something Member, A daily doodle..

Well more of a monthly really, I've been working on her for a while now and she was going to be a character for a Resident Evil / Biohazard fanfic I was working on but I don't think I'll get around to writting the fic due to time and trying to finish another fic I've been doing for over a year now. We'll see what happens.

Daily Doodles/Drawings

In an effort to do some shameless promotions to get followers and some feedback on my art, I'm going to start something later today called a Daily Doodle. Simply I'll put up one picture, be it pretty or fugly, and we'll sit back and see what happens. To give you an idea I'll give you a drawing I did last week, then add another drawing later tonight.

Oh and to my fellow Wiccan/pagans/whateveryoucallyourself: BLESSED BELTANE!

No I don't know what creature this is...
