2008-06-20T21:56:00.006-05:00

Yeaaaaa...

Okay, I need commissions. Still. Because the fleshtone marker (don't laugh, I didn't have much moneys, so I only bought one...) that I use for like... almost every piece... DIED. I can use a peach colored pencil, and it looks okay... but I like to use my copics... SO! I need commissions where the customer pays at least half now before I get started! So I can get those copics that I need (Yes, I will be purchasing more than one this time...). So there will be a COMMISSION SALE!!! *throws confetti* Yes, that's right, I'm going even cheaper than my cheap-self normally goes--because I need the money!!!!!!!!!!

*wails* Please?

Sick... but still drawing!!!

2008-06-15T16:35:00.008-05:00

Okay, I've been sick for a while... just off and on, sometimes a fever, sometimes lightheadedness... Just general not feeling well stuff... But I'm still working my tail off, had to restart on one of the hotrods for Summer (SORRY SUMMER!!!!) because my puppy threw up on it, and I didn't think it would be very nice of me... Also, made a character to add conflict to the sotryline for the comic book I'm making, I'll be working back and forth between that and Summer and Buni and and and... Okay, not a whole lot to do... I intend to go to Nebraskon, I'll have a table, some sketches, maybe prints, and hopefully some buttons! There will be yaoi stuff, some yuri, some individual characters... Also, lots of commissions! I will take lots of paper, lots of my art stuff, and hopefully have some sort of list thingy so you can write down your name, details, and such, so I'm not forgetting any bits, like if you want inked, I don't want to stop at pencil... Also, if you have any desire to request something ahead of time and want to pick it up when you get there, let me know, and I'll have it done for you!

This is the bad bunny, I'm hoping to have some prints and full-stuff done of him in time for Nebraskon, so cross your fingers, I might post a sneak peek on here! I grabbed a colored pencil last night (Crayola (c) Mahongany), and started to doodle. He's going to lose the vest though... I don't like it.... and yes, those are rabbit ears with tufts on the end. The tufts will be red, the ears, and hair black, with pale skin and red eyes. This will make him more evil, I hope... Anyways, his name is Cornelius Damon, because I liked Cornelius, and Vivienne (a rp buddeh of mine) liked Damon, so he is Cornelius Damon.

This is the concept drawing I did of Buni, who is the good bunny-boy in the storyline. Yes, he's just wearing a thong. Why? Because he needed to be wearing something. Took the pose from my albino kitty boi, and made him a bunny for a commission, which then became a character, which then grew into a storyline... Anyways, this concept drawing is for sale. If I still have it, I'll take it with me to Nebraskon.

Plenty for me to be busy with!!! But I can always use more--help support the Starving Artists!!!

The Roleplay Addict

2008-06-06T13:18:00.004-05:00

Shut up, I like to roleplay. Anyways, I've found some nice places to rp, one of which I'm an assistant-admin on, and we have two registered members--me and the head-admin. So we're in need of people to just come and roleplay. As well as graphic desginers. Mostly just people to come and roleplay.

Roleplayers Anonymous
(Calling All Creators Roleplay)

This next one, I just like roleplaying here. My idea shot off like a rocket and is progressing rather nicely. The people are kind, very helpful... An overall good place. I'm HalloweenNumber1 here.

Roleplayer Guild
(Calling All Creators Roleplay)

This one I'm not as fond of, as I don't get notification fast like at the Guild, but it's still a good one to go check out.

Roleplay Gateway
(Calling All Creators Roleplay)

And yes, I took the same idea to three different places to see what kind of responses I would get.

Kitty Boi

2008-06-02T09:14:00.005-05:00

Took a doodle I did of my character Vaughn and made him into an albino-ish kitty. My scanner made his skin yellow, though, and I couldn't darken it or mess with the contrast, or the rest would come out too dark... Again, another piece for sale. I'll probably do a few more with different cat colorings. Watermark done in The Gimp.

This last one was a project, where I took different pictures of the kitty boy and put them together as a sort of collage. Put on a background, and voila!

Boy-Love

2008-05-31T13:42:00.007-05:00

Had someone ask about the Chibi Boi-Love 1 and 2, so I figured I'd post small preview images and links to them.

The first is Chibi Boi-Love that I did for a friend, who actually owns the red and black-haired character. The one gnawing on his ear is my character. They were together, not now... sad how these things are brief even in stories...

The second is Chibi Boi-Love 2 which is the same characters, different pose.

Anime Central (ACen, 2008)

2008-05-30T19:18:00.009-05:00

I went to ACen this year (hooray for me), and I met a lot of awesome artists and cosplayers and people. I sold three pieces of art that I had finished and took to ACen with me. At the right here, you can see one of them. It's Vaughn and Cassandra, entitled "These Ribbons Tie You to Me", took approximately 10-12 hours to complete, and it sold for $30 at ACen, purchased by Rob, from the UK who was staying in the same hotel room. He paid me $30 for it, when I only asked $25. He said it was because I was undercharging everything and was selling myself short. I know that I was, I know that I did, during the whole con, because the stuff I brought was all original characters that no one knew.

I also sold the original of the one now at the right, to another artist there at Artist Alley, named Chad Carlson, who had originally come over to give me a drawing of me that I had commissioned him for. Since the character I was cosplaying is obviously so obscure, and I didn't think to bring my Godchild manga, I just had him draw me in my brocade dress. Anyway, he was in Artist Alley at ACen, on the other end, almost straight across from where I was sitting, and he came over to give me the drawing and asked me how it was going. Friday was super-slow, I had had one portrait-commission earlier that day and that was it. This was because the printers had apparently exploded (possibly literally) and so it was painstakingly difficult to get through Registration and Pre-Registration. So thankfully the flow of people was slow the first day and I wasn't swamped. But I also wasn't making much money. But anyways, he pointed to this one and said "How much for it?" I thought about it, knowing that today had been slow for everyone, and knowing that all artists are really starving that first day, I said "For you, $10. You get the starving artist discount." Thus beginning the use of the "Starving Artist Discount". I'll explain that in a moment. I did another one of this, using some new copic markers on smaller paper, and sold it for $8.

This piece was entitled "Kitty Hat", done in watercolor, ink, and lots and lots of marker. It was a lot of fun to do, as the architecture of it was inspired by a place where I once lived. Anyways, it was purchased by Nathan, who became good friends with me at ACen, commissioning a piece of two original characters, one was his and one was his friend's, who he roleplays with. He told me about the story and who and what the characters were. I was proud of that commission when I was finished. I might redo it and resend it to him, just for the heck of it. He looked at another drawing I had done right there at the table and said "How much for you to take this drawing and turn it into a comic book?" I blinked at him a little bit and chuckled, thinking about it for a bit before I said "$40." He smiled and said "Deal. On one condition--you have to give it to me at next year's ACen. If it's not finished, you will owe me one free commission." I accepted the deal, with only one question. "What if I can't make it next year?" His expression told me that he hadn't thought about that. He said "Well, you have my email, so we'll keep in touch and see what happens between now and then."

This is the drawing that Nathan looked at and asked me to make a comic of. It's one of my androgynousy boys, who is kinda curtsying femininely, wearing a shirt that said "I am a BOY". The text ont he side says "I amuse myself at your expense." I liked this drawing, because it was just fun to do. Dorian, that's the character's name, is a cat-boy, for about two weeks after his birthday, which means he has a cat's tail and ears for a short time. I did another one, and it didn't occur to me to take a picture until after I'd long sold it. It was also of Dorian, but he was holding his tail looking up with a speech bubble that said "But I'm not cosplaying..." and I scrawled at the bottom "The Problem with being a REAL Cat-boy." I just thought it was cute.
