After various events in the social network sphere, maybe it’s time to make a return to Tumblr. I guess we’ll see what the future holds, but I remember really enjoying my time here. I should probably do art more.

Anyway, I’m about to start a Twitch stream, going through the back half of FF9. Come hang out if you’re into that kind of thing.

I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything here, but I haven't had much to share lately. Maybe I'll tell the story someday, although I don't know that I have much more to say than I've been busy at work and generally discouraged throughout the rest of my life recently. I've gotten a few drawings in here and there, but it's been a long time since I've had an ongoing streak.

With each passing day, I keep looking at my sketchbook though. I have new pencils. I spent a while tonight trying to find something to draw, but I didn't see anything that really called out to me. The point is, I have pencils and am at least looking for things to draw again. I'm working on it.

Sketchdaily - Witchers

Okay, so maybe not technically a witcher, but she came damn close. This was a quickie sketch after 72 artless days, so, although not my greatest, it’s getting back in the saddle.

I hope you like it!

Sketchdaily - Helmets

Lunch break doodlin'! It was a long day, and this was a relatively tiny sketch, so pardon how rough the upload looks. They said helmet, and I had to go with the Black Knight.

I hope you like it!

Redditgetsdrawn - Geezweeze

Okay! It's been a while since I posted anything, but life has been hectic for a week or two. I'm trying to knock the dust off my art supplies with an RGD and decided upon Geezweeze.

Interesting things happened here, but I may have screwed up an arm. You decide which one. I think I got the eyes looking good, though.

I hope you like it!

Sketchdaily - Roses

It’s been a hell of a week. Ready to do some drinking.

Sketchdaily - Phoenix

If this is the life, why does it feel so good to die today?

-Metric, “Grow Up and Blow Away”

Drawme - Lepticidium0 

Sketchdaily - Portraits

Lepticidium0 is an art major and wanted to see herself drawn. I knocked this one out in about 20 minutes on lunch, made a few mistakes, and convinced myself I was okay enough with them to upload. So here's this!

I hope you like it!

Sketchdaily - Florida Man

Florida Woman Accused of Biting Off Man’s Fingertips During Group Home Attack

I don’t even know. I didn’t do her justice.

I thought I'd try to get some kind of experimental with this one, forgoing the dark hair and background for something more minimalist. Also it was quicker. I... don't hate it. Haven't worked with harsh lighting on facial features in a while, so that took some getting used to again (and I'm still not sure how much I got right/wrong). Maybe I'll do some more like this.

I hope you like it!

Sketchdaily - Eyebrows

I saw mention of eyebrows and immediately thought of Fooly Cooly, so here's some Commander Amarao for you, complete with oversized, taped-on eyebrows and a gun that is tinier than I thought.

I don't draw in a manga style very often, but I will admit that I like it.

I need to work on filling in large areas with pencil. Hmm.

I hope you like it!

Perspective work status: Failed, but improving.

Yes, yes, I'm finally trying to tackle some perspective. Most of what I've done has been at a few angles, and none upward or downward. The reference photo was at a downward angle, which I tried, but things still came out pretty straight. Ergh.

Overall, though, I'm happy with it. Just not the perspective. Shading worked out, and I think the goggles are okay.

I'll get there.

I hope you like it!

Another sketch, but I kinda wish I'd gone through with digital. I need to get back to that soon. Hmm.

I spent around 30 minutes here, struggling with a profile (which I think came out okay) and drawing a too-tiny waist. Maybe she won't hate me for it, but it's something I need to work on.

Also: straight lines! Agh!

I hope you like it!
