No convention announcement post would be complete without a table map, so here’s mine! For my first AA experience, I’ll be at table E06, so all you lovely Toronto people, and people who are visiting for AN, please stop by!

While waiting for that faithful Friday, I thought I’d try drawing something a little different. What do you ask? Well…ponies! I’m not gonna lie, the designs of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic are pretty cute. And people’s takes on the ponies and humanized versions are just amazing. Not wanting to be left out, this little sketch was born on my iPad. Then something a little cleaner came around. Is it still cool to make pony versions of yourself? Yes? No? Maybe…? It’s fun though!

I swear, inking is 20% cooler with purple lineart! That’s it for me, look out for a convention report and photos soon, and be sure to keep an eye on tranquil solace for future, planned conventions!

More boredom induced pen doodles. It was a quiet night shift, I found scraps of paper and went to town, hence the pokemon themed doodles, they caused a coworker to squeal with delight when she noticed the little Pikachu one. Should really try drawing some “serious” pokemon art and see where it goes. The other two are from morning shifts a little while ago. I really should carry a sketchbook(and a better pen) with me for those quiet moments at work…and hope to not get in trouble!

I recently treated myself to a new tablet! If I could describe the intuos4 in a word, I’d say, AMAZING! No really, when using it, everything feels so much smoother and it’s like you’re drawing on a piece of paper with a pencil or pen. I can understand why a lot of digital artists sketch directly in Photoshop/Painter/Sai with it, everything is so fluid! Now if only I had a desk large enough to fit the damn thing.

A video of the colouring process, should really have recorded the inking session as well. I’ll remember that next time!

o1. Revamp the layout of the site. Had a couple ideas in mind

o2. Finish the 10 images of my very vague art project. I have 2 of the planned images completed, along with a banner image. Go me!
o3. Complete my business card design. Thanks for the tip Finni!
o4. Just draw MOAR!

So with that list in mind, I’m going to do a little work this afternoon! Starting with this…

There’s just something so fun about drawing caricatures of oneself. That’s all for now!

Amazing the kind of things you can come up with while waiting to go on a lunchbreak, during a quiet morning shift. No idea where these floral designs came from, I just started making one and went to town from there, but I definitely like them! Now if only I could reproduce the effect in photoshop…I think this calls for a little experiment.

Been on this kick of drawing those mameshiba things. Might as well try and make little vector pictures of them all!

Think I’ll redraw these…oldies but goodies, I love them ♥!

Been having a little trouble getting the procaster to work since I made a livestream account. Well after making a few forum posts, I learned the problem was my screen resolution, so with that in mind and being a little bored…you know what I did!

The end result! I’ll definitely stream more often and when I can figure out why photoshop lags with the procaster, I’ll stream myself cging something!
