Been a while since I’ve updated this blog, but have no fear, I’m still alive and kicking! So Anime North came and went since my last update. Photos were taken and the experience was written about. Now that the convention excitement is over, time to get back to the business of art! So I’ve been posting little screenshots and works in progress on my tumblr. With that in mind, last night I started working on a little header image, just a matter of figuring out what to add text wise to the empty space. Also I’d like to finish the revamping the site by the end of the month, if not early August. With that in mind, I made a couple of little tweaks to the frontpage design that I had in the work. Almost tempted to livestream my progress, but then how interesting is it to see someone write line after line of css as opposed to drawing, inking and colouring a picture and watching it come to life? Either way, stay tuned! Last but not least…would any of you ladies out there marry any of these charming gentlemen?

I swear I saw the viking guy at AN this year!

Of course one must not confuse the title of this entry with an older, similar sounding entry. Been meaning to livestream for a while now and tonight since I had some time to kill…why not? Now just to generate a little more interest in the channel and get a few more viewers to hang around from beginning to end. It’s always awesome to see people working and have 50 billion people watching them as they paint away. Okay, so they don’t actually have 50 billion but they have a lot of people.

Been playing around with colour overlay layers, just like messing around with textured layers, it gives the overall picture a very nice effect.

Finally finished the lineart for this on Thursday night and flat coloured it. Was all gung-ho on Friday about about colouring this, or at least making a start on the background but, as fate would have it, it seems allergy season has sprung up a little early and my eyes refused to stop watering, so background painting will have to wait for another day.

And last but not least…totally unrelated to art but…NEVER SAY NO TO PANDA…EVAR!
