Tsukino-Con 2014

Hamon!

I just came back from Tsukino-Con at the University of Victoria on Vancouver Island. I gotta say, I was pleasantly surprised that under a rather unassuming venue, there was a group of folks subsisting on good will and hype.  It was also nice to explore a different scene, close enough but all the same different from the Vancouver crowd.

Heichou got no sleep

At my table I was doing the usual illustrating, even got a few commissions. Before they disappeared, I snapped a few pictures. 

Unfortunately I could only do pencils, since I brought my inks but no white or correctional tape!

All in all, a good first run in the con circuit. All fired up to get some more stuff done, but first I gotta stretch the hands and make some time.

2014 Weeklies 3

Mosasaurus Pitfall!

Still working on action and stuff, drawing inspiration from the pulpy classics.

I can't draw water worth a damn. In colour, it's as simple as tweaking values on the surface with transparencies (I'm underselling it, it's a value puzzle), but in b/w monochrome ink, it's kinda rough.

Swing on, kiddo.

2014 Weeklies 1

It's a new year. I'm going to try again to push my skills to the limit; in drawing I find I only improve as I make myself force it. So look forward to a lot of dumb stuff on the weekend from here on out!

OM NOM NOM

I had a craving for spot prawns...which at the time of posting has yet to be sated -_-;

This is a character I'm going to be doing some work on as she's relatively easy to draw and has been stewing in my brain for a little while for a comic project. More as this develops
