Lalalala break

At some point I'll even clear out this mess and find my mouse . . . incidentally, if any one at the House of Fong happens to come across a pink USB mouse, please hold on to it for me or place it on a shelf or something. I need it to do 3D things.

Just work in progress stuff for now, since there is no school work! Yaaaay~! (or not yay, I can't ever finish anything anyway.)

(Also: fuck, I'm becoming a character artist. Fuck. Fuck!)



Why green hair . . . ? I guess for the fun of it . . . ? Also, embarrassing slow workflow revealed. It's supposed to be a tarot card she's holding, and eventually it might even become The Fool. I'm pretty sure she goes with the interpretation that the Major Arcana is the journey of the Fool to, um, enlightenment. Also, I have a feeling that this is another color-retarded character. I will resist the urge next time and do a perfectly color-coordinated classy male figure; unfortunately he'll probably lavender or robin egg blue coordinated, the rate I'm going.


They're supposed to be twins who grew up to be opposites but still like the same things (symbolized by the red? I dunno, I just like that color a lot.) Again, embarrassing workflow revealed! One day, these blobs of color will in fact become people!

I find when I paint stuff randomly a story sort of assigns itself to the picture anyway.

it's great to be lucid

I think it's a wonderful state of being.

Anyway, REAL work always goes firsties



A design for the flash class. There's a story behind it, The Nightingale and the Rose, or "Oscar Wilde Bitches About the I-Know-What-I-Likers in the Art World." Otherwise enjoy your suicidal bird shirt.

I won't get this out of my head until the 24th. So um deal.

Miss T on the train back from Harschmort

Chang on the train from Harschmort, same scene.

Really not a lot for him at all, but the Trifecta of Doom needs to represent itself in equal measure to the Triad of Wickedness.

Le Comte d'Orkancz & Angelique, totally prior to the events in the book sort of kind of perhaps? Right when he's like "hey you should contribute your memory to the greater good."



The Contessa!!!



I think she is my favorite villain in not just the book, but in a long, long time. Again, I'm really kind of curious about her motivations and also glad not to know . . . ? D'Orkancz and Xonck had great James Bond type motivations, so her ambiguity is crazy cool compared to those, it makes me think that she had an even better James Bond reason for being in the Cabal with the others.

And to top it off a color sketch of Edie in costume. Wtf that wig is ridiculous, I need to curb my terrible wig fetish a little for reality's sake.

we're all having SUCH a FANTASTIC time here in the RANCHUMS

I seriously don't know what is wrong with me today. It must be the insomnia + coffee spectacular combo attack.

why am i doing this

Wooooooooooooo give it up for Eyes Like Night!!!!



Shooting the old man/cat was a bitch and her dog to do and plus someone was getting super fucking snippy.

Okay real supposed-to-be working shit:




And as usual the doodles I do in class while watching youtube videos of crazy people instead classwork in class:


I haven't really posted anything of this woman being ridiculous. Also featured: her normal boring life as a waitress.

I watched all of Pohadka o Honzikovi a Marence, and while I don't necessarily need to understand what they are saying (and also I thought Honzikovi was a silent character until he started chewing out the fairy people.) And while I don't know how to say Marence's name I do know how to say Honzikovi because Marence screams it several times with echo. I don't know how badly I want to see the Krabat tale. I hear it's supposed to be like Harry Potter except Dumbledore is Satan.
