The Devil was an Angel

The Devil was an Angel

So yeah… I’ve had this picture in my head for weeks and finally I couldn’t take it. Thankfully this time when I drew it I finally got something that looked good.

This is a picture of one of my angel characters. She’s not really sane and also I think she might be dead here.

Originaly the coloring was much more involved but it just didn’t look very good. When I striped out the layers I felt that it was much more striking. I still hope to take this into Painter and make a painting out of it.

One day when Painter and I get along…

Edward in Painter Classic

Edward in Painter Classic

Just a test. Ugh. Painter hates me but I have a fondness for the water color brush. Although I hate that you can’t sample colors on a wet canvas.

Also I know that there is tracing paper in this version but I have no idea how to use it or what it does. Still I feel okay about this picture. Even if it’s not quite what I wanted and Ed is totaly off model. =_=;

I drew him from memory.

FMA band sketch #2

FMA band sketch #2

I thought I’d show my progression as I make an image. So I choose this rather complex one of Roy and Ed playing guitars, which is from a fanfiction I read.

More work on the picture of Ed and Roy in rock band… snicker. Here I’ve got Roy’s bass in and done but not Ed’s guitar. I plan for Ed to have a flying V guitar so that he and Roy don’t have the same looking instrument. Also Roy’s body will change directions since I don’t like it is it.

God, guitar’s are tough to draw. Also I’m avoiding Ed’s arm

I thought I’d show my progression as I make an image. So I choose this rather complex one of Roy and Ed playing guitars, which is from a fanfiction I read.

This image is what my rough sketchs tend to look like. I’ll start with the rough placement of the characters and the face first. I’ve been trying to not work to much on the faces but that tends to be how I’ll start a pictrue. The guitars and the bodies are barely there but the faces are almost completely drawn though not to my tastes… they seem a bit odd. Update to come soon.

The Shadow

The Shadow

Um, just a rough sketch for my comic that I didn’t use. I thought it looked pretty cool so I tried to finish it in Painter.

Painter 8 kicked my ass though. So you get this. Which I think is stylish but not what I wanted. =/

Prints are available for this picture.

FMA: Run Alchemist!

FMA: Run Alchemist!

So I drew a really cute SD Full Metal Alchemist picture for A-kon. Here Ed and Al run from Whinry who’s hopping mad.

This wouldn’t have taken as long as it did if I hadn’t gone into Adobe Illustrator to create the parody logo that no longer reads Hagane but something else. I’m not sure why the logo needed to be so perfect but there you go. That’s my obsession. =D

Too bad only like 4 people will find it funny. =/ I waste time. Colored in Photoshop.

Charon with his Wings

Charon with his Wings

So this is one of my characters from the comic I’m working on. His name is Charon. He’s got issues even though he looks so happy.

I purposely designed him to be every thing I wanted to draw. White overly complex hair, pouty lips, cool looking wings, obscenely tight clothing, and terror inducing giant manga eyes. Yep, he’s so much fun to draw it’s criminal.

Of course his revenge is to slowly become impossible to draw if not drawn often enough. Sadly he is not the most popular guy from the comic as most people like Black better. It’s probably because not everyone loves the sassy albino dudes like I do. =< I don't think this picture made it to my site but I'm fairly sure it got posted to Live Journal... I think. Hazah. He is a pencil drawing that was colored in PhotoShop 7. I should probably get back to said comic but first I ink stuff for money. Charon, winged dude

Hug me please! I luv u!

Hug me please! I luv u!

So yes. I’m full of love. Things have resolved themselves nicely or at least as well as can be hoped. Even though email was my personal bane (Grrr! Important things should get delivered!) for the last week, finally things are looking up. =D

Sorry if I’m all secretive about the cool things happening right now. I expect at any moment they will be taken from me or they will go bad. Note that some of the things I was trying did end up that way. Sigh.

So anyway, I think I’m suppose to talk about the picture… maybe…

Here is The Kid. He loves you so much it hurts. Literally. Please give him a hug. Snicker. =)

Drawn by hand from looking at an ad of a teeny tiny kid holding out a remote… looked nothing like said ad after he was drawn. Colored in PhotoShop 7 with someone else’s custom brushes.

The Kid luvs you! Give him a hug!
