Body Positivity!

(Click the pictures for larger view)
I've been feeling in a summer-y mood lately, and I wanted to draw cute bathing suits after I went looking through my old drawings. I love drawing differnt body types, and the top picture is one of my favourites I've done in a while.

I am going to start updating this blog again. I am 19 now and I've been practicing drawing for a few years. I may not be amazing; I need some art classes and some more knowledge of anatomy and the human form, but I'm working on getting better.

Recently, I have been post in gym art to Facebook, but I want it in one place where people can see it.

This picture is one of my characters. A hunter, dubbed "Little Red Riding Hood" by her companions and the other hunters who go with her. It took me forever to draw this. I am horrible at drawing hands on hips. I went through Google images to see some examples, but I still feel like it looks weird. I love her face and hood here.

Patient #305891

Hey, I'm here with another drawing I did the other day. :) I'm pretty proud of it 'cuz I drew and colored a background. It also has a good cerebral feel about it, I guess. :)

A little info about the character: He is a mental patient who suffers from severe hallucinations. I'm sure he's taking medication for it, but I think he still has the hallucinations.

More Pictures!!!!

Here's a super creepy drawing I just did! :D It's supposed to kind of be like the Looking Glass, mixed with the Cheshire Cat.

Enchanment

Look! Background!
Last night, i was thinking about a drawing I drew, with a mermaid and a human/sailor.

So, I started to draw a version of that, and it turned out pretty good, so i started to draw a background. Then, I drew the details... etc.

So yeah. If you are reading this, please comment. Is there anything wrong with it? I would really appreciate constructive criticism.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Okay, so my brother needed a Valentine's Day card for his class, so I drew one for him and colored it in the same night. Also, I colored a Light Yagami drawing I did. He is from the anime Death Note. Also, there is this voice synthesizing program called Vocaloids, and I drew the character Kaito from it. I really like the Valentine's day one. I think it came out pretty good.

I made up this character the other day, and was able to do the line art and color him before I got bored! Which happens a lot... Oh well! I drew this, and I really like this picture. It just shows me how good I've gotten since I first started drawing. :)

I just drew a chibi on Photoshop, and I am so proud of it! I didn't use a skeleton, and I'm glad I didn't. It seems that whenever I try to do something really simple with a skeleton, it always turns out badly. Anyway, I drew and colored it in probably an hour, and that's pretty good.

My YouTube video

I made a YouTube video! It is cool. Please check it out at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRzoY5XZrKg.

It's funny though how my eraser seems to magically jump from the table to my hand and back again. :) A picture was taken every 5 seconds, for a total of 646 pictures. It is amazing how fast it goes, with only 10 frames per second!

More Manga

Sorry, I haven't been posting as often, I just got caught up in schoolwork. Anyway, Over Christmas break, I got Manga Studio Debut 4.0. It is the best! I had a problem at first with trying to get my wacom tablet to work with it, but I changed the layout to pen, instead of mouse, and now it works fine. :) Anyway, here is a manga that I drew a few nights ago. It isn't perfect (which is what photoshop is for), but hey, at least I drew a background. I am actually happy with it.

Also, I got Fruits Basket and Yotsuba &! Which are really good Mangas. They are both read the traditional Japanese way too. Americans would call it "backwards" :) Anyway, I needed a bookmark, so I drew a little manga to sit on top of the bookmark. It is pretty cool. I also drew that girl with the headphones. I named the picture headphones_girl . jpg. How creative is that right?
