Miss Evie

So lately I've been doing some of theses art meme things. Which basically are these little things where you follow instructions and make your character(s) do or appear how it says. It's good practice I suppose. So I've only done a couple of them so far but thought I would throw them up here: My characters right after their alarms go off in the morning: Yep. I will probably do a blog introducing who my characters are for those who don't know. But I haven't really extensively started putting my comic up yet. But here's a quick once over: Name and relationship to Evie. Rt to Left: Maddie Artis (neighbor/friend), Project Mayhem ( Pearl's cat), Evie Spooks, Pearl Brinkly (best friend/housemate), Miles Artis (neighbor/friend/Maddie's brother), Cash (childhood friend/housemate), Lilith Synder(friend), And Chompton (her pet....creature)

I need to start working on this again, considering every aspect of these characters is fully planed in my head. I need to start putting them out on paper.

May the new year be artsy!

So it's a new year. Bah. But so far this year I have been making a point to draw more, and by more I mean daily. The artwork from this year has already piled up on my computer so I thought I would dump some of it on here for people to see. I don't feel like flooding my deviantart (http://sammicula.deviantart.com/) with all this. I've been a bit disenchanted with that website lately since it seems to be flooded with fangirls and people that don't understand the difference between tastefully done nude photography and taking a picture of your boobs with your webcam. Not to say there isn't good art on that site, there is. I still frequent the site, I just don't post much anymore. The idea of making my own website for the purpose of dumping all my artwork on is a distinct possibility. The only large hindrance being that I know nothing about creating a website. But anywho- here's the latest from this year:

Breaking in new pens. I felt wrong buying pens that said 'manga' on them, but I wanted some felt tips and as you can see I clearly didn't draw any manga with them:



Different pens and pencil shading stuff. You know, my usual. I can't decide if i like the background color on this first one:



Bought some watercolor paints. Was kind of testing them out, I haven't used them in years. Probably not since I was in high school. So I'm pretty rusty to say the least:







And finally, a dash on nonsense:


Let me know what you think. And I think I made it so you can comment directly on here without having to have an account. I may try to do this blog thing on a weekly basis from now on. Fill it full of sketches and doodles and ramblings and whatnot. Next time I may put some Evie stuff I've built up.

:) Stay Slunchy
