Sketch 77 - Hot Steps

Been doing some painting recently and its so nice to do some traditional work again. Although the sad part is I don't get to keep the originals *cry*. So this one is a picture of Isaac's sister Emily. She doesn't dance anymore so I was commissioned to do a picture for her. I absolutely love how it turned out. I am impressed with myself. So now I have to finish Warren's birthday picture and then get some tattoo sketches drawn up for Saturday, possibly doing 3-4 on Saturday and the window painting that I didn't do today to do tomorrow at the Esso. SOOO BUSY. But its nice because its not stuff thats hurting my side too much.

Also I did Kayla's tattoo today instead. We were messing about and LA Ink came on TV and I was all like ... "lets do yours. RIGHT NOW :D" and shes all like "OMG ok!" and yeah. She squealed she was so happy haha. So after this crazy weekend I still have to work the holiday Monday. At least they were nice enough to pay us a day early so I can put my check in the bank and finally pay my bills. Been stretching my money out as long as I can because I cant work as much from my pain. Anyways should probably get more painting done.

Goodnight world! Love ya <3

Sketch 55 - An Angel Among Us

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!! So yeah I'm sorry this is an older sketch but its one that most haven't seen. Its the original concept sketch for Nanako in my Pyowaan story. She is a fire angel and unlike her friend Anna who actually starts with the angels, she starts in the desserts and lives among the villages of anthro races until she is reunited with her friends.

So my new job starts tomorrow. I have to get up before 6am uhhg. Oh well the pay is well worth it and getting up that early will hopefully make the day go by faster. I want to give a shout out to a new friend of mine Jake Bailey who has lent me his Japanese copy of Legend of Dragoon game (which ive mentioned in a previous post that I have been wanting to play again!). So cool! Now I don't have to by it and I can refine my Japanese reading abilities while playing. He has also lent me a Japanese PSP game called Monster Hunter Portable, which as he warned me is very addictive! By looking at the back and seeing the graphics for a hand held it looks frikken amazing!

Anyways it is getting late and I need to make my lunch for tomorrow and get to bed. Good night world! Love you <3

Sketch 27 - Right On the Mark

This is the new concept for Nynde. This one took longer to plan out then Purtalic's. Had to put a bit more thought into this one because of her childhood she is in battle a lot as an archer. Plus I was trying to go for more coverage and functionality. Also for her being half demon and dragon-ling I decided to give her red eyes like her father. I think it suits her better.

Today has been an odd day. Got up, did about 2 hours of dishes, then worked on art, then volunteer appreciation dinner and then home to finish sketch and relax. So soon will be the relax part I hope lol. It's been a long day! Tomorrow Im gonna try the Zumba class at my gym. Looks interesting. Well gonna keep this one short. Goodnight world! Love ya <3

Sketch 16 - Demonic Romance

Pyro. A high demon from Eeres. The story of how Purtalic and Pyro met is a near-death survival romance that ended in an amazing union. From there he becomes the soul partner of Purtalic and helps govern the North. He ends up fathering a daughter and son and survives the great war.

This picture is so hawt... if I may say so lol. Ah Pyro. He has some reason to believe he has a little dragon-ling blood in him but its not enough to make a difference. Well as his name suggests he is a fire demon. Thinking about this, me being Purtalic and all.... I don't rule over the fire element yet a lot of my characters are fire elemental ... go figure. Its okay though. MBJ has characters that are under my elemental governing muhahahaha. I spent a lot of time on this picture today. I had to re-do his outfit a lot. Pyro was the 3rd favorite character for the fan-art contest as well.

Tomorrow I have an eye exam and hope to get some contacts again... FINALLY.  Also I have two viewers from Ireland. I don't know anyone from Ireland so this is cool. Hello out there! Hope you liked what you saw/read. This really is exciting. I have a lot of viewers from China as well. Anyways, in other news my cousin Kelly will be arriving for a visit on Friday (hopefully with his gf!) This will be awesome! Also my cousin Alex will be coming for a visit in April sometime. Can't wait. So far I have a lot of people wanting tattoos from me but no one is making dates to do them ... *cries* lol j/k but still come on people!

Love ya <3

Sketch 12 - Mage Twirl

Talema Komi. Kigano Komi's (yesterday's picture) little sister. She is another of the very few humans. Unlike her sister though, Talema can use the forces of magic and specializes in the fire element like her sister. At a young age of 10, she is at the same level as most tier 4 magic users but lacks the control needed. Her flame resistant robe has extended sleeves to cover the burns on her hand from excessive use.

I remember the day I created Talema. Her outfit sure changed over the years. I like where its at now though, got the whole "magical girl" thing going on. I've never been any good at drawing children, like men they tend to be plain in body shape and not much fun to draw. The idea came for this character when I was playing around with the personality of Kigano. Kigano has that cool babysitter vibe where she is nurturing and motherly but knows that play is top priority. She also has this protective side that made me think... what can we have her protect? Thats when MBJ created Kyos and Talema came to be.

Is anyone interested in my character things? Should I make a page and start writing out the story for people to read?

In other news~ Today is official 'quit my job' day for me. Very happy about it, gonna miss all my grandma friends and co-workers though. Planning on getting more eye contacts soon as well! Next week my trainer is gonna weigh me again to see how much I have lost....nervous lol. Oh and that new Sucker Punch movie came out today. SO wanna see it. I am also interested in maybe getting a Zune HD.... they are very shiny. I was considering the Barnes and Noble NOOK color e-reader tablet. But like the zune it is only sold in the USA... But now I've heard that Amazon is working on a color Kindle tablet e-reader so I am gonna wait for that so I can buy it here in Canada and use it ANYWHERE. It also looks shiny btw.

Anywho~ What is everyone up too? Love you all <3

Sketch 11 - Fire Demon

Contrary to the blog title, she is in fact a human. One of very few humans in M.E.D.E story. She is Kigano Komi. I have always loved this character for some reason and felt compelled to draw her today. Had a bit more time then normal to work on my 'sketch' today so it doesn't really look like a sketch minus the lack of shading. Her element (if you haven't already guessed) is fire, and she may not be able to cast it due to her being human, she is able to harness it in her bullets made for her alchemically altered pistols.

I think I might draw one of my characters everyday until I gain more suggestions from people. How does that sound? LOL well too bad. Until I start seeing comments with suggestions you will start seeing more and more of my characters. Muhahahahahaha! Hahaha I am in a good mood today. Finally quit my job. I will miss all the friends I made but me quitting doesn't mean I am banned from going and playing bingo. If you actually read my blogs could you post where you are from (just country). Or feel free to post a comment on facebook or twitter!

Love you all <3
