Series WIP

So, I'm doing a six-piece series for my Drawing/Painting Research class. I've chosen to do something relating to my Grim series. It's not an official part of it, but I wanted to stay small since I'm on a time limit.
I'm using this as an excuse to study animals and skeletons too. Each animal is a symbol of Death in some way: Horse, Owl, Crow, Snake, and I'm still debating the other two (I have a list to choose from). I was going to take some elements from Susan Seddon Boulet, but the professor wasn't too crazy about it (she said the art was too much like "illustration"). So the backgrounds are staying blank for now until I figure something out.
I was a bit miffed about her comments on Boulet, but I still can appreciate her blunt honesty. She told me that she knew I could draw since I had two certain professors for Drawing I/II and Figgy Drawing and she basically forced me to sketch/gesture quickly this morning. I do have to admit that without her poking me, I'd probably still be stuck on lines. ^^; So, yay?
I've only worked on the horse, and it's not done, but it's coming out okay.


And this is just something from Figgy Drawing 2 yesterday. Her shoulder's a bit broad, but I still like it. :3

One More Day!

Yup, very happy that Doctor Who returns tomorrow, and I'm watching it and a concert with Miss Derrot. DATE NIGHT! At least I hope I am going to be online. The hurricane may give us some storms and my connection will turn to shit. D: *crosses fingers*

I'm currently thinking about what to do for my Painting/Drawing Research class. I want to create death masks (based on those found around the world) and fill their surfaces with "murals"/designs with my experiences with the subject matter. BUT I don't know if we can sculpt/build something and draw on it or if it has to be a flat surface, and the teacher didn't give us her e-mail so that I can ask and I'M FREAKING OUT.

Anyway, DW-related:

"Exclusive World Premiere Doctor Who ‘Motion Comic’ to accompany Saturday’s premiere of “Let’s Kill Hitler” on BBC America.


“Doctor Who” executive producer and showrunner Steven Moffat, who, along with the episode’s director Richard Senior, would have loved to have included a chase sequence during tomorrow’s episode of Let’s Kill Hitler involving lead characters Amy Pond (Karen Gillan) and Rory (Arthur Darvill) but they didn’t have the budget to shoot the additional scenes.
Instead it will be produced as a motion comic and shown exclusively as a “bridging scene” in between commercials during the premiere of “Let’s Kill Hitler,” Saturday August 27 at 9/8c on BBC America."
:D

If any Doctor Who fans haven't listened to Chameleon Circuit, I do recommend giving them a try. Some songs are a bit "eh," but there was still enough to hold my interest. My fave has to be "The Sound of Drums" (figures). Well, I think it's pretty. >.>


I found this to be amusing. Others probably have already seen it though (since I always enter fandoms late in the game, except PMMM). Tennant's face is priceless really, and he seems to be shocked that there are entire websites of Who Porn rather than the fact that it exists at all. <3
Both of his appearances on the show were cute. (2006 and 2008)

Other stuff:
MikeJ-"A British Person" His reenactments in Halloween 2007 are golden. :3

Because Allstate Mayhem is awesome! (all of them)


Stay safe, peeps!

10 More Days...

...until Doctor Who returns. Yep, I'm excited. :3 I want to see what the bloody hell is going on. >.>

Trailer (lol, dinosaurs)


Prequel/bridge between eps 7 and 8
If River is who she says she is, then that puts "Silence in the Library" in a different light. ):

Just a funny vid about a bird mating with a man's head. Hey, it's British so it kind of fits. :P
Witness the birth of 10's cockatoo hairstyle!

NaArMaMo Days 1 and 2

Off to an okay start, I guess.

Nothing is completed. Oh, I was aiming for some level of completion but then I got into an altercation with someone and it sucked out my creativity. So, this is just proof that I wasn't slacking(much) yesterday or today.

First are the semi-comic panels (yeah, such a thing doesn't exist, but just go with it) for the PMMM/DW crossover. They're really just little scenes/ideas which will be fleshed out at a later date.
Like I said, nothing is done or cleaned up, so, yeah. 8D


1. A scene where Mami and Homura bump into each other. Long story short, Mami is convinced that Master is a dirty old man who wants to get into Homura's knickers, so she knees him in the happy place. I had to stick in this cliche scene when I saw this gif:

I couldn't resist. :D

2. Doc 11 and Master chill out, watching...something. Probably a kid's show, since we know Master is fascinated by those (and thinks they're real, how sweet). What ARE kids watching these days anyway?

3. Couldn't fit this in, but Doc 11 is scanning Homura with his Screwdriver (after she stops trying to hijack the TARDIS, that is).

4. Mami and Doc 10 go into battle (this will be made bigger, and I hope it comes out awesome).

5. Kyubey takes a liking to Master. This meeting never happens; I just didn't know what to stick in that spot. 8D

6. You can't see the gun in Mami's hands, but it's there. She's suspended in midair and hanging onto it. She was fending off some sort of fiend who was bothering Martha and Donna, but the 10th Doc put a stop to her gunslinging, since he hates guns n' all. There's probably a panty shot. ACK!

7. Doc 10 inspects Mami's Soul Gem (and it feels "dirty" and weird to him).

And in the very middle circle are Homura's Soul Gem(or as I call it: "egg") and a Grief Seed. For the hell of it.

Next is a WIP of my Sophia and Jadine's Sofya, but you can't tell because nothing is there. :P It'll be filled in later. Hardy har har.


Last is a half-shaded Nozomi, Riyna's Puella Magi. I've been meaning to draw other peeps' PMMM OCs, but have fallen behind. I'm such a bad fan. D:

NaArMaMo

This!

I'm going to attempt this.

I have some comic panels/ideas for the PMMM/DW crossover done, but I don't feel like scanning right now. 8D

Anatomy studies and actors' face(s) studies are coming. Look at me, trying to be a SRS COMIC MAKER person thing.

Anyone care to join me in this monthly challenge?
