Cthulhu is Hard to Spell!
AHHH! My copy of the anthology “ Cthulhu is Hard to Spell” finally arrived. It printed beautifully! I can’t wait to sit down and read all of it this weekend, such a different experience than reading the PDF.
I am very VERY happy with how my comics cover pager printed out!
Sailor Pop Stars
I’ve been listening to the j-pop group BananaLemon and felt inspired to draw from their most recent video where they sing covers of hits from the 90’s and what could be more 90’s than Sailor Moon!
I just love BananaLemon’s outfits, so I dressed the Pretty Guardian up and had them pose like K/DA
But seriously, check out BananaLemon Newest video. The nostalgia is high!
If you have time check out my favorite video of their’s!
Also, I need to include that I was inspired by K/DA poses. Also, another video that is a must watch if you haven’t!
Time Beans Reworks
I still feel the originals had a lot of life though I’m very proud of my reworks. One thing to note, yes, all the characters were redrawn to look older because, uh they were/are. The characters are between 16-17 years old and I originally drew them looking more like 13 yrs old.
I can’t get over how pouty I made Blair the first time. She’s a character with a ton of spunk, energy and takes charge. But she also was a typical insecure teenager with a crush.
Hector didn’t change much in his redraw but to make him look cooler. He’s the older one in the group and relishes feeling cool among Blair and Dallas. Though, Hector isn’t as sure as he seems and can easy be pushed around. He really just wants to make others happy. My writer AJ related to Hector the most.
Dallas, I can expressed how happy I am with his redraw. I struggled so hard with his design and my redraw is always how I thought he would look. (It’s that hair man! Hard to draw back then). Dallas isn’t as sure as Blair of Hector and likes to follow the rules. He comes off as aloof but his skin isn’t as tough as he seems. Dallas was always the character I felt the most attached to.
Running Animation
A old animation I dusted off and had fun with the clean up animation.
It’s a work in progress (still having trouble with the timing and exporting correctly, ugh!) but I like how it’s turning out. I’ll see if I actually animate the rainbow skirt one day lol.
Time Bean Characters!
Here’s the main characters from the comic “Time Beans,” Blair, Dallas and Hector. I redrew from several year old sketches. I’ll post a comparison pic in the future.
When I first drew/created these character designs I wasn’t able to capture the characters as I had envision. Reworking the sketches was rewarding to finally see the characters as I always had pictured them.
