Vampirella

You know something? I have never drawn Vampirella. I've never even sketched her....ever! So, i felt, with it basically being October now, that it was time to give it a shot! Not only that, but this is the first completed drawing that i've done since my hand injury. It took a little while, but it's something right?

On a side note, my art page on Facebook has magically disappeared! I don't seem to be the only victim, as quite a few other pages that i'm a fan of are missing as well! What the @#@#

(EDIT: Apparently, my art page is back now. Facebook is quite the moody little thing)

Lucky there's a Family Guy.

More oldies!

This were supposed to go in this year's sketchbook as well, but i didn't have room for it. I tried drawing specific cartoon characters in my own style just to see how they would turn out. I wasn't too happy with the results, but i guess its a good start to trying something different for a change...

Hand Update: The hand is doing a bit better. I still hurts like crazy when I life or do anything that applies any real pressure to it BUT i'm actually able to start sketching now. I can't draw over long periods of time just yet, but i am making progress here!

Thanks to everyone out there who showed concern about it! I really appreciate it :-)

The Mistress of UltraPrison

Third on the list is a lesser known character from Adult Swim's Superjail, the Mistress of UltraPrison. I admit, i'm not specifically a fan of SuperJail, but thought that she would be an awesome character to at least sketch out. That rough sketch turned into the rough drawing that you see right here. I did this months ago, around the same time the Eris and Lindsay drawings. Originally, for my sketchbook this year, i was going to have a least two pages of miscellaneous Cartoon Network characters in a model sheet type of drawing. That never panned out (due to my slowness), so half of the drawings are still sitting here in my computer just waiting to be colored.

Ms. Selina Kyle

Next up is Ms. Selina Kyle, a.k.a. Catwoman. I swear, i must have at least 5 unfinished Catwoman pieces floating around here at my desk, but this had to be my favorite (hence why it's colored now. lol).

Marvel Girl

So, while the old hand is healing up, i thought i should start coloring the numerous amount of drawings that i have laying around and scanned into my computer. First up is the uncanny Marvel Girl herself, Jean Grey. This has to be one of my all time favorite costumes in comics. I mean if you think about it, Jean Grey has had a few of the coolest costumes in comics, especially this one and her Phoenix/Dark Phoenix costume. It's too bad that she has died more times in comics than there are Police Academy movies. Hopefully, Marvel will bring her back into mainstream comics again in the near future.

On a side note, did anyone pick up the X-men Legacy Annual that came out this past week? I have to say that Rogue's new costume is a definite A+ in my book! Maybe i just have a thing for scarves. I will say that when my hand heals up, that it will most defintely have to be put into a drawing!

Injury! Injury!

My apologies for the lack of updates lately. A few weeks ago, i was helping a friend move and had a little accident. During the move, a couch was dropped and landed on my left hand...my drawing hand at that! Hoping that it wasn't fractured or broken, i went to get an x-ray last Thursday. Turns out that nothing is broken or fractured, but the bones and muscles in my hand are just bruised really bad. My entire hand just feels stiff, sore, and achy, like its aged 20 years right before my eyes. It's getting better but it just feels like it's taking forever! lol It hurts to draw right now, so i'm just taking it easy. It sucks though, because after going to Dragon*Con this year, i have a severe itch to draw like crazy (as well as projects to finish).
