Forgot I made this a while ago, and I realized I had wanted to post it at some point. I’m lame like that, posting things for my non-published story.  I just like these guys too much.

In terms of my story, don’t take this too seriously. I just did this for fun.


And poor Indira’s name got cut off. The woman can’t catch a break.

I love Paper Mario, and I started playing it again yesterday, and, because I love the bosses of each chapter, I began drawing each of them after I beat them. Yesterday was the Koopa Bros., and today I made Tutankoopa.

Paper Mario has always been my favorite game, and I started playing it again for the first time in a loooong time. I have always loved the bosses (aside from Huff N. Puff), and I got the spontaneous urge to draw the Koopa Bros. after I beat them. Maybe I’ll continue this with a drawing of each boss after I beat them. We’ll see.

Joe from Digimon Adventure keychain! I’m showing the process I went through to reach the final stage. This was a commission by http://josephmkernillustration.tumblr.com/.

Totally love Joe. He was one of my favorite DigiDestined.

Chosen Elements Sketch Dump 4
View Post
I’ve been in the hospital recently recovering from appendicitis (no fun). To keep myself entertained and sane in between the loads of work I’ve been doing to try and keep up with school (no rest at all!), I threw together this collection of my most recent sketches. Now, let’s see if I can label these nicely.
 Top to Bottom, Left to Right: Row 1: Caleb Adar, Older Nina, Kiora and Amar signing to each other, Kasimer just grinning, General Apollo, Enitan and “The God”, startled Elssa, Isabella in winter wear. Row 2: Ellie showing her sass, Pierre and “The Doctor”, Carson and Willy playing some basketball, Younger and Present Harvey, Kendra and “The Priest” Row 3: Kasimer and “The Lady”, Lucky drinking some wine, Colonel Skullripper, Makan and “The Viper”, Blaze and Caleb, Draco looking rather hunched, Alissa commenting on clothing, Aria showing off her style. Row 4: Luxuria drinking some wine, Romney sharing a beer with Sho, Alex, Shadowstrike, Nina and her pal Crushjaw, Aura looking unsure, Older Roy. Row 5: The Original Chosen (Indira, Kasimer, Enitan, Kendra, Pierre, Makan, and Drifa), Aria and Ted, Aria and Nina ready to go out for fun, Indira and “The Goddess” Row 6: Blaze in a swimsuit, Elssa just relaxing, Freeze being Freeze, Alissa, Sho commenting on his lack of good humor, Kianga, Isabella looking ready to go. Row 7: Romney and Brittany about to crash into Nina and Terrance (everyone except Brittany is so startled), Indira in Indian dress, little chibi Kasimer, Kiora the Savant of Australia, Drifa and “The Vassal”, Kimoni the Savant of Africa, Makan and Aria.
Back to work and recovery now!

Death of Pride Finished.

I’m working on building demo reels for internships and jobs once I graduate, so I have been focused on working on both animation and art.

If anyone wants the backstory or an explanation for what’s happening, feel free to ask. However, I find it’s far more interesting to give less and let the viewer interpret the piece in his or her own way.
Next up is a keychain commission of Joe from Digimon!

I love playing with age concepts for characters. This odd assortment is for the SSD, my mercenary characters. The top row is meant to portray them when they first entered the elite team, and the bottom is meant to portray them as they appear in the present.
Left to Right: “Lucky”, Ted, “Shadowstrike”, Harvey “Spitter”, “Freeze”, “Luxuria”, and Caleb.
In terms of appearance, everyone went through some sort of change. Freeze actually cleaned himself up, Luxuria and Caleb lost some clothes, Ted and Shadowstrike covered more of themselves, Harvey really let himself go with age, and Lucky just changed suits. These shifts in appearance also are meant to hint at their shift in personality.
