This one started as me just trying out the head with the rabbit hood on it. By the time I'd finished it, I realized that I have more than half of the components for this outfit, though it would be all black and dark blue. For those wondering: I'd still need the bunny hood, the geta and the black ribbon.
Oh, and I know the neck is way too long. If anyone's got Photoshop skills, would they kindly cut it down so the cheeks are part way inside the collar.
@Omnutia: Is this a design for a costume, then? Is it something already out there, or something of your creation? Your drawing is getting better, I think. Aside from the neck, which you know, the only other big issue I see is that the arms are a bit short. However, I did have a boss who had arms like that. Tyrannosaurus arms. They barely came past her waist.
Okay, so these are some tryout pages I just finished. I'll know in a week or so if I got the gig. Kind of a crappy tryout script -- mostly talking, all in the same location, but hey, I got to draw a dinosaur, which I've never really done before, and a kitty, which I've also never really done before. They're not great, but I think they're passable. What I learned from this is that when I have to design stuff (spacesuits, space golf cart, sci-fi corridor) I need to really work out every detail, because even if it takes me a couple more hours up front, it's going to save me a lot of time and headaches down the road. Man I wish I'd done something different for that floor. Anyway.
@Funfetus: One of these days, I'll plan a drawing and not just spontaneously grow large sketches from small doodles. Expect a pretty major improvement when or if that time comes. It was just an experiment making a costume out of things I like.
For my next doodle, I'm torn between moe tsundere Nineless with maid outfit or standard tsuntsun cat ear Nineless. Edit: Speak of the devil.
space + dinosaurs + kitty
I left the "= awesome" off in an effort to point out that a simple description of the above section of comic is all you need.
Thanks, guys. Unfortunately, I can't take credit for any of the ideas -- it was all in the script for me.

You know, probably 99% of the drawing I've done in my life has been little doodles -- bits of anatomy, little perspective experiments, THOUSANDS of heads. It's a pretty good way to work out the things you need to improve on without the grunt work of putting together a full illustration. Obviously you need to bring it all together occasionally, but I think the doodle time, if done with a goal of improvement in mind, is time very well spent. Of course, when you are going to do a serous illustration, you really have to plan it out.
Funfetus, and Mankoon, your work is totally faboo. I particularly love that "fishy character." I need to work harder. Here's my first post--I hope you guys don't mind that it's fanart--it's just the most recent/best thing I have. It is for my fiancee, Judith, and fault of Rym. We borrowed his Utena DVDs.
Wow! I wouldn't of thought that was fan art! I would think a scan from an artbook! Amazing!
When I first saw it in the Otakon art show, I also thought it was just a scan/print from an artbook. I was like wtf. Then someone said something, and I was like, oh shit! I remember them working on that in my living room.
@Nillia- Wonderful piece! It's so really dead on. I like the black shading on the blue coat too. It looks really proffesional - I really hope you post more =D. @Omnutia- That's really cute. It makes me laugh cause he's just a head and a tail and I'm not sure what he's expressing. Pain maybe? He seems like he could be a maple story enemy or something.

I wanted the roads to look like a real map of a city. Hope I didn't loose too much detail by not urning into a giant png.
@Jain7th: I don't think I get it.

... No, whilst really freaking awesome, we can't do that. We musn't.

I guess this is a self-portrait sans glasses. Quick photoshop sketch which I decided to upload for no particular reason.
Also, I'm going to start selling tentacle necklaces if anyone is interested.
No, just kidding. Looks pretty good.
I need to work harder.

It's you it's you it's you!
I need to talk to that cell phone guy again. I have his email. He's intrigued.
Based on my cat. Not really worth critting as it's still very early days with me and digital drawing.

Yes, I'm here now! =D Thank you.
Yes, cellphone guy...I'm sorry I don't remember his name. But it sounded really neat, from what I gathered.
@Apreche
Hahahahah, that's what I was going for. That's awesome. Thank you.
@ Everybody
Thank you for the warm welcome!
@Omnutia
Ahaha! I see it. I like how you fussed with the eyes, though.
You know, they actually make a purse version of "Catbag."
For Lisa! Happy 26th! Here's a sketchy picture of your kitties!
Sorry for the incredibly shoddy scan, but I sorta like how it sepia-toned it.
