Random - Been a while..

Eesh. haven't updated this in a bit that I almost forgot what username to sign in on this. Not good. D|

The summer's been pretty slow for when it comes to art in general. I got sidetracked with some new videogames as of late, so hopefully that'll spark up some inspiration, no?

Aaaaaanyway, since I don't want to leave this post empty-handed, I'll put some works in progress I'll probably finish in some time:

First, some Bioshock fanart in progress. I got an XBox 360 as of recently and this was one of the first games I've been wanting to play. I may be acquiring a copy soon, though let's see how I fare with horror-based first person shooter. |D Regardless, I love the design concepts from this game, even though Big Daddies can be a royal pain to get right - especially the Bouncer designs. Planning to do this one in my openCanvas painterly style.

This... is a bit of a different turn for my art. I plan to make this one my new ID over on DA, or maybe just a stand-alone. Either way, I normally never drew people like this. XD I think it's the lips. I think my art professor beating his realism lessons into me are coming back subconsciously. Still have a bit to work on with this one - but this would be myself on any long trip in a vehicle. I'd pretty much be staring out the window blankly into the passing scenery. (Which is pretty common when we'd have to drive from Pennsylvania to Jersey and back for family meets and the like.)

Aaaand that's it for now. Jeez, I gotta draw more. :I

Random - Character bits and bobs

Well, for this, I don't really have art that can be completely CATEGORIZED properly per se, but I have a couple sketches this day. <3

The first is another fancharacter from my aforementioned friend's race, serving as a sentry/war-drummer. She's fairly new and goes by the name of Nakoda. Her design also underwent a couple minor changes to have it fit with that race's continuity. Not sure how I'll implement her as a character yet, but hey, having to keep watch constantly wouldn't be... exactly fun. |D; (And the red stuff is warpaint. She also has a drum baton wrapped in her tail so she could beat the drums, nyaaaah.)

The second is actually something from a race of mine, the Tachmallu - which are a race of squid-based humanoids with an affinity for music. (More information will come on them in another post, since they're one of the sentient races in HatU) This particular one was designed as another NPC for another friend's campaign, going by the name of Tennant. He, along with his four siblings, run a chain of stores known as the Oceanus Co., selling goods and novelties from all over the universe, including goods from their home planet. Not sure yet if I'll have the Oceanus Co. integrated into the plot of HatU yet, but there'll be time to decide. Hopefully the DM will like NPCing them out.

The last image is the logo of their store sign. |D Another friend of mine helped me design it out. Desupuuuuuus. When all the other siblings are finished, I might post them up and explain a bit more about 'em.

Kind of blegh tonight. Like.. in the mood to draw more tonight, but not sure what. But I suppose this suffices for now.

EDIT: The Barbarian chick's name is now Nakoda. For some reason... it seems to fit. |D
