BOREDOM plus RGB COSPLAY plus WAY TOO MANY OUTFITS equals

Well, I’m not actually too sure what it equals, but I do have one question to ask…

Does this dress make me look fat?

Actually…

Red is a far better colour on me. Goes with my smile. Pity my shoes got cut out, I could kill a man in those heels. And still run rather fast, which suits me more anyway.

How about something more summery?

Nope, nope, that was a terrible idea. It’s bloody freezing today. No, seriously, it’s winter here. What on earth was I thinking wearing a summer dress and no shoes on tiled floors?

I’ll just huddle up in something warm for a while. Or maybe…

Something a bit differently dapper? Now all I’m missing is a tommy gun in a violin case.

Wait a second! Dial left his clothes lying around! I wonder…

NOPE NOPE NOPE THIS WAS A TERRIBLE IDEA WHY DID I DO THIS IT LOOKS HIDEOUS AND ALL FEELS SO WRONG.

I am incinerating this outfit first chance I get. That’s what you do with bio-hazards, correct? And with my cousin’s reluctance to bathe I’m certain these rags count as such.

Ugh, excuse me while I find a pool of bleach to wash off in. Fashion show’s over.

Farewell.

(*Gasp* ...My soulmate.)

I haven't updated in..... god knows how long. Probably since Halloween. But nice to see all these new followers. Hi there. I got a new graphics tablet. His name is Jerry. Figured I'd test him out by drawing some more Feathersby. Haven't quite figured the pressure sensitivity out yet, but hey I guess new things take time. I'll try and update more often, thanks for all being patient little jellybeans. University is a lot more work intensive than I realised. Really makes you forget about drawing for pleasure on the side.

I plan to do more cosplay photos tomorrow. If all goes well. I have to wait in all day for the electrics man, it's gonna be a long day, so I thought why not try to drag the TV head out of the attic and put on some more silly outfits. If anyone has any specific requests, now would be the time to ask.

I have so much real, important work to be doing. And yet somehow doodling just takes over. Wow I really thought the summer would be laid back and I could just draw and blog every day, but damn there's been so much client illustration work to do I've been completely swamped. Couldn't resist drawing s'more goofy animals though. I'd really love to write this stupid story one day, you know, have all the rest of my responsibility's just disappear and do whatever I want like everyone dreams of. This time I got around to doodling some of the other guardian dorks. There's twelve in all. One for each verse of Hickory Dickory Dock. Though whether I'll ever get around to sketching them all out I don't know. So now we have Feathersby the Owl, Henry the Mouse, Buttons the Bear, Bebe the Bee, and Corqurosse the Cat. (And Robert the snail. Not sure how he keeps working his way into these pictures). There's also the little Timeskeeper in there too. He still needs a name. I'm working on it. I could talk about them all day but I won't bore you with my ramblings. I'll try and update a little more whenever I can, but with work being crammed in and the summer coming to an end, everything is getting a little tense. So bare with me you wonderful followers. And thanks for reading.

I just got kissed by a moth. I was drinking orange juice. And this little moth flew in through the open window as they do all the time and landed on the counter next to me. So a dripped a little juice onto the counter next to it for it to drink. I didn't really know if moths drank juice, but you gotta offer you know. I didn't wanna be rude. So I sat for about five minutes sharing a late night juice break with this little yellow moth, who I decided to name Jasper. Then I finished and put my cup in the sink and he flew up and landed on my lips for a couple of seconds and then flew back off out the window.  In conclusion my first kiss has just been with a moth names Jasper.

...I started drawing a really serious book illustration of a moth for work last night. I'm not really sure how it ended up becoming Feathersby walking a snail....but there you go I guess. My mind wanders. Oh well it was a pretty good practice piece. As you can see, I'm a little addicted to this one particular photoshop brush. XD I have also decided to call the snail, Robert. He looks like a Robert. ...Enjoy.

...So here's the thing right. I made a printing plate and I didn't expose it to the UV for long enough and half the print kind of melted off when I was washing it because the surface hadn't hardened. But then, I decided, what the hell I'll print it anyway and see what it looks like. And I got this crazy as heck background. I mean, the print was of some people sitting in a line overlooking a river. But it ended up looking more like a burned up piece of film from hell. I wasn't really sure what to do with it, so I doodled a dark RGB over the top. It seemed fitting. Well I had a spare half hour and I was bored so. Yay for crappy doodling. Urgh. I made so many mistakes. And I'm too lazy to go back and fix them. So done. Too sleepy. Two more days until the school year is over. Whoopdy doo. The exhibition is going well so far by the way.
