Pixel Art Experiments

The result of some recent pencil brush experiments. At this point I'd found just the right settings to get these nice flowing lines and started drawing robot master faces. Then I thought, "Hey! These look nice and kind of artsy, let's try drawing robot faces in as few lines as possible! It'll look cool!"

Results were mixed. The ones I drew first are on the far right and it kind of worsens as you move left haha. Oh well, I love drawing faces anyway.

Characters belong to Keiji Inafune/Capcom.

Earlier work is considerably darker, hit the break if you dare...

Happy Not-Valentine's-Any-More!

So yeah I was gonna draw something funny for Valentines and this happened. I guess it's well enough, this was funnier than anything else I had in mind.

Though I got carried away with that second panel and took way too long and there's still lots of mistakes but ARGH WHATEVER
WHY CAN'T I DRAW GOOD
Oh well, problems are being worked on and I still had a nice Valentine's Day, went trail-walking with my mom and got some frozen yogurt on the way home, yum. And of course got some chocolates the day before.

(and yeah that's based on my current desk setup without the other top shelf and junk everywhere)

Cheers!

Some Snake Man Sketches

Forgot to post these here last night >_<



I think I promised here a long time ago I would make better Snake Man drawings, so uh, here they are. He IS my favorite robot master after all...
...but I'm a big reptile fan in general, so yeah...

He's a bit tricky to draw so I spent most of yesterday drawing him - or his head at least.
Was also experimenting with the Pencil tool in Photoshop, kinda fun to work with for me...
...or I might just be weird, since I also like using ballpoint pens when drawing on paper. >_>;

Right corner felt empty so I doodled in my cartoony-styled Snake Man, who looks too cute for his own good since in my headcanon he's essentially a huge troll. xD

None of these guys look consistent haha, but I like to experiment and I'll be damned if I fall into the Style Trap.

Lurking Around

So recently I've been hanging around deviantArt and Tumblr, browsing through artwork and funny posts for inspiration and such - unfortunately I'm rather shy and haven't really been communicating with people on these websites very much. I've only recently made accounts on those websites and started favoriting/liking things (many refer to this internet shyness as "Lurking")

I've got some ideas written down on things I can draw, mostly silly comics and jokes that I hope others will find funny as well. In that light, I may as well make the most of my natural awkwardness, and made sort of a persona character for myself:



A person in a box.
Well, I never said I was an expert in making original characters. 

At least it's simple and easy enough to draw. Here's some sketches - I have far to much fun drawing silly expressions and poses. =)


I might make a little flash animation of that sequence in the top left someday, just for fun.

Filler Dragon is there because that's what I draw when I can't think of anything else.

Everything here was drawn in Flash, by the way.

Cheers!
