Just a tad late in the day.

Yup, that's it.

NOTE TO GWYNN: I'll be putting up your lady soon, this week's been a mess.

Some sketches again

No comic today, but enjoy some sketches made today in my darling little moleskine!

 

Just some studies of Zana & Kaelen back in the day/beginning of the story they're in.

I like the dress & the shapes associated with it, very smooth.

Anyways, sorry for no comic, but it's a busy night of homework, and I just don't have the time for that and sleep tonight. I'll make Friday a double update to make up for today!

And now if you will excuse me, I have to go power walk to pick up the ringing house phone.

[insert title that makes sense]

It's very weird how that happens, but without fail, during any high or low pressure system I'm in annoying joint pain. I must be getting old.

I almost didn't make a comic today, but I just took an Alieve, picked up my pencil, and went for it anyways. By the time I'd started coloring the pain was gone.

P.S.- HAPPY BIRTHDAY HERMIONE!!!

NEW FINELINERS + A double update

1.) I love Autumn! A whole lot of fantastic things happen in fall, plus it's just super pretty. I liked the coloring in this one.
2.) I WAS GIVEN BRAND NEW PRISMACOLOR FINELINERS!!! By Jim Middleton, my very cool animation teacher who has taught me more things than I could possibly type up here. I used them on both of today's comics, and they draw like a dream. So fantastic, I love them. You all should check out Jim's animation/drawings/interesting-facts-about-so-many-things blog, Animating Apothecary. Link here: http://animatingapothecary.blogspot.com/ Too many neat things there like, currently, a celebration of the amazing Michigan animator Winsor McCay (creator of the Little Nemo comics, Gerty the Dinosaur, and all sorts of illustrated and animated wonder).
3.) Those Zana sketches I put up the last post are already out-dated. I cleaned them up, figured out and added a functional harness for the the prosthetic, and am currently in the process of coloring.
4.) GETTING A COLD. That sucks D:

Character Study: Zana's prosthetic leg

I CUT HER LEG OFF OMG:

My original character Zana (and Kaelen in the 1st picture). I've been hashing out this idea since last night, and I think it's coming out great. I don't plan this happening until the end of her story (whenever or whatever that is, lol), but I do plan on having her live through it without getting some kind of infection & dying. I like her too much! :C

No comic today because I'm too swamped in homework. I've got just enough time to throw this up here before I need to get back to math. Le sigh. But here, for your enjoyment, are my own character notes to myself.

I like the outfits I make for her.

-Sami

p.s.- Zana, Kaelen created soley from my own imagination, they be mine.

Serious, check the link below.

The promised link to all things Nerdfighteria: http://www.youtube.com/user/vlogbrothers#p/u/0/FyQi79aYfxU

John & Hank Green describe it a lot better than I can, so why don't I just leave it to them? All I can say is that being introduced to the Nerdfighting community via the Vlogbrothers (John & Hank) has been one of the most inspiring and intellectually/hilariously stimulating experiences. I love watching their videos and all the interaction.

-Sami

I'm cool with that.

Money is nice, too, but I'm cool with my friends wanting to give me food or snacks in exchange for a drawing or two.

Whoa, I'm on a roll with updates!

-Sami

Just made it! Literally.

 Seriously, I am. It's a paper that's due tomorrow, and I'm one paragraph in. Le sigh.

I'm going to keep up with these updates. Bear with me the crappy short ones like this.

-Sami

Or not.

Class is back in session. Somehow I'll figure out how to get back into the swing of updating.

I'm going to be channeling Hermione this semester. Wish me luck!

-Sami

P.S.- I GAVE UP ALGEBRA HOMEWORK TO DO THIS! What a way to start the semester, lol.
