One reason why I've not been uploading, either, was because I'd spent my weekends scouring for materials with which to make a friend two headpieces for Juliette et Justine's September tea party, one of which will be epic.

Headdress I:




Headdress II:



Guess which of them the epic one is!

More pictures when they're done and ready to be shipped.

My femmy, clean-shaven boys

I finally got a little time off tonight. Felt like doing something relaxing, so I did some colour sketches for a bunch of male characters. These are two of the shaved guys; the unshaved guys are in another pile, along with the shaved guys I'm still not that pleased with. Vector is the most developed of the designs -- you saw that rather sad early example in that late January post. 





I'm not that used to drawing men yet, sigh. Silver-hair below is meant to be femmy-looking, but he came out looking like a rabbit. He needs to look more dangerous, because he is.






You wouldn't think they were related. The only things that are visibly similar about them is their eye colour and chinline. Gervain's mother came from a rather bleached race.


Hopefully I'll have enough time left over from social duties and work do to more next week, but there's no guarantee now. I'll try my best, at any rate. I'm getting assessed by my bosses in three days, first thing in the morning!! Argh. 

Fruit tree fresh

A few days late this time, but here's a sketch I made recently while waiting for a course to start. The subject matter is the sum of my group's conversation over the few minutes it took to put this on paper.


...and this, boys and girls, is the origin of orange juice.

Be back with more stuff this week.
