Donut drawing

Drew this at a donut shop this morning

Sweatshirt

I came across a cute little detail in this weeks "It's not my Fault that I'm not Popular" where Tomoko goes to this summer event, wearing clothes that a probably way to warm for the occasion.

It's a charming irony of wearing heavy clothing to hide yourself, and then becoming even more uncomfortable and self conscious because of how sweaty it makes you.

Brian breaking through delusion

I'm getting as far as I thought I would on this project.

Hopefully I'll be able to flesh most of it out by the time summer break starts. Then I can finish it over that point.

Attatchment

I got locked out of my house once, and had to climb through the window to get back in. The window frame dug into my leg as I climbed over, there was barely enough room for me to get through, and I barley avoided bashing my head against the dresser before I finally got in. I think that's something people don't take into account when they say that god opens a window whenever he closes a door.

So when a door is closed on me, even when it's slammed shut, I don't look for a window. Even when a thousand windows open around me, I stand at the door hoping it will open again soon. And I'll scratch at the door like a dog that doesn't know he's been abandoned.

I was nothing but a dog through that whole relationship. Just a stupid puppy that spilled my heart out to her the moment we met. And it's not like I didn't hold back either, there was a whole torrent of emotions I was holding back on. I'm so used to having to force my emotions out too. It was an amazing frustration having to hold them back for once.
It wasn't perfect. There were a lot of problems, but she was too nervous to bring them up, and I was to naive to notice them. I'm not gullible, but when I love someone I think the very best of them for as long as I can, even to to my own detriment.

That's how I wound up where I was back in march. I've been doing my best to move on and I've opened up to a great many people

...but I still keep my eye on that door.


Update:
Finally moved away from that door.

Less is more

Today I took the concept that drawings look more feminine when less detail is used, and decided to draw a woman using as few penstrokes as possible, while still making it recognizable.

The legs turned out pretty well I think. I could have manages this with even less lines, but I like the result I have.

Now we're making progress!

And my next final assignment in the class can be accomidated to finish this one.

The other students made some pretty great videos too. I'd have to get their permission to share them, though, So I'll only ask if you guys want me to.

Sketches! That's what your here for, right?

Today we have some Concept sketches for Magic 8 Ball Girl. It's the next best thing to the comic actually updating.

This is a dress I saw recently in the movie "A Single Man". It works really well for Stacie Spades. I wish I'd seen the movie earlier, It's a little late to put it in the comic.

Here's a Cyclops. He's not in magic 8 ball girl, but I didn't feel like rearranging the pictures today.

Also it gives these two something to get scared about.

I had 3rd Arc planned for Magic 8 Ball Girl, but I'll be lucky to finish the current one. It would have called for Ada getting a new design looking something like this (probably a little less Busy, though).

And this is just me as a kid.
