Art and stuff

18th June - 24th June

This week has been all about plush making! I got the fabric and really dove into it.

I finished off the Second Citadel stickers from last week. That's a lot of flowers....

And the sketchbook stuff:

June 11th - June 17th

After watching a few youtube vids, I've decided I wanna try make my own plushie, as you do. So I designed this little pal based off some old sticker sketches of mine. Meet Bad Apple!

And a close up of their back patch, which I'm thinking of getting made into a proper patch as well at some point?

Also drew up some new die cut sticker designs, the first couple pulled from some old sketches (the same ones my plush came from) plus a soup cat. Cat soup. Sat Coup.

Soup cat!

Also some Second Citadel stickers for my own joy. Circle stickers are less expensive in small quantities so maybe I'll make these freebies some day.

Some fanart for Smile for Me, a cool little game I played this week!

I had a get together with a bunch of illustrator pals from uni, which was a good night of just chatting and sketching. Good times!

And the rest of my sketchbook for this week:

Following Chromacon and crunching to finish my comic, my wrist is feeling uhhhh a little bad!! So this week I decided to give myself a break and specifically not draw much.

Starting off the week with a quick silly sticker:

And a mini print I started earlier. I might make this a linocut? It's lacking a texture or something right now.

And a little bit of sketchbook doodling to finish off, mostly planning new things to draw later like wood pins and zines.

Graduating and Chromacon!

In a very busy series of days, I graduated, then flew to Auckland, tabled at Chromacon for two days, and then flew home. Whew!!!

Week 21 - nothing but comic

28th May - 3rd June

As Chroma draws near I mostly just wanna finish this comic, so that's basically where this entire week went.

A couple of sketches, including the sticker designs for Blaire's bat:

And I finished it! I feel like some of the later pages could have been better, but you live and learn. I still think it's a good little comic and I'd rather move on and complete another comic than go back and keep tweaking this one.

Aaaand the finished book! The night before my flight haha....

Week 20

May 14th - May 20th

Starting off the week with some goofy fanart

Still working on the new comic, which is most of my life at this point. Here's some cute faces!

Done up the digital sketches for my next two sticker sets: orcs and goblins! I'd like to get them done before Overload, but we'll see how that goes haha.

Aaaand sketchbook stuff. Been thinking about making lino cut patches... or really just linocut in general haha.

Week 19 - Planning planning planning

May 7th - May 13th

I did the 'Draw Your Friends' OCs in Your Style' meme on twitter to warm myself up for digital art over this week and last, featuring a bunch of my pals' cute OCs who I love.

I've still been working on this comic. Mostly sketching, and also finishing up the thumbs for the action section.

I also sketched out some designs for more fantasy face stickers, this time orcs! Hopefully I'll finish these and a tiefling set before Chromacon.

And I randomly got some inspiration for some "This is not a game" jam games. I put them on the back burner before I got to the the art parts, but I'll probably pick them up later. One is a kinda sad space themed thing, and the other is a dice 'game'.
