Hello hello!

I know, it’s been quite a while since I’ve posted to my blog here. I apologize for the delay: I have been working, in spite of a lull in commentary here. Dark Horse has been updating on it’s regular schedule, every Wednesday morning, and I’ve been posting a new revamped page to Act one at least once a week, although sometimes more 😀

And, I have been starting work on redoing Devil May Take You. Below are some sketches I’ve done trying to get back into drawing this one-shot comic.

Sarah, using technical pens and colored pencils. Darkened a bit on Imgur, as the scan kind of faded it out.

Larz I’ve changed to be a little more buff. I realize I almost exclusively draw skinny guys o_O It’s nothing personal, I just haven’t paid enough attention. So I’ve given him some muscles and will try to keep thinking about this when I re-draw some of the other male characters.

So yeah, things are moving along. We’ve relocated to a nice three story townhouse, and have a lot more space to work 😀 And, as an update on my lightbox: back in February my boyfriend got me an awesome LED box! It’s so thin! And you can adjust the level of light, which is kinda cool. So, I’ve had everything I need to get to work

Devil May Take You will begin sometime this year for sure, but in the meanwhile, Dark Horse updates regularly and you’re welcome to check it out 😀 I also created a fun website for Dark Horse which you can view here. Once I get Act 5 completed, and the re-vamps of Acts 1-3 done (not all of Act 3, but parts of it really need to be redone) I hope to be able to start putting out a manga style print version. That…is a long way off, though 😉

As always, if you have questions or comments, please feel free to comment here, or contact me! Have a lovely weekend all!

Okay,

So I wasn’t sure if I’d have a chance to post anything, since I’ve been at Gen Con, but seems as though I’ve got some free time in my schedule 😀

Here’s some pictures:

In the hotel Marriot with four friends. This is our view.

A nifty Theatre by the Embassy Hotel, where some of the events I attended were held.

Old School (Adam West) Batman.

Super Girl!

If anyone knows who this dude is cosplaying as, please let me know!

And Captain Kirk and the Joker.

Last thing I’d like to post is a mock-up of a commission I’ve completed (except for the cover, which this is just a mock-up, as I’ve said.) I need to scan in the finished image so the lines are cleaner. I am also making a few changes that were requested, including adding some buildings.

Okay! That’s all I have time for today. I hope to post some more later

It’s been a while, I know–for this, I apologize. I have had so many thing going on, including a move from Illinois out of state. So…things have been more than a little crazy, and I’ve had no time for art–and little access to Internet service.

So once I finally get my desk and scanner and everything up here, I’ll be working on Dark Horse again, as well as some other stuff. Until then, here’s a picture I drew so I didn’t get too out of practice.

Random drawing I did for practice.

I look forward to updating this blog and my comic once more! Sorry for such a long delay :*(
