A Certain Slant of Light

asakiyume: How does this look for a rough sketch of M--?



The scanner washed out the curl in her hair, & I couldn't decide if she should have short or long hair; I can change it if you like.

(This is an illustration for asakiyume's Pen Pal series, which involves messages in bottles, volcanoes, political dissidents, and a floating city, and is therefore much cooler than this picture can do it justice. What can I say, sometimes I have random sketching attacks. Also you should all go read the story.)

...and then I was having such a good sketching that I decided to draw a picture for my brother, who is having shoulder surgery this week.

( Picture! )

My creative endeavors are very hard on my friends and family. "Oh hey!" I'll cry, "I've got this brilliant story idea where you turn into a turtle and nearly get eaten by the Devil! With illustrations!"

Unfortunate friend: O.O

"And by I have this idea I mean it's already written and illustrated. Want to read it?"

I have a WHOLE SERIES of these. They are TOTALLY BRILLIANT. You can tell, because my friends have not banded together to remove all computers, pens, pencils, and paper from my custody.
