Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while...I haven't really had much time to work on art with school and work. I went through a really rough couple of weeks because of an issue at work (among other things), and it was so mentally and physically draining and left me in such a state of disgusting depression, that any free time I did have was spent in bed, eating goldfish crackers and watching episodes of Bebop and an assortment of bad movies. I really just didn't have the energy to do anything productive and/or creative. Now that I've dug myself out of that emotional hellhole somewhat, I've started working on some character sketches.
This is Haleigh, a character I came up with a few years ago. There's not much to her, I still have a lot of back story and personality to flesh out. I haven't really thought about her much until recently, so I thought sketching her would be a good start to get back into the idea she is the focal point of. I'm planning on inking this once I fix her feet and hands (they're terrible.) Her story is set mostly in the 90's, hence the attire. haha.

And she also has a dog. He doesn't have a name yet, but he is a senior citizen and very dignified.

I want to ink these hopefully soon and get to work on some more drawings of them, other character designs and maybe some stuff with the story.
iron and wine - peng! 33
YAY! for new stuff :D I'm sorry to hear about the tough times, hopefully things have (or will soon) smooth over. And Bebop always makes me feel better too! I know what it's like to feel shitty and not want to make anything let alone do anything. However I am glad to see things on the up like I said. Anyways I like these drawings and would be thrilled to see them finished. Ok then well hopefully we can keep up some form of correspondance, and hopefully with shorter lapses between haha.
ReplyDeleteThanks! :B I'll get them finished as soon as I work up the motivation to fix her hands. I wish I had the hand game on smash like you, lol.
ReplyDeleteI hope things get better too...and yeah, I have a tendency to just kinda drop off the face of the earth for periods of time. I'll make an effort not to anymore, haha.
hahaha yeah, unfortunately we can't all be a beast with drawing hands lol. And I know it might be a bit weird but feel free to like Facebook message me or even text me or something if you're ever bummed and feel so inclined. I'm pretty awesome and that tends to be contagious.
ReplyDeletehaha, well thanks for the offer. i could use a little more contagious awesomeness in my life. although it might be difficult to text you without knowing your number lol.
ReplyDeletelol funny you should say that considering as soon as I typed that I realized I didn't include it. Well my number is 978 228 9094. And like I said you can text me or whatever anytime. I don't really sleep ever either so don't bother yourself with that. Ok then well I am off now.
ReplyDeletehaha same here. i do not concern myself with that thing called "sleep". Sleep is for the weak!
ReplyDeletemine is 978 807 7447. i will always respond unless im in class or at work...which is probably about 75% of my day, now that i think about it...lol.
Alright so now I have your number too, which is good because though I will talk to people I don't know and/or wrong numbers with no problems I find it's always better when I know who it is. I never was that good with the "don't talk to strangers" thing lol
