Anthrocon 2009 Badge Practice :: Round 1


I had asked in my DA journal a while back for 'volunteers' to allow me to draw a variety of characters so that I may practice cutout badges, as well as have ample examples at my con stand. Here is round one of... well, we'll see ;)

I am still trying to figure how how to hang these guys... hence the string lines. Ha ha, I think Aelius is cute... hung up by his foofy ears, heh ^^; Not sure about the other two yet... I may just have to punch a whole in the laminated border (which means I need a laminator too...). Size has been another challenge. I think they are fine until I add names and accessories... well, more practice it is then! Be ready for round two! ;)

A Formal Romance


A little practice at both drawing humans, and 'hoping' to finally capture the look of my favorite character, Demitrius. Those of you who know me know I have been trying to draw him for years, to no avail. His design is nothing 'fancy,' but I think that is what makes drawing him so difficult actually. I have a clear image of how he would be in real life, but when I try to translate that into cartoon... something gets lost. Get ready to see a lot of him, because I need the practice!

I kinda like this piece overall. The girl's head seems a bit too large, and his face may be too long... but for a practice sketch, I am pleased with it =)

A picture a drew a while back of my persona, Cybre. I would really like to clean this one up and make it the main picture for my new personal website concept.
