In less than 3 hours I leave for SFO and am bound for Shenzhen, China! I will be there until October 7, after which I go to Japan, so I will be out of the country until October 29. MISS YOU ALL, WISH ME LUCK, pray I don't die from the heat in China and/or get lost in Japan, etc. I'll still try to steal wireless/troll internet cafes when I can, but chances may be sparse. :<
SO TO BID YOU ALL FAREWELL here's another sketchdump that I've held onto with the thought of showing them only after I colored them until I finally lost patience with myself. 8/

Yaayy more halfassed placeholder art 8D; After going through my laptop recently I found that there were several things I never posted, so they're going up now!
( Gundam 00 )
Also, all this P4 that I've been obsessively playing was making me really interested in Japanese mythology, and ever since reading Sea of the Unconscious I got the super ambitious idea to draw the P4 kids as their respective Ultimate Persona/Japanese god/historical figures a la the Ancient Greek/Western P3 sketches I posted last time. The ambitious part is to actually complete the set of all 8 (maybe even 9, or 10?? if I decide to stick in Adachi and Izanami too), vignette style each with its own bg, to come together in either a huge banner or be individually separate or in sets of 3. THIS ARTIST ALLEY THING, I MIGHT BE STARTING TO TAKE IT MORE SERIOUSLY MAYBE o__o
( Persona 4 Pantheon - Amaterasu WIP )
Now if any of you guys have any descriptive info on Suzuka Gozen (or Suzuka Gongen) or Dairokuten Maou it would be super helpful cuz these guys are OBSCURE. Sources say Rokuten Maou in P4 references to Oda Nobunaga as he's purportedly dubbed himself "demon king" or somesuch?? Buddhist stuff is so complicated cuz it mingles historical roots in India, China, AND Japan x__X;
RANDOM: Omg this song was the song played in the promo trailer for Burn After Reading that's so cool 8DDDD

even more so since I kind of KNEW what was coming
and even more so cuz hey! I'm a masochist! I will metaphysically slash my wrists by listening to amazingly compiled fan soundtracks!
and draw self-hurting angst art orz

And just today I was musing with a friend that I might enforce the a-draw-a-day agenda. It appears at this rate no actual enforcing is necessary. THANKS MARVEL

Who knew American comics would do such wonders to my artistic productivity! Thank you Runaways, thank you Young Avengers.
The terrible thing though is that it's taking up all my waking, not-working moments that are supposed to be spent doing Artist Alley stuff .___. /WRIST
Anyway, I'm still about 2 years worth of Runaways away from the actual Runaways/Young Avengers crossovers, which means I haven't read it yet, but whoever said that meant I can't draw crossover art right?

WOW it's been like relatively forever since the last time I posted art. I have a couple of fanarts lying about that I've done recently but they remain halfassed/unfinished and aren't in any state to be shown :C
HOWEVER thankfully
cursedinanime got my creative juices flowing! By lending me 2 seasons of Runaways, and treating me to lunch XDD I've finished the 1st volume of Runaways and I'm TRYING to slow down reading the 2nd volume (I'm just short of halfway) cuz dammit it's been so good and of course you start worrying when something gets too good (i.e. Heroes), especially when it's Marvel/DC since they swap writers and swapping writers is like the scariest thing you could do to the fans. Anyway, I know that shit happens, though I don't know for certain what kind, so I'll just wait for it. I'm sure I will be not at all good at dealing with it. I'm still reeling from Season 1 .__.
ANYWAY here have an ( ORLY Molly )
After I drew Molly I felt super productive! And
cursedinanime has paid me for a commission with delicious food! So I decided it was finally time to do it. And it's been way too long since I last drew Static Shock anyway X)

I've been watching Soul Eater again! And suddenly want to draw for it! But of course the moment I'm ready to sit down to do it my eyes get tired and it's too late for it to be done by tonight. So instead I'll put up some placeholder art. I haven't posted any art for... holy shit more than a month already? Didn't even have time to do Christmas art this year T__T
I was thankfully able to scrounge out some time to draw for the
willow_lotus exchange though.

I finally finished and turned in the first draft of my senior project paper this morning. I did absolutely nothing of use at school, and came home to do absolutely nothing of use for the rest of the night. Senioritis hit me hard. I think mostly it was the fact that I'd been constantly doing academic writing for the past 2 weeks and now that I'm relieved of it (for a very short time) I don't wanna do any more of it (i.e. start my witch hunt history paper). Which left nothing else to do (that urgently needed doing) so I decided it was some JABUN TIEM.

Also while I'm at it I'm going to showcase my proudest film role to date:
A product commercial video project my friend and I did for class. It was her idea to make an ad of my hypothetical energy drink Blitzkrieg (which I designed for a package design class) with a caffeinated berserker ninja (more like samurai really but wtv). It was a lot of fun XDDDD
I directed an ad about facial wash starring my friend but it isn't as hysterical so I won't embed it, but it's here if anyone wants to see 8)

I'm the freest that I've ever been this quarter and for some reason I'm feeling more restless. Instead of paying attention in the last 2 lecture classes I will ever have (unless I decide to be an academic schmuck and return for continued education), I find myself drawing furiously, thinking oh my god this is the only time left that I get to do something important and draw at the same time.
