@Mynameis-

I really like that last one. I remember I used to do that stuff before I even knew about it as a way to relieve stress before doing a big project. It's also good for getting in the right mindset for drawing and losens up your hand muscles...I should probably try that again.

@CanisWolfred - Yeah. I'm doing Zentangle now to improve some of my drawing skills, then I'm going to go for bigger projects from there. But yeah, it's great for warming up for sure.

@3Dash yeah, the third Zentangle looked mesmerizing the moment I checked your page. I never tried that kind of method before, I always messed with a large blob of Kneaded eraser as a warm up. Weird yes, but it gets me pumped up for a reason.

Whoa, that zentangle made a knot in my brain @_@

Karakato
I feel the urge to put that lineart into a coloring book haha

If any Pokémon-loving artists are interested someone's currently set up a project to try and get a different artist to draw every single Pokémon (I've claimed Whiscash because look at that face ). All the info's in this Google Doc, and just a heads up you seem to need a Twitter profile to follow his rules (and you can also check #Twitterdex to see pictures people have already finished). So go nuts and draw some Pokémon

Doodling to put off painting something that's actually worthwhile.

@RaReRux I'd love to be that great when doing Watercolor traditionally or digitally. Your work is just serene and I like how peaceful that nymph is.

Anyway, just finished an infograph on a certain case study I just crammed for, and I somehow managed to fit in a comic for some reason. I felt it could stand on its own so I uploaded it.

^That's surprisingly smart. I like it.

Also, I haven't had time to draw in weeks until yesterday...only to completely forget what I was trying to draw. I got a half-finished picture here, but I'm not even sure what it is. -_-;

@Karakato: Thanks, I'm not too great at watercolors myself, but they're really fun to use!

Okay, decided to try out a new style after reigniting my interests in vector art. And since I'm a nut for Mega Man, I decided to do another robot master fan art:

Finished this picture of my hand the other day. It turned out pretty well, but it looks kinda smudgy in areas, even though I didn't shade using my fingers.

Also, I know Karakato saw this, but apparently I forgot to post it here. This was for my drawing class and uses six methods of drawing, so that's why it looks a bit odd. I used this as reference.

Who wants to be part of an art collab?

So there are two Art Collaborations I'm taking part in and am asking whom among you are interested in joining in and showing off their creative talents. So the first one I'm joining is the Dragon Ball Collab. Basically, you can pick among the choices of all the characters from the OG DB to the Buu saga of DBZ. There are still a lot of spots left so there are still good characters to choose from. I myself chose Burter. If you are interested in joining, check out the link for more details.

The second Collab, is the Mega Woman Gender Swap Collab For anyone interested, there are 9 slots left. Sure the one's left are obscure, but they are still interesting enough in their own right and can provide a good creative challenge. I already submitted my entry (two drawings to be exact) and I'll just post one of them here:

Just scribbling on Art Academy while I'm waiting for coffee to be made.

I started a tumblr a little while ago which I'm liking since it's encouraging me to draw more than just my comic, like this Attack On Titan fan art I randomly spent much of the other day drawing - I need me some real 3D maneuver gear! (Any engineers among you with a lot of time on your hands? Please?)

This was part of I canceled commission I made for a friend, I even got the story boards down...

Here's a still life I made about a months or something ago, and only just now uploaded to dA so I could post it here.

I drew this looooong time ago. A couple years back, I drew a lot, but I lost the motivation.

I also drew Platinum The Trinity from Blazblue too, but I haven't uploaded it to the internet. If people want me to, I'll be glad to do so.
