Okay, so this is my new favourite internet-spawn:



Accelerating chicken = hilarious.





It is so obvious which pokemon this is that I feel kind of dirty posting it. :C Less obvious ones next time, maybe!




Just starting on her. Pretty happy so far - she's a little long in the face maybe. Not sure where to go from here since I've decided the placement of the guild symbol (a golden circle of geckos - I was going to place it behind her head like a halo :B) is going to be a bit awkward though.

Anyway, going to eventually offer something similar to the finished version on the GWGuru forums for GW monies as, like, "guild portraits" or something. :B Haven't decided how much to charge or whether I'm going to colour them digitally or traditionally. Two different options and different prices? :\

I <3 GW YES I DO




Next week: Cray guild portrait finished? More pokejinkas?? Old sketches??? SOMETHING ELSE ENTIRELY????

It's a real mystery.

Actually, I should join the Pokemonathon soon. Hmmmm. I have a week vacation coming up. I will start then! Someone remind me later.

Ooh, I'd better add a new LJ tag for pokejinkas.

Exam today and it is now two-thirty in the morning and I haven't studied. Argh but I'm going to bed. >:(


So. I've been sketching a lot of GW fanart. Partly in preparation for opening up commissions for GW currency and partly because I'm having a lot of fun finally fleshing out the characters and learning how to draw their clothing. :D



My oldest and favourite character, Cray! She's primarily a mesmer - the classiest class! She's a total snob. :D And her clothes are really fun to draw~


In my head, Cray has very subtle expressions. Which is tricky because it means I constantly draw her looking the same and boring. I'unno! She doesn't really have much of a personality yet, aside from being a snobby mesmer. :/ She likes treasure hunting and identifying items and INTERRUPTING ENEMY SPELLCASTERS BUAHAHAHAH.


And my Factions-native monk Sama Bean. Her name is a bit of an in-joke between my boyfriend and I. >_> The first bit just derives from my name - Samantha - and the second bit is sort of a pet name. :B Anyway, Sama is a friendly young Shing Jea acolyte. She's naive and happy and probably likes sweet things but like hell I'm going for the sweet-tooth title. :| That shit is EXPENSIVE. I think I'll turn that sketch in the bottom left into something coloured and finished. She's pretending to smell her Lotus style monk staff like it's a real flower, since it's not that obvious. I think it's cute. SHUT UP.



Sooo yeah! *dork* I think my next (non-abandoned like my poor lvl 4. necro Marilyn Marrow) character will be a warrior named Mamath Mazilla. :D I want to make a male elementalist as well. He can be the unwilling pimp to my myriad of female characters. xD
