Cardmaking, hooray!

It's actually been a week or so since I did these (a couple are already sold in the charity store) but I've been recovering from illness recently - and when you're sick you don't really feel like writing big ol' long blog posts on art.

I did do a speed video of making these, along with explaining the junk I used to put them together. I say 'junk' because they were going to be thrown out if I didn't make use of them (I know a few families might want to hang on to their christening-cake decorations - we decided not to have them in the keepsake box anymore).




Right now; current projects are:

Doing various bits for B-Mask's CM Channel project
I'm afraid nobody gets to see any of what I've done until the episode's released, B-Mask wants to keep it a secret. This stuff is really fun to work on, though!

College work
I still need to take some photographs, and it is very hard-going as I'm not a photographer whatsoever, and then doing 20 sheets based from your photos is a challenge for me. However, here's a couple of the snaps that are my personal favourites:




I also took some close-ups of flowers and even photos of our new house (it needs a lot doing to it, so it's in a bit of a state right now, but nobody said the pictures had to be pretty). I don't have the photos of the house off the camera yet, so I can't show those yet.


Request: Tita Gasman art
Aqazar, who runs JT Forums, recently requested me to do a piece of art featuring his two characters with a 'steampunkish' feel to the setting. I finished the rough lineart and scanned in yesterday, and so far all is good and he's pleased with how it's going. ^^ Lineart, shown below:




And finally - I don't believe I'd posted about this when I did it - I drew a portrait of Smaz and I a few weeks ago. I'm pleased with how it turned out; it proudly sits in my personal sketchbook (the more I use this sketchbook, the more I agree with Picasso's quote that keeping a sketchbook is like keeping a diary).





That's all for now, really; I know, long update is long, but it's nice to catch up.
