Happy New Year!

Unfortunately I went on a major panic about what to draw for this. I'm not so great at thinking up ideas with a specific theme, especially if this theme is very general. There is a bright side though. I actually thought new year's eve was tomorrow so I've got this drawing done early!

I'm actually really proud of this. I didn't use any sort of reference for the pose or colouring (something that doesn't happen often) and it's worked out quite well. Plus I've never drawn someone with red hair before so it was a lovely change. Plus for the first time (possibly ever) I've actually drawn shoes that look decent! 

Also, I've almost finished my drawing for next week so it'll definitely be up. I'm considering just going on a drawing spree since I'm in a good mood.

An idea!

For some reason this wouldn't post two weeks ago so I'm trying again. 

So I had an idea today for an animation. Since I've been suffering from depression I thought I'd try and attempt a short on it. Here's a sneak peak. Don't want to show too much so this is all for this week (excuse the bad photo). 

It's almost Christmas!

So last week I didn't post anything. I couldn't get online so I'll have to make up for it this week with a completed picture!

I'm quite pleased with this. I wanted to experiment a bit with shadows and colouring this time. I thought that I'd expand a bit on my more simple style and add a lot more colour to it, especially since Christmas is all about the bright colours! It's a simple concept but I didn't want to go overboard, especially since I've not seen a similar concept.

That's all for this time. I've got a few sketches I've been messing about with so perhaps I'll have another finished drawing for next time.

It's December!

Its almost Christmas. That means I only have a few weeks to work on a Christmas picture. I've been sketching a lot of doodles lately but not much development has been happening. 

I really need to start doing more. I'm struggling finding the time to work, learn Japanese and draw so I'll have to rethink how I'm doing everything. Everything's settled after the move so I can start getting in a better routine. It's not much this week but at least I'm still sketching!
