This image popped into my head and I just had to do it. Oh those two. <3 The image is big enough to be a desktop so just click on the small image :D
I'm definitely getting more comfortable with drawing them in my style. It's a cross between comic/animation inspiration but I think I found the happy medium between the two where I can still have fun muscles but it's not TOO much. I'm also having fun with putting purple tones in my shadows. <3
I actually had a NIGHTMARE last night with a demonic Snow White trying to KILL ME EAT ME DRAIN ME OF MY BLOOD WANTING TO DO BAD BAD THINGS TO ME. But the most terrifying part was that SHE DIDN'T HAVE A FACE. It was just shadows and contours.
Thanks, Neil Gaiman. I'll never be able to watch Snow White without cringing ever again. T_T
I was having a lot of trouble sleeping the night before last night when I decided to get out of bed and read a little. I ended up grabbing Neil Gaiman's 'Smoke and Mirrors' and opening it up to 'Snow, Glass, and Apples' thinking that it might sooth me to sleep. NOT SO. This image churned endlessly in my head and I ended up getting up and drawing a quick rough sketch (that the final product doesn't really bear any resemblance to anymore) so that I could do a full painting later.
Well, the painting isn't really done but I'm stopping for now. I'll go back to it later and really fine tune it, but I stopped because I ended up scaring myself by continuously thinking about how freaky Snow White was while painting it in an empty house at night. O_O
PLEASE DON'T EAT ME, SNOW WHITE T_T
(I tried to make the mirror in a vaguely apple-like shape. Does that show through enough? The tall thingy is the stalk...)
Thanks again to everyone who participated in
help_haiti! I'm still sorry that I was lame about the whole bidding thing, I will be better next time!

Now I'm not a 10/Rose shipper in the slightest (to me, the Doctor is very asexual, but that's another story), but this image was cute and fun. I have a habit of sticking roses on Rose or making them bloom around her. And yes, she is pregnant, but is the Doctor the father? OR IS IT AN ALIEN EGG BEBBEH LIKE GWEN? :O

I was linked to a sweet Harry/Draco New Year's Eve kiss fic and asked to draw a scene from that. Man, I loved inking this, it was just too much fun. I might've gone too far (esp with the trees) but oh well! Illustrative inking <3

VINTAGE BATMAN AND ROBIN VERY YES! Given that I'm on a huge DC kick at the moment, I was very happy to draw this. This is supposed to be a more vintage Batman and Robin, especially with Dick Grayson being a young child. I kept it a bit modern with the inking and the coloring. This one really begged to be colored, the other ones are definitely better as black and white drawings. :D
Thanks for the fun commissions guys! Hopefully, the money we raised will give a lot of help and support to Haiti.

Wanted to do a cute pin-up girl in between working on Haiti commissions. They're almost done! I want to send them all out together, hopefully by the end of this week. I'm making pretty good time on all this and keeping well on top of my to-do list, yay!
Anyway, tried some new things with this girl: tinting the line art a brown instead of black, playing with textures, etc. I struggled a bit with drawing her but I like the way she came out. :D
Superman is SOOOOO happy. XD That palm sized Batman is in danger of being crushed by an overly enthusiastic hug of adoration!
Yes, I KNOW I'm supposed to be working on commissions (and I am! Really!) but I was looking at the wonderfully talented
I have a huge weakness for adorable cat stories and Neil Gaiman's story about how his cat Zoe got stuck behind the bathtub has to be the cutest thing story ever.

Because Sam's a giant (wonderful!) dork, he of course wrote super hero descriptions for the fic that I WON OFF OF HIM, BWAHAHAHA! This time I tried really hard to do it really comic book style with the ink and the color and the cheesiness.
Btw, Constable Cymru? MOST RIDICULOUSLY DRESSED SUPERHERO EVER.
This morning, there was a cataclysmic earthquake in Haiti. They need all the help they can get.

Sorry for lack of update yesterday! I was working on this and finished it today:

Can someone tell me what "TARDIS in Landscape" is in French? XD I painted this because I like to picture TARDISes in fancy pants landscape paintings in museums, it makes me laugh! TARDIS LANDSCAPE BOMB! XD And then they put the TARDIS in a stained glass in End of Time! It's like they KNOW ME.
Also worked on Torchwood a little bit:

Jack without his greatcoat. Drawing that coat is a PAIN!
And did this one just for kicks:

CAPTAIN TOOOOORCHWOOOOOOOD! XD After I won a bet against
sam_storyteller, I made him write me a fic where Torchwood meets Superman and Batman. He did it marvelously and I HAD to draw Captain Jack as a superhero! :D I totally stole Space Ghost's pose but I HAVE NO REGRETS.

Why are you so hard to draw? But at least I feel like I'm getting somewhere!

Think I've finally settled on Jack's face design. Different from what I started from but he iz verreh charismatic!

Started figuring out his body proportions. BARROWMAAAAN! YOUR COAT! *shakes fist* Thank god for Commissioner Gordon, I ended up referencing Bruce Timm's design a lot in trying to simplify that huge greatcoat. No buttons, no pocket flaps, no nuttin' except for the little flaps on his shoulder to show that it's military. Was feeling a little lazy so I didn't clean him up too much. XD
( I also drew a comic but it has a few spoilers for End of Time 2 )

I did work on Captain Jack some more earlier today, mostly did a larger drawing of his face, decided on proportions and stuff (and also drew my icon). But I was feeling lazy and didn't feel like scanning that in.
Instead, I'll post this:

Alix says we're creepy. XD Anyway, I really felt like painting and decided to dust off my watercolors and brushes and paint Tom Baker! He's so fun to draw and paint, I could feel myself trying to stretch my own features as I drew his smile. I started trying to talk like him too... yeah, I know, there IS such thing about getting too much into the spirit of things...
The completed painting will hopefully be displayed and for sale at the Gallifrey One Convention in February. I'll be there so if you guys spot me, come on over and say hi! :D
I'm also considering selling prints of the my Big Gay Battle fanart but I'm not quite sure of the details yet. Please watch this space for further information! :)
