Zee Octopus strikes again!!

Am happy that Saladin: The Animated Series has finally launched and will (hopefully) continue its 2 season run on TV :) Thanks to all for your kind and supportive words - it is much appreciated and made me feel all that hard work poured into the work was truly and well worth it :)

(and to dissenting and disgruntled voices: Haters be be pointing and talking and hating, but WE'LL KEEP ON GOING AND PROGRESSING. BOOYAAAAH XDDD)

My super lovely friends gave me a gorgeous watercolour moleskine for my birthday last year. And being the 'tard that I am, I was afraid to draw in it for fear of sullying the beautiful, pristine pages! But having ridden on a euphoria post Saladin TV debut I threw all cautions out of the window and went for it. This is the result! Thank you beautiful friends you know who you all are :)

Something for September

After a particularly busy yet productive August (by my own lackadaisical standard that is) September is a horribly lazy month where I can't seem to be arsed to draw anything good.
These are the only two that I like for this month, even when the 2nd pic was dangerously bordering on watercolour goulash with so many colours clashing for attention.

Lift Off

Whee... this picture. I felt quite ambitious starting this one, thinking how much fun I would have with the dramatic angle and the colouring... but unfortunately my inept watercolouring skills and inexperience took over. And it ended up looking super horrendous and blotchy and very very different from what I have in mind. I'll probably recreate this again in Photoshop some day.

Watercolour dump

Boredom

Drawing of random fairy like creature when I was bored at work and extremely itching to try out colour pencils. Rendered in liquid watercolour and slathered on colour pencils like nobody's business.

I'm running out of inspiration these days - arrghh. I need to watch Bale movies. Lots and lots of Christian Bale movies.

Yellow yellow orange brown

Found these two bottles of liquid watercolour in my drawer at work, and decided to try them out. I totally suck at watercolour (and real media in general, except colour pencils ahahha), and this is my first try, but it's really fun!

Extra touch ups with some Copics before it looks like the girl's suffering from yellow fever!
