Frankenfurt





So, this is the first post for the summer "drawing a day thing" a bunch of us are doing. And by "drawing a day" we mean five days a week. Which is good, cause I'm lazy. I'll be lucky to make it past the first week with my attention span. =D
This is a simple steampunk character design in Sean "cheeks" Galloway's style. He's got some pretty sweet stuff. Nice lines of action and a smooth style.
Delicious. <3
This was just a prelim design. I wanted to add more detail. But this is all you get! D<
You stay classy, San Diego!

What's Old Is New

So, Many years ago, I began writing a story. Along with this story, I drew out the characters, naturally. Even though the story never reached completion, the characters have run along with me all this time. And so I present the newest versions of Tai, Nexis, Ray, and Omika <3
At first I wanted to do them in a power pose type thing, but when I reached the end of Omika's drawing, she looked so sad... maybe cause I hadn't drawn her in a while, eh? d; So I kept the theme, and they all look kind of melancholic.
Enjoy <3

"It's not Pink. It's Lightish Red."

A very quick Blotch of Colour thrown on.
Looks more like fire then it does awesome energy tendrils, but whatever.
Why Pink, you may ask?
Cause I can. D:

((It Matches My Blog! O= ))

Nakie!

A while ago, a bunch of us sat in on a Pre-An class. This is the result. I had been reading Marvel's RUNAWAYS some time before, and it reinspired my love of flying. So I decided to draw a figure suspended in the air. I plan on eventually colouring it and adding energy tendrils extending from her feet, hands and hair.

And she's not really naked... It's more like I never got around to making her "Super Hero" Costume, which is just spandex anyways... So she's made of energy and doesn't need clothing. =D

There's No Way That's Gary Oldman...

I really don't have any art I feel like posting on here.
I just got sick of seeing my goddamn animation as the first thing on this page... D:
Nor do I have anything I feel like typing out =D

And so ends another episode of 'Wasting Time With Melissa.'
Tune in next time for more nonsensical fun!

The Cookie Thief

Second assignment for animation. We had to draw a ball bouncing towards us (two point perspective) and then add a nifty tail for follow-through and overlapping action. Yay!

So, my layout (which isn't in this version =D) was a kitchen, and the ball critter knocked over the cookie jar and ate all meh cookies! D<

Boucing Ball of Joy

So. My first real animation... Fun.

The layout was rushed and done the night before, and the wonderful camera warps it <3>

Overall, I'm pleased with it, and I'm excited to animate more! D:
