Sac Anime Super Sassy Success

Now that I have your attention...

Yes. Super Sassy Success. We faced Sickness, even boredom, but it was definitely a good experience.

Started out good and early on Friday. Me and Alex where the only ones there until Natalie showed in the evening, until than I had the whole table to myself and was mostly amusing myself with the crowd and the cosplayers. I had my phone charms up for sale, my portfolio to look at with the majority of my colored works inside, my old Black and White Prints from last November up for 3 bucks, and the promise of candy and super sticky notes to passerby.

Alex wore my Szayel cosplay on friday because he was amused by the wig and wanted to look sassy fabulous.

Blurry Yoko Copter!!!!

Pikminlink stopped at our table for the Sac Anime Mascot contest. Natalie wanted to show her appreciation by making her a sign that didn't show up on camera.

If you're not familiar with Pikminlink, she pretty much IS link, best Legend of Zelda cosplayer I have seen (Other than Chris Simmer, but he's a good thousand feet tall)

Photo taken from her Deviantart. She has a website as well.

And just so we all know, this is Chris.

He also makes a mean master chief.

Saturday was a lot of drawings and bumming about. Alex got his Dio Brando cosplay and strutted about while I sold things here and there. He got a few good pictures taken from other people. I did a whole bunch of little sketches from, what else, Naked Matador stories.

Oh the joys of Papermate pens.
They have finally started selling "So Ronery" pillows in Vendor Rooms at Anime Conventions. I am both intrigued and mortified.
Sunday was cool because I got a lot of silly little commissions that added up. Saturday I got to complete a page in a girl's sketch book that was themed around the far east and japan shit, so I forked out Opus wearing a crane kimono for her. This older lady who may mention me on her blog had a pair of pants running around that were all about doodles. Me being myself, I drew Matador on her seam.

But I wasn't the only one doing mad commissions, Brandon Mckinney showed up at the convention, for those of whom who are too lazy to check that hyperlink, he's a storyboard artist that has most likely worked on something you like.

I commissioned him to turn these:

into this:

And I blew my damn load because Matador looks so Sassy, and Marvolus is so Dapper.

He was impressed by my stuff and gave me some great advice as far as continuing art goes. I am really happy I met him, and even more so, for going on Sunday at all because I felt sick. It was worth it, mos def.

As for wicked cosplayers. This probably took the top, just because I didn't get the chance to show you the jesus cosplayer with the wolfwood cross.

I'll be here, watching my deviantart get massive spams of new watchers now. Thanks to everyone who came to the table or bought something! I hope you are enjoyed yourself at the con!

The Living Funk

So I made a sketch blog.
It's weird, because if you follow me, I have an account on pretty much every networking site available... I use most of them too. But I wanted a sketch blog that wasn't a TegakiE, because I am far too neurotic to be ok with anything I post there for more than a day, and I'm horrid at using my Tablet.

In any case. This will be a mix of many things. Random sketch book pages, things I doodle on. Works in Progress. Random shit or things that inspire me... The list goes on.

In any case, I'll just post a few things I've been working on. Another aim of having this is to better explain my art or concepts behind said art. Feel free to ask questions, critique when necessary. Whatever.



The text in this picture I got from the kid who sits in front of me in Accounting. It reads, A gun shot is fired, cat's make love in the alley. The street lamp flickers. He frequents writing haiku's on Tiny slips of paper then throwing them at people in the room. I traded for one with Halloween Candy.



Our School's dance studio has a lady doing an arabesque painted on the wall. I drew Mozes in the same pose...This picture will be finished eventually...



Me and my boyfriend Alex. He is a passive drawer and he drew me a picture in return.
I always look so confused.



Anatomy Class. And an entertainment weekly from the 90's.



Originally there was going to be some sort of car thrashing into his back. But I haven't even attempted clothes yet.



In the month I have been in a relationship, the amount of Klaxon I have been drawing has SKYROCKETED.



Poorly Executed picture that I imagine being part of Second Lazarus, a division (Or Digression) from Naked Matador Stories. Matador looks too human, and Marvolus looks crazy ugly. Uglier then usual.

Bad Picture.



WIP I guess. For the Record, Sebastian Castella is my favorite Matador, just because Boy looks DAMN fine. I think I might alter this so that it will fit for my sketchbook assignment. I did it for the lulz during Thanksgiving Break.

Here's the Original:



:/



A lot of Marvolus is a Phineas Gage sort of fairy tale. I'll let you google that if you need to, but it's not a happy ending.



Perfume Samples!



I little present for my Snow Flamingo... This took a lot more math then I ever want to do again.



Injun I drew for a pencil test.



AND FINALLY. Sorry, first post bulk upload... a lot of this is crap from October...

A short blip from the next chapter of Naked Matador Stories: Manifest Destiny Which will be out by next weekend. It's been bumped back and forth, but I have a good many pages of it done so it WILL BE POSTED. Most likely the whole chapter as one. Basically it follows Stella leaving and her questioning Opus's maturity along the way. Opus never gets a break. It's sad.

In any case, keep watching. I hope to post every few days because as of late, I've been doodling on everything. If you want to see art that is actually FINISHED. Go to my deviant art (Listed in the links section) Not everything that is on here as a WIP or otherwise will make it to my deviant page. This is a lot more of a conversation then just a scrap book, so you will most likely get previews of what I'm posting here before they get to deviantart.

I'm just trying to appear more human. Mecca lecca high mecca hiney ho...



One more picture of Sebastian. UNF.
