It's official!

NerdTests.com says I'm an Uber Cool Nerd God.  Click here to take the Nerd Test, get geeky images and jokes, and write on the nerd forum!
I'm a super nerd!

I saw it on Radio's blog, decided to do it. Results are pretty rofly expected.

Did not expect to score so low in the Awkward category or so high in the Science/Math. Probably because I lol'd at "What is the heaviest element a star can produce before going Supernova?"'s Multiple choice of Fire (Fi) as an element...

/nerd.

Fun quiz though.

Seth's Dream

So Joey humored me and wrote me more slash Fan-FanFiction for RG. And because I was so pleased, I drew him a picture for it.

YES! NOT FAIL YAOI!
I will go back and fix the coloring/shading/highlights/etc later. I just finished this after 4 hours of work (1 hour drawing, 3 hours color) and am too exhausted to deal with any more.

Here's the original:
Based off this, though with a fair amount of mods.

Victorian Kano (Colored)

After several hours of work (and bothering poor Radio):

Learned how to do so much in such a short period of time!

Cheerio!

Well, feeling inspired, I decided to draw good 'ol Kano in traditional Victorian wear. In the process of coloring it as well.

Pose and outfit completely stolen from Sandied of DeviantArt. She said I could, though, so it's okay.

Vote for Voltaire!

Another Philosophy assignment! This time it was to make a comic book of a philosopher of our choice campaigning to become Supreme Ruler of the World, while following their political ideals and teachings. The lovely Stephanie and I were partners on htis, and she and our equally lovely and very talented friend Samantha drew the pictures, while I digitized and colored them.

So here you are; names have been blurred for internet anonymity. And sorry Sammy, but I don't want our teacher thinking you our homework for us!

Violet and Orange

...Well. Really, it should be Green and Red in this case, but that would be too christmassy.
Tea drew this (obviously, it's good, so it couldn't have been me), and I colored it. Drad's not nearly that dark in reality, he's just supposed to be representing some devious mental shadow.

Horrible Doodles...Not again!

Embarrassing to post this. But have some laughs.
I
was asked to draw a Balrog, seen above. Credit whatever the hell this site is for that epic picture.

This is what I did from memory, being stupid and lazy.



Yeah. Lol.

The rest of it: A quepie, some kind of lizard thing with fins, a chick that looks like a very short cross between Gail and Ryu, a chibi with a lolita top hat spazzing at her ankles, an upside-down chibi, Ryu and Drad doing something questionable (that Ryu doesn't seem to want to do back), with me lawling beneath.

We seriously need to do things in class.

Spike


I wanted to experiment with a very winding body. Then I wanted to see if I could mentally project where it's stomach would be throughout the twists and turns, and therefore where it's back would be.


The spikes were just out of boredom.


Coat of Arms Mania

I've been going a little bit crazy in designing Coats of Arms for my characters (well, the nobility or Pseudo-nobility at least), and I've begun with my Riders (and a couple dragonspawn themselves).
Firstly, to start at the top of the family tree (or would it be the bottom, the roots? Whatever), we have Xiren Vior, despicable, evil, usurping ex-Rider of Zaraine the Black. One of the few 1-sidedly evil characters I have, though still with an interesting backstory. I wanted a Coat that showed his evilness and taste for weapons, but still subtly tied in with his important Vior bloodline (relating to a certain magical energy in the form of a sword).

< --This is the progression, and it turned into something I really liked.




Next we have his son, Karimo. He wanted to be disassociated with his father, but wanted to portray his pride for his beautiful black mount, Trianna. Again, I wanted to tie in the Vior sword, but also wanted to show Karimo's eternal debt and relation to Tsumi the Keeper. So... ->
I really enjoy the end result. The sword is yielded, and the dragon's submissive posture represents both Rider's and Dragon's debt to Tsumi. It directly honors his beloved Black, while still showing his protection of the sword. My first attempt, dragonfire licking his three weapons of choice, was alright, but more violent a look than I was going for.


Travelling up or down the tree is Karimo's son, Ryu. Now, he would normally adopt his mother's Coat, but since there were unfortunate circumstances, he had to make his own. I haven't picked one yet, though I like the more earthy feel to these ones (and the feather association with Tori), but I need to keep that Vior sword in there somewhere.


Finally, I did the one they're all sort of centered around, which is the Varmier Coat-of-Arms (Tsumi/Julesque). This turned out REALLY well in theory and sort of well on the paper, but the scan didn't do it justice at all. I'll probably redo this one very soon.

Essentially, hers is a shield (symbolising her status as the Protector), but made into the shape of a dragon head wreathed in flame. It's quartered as well: The top left is a demon, the top right is a golden dragon, the bottom left is a crecent moon and the bottom right is a sun.

Guest Art: blacklemon67 Water Dragon

So a friend of mine with some serious photoshop skills liked my dragon art, and asked if he could do some coloring. I said I'd be honored, and check out what he produced:

I think it looks amazing. Please, if you've got a deviant art acount, check him out at his page. A lot of his other stuff is really cool too, so take a look!

Note: Must seriously consider some more collab stuff.
