Tried to sketch Leolio Hauptsmann (from our Mage 2009 Chronicle too).
Supposedly Son of Ether, but one from the future—year 24xx or so.
Magalie Celeste, of the Euthanatos. One of the characters in our Mage: the Ascension 2009 Chronicle.
Referenced from a picture of Ellen Page, because no matter my efforts, I always picture Magalie as looking like her. So at least I got that out of my system for now.
Sketch of NYM
Trying to get back into drawing mode. I’ve got a couple of trades/requests to work on, but nothing beats doing something personal to put my gears running again.
Here’s an attempt at designing Nym (Ewan’s Avatar). Not sure if she’ll remain this way, or if I’ll change her design later on. May end up inked & coloured in vectors, so I might tweak a few things in the style as well.
This.
Has been in the works for ages.
I promise you’ll get fully coloured someday, Gren. Really.
(In the meantime, don’t mind the reddish background. It’s only here for the sake of contrast while colouring, to make sure I’m not leaving any unintended white area.)
Sketch - Tesla by =yzabel
Jen McAran/Tesla, redrawn from some practice sketch that turned out better than what I thought at first.
If I finish this picture, I think I’ll use it both for Unsung Heroes (original version of the character) and for SR4 (adapted there as a Technomancer).
How to use a tablet without hurting your wrist
This is a tutorial I’ve written two years ago. I still see a lot of people having problems with hand pains while using a tablet so I thought I might post in on tumblr where it should get to more people than on my LJ. If you use tablet you might want to look at it, if your friends use tablet you might want to show it to them.
Protect your hands and back before it’s too late~!!
Original text starts here:
I realized, that I’ve encountered many professional artists online that have problems with wrist that are caused by using tablet. No wonder: you can find tons of tutorials on graphic software, but you won’t find any on actual USING the tablet. Well, it is simple: you install the drivers, plug the tablet in, personalize the buttons, if you have any, and start drawing the same way as you did with the pencil, right?
Well… NO!
That is why I decided to write thisentrytutorial. Please, read if whether you’re just a beginner, or a professional that has been painting for longer than I have lived; the issue is much too grave for people living of making art to simply be ignored.
Good call. And bad posture can take you even further than hurting your wrist. Shoulder tendinitis due to sitting like crap really doesn’t help either!

Good Morning Sunshine: Animated WIP
For the sake of fun. :) Animated version of how this WIP is… well, progressing.
Good Morning Sunshine
Another one of my favourite couple of the moment. Ewan really isn’t a morning person, but let’s not worry: there are pretty nice ways of being woken up, after all. ^_^
Will correct blatant mistakes later on. For now: bedtime.
Hold My Hand
Sketch of Ewan and Adrian (yes, them again; what do you want, they fuel my inspiration these days).
I may draw them kissing instead, but for now, I’m too tired to go on tonight.
EDIT 04/02/12: And the lineart version:
Adrian+Ewan
A bit of eye-candy, just for my own selfish pleasure. ;)

WIP: Armisael
Another Christmas gift that’s going to be a little late (unfortunately): Armisael, for my friend Rapunzelita.
EDIT 27/12: Ongoing colouring process:
Angus - The Shadow
Working on a Christmas gift for a friend of mine. I’m not sure I’ll be able to finish it before the 25th, but he’s OK with it. ^^
Angus O’Donnell, from our Adventure! game.
EDIT 06/01/12 - And here’s a coloured version, which should pretty much be the final one, come to think of it:
Chalk Board theme
