Head and stuff

[secondlina]

Okay. for some reason, for the past month, i've had a lot of migraines and nausea. Like, all the time. It just won't stop. I'm thinking it's caused by lack of water, or something. When I was a kid, I had a period of time where I felt like this, so my mom bought a two litre jug and made me drink a full one every day. I think I might try that again. See if it changes anything. Or maybe it's stress? vbgBGHGHSFGSGGSG EXPLAIN BRAIN, EXPLAIN!

On a more positive note, i'm making some extra cash drawing things to put on children's clothing and gorgeous actresses from the 20's called Gabrielle Ray. I lvoe the 20's. I love their clothing.

Aw yeah. Life be good. If any of you guys want a commission, be sure to comment! I'm going to open commissions on Namesake and Deviant art in a week or two. But you guys get first dibs :D






I'm on a giant vampire kick again. I borrowed a ton of good comics about Vampires. Like the "Bestiaire Amoureux" (Bestiary in Love) by Sfar. Gotta love these vampire books. The good ones. I love vampires! I find it funny that Sfar's vampires kinda remind me of Marcelline from Adventure time (the way they kinda hang with mortals, floating around). It's fun!

Also, for those interested, we have more Jabberwocky copies now!

Hey! May I ask how much you're charging for commissions? 8D

Love your Gabrielle too, by the way. :) I've always found your line art to particularly pop when applied to classy vintage (or fantasy~) ladies!

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Yep. seems to be the whole "like a woodcutter thing" style!

Depending on the complexity, I usually go for 10$ for a sketch of one or two characters (acting together, or on the same page separately), 25$ for the inked version and 35$ for the colored.

It's definitely that time of year when things start to cool down, but your body still needs water. Lots of water. Just don't drink so much it dilutes the natural salts in your body. That could be bad... But, is the weather changing as well? That can cause some people to get headaches and such. (Human barometer!)

Still no commissions, but I'm still waiting for that ancient doujinshi to show up in my mailbox. Hint. Hint. ^_-;;

Also, I love the drawing for Gabrielle Ray! I still know nothing about her, but I think you captured her well. Here's to classic beauty!

Hear hear!

Argh. hint taken. I need to make a massive to-do list. Now.

kids clothes <3

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Yes :D

[pip25.livejournal.com]

80% of my headaches are without a doubt caused by the lack of water. Your numbers may vary of course, but it is definitely a good idea to try drinking more. :)

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

I think i'll get a fun water bottle. Might convince me to do it more.

[spankingfemme.livejournal.com]

Oh the colors look fantastic! XD And gabby Ray is brilliant! (Thanks for the ref ;)

Sorry you've been having headaches and the such :( Hopefully the water makes a difference *hugs*

P.S. I do want a commission of Warrick from you, just drop me a message at my email: imtherealjenna@hotmail.com to give me a price ;)

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Oh cool! you can send me what you would like at secondlina at gmail dot com. Be warned, since it's one of my own characters, the commission prices will be less expensive. I don't charge as much for my characters, since they don't required any practice sketches to get right! :D

Vampires! <333

Why must fandoms like Twilight ruin them? :/

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Who knows.

[vonandmoggy.livejournal.com]

Here's something to horrify you...almost every single woman I know is pregnant at the moment, so the second I read "nausea," my inside voice screams, "OH NO! HER TOO!".

*laughs at self*

Hope you feel better soon!!! *hug*

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Hah! I figured at least one person would jump to that conclusion when I typed that. :D

But I can guarantee it's probably the water thing for a myriad of reasons. :D

[brendala.livejournal.com]

Hope you feel better soon. **hugs**

Great drawings (as usual).
I love looking at pictures of old time actresses. And I wish we as a society could go back to having a standard of female beauty that somewhat resembled real life.
/end feminist soapbox


What will you be charging for commissions? Will there be a set price or will it depend on how complicated the request is?

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Those were the curvier, sexier times.

Depending on the complexity, I usually go for 10$ for a sketch of one or two characters (acting together, or on the same page separately), 25$ for the inked version and 35$ for the colored. I mostly only ask for more if it's got the world's most complex background. I also ask for less if it's one of my own characters (like say, the namesake cast) because it's just fun.

I hope you feel better soon, Isa<3

Kids+animals=THE CUTEST.

And aldkjf the second pic, the details are amazing!

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Thanks :D :D

Details are my thiiiing.

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

I might not do a commission right now, but I may be interested in buying a print of stuff you already have, like some of the ones you had for the Con. That is, if you have any left.

And drinking lots of water is good. It keeps you hydrated and refreshes the cells. just don't overdo it. You could get water poisoning. Yes, it's a thing. No matter what, be sure to take good care of yourself.

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Dqbunny is actually the one who kept all the prints, so i,m not sure what we got. Shoot her a message, i,m sure she'll be more then happy to oblige! :D I'll let her know! :D

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Meg commented and told me to check the webcomic store. I may just do that!

[dqbunny.livejournal.com]

Edit: OK, ignore the last one. Just go over here to the Namesake store and I've got the prints listed. The original art all has its own listing, and the fanart prints are all under the con leftovers listing.

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Awww, no Last Unicorn listed... DD:

[dqbunny.livejournal.com]

I can get some more of those printed if there's enough demand.

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

LOL, somehow I doubt one person will be enough of a demand!

[dqbunny.livejournal.com]

I'll ask Isa about it. If five people want a Last Unicorn print, I'll get more done.

Those designs for childrens' clothing are adorable! Did you get to choose the animals? I love the polar bear hug! And the flapper has a great outfit.

My favorite vampire books are The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova and Sunshine by Robin McKinley. Have you read them? (And Dracula is fun too, naturally!)
