I'm back, babeh!

Whew. This was a long break. I decided to do as less drawing or art-related things as possible during my xmas break. I needed a break from drawing. As much as I love it, all my contracts and stuff are killing my free time and turning drawing into a chore. I drew a little of course (deadlines oblige) and I tried out my new graphic tablet, with Link giving me a few pointers on stuff. Turns out we actually own the same model of graphic tablet. For years now, I've been using this tiny wacom my friend Fauve lended me. Having a much bigger, badder tablet feels a little weird, since i'm used to the smaller one, but it's still pretty sweet.

I bought a pile of comics to read, unfortunatly, the pile did not include Slayers Knight of Aqualord since the french comic is not currently available in Canada (there is 3 months in between it's publication and it's importation to Canada. It was published on the 27th of november, meaning i've still got a while to wait! NNNNOOOO!)

Today I finished (WITH MY TABLET!!!!) my drawing the the Slayers X-mas exchange on theslayers 
I'm posting it here because it's my first official art with my tablet and because whomever will see it on theslayers will know it's my drawing anyways (the style kinda says it all)



Oh, and 2009 resolutions? Hummm....

You have to metaphorically make a deal with the devil. And by "metaphorically," I mean get your coat

I'm slightly disapointed in Futurama. The fourth season has the best episodes and then, nada. I only hope the tv movies will bring a few plots to conclusion (mostly i'd like Leela to acknowledge Fry loves her. I mean c'mon!? What's a guy to do? He risked his life for her and told her he loved her almost once per episode. Sheesh)

I am, however, totally into Bender. Go Bender.



I drew a few skecthes a while back for a silly love story. Unfortunatly my plot seems to be going nowhere.

The basic story was about a japanese child who's father - a famous tea ceremony expert - had discovered the secret of the tea of immortality. To protect this secret, he wrapped up a pouch of the immortality tea around his son's heart and destroyed the parchemin with the recipe. His son becomes a cool samurai who's wounds heal very quickly due to the tea. An evil sorceress finds out and tries to convince him to give up his heart to her. He says nay (cuz he rocks that way) and she's pissed. She zaps him to a hellish place - which turns out to victorian england. He roams the streets until he meets a young shopkeeper who works in her father's teahouse. She and the samurai work together and the teahouse becomes the toast of london. the sorceress gets angry, zaps to england and menaces the teashop girl. The samurai then wants to save her or something. Gah, my ending is non-existent.



Suggestions?

And yes, the tea can turn people into zombies.
