Some movie black and white...

 

Aren't they cute? I just finished this little banner in photoshop. It's a "practice run" to get my photoshop skillz back (and they did come back. I am now at the same level of sucking at Photoshop as I was before. *sigh* Link, you gotta teach me some 'toshop moves, please). This drawing is based on season 2 of Avatar. The costumes are.... approximative. I could have gotten some reference shots, but I didn't really feel like it. The fact that Zuko is being walked on doesn't really express any type of specific hatred I have for the character, though I do kinda find him annoying until he decides to turn good (He reminds me of Gargamel...). He's mostly getting walked on because...Well, that's pretty much how I see him getting treated in season two, poor guy. I wanted to do shadows and stuff at first, but since I kinda wanted this to be a banner of such (and therefore small) I flattened out the colors. Mai is my favorite in this banner. The character's styles are inspired by a Quebecois-French comic book called "Les Nombrils" (the bellybuttons). I'm still waiting for book 4 of that series. When? WHEN?

Thanks to everyone for the encouraging messages about ass-to-artists guy. Turns out, he didn't want to pay at all and was shocked I asked. So I terminated my engagement with him permanently. I mean, really? Jerkface. But now I have ideas on how to formulate my contracts better, thanks to you guys.

I've got a few drawing projects I want to get done over the next few weeks. Lo and behold:
-Pages for Slayers Gears (aka Slayers steampunk version)
- Fairy Tale steampunk princesses (because I can biotches)
- Commission for Eveska
- Mini-contrat for person I like (one drawing. Can't kill me.)
- Banner for myself, Flowergirl and earthstar_chan
- Mini-story of BULB GIRL!
- Pages of Rose.
- Pages of Rose.
- Did I mention, pages of Rose?
- a few comics I have ideas for, and of course a few memes I got tagged for (seriously guys, I feel obligated to draw these XD)

-I also plan to sell this painting to a friend: (sexy mermaids mwahahaha)



-And send the Gigaslave Painting to it's buyer. Sorry for the delay Mike, but apparently the post office close to my job doesn't ship international (....I was like....what?)

Am I busy girl or what?
I'm off to Montréal this weekend though. I got a plush bird and I boyfriend I need to torture with it.

Over and Out!

Edit - I really screwed myself over with this Avatar banner. Not that I drew one for season 2, I wanna draw one for season 1 where Yue would be chased by the Gaang, followed by Zuko, Iroh, Zaoh and a big seas spirit of doom. And then i'd have to draw season 3. Gaang in firenation costumes + Suki + Zuko Fleeing a comet Firelord Ozai is riding.
