secondlinaI kinda like this habit I took up during the summer. After a while, I got sick of never updating this journal. So I decided to stop inking most of the sketches I post here, since inking was time-consuming and I hated it. So I sacrificed quality for frequency, and started doing more posts and felt a lot less frustrated. I also avoided postponing the posting of drawings until they were inked and therefore posting notes "late" (meaning that to me, they did not have the same diary value as the time the sketch was done).
Despite my workload, I want to keep on updating this journal a few times a week. I think the whole ditching the inking part really helped to the expension of my comic diaries. I,m quite proud of the work I did here and I am determined to keep on posting. A lot.
Of course, i'm not THAT creative, and sometimes no comics will be posted. Only drawings. XD Mwahaha.
I really like this sketch I did after I finished the dramatic slayers short story.
It's me as Lina,earthstar_chan as Sylphiel, ichiban_victory as Amelia, savvyliterate as Filia and yukiomoni as L-sama. The sketch is not good enough to make a nice drawing, but it provides a nice idea for one! ^^
I also drew this...My D&D character, Melisande. She is a half-elf paladin (Yeah, I know ichiban. I wanted dwarf but apparently draft paladins can't be, so I picked half-elf. *laughs*) She works for the temple of the goddess of the wind Ayla and is searching for her father, paladin for the god fire, that disapeared with the temple a while back. She hides her ears under her hair because half-elves aren't very loved. ^^ I like the design a lot.
I also re-designed the cover for the re-print of the Doujin "home"...here is the sketch:
ichiban_victory I expect you to tell me if you think it fits XD
Well, i'm off to eat supper (FISH!!!!!) and to watch the last harry potter ^^

I like the cover, it will look great when it's coloured. I would like to read "Home" too. I would be more than willing to pay for that along with the doujin that you're already making. ^_~

"Home" is currently being scanned and fixed for re-print.
I will post Home up for sale before Slayers clone.

I found it helped me a lot to get better at inking and using line values.
