I Swear I Have Been Doing Something These Past Few Weeks!

I swear I have been doing something these past few weeks!

It's all very exciting, the Inspired crew have finished our new anthology, Science Fiction Octuple Feature, (which Sammy is taking to various comic shops and will also be available at Thought Bubble this November) and within a week of finishing my comic for that I got two very interesting commissions from people I don't know personally (and one from my Mum, which doesn't really count). The downside is that with all this group work and paid work, I've not got much that I'm at liberty to post online until later this year.

To prevent my blog being totally dormant, here are a couple of pages I doodled up during church. I wouldn't feel right doing paid work in church, so it's the only time I've been free to draw whatever I feel like.

Even if it sometimes turns out a bit weird because I forgot to bring a pencil and had to do it in gel pen.

I hope I'll be able to show you some of the paid work soon, it's very exciting for me to be getting work from strangers for the first time, instead of from friends or family members. (Or more often, friends of family members.)

P.S. I've added an 'art' tag, so that you don't have to wade through all the Disney gifs and feminist pop-culture critique I've been reblogging if you're just here for the doodles.

Will you all cease to respect me as a serious grown-up person if I admit this is my favourite Disney love story?

P.S. I am such an animation geek for this film, it's a story that REALLY benefits from the animated medium.

YUSSS it was the best of days! We must do it again as soon as I am employed by someone who is not myself. XD

...

Also we got to ‘very awkwardly walk down the stairs by Jamie Hewlett in silence’ as Sammy put it. Because we are the SMOOTHEST PEOPLE.

Haha, I put that link for you. It's Beth!! Hannah's sister, haha. I really enjoyed your long talks about your worlds :]

AHA! I wondered if it was you! Thank you for listening to my endless chatter like that, I only realised later that it was a bit weird to ramble on to a complete stranger about my strange imaginings. ^_^;

I hope my blog doesn't disappoint!

Yea and verily I have finally got round to scanning these, so here are the last few pictures I drew in my journal in 2011. They got a bit lazier because I was not very cheerful at the time, but some of them came out pretty fun.
