Just a man.

Hooray for lack of posting!
Wait...
wait... that's not right.
BOO for lack of posting! :(
BOOOOOOO >:(

All of my art energy has been put into work lately. I'm boarding on 'Rapunzel' which is so wicked sweet that i want to use every bead of energy i have rockin' on it. Unfortunately this leaves me pretty burnt out on my own stuff, but i'm working on fixing that. In the meantime, here's the entry i did for John Allison's 'Feats of Strength!' contest over at Scarygoround. I may have botched the entry procedure (on top of submitting it a wee bit late) so here's hoping it actually makes it into the running. In case it doesn't... here 'tis.

Today was a slow day at work. The project we're on just got through a major crunch, and we trainees just had our final review last week (the results of which are still out) so we all got to kick back a little.
Plus i'm FINALLY starting to wrap up my freelance illustration job and clear my conscience up a bit.
This meant that i got to do some "me" art (art for me!) and nicole got to find this awesome book-case chair:

We were trying to balance the chairs pure practical bitchin'-ness with how comfortable it might actually be to sit in (note lack of arm rests). I speculated:

Gave someone a little guff for lack of blog updates, so lest i fall vicitm to hypocrisy, here's some previously un-blogged art!
They're from at least four months ago, but ssssh, don't tell anyone.

About two shepherds

So i've been... "working" on this comic for a bit.
I haven't done any layouts, but i've got some story points scribbled down in a little notebook and i've drawn some characters! Nominally, it's about two shepherds, but mostly it's about one of them.

I've been trying in vain to color this but alas, my coloring skills are rusty.


Those are both relatively old. I did them over summer when i was bored, then stopped working on them when i was lazy and uninspired. However, today i found myself both inspired and motivated (during a story meeting when i should have been paying closer attention!) and doodled me some doodles!
Here're my thoughts on the Other Shepherd. I like the idea that he has a mustache but no nose. It just kind of grows out of his eyebrows.

The two shepherds next to eachother, mostly for size comparison. The Other Shepherd will probably get a little bigger.

The Little Shepherd trying to keep some kind of monster from eating his sheep. Other Shepherd will have some kind of monstrous flock, but not like this guy. He looks identical to way too much like Kingdok from "Bone", and that just won't do.

I'm doing work at work, and I've got a freelance illustration job that's been riding my back since September, which all adds up to a very empty sketchbook and not much "me" art at all this past month.
So i said to myself,
"Lissa," i says, "you've gotta do some art for you or you're going to lose it"
To which i replied "okay".
Sketch and inks that i'll color at some point:

I tried to research motorcycles, i really did. I came out with kind of a mish-mash in the end, but i'll just throw caution to the wind and call it a "chopper", because that's what this drawing's all about :)

Figured it was time to update!
Some highlights pulled from my sketchbook


I'd gotten in an argument discussion with a friend of mine about evolution and i'd been looking at a lot of T.S. Sullivant and BOOM, this quagga happened.
