I have been busy paying the billz and having a birthday, but you may be happy to know that comic drawing will be happening again THIS VERY WEEK. I also have a couple lingering commission requests (Mike! Doyle!) to working during my holiday break time. I am not the fastest, but I do get things done. Eventually.
I did manage one small art project in the months since the last update, though I couldn’t safely talk about it til now. My good buddy David recently proposed to his girlfriend Jen via a comic book that he wrote and asked his friends to illustrate. Here is a video of the proposal:
AUGH. Isn’t that just the best?
Here is the page that I drew, if you want to see it closer.
Here’s another commission I finished up recently. As you can probably tell, this was done as a birthday present and the recipient’s favorite character is Fathom.
This was my first time using watercolors in roughly one thousand years, and I think it turned out pretty well. I also used some colored pencils on top to add some shading and clean up the edges.
Sometimes, instead of drawing comics and such, I do graphic and web design.
Actually no, that is pretty much all of the time right now. Forgive me, Comics! I’ll be back soon!
Anyway, below is a fun thing I designed for use as a t-shirt graphic for the upcoming Game Days event at Disneyland, put on by the fine fellows at Mega64. Greg and I went last year and had a ridiculously good time—this year, we’re coming equipped with our own shirts.
If you are going and would like to use it to make shirts, I’ve uploaded a couple of files for you.
Here is the finished color version of the in-progress Tara commission I posted the other day. It was drawn on a piece of Bristol board that had been signed and personalized by Amber Benson. Fun!
Done with the usual Prismacolor art markers and colored pencils. Click for the full version.
I’m Stephanie. Sometimes I create self-published comics with writer Carrie Smith under the company name Conjoined Comics. I post sketches and other things here when I can.
I have just completed work on the first collection of “To The Power Against” issues.
