Severan and Ananthe

Severan and Ananthe, 2017, Pencil, ink and Painttool SAI

This was supposed to be just a sketch! I got a bit too excited.

 I think both Severan’s and Ananthe’s clothes are a bit too fancy in this, Severan is just a murder-hobo crawling in the dark & murk of the City and Ananthe, while much more regal is just a pretty well to do healer, not a king or anything… His favorite pastime is embroidery, though, so he’s decorated those robes himself. Severan’s favorite pastimes include getting on Ananthe’s nerves, eating people and making bad life choices.

We also need close-ups, here we have Severan.

And here Ananthe.

Spring and Summer Annoucements

First of all, my seminar paper is done and submitted for reviewing! Yay! Now there’s like a week of fooling around before all that other shit I need to get done.

 So, I started drawing Severan and Ananthe, my two rather new characters from an original setting of mine. Severan is a young, brazen (read: stupid) and moody meat-eater elf , with a bit of cat in his blood. He is also a reiteration of my old Dark Heresy character, but way less like Kanda. Like totes.
 Ananthe (right in the picture) is far older and wiser, half and half of a regular elf and a meat-eater elf. He and Severan have a complicated relationship which has a lot of Ananthe being pretty fed up with Severan’s bullshit, like in this picture.

 Then, for the summer~ I will be attending several events this summer!

• I will try my wings at a new event, the Dark Market of Lumous Gothic Festival on the 15th of July in Tampere! There's no entrance fee to this event, so if you're in Tampere come say hi to me~
• Then there's of course the course on Manga I will be teaching in Joutseno straight after Lumous.
• I've also booked a table from Ropecon (28th-30th July, Helsinki) this year too, so you will find me in the dealers' den, again!
• Me and my partner in crime, Pihlajatar, also got a table from Creators' Alley in Worldcon 9th-13th of August

So far these are the confirmed events that I will be attending, I'll keep you posted about new ones as I confirm participation~

 Don't forget that next weekend I will be in the Comics festival of Stockholm! If you happen to be there, do come say hi ^^

AND, my exhibition is open until 17th of May, so five days left if you want to see it! Thank you all who have already visited the exhibition, I loved reading the guestbook when I popped in last week!

Doodling cat-elves

I haven’t been able to draw much after finally finishing that comic. Just too tired, and busy with trying to graduate as quickly as possible.

But a fun little event of male beauty by the name Magic Meat March over in Tumblr was too good of an excuse to doodle my very emancipated half-elf half-cat equal parts sexy and awesome stripper-librarian darling Mizane. I even googled for sexy librarian poses but ended up doing almost exactly the same pose I originally did of him by accident – or just sheer exhaustion…

Enjoy this half an hour doodle of him, and let's hope I get myself back in the game next month. I am thinking of drawing my next mini-comic about him, though~

Yukicon

A batch of new and old bookmarks and prints ready for the artists’ alley of Yukicon (Messukeskus, Helsinki)! Stickers are on the way.

I’ll be there on Sunday 10-16 on table nr. 21 with these lovelies and a ton of other art! See you there~

Get to know the Lindel Mohan

As many of you probably know, Liehu is my DnD character. We had a session last Sunday and I doodled him, and his valiant lynx Kille yet again. This time I couldn't just stop there but did a whole Get to know the character -meme out of it (thanks to a boring old lecture)! So here he is, in all of his scatterbrained, but well meaning glory!

Höyrymarkkinat

First prints of my magnificent Ninavel, and some new bookmarks for the Steam Hellsinki Christmas fair today! Both are an extremely limited run this time, so if you see something you like, come and grab it~~

Sneaky peeky & Lindel Mohan

As I mentioned earlier, my autumn and the works I am crrently busy on are such that I cannot reveal them just yet. Some take more and some take a little less time, but I am sitting on some nice stuff at the moment... Thus, I have become impatient and will share an ultra sneaky sneak peek of one of the things I'm working on:

teehee!

We've also recently started playing our oldish DnD campaing more regularly, and have been sketching my character the elven sorcerer/druid by the name Lindel Mohan more and more as we play. He is about as cute as a young elf can get, making him a really elusive character for me to capture. These are just some attempts! The cat is his familiar Aya, and nowadays he has some druidic companions too, in the form of a lynx and two kittens; named Kille, Shai & Aurinko respectively.

If Liehu survives you'll see more of him!

Drawn in blood

 When I draw guro I do it all the way.

 I'm drawing again, I mean I finally have time to draw again. I'm making an artbook of the best stuff I've done in the past years and with a few new pieces ^^ Stay tuned for updates!
 Also the sparkling catladykiller here is Homer a temporary cat at my humble home. He is amazing, always happy to help me do anything.


... (It's not really blood)

Looking back

 First my apologies for the prolonged silence in the blog, school has indeed kept me quite busy in the past few months. But apart from that, I feel like this has been the best art year I've had since I graduated Hyvinkään Taidekoulu! I mean look at all these bootsies:

(From left to right Shura & Maelener, Maelener again, Mizane, the yet nameless Sorcerer and my lovely Vandir)

I wish to thank everyone who has been a part of my life this year, and I hope next year will also be prosperous to us all!
And I haven't been completely dead artwise, I've had time to doodle up crappy pictures of cat-boys:
