Sky-People Sketches!

I've discovered it's fun to draw people with wings. When I have time and have improved my art skills I hope to have a full-scale story about these sky-people (and a few others) but until then these will have to do.
Also I'm terribly sorry that I've become derailed from actual comics with all these sketches! I promise some fresh comics up next week or... ah... when I've stopped procrastinating...

Manga skecthes

I've been going through a bit of a manga style phase at the moment so here are a few of my doodles!

Fluttershy! (sketch)



































Oh and here is a slightly more successful scan of a character sketch of the contrarian from the last comic!
I hope to have some more manga character sketches up tomorrow. Have a loverly day now.

No one ever suspects the butterfly! And well they shouldn't.


First of all, this is a pretty good example of horrible scanning. See that black blob that looks like a Rorschach test is spilling out of the little manga adrogyne's eyes? That's meant to be a coloured laser burning the little mean butterfly. It spoils the joke a little but I was set on getting another comic up today and anyway now that I've explained the gag to you it should be alright. Right?... I'll try uploading this again at a later date when I have access to a proper scanner.

Hipster innovation

It begins!

Hello people of the internet!
Here is my li'l blog featuring my li'l comics. I was on livejournal but then soon discovered that no one seems to be on livejournal and it's incredibly awkward to navigate. So here's a new improved site for my sporadic thought and drawing needs!
Thanks again to Mark for helping me set this up!
