Tip Pictures!

I’ve finished the tip pictures! Hurray!

Some logistics - First of all, I had the art card prizes ready to mail out, and found them all ready to go, sitting with my shipping stuff, so I’m sorry those didn’t actually get into the mail, yet.  I thought I’d dropped them off, and am doing that now.  My next project is getting the tip pictures in the mail, too.  If you have not yet sent me an email with your address, and tipped more than ten dollars last Icon Day, send me an email with how much you tipped and your address, with the subject line ICON DAY NINE.  The picture you get will be randomly determined based on what category you’re in!

Here’s the art, behind the cut!  Enjoy!  I will be posting Icon Day 10 and some new commission info, shortly.  If you read this on my blog, Icon Day only goes on my livejournal, which is http://www.livejournal.com/~djinni

A Monster

Here is a friendly blue monster!

Things are going well on my end - I need to finish some commissions, and then tackling the icons.  I don’t have final, good quality photos of the mural, quite yet.  I do have a tiny, tiny garden out on my balcony now, though - cilantro, catnip, spinach and lettuce.  We’ll see how well that goes, and then I’ll get some more herbs and stuff.  Comics will update tomorrow, because it’s Saturday, probably late morning, early afternoon.

Some Monsters

A few folks have linked to their monsters in the prior post - check ‘em out!

Here’s what I’ve drawn.  ETA - I put the ACEOs up in my etsy shop.  I’m keeping the chimera and the bunny :3  I hope all of you who celebrated Monster Day, today, had a good time!  I’m still hanging out and doodling, but am pretty relaxed and unproductive, now… and that’s good, too.

SODA?!

Daily ACEO, Sword and Sorcery ACEOs and Ekwara sneak preview

I’ve started a daily challenge of making an ACEO a day.  I want to see how long I can keep that up.  I’ll be putting my results up in my etsy store, which you can visit by clicking on the ACEO, and on here, so I have a good header for a daily post.  I’d really like to stick with making a post a day here in my blog.

I’ve been going to the Monday meetings of the Bellingham School of Comics on Monday evenings, at an awesome coffee shop in town called the Black Drop.  I try to show up a little early, and I end up getting a lot of work done on Ekwara.  I am now halfway done penciling Chapter Two, believe it or not.  Here is a sneak preview of page 14, which is Sparrow and Ginger’s intro, and also includes West Raven, who’s also introduced in this chapter, in his bird form.  Some of you might remember an ACEO I did last year for Bird Day of West in his more human-like form, here.

I think the white elephant Sword and Sorcery ACEOs have reached folks at this point, but I’m putting them behind a cut here, in case someone’s still waiting for their envelope, and doesn’t want to spoil the surprise!  This was definitely a fun project.

Guess what? ART!

Here are three finished pictures, two behind the cut!  I know one friend who watches this journal likes to be warned about zombies, so, be warned, one picture is a (parody) zombie.

When all of the icons are penciled, I’ll be uploading those, too.

Daily Post and Holiday Card Printout

I think it would be fun to do a daily post, for my site and my livejournal, since this posts in both places. I’ll have to think of things I’d like to touch on each day, or decide to simply make a point to write about what I’m working on and what’s on my mind.

Of course, comics are updated for today.

If I’m going to be doing daily posts, I will remind everyone to go read Arcadia Snips on Monday!

Today, I have a holiday card you can download and print out to send to folks, if you’d like! I did this last year and people seemed to get good use out of it, so here’s a new one! The image is free to use, change and distribute, as long as my url stays on the back, and no one’s making money off of it. Feel free to add your own caption and inside message, for whatever holiday you celebrate this season.
