Quorra

Quorra from Tron Legac, 2-2.5 hours
Had difficulty with her smile and a little bit with the colours but I really liked drawing her eyes. They're so expressive.

Rachael

Spent about 2 hours last night making a first attempt at a colour portrait (only ever done black and white); big learning curve but a great experience. I used a movie frame of Rachael from Blade Runner as reference. Likeness, good; colours, not so much.

Mushroom Lady

Coloured the ink drawing I did last week in photoshop. Thinking that she's in need of becoming a sticker for my laptop some time soon. Also like the first thing I've ever drawn that I think would make a good print.

Ink

Started doing inks by hand again. I found this really fun so now all I want to do is draw things with a brush pen.

Famine

Famine - Good Omens
Second last in the series (man, am I happy about that). I had the most trouble with him for a variety of reasons, the biggest being that I didn't actually have a good idea of what he looked like and that he was supposed to blend into a 90's setting (90's clothing is the most heinous clothing ever).

Block printing

Tried my hand at lino block printing for the first time since high school. I got about 7 good prints thus far. These are some of my favourites, a pair done on textured paper. The slight translucence of the paper didn't scan but you can see the texture in the black ink.
For some reason I think that lino prints should be macabre (probably because of the graphic nature and the fact that I only have black ink right now) so all my ideas for prints are horror-inspired.
