I was just looking through my art and feeling really nostalgic for the characters in my comics. I haven’t worked on my comics in ages. That makes me pretty sad… These illustrations are between one and two years old.

Here’s the next page. I also edited all the previous pages to make them more awesome based on a critique I had. I’ll post those later.
Here’s kind of what I’m thinking. I’m going back to starting the story with Kay and Kaipo like I did back in my first draft. It’s going to be great.
EDIT:
Here’s some new and improved stuff.
Hello.
Yes. I’m back from Europe…. As of a month and a half ago. I’ve been slow to start making art again….
BUT! I made this cool illustration today because someone requested it on Deviant Art. It’s a pretty cool one! The pose is either really neat or really weird. I haven’t decided yet, haha…. BUT IT’S NEW ART SO IT’S AWESOME, OK?
Also, I’ve never done an action blur like this before. How’s the effect? I love trying new things! It makes me feel like an artist again!
Here’s my first comic page done with cell-shading.
Not sure about the dialogue yet. I’m still working on some of the new story-line elements. I knew how I wanted to start this scene, though, which is why I completed this page out of nowhere. Fun!
It’s finals week next week, and then I go to Europe two weeks after that, so may be MIA for while. We’ll see!
Finally! I am so proud of this one. Like, really really. This is what I want to do.
I might be taking Spirit Bond in a new direction after this. I’m sure that will be a good thing.
While designing Araya, the main character of Spirit Bond, I made a small 3-D sculpture known as a maquette. This was an extremely challenging project, but it was well worth it. After all, I know have a small model to use as reference material when drawing this character.
She is made of polymer clay with a wire metal armature for structure. The armature is hooked into a wooden base. The whole thing was then sprayed with a gray primer. It was supposed to be matte gray, but I used a glossy one on accident, which is why she’s a little overly shiny. All in all, I’m very proud of this sculpture!
