Star + Crescent


a formidable team

:'D

WIPpin'... WIPpin'...


Working on this nearly broke my heart today.
Now I do save my work on a regular basis...
but I just so happened not to today and I lost a lot of colouring work when the program crashed on me.

well, argh

Anyway, this is a new big illustration... big in the sense that it's 600dpi and 6963x4700 px.

aw yeah

might a poster for an upcoming Zenpop magazine?
might be a print to sell for when I do next attend another convention?
It'll be something anyway.

Also, about VERMILION...
there are still only five pages completed
that preview for Nom-Con... I don't think went ahead as I think the copies of the new mag weren't back in time

BUT

I am off to Portugal in less than 2 weeks time.
I hope that my arm will heal with the nice hot weather and swimming (and my neck as well - that started to act up because of it).
And so I hope to get the line art to a good few more pages done while I'm there.
I hope. It's hard to promise when the pain has been bad and staying there for a few days.
But I'll try my best. C:

Space Officer... Trixie?


This isn't the first time I attempted a gender bend of Triggs... but a definite 'yes' where Caoimhe's concerned.

Largely inspired by the gender-swaps of Adventure Time, I wanted to give it a proper try myself.

They turned out pretty alright I guess... Caoimhe was gonna be awkward to swap anyway, but Triggs... damn, he might as well be a female... =u=;

BUT NAMES
YES

Prolly surprising for most, Caoimhe's name is not difficult to get a male version of - 'cos in reality it would be Kevin. 'Caoimhe' is an Irish female take on the name Kevin. So yeah, it works.

Triggs was a different matter though. 'Triggs' - short for Trigger - has no female alternative, so a name that rhymed was in order...

Trixie. It's close enough. :L
