Mr Octopus says...

Because I'm going to Comiket today! Quite excited to see what's there, not been to it before, and my friend Rob of Orful Comics fame is going to be there, as well as Philippa Rice. So I'll catch you later, I'll take some pics to put up tomorrow.

Ack almost a month

That was not the plan when I made this blog! An upload a month is hardly a commitment. Although it is much easier to feel creative on your second weekday off in a row, when I haven't already had my face attached to a screen for 8 hours. Not that I don't love my job, but sometimes you need to give your eyes a break!

I scribbled this, and then started trying to 'paint' it. But boy do I suck at painting without a reference. I know how things should look, but they always come out look weird and bloated or flattened. Would love to attend a class of some description. So rather than ruin the drawing I slapped some shade on underneath and played with the lighting.
