A bunch of drawings, thinking about drawing a comic again etc..


um I don't know x'D Experimenting I guess..
Something random drawn at the back of a letter paper, for a penpal
This is actually for you,
anikakinka XD The package is on its way finally..
An original character, Zaharakem (damn, he needs a nickname..). I was just supposed to clean an old sketch but got a bit carried away...Also, it's really hard to design clothes for him >> I feel like recycling everything I like x'D
Another original character, Sechen, jumping around...That pose makes me laugh for some reason xD 
..aaaand one more original, Reevenn. He is hard to draw because I never get his facial features right..well, actually, I'm just too lazy to spend a lot of time on his face when it's just a sketch >>;;
umhh moar random designs.
A couple of tegakis:
Oh, I bought a huge ass gun encyclopedia the other day! I've wanted one ever since I saw one in our library, with drawn illustrations..I so wanted to take that book home haha. Sadly this one has photos but it's all good anyway since I love guns, esp. the old ones *_*
and finally, here's Edgeworth reading..something..man, I need to draw another picture of him since this one is rather..plain. It makes me laugh how my cousin (whom I also got to play the games) calls him Ruffle (or Röyhelö in Finnish) x'D That name has stayed, too.
So yeah, I'm really going to draw some small comic again. Be my witnesses as I say this so I can't take back my words that easily, haha xD It will be a little story revealing a bit from my character's, Fjännir's, past. I'm planning to make it b/w but the shading etc will be CGed.
I have the story pretty much figured, I just need to write it. I'm not sure when I get to work with the actual pages though, my commissions and some summer activities are keeping me busy enough for now. Plus I'm moving in the autumn so that takes some time, too..But the most important thing is that I'm getting started, right?
One reason why I'm trying to draw a comic again is to make peace with myself again..I think my previous attempts have been rather terrible so I haven't dared to think about them for a long time. Yes, you learn from your mistakes and I don't think they've been waste of time..but they still bother me, no matter what! Art causes so much joy but also so much pain...Because art is your creation, conveying what and how you think, feel and see..With comics it's not just about the drawings but also about the story, the writing, and it matters even more to me. So if I think my writing has failed, it feels like I've failed myself: The writing reveals how incomplete my thoughts are and how my thinking is shrouded.
In conclusion, I'm trying once again to show myself that I can do it and I can be content with my creations. I'll draw it only for the sake of myself and I'll try not to demand too much, either. I realize I just have to keep going and try again and again..and also accept the fact that I make mistakes all the time, but...so what?
