Wobbly Hands

Today wasn’t a very good day, as far as inking and drawing went. It was a bumpy ride, with lots of do-overs and hair pulling. It’s been day 4 since my doodling has started acting up. Nothing has been turning out the way I want, and I’m tired of mucking around all over the place. Tch. Finally, I caved and decided to use a pen again just to warm up a little.

So folks, after much drama- here’s my tribute to the glorious movie I had every pleasure viewing last night. IT WAS SO, SO, SO GOOD. Crap, something on my top 5’s gotta give just to make room.

I’m behind…

I know CerealSat’s only a week old or so, but it grates my nerves having to admit that I’m behind on updates. Especially since I’ve had a couple of stories to tell. I guess I just feel somewhat constipated in terms of my style. I’m still trying to get a firm grip on how I’ve been drawing lately… brushes are nothing like the sharpies and artlines of my past. Everything looks sloppy and it’s slowing me down. :/ Lordy I hope these aren’t the symptoms of an oncoming rut.

Don’t Make Me

I practiced with my Pigma Pen some more when I got home last night, and I’ve been inking up a storm… Sadly, it’s not the wedded bliss I thought it’d be. Here’s last night’s doodle page- back when things were still ok. =_= What happened you ask? It’s only been 48 hours, right? Well. We’re working on it, but if this crap keeps up we’re totally breaking up.

Let’s just chock this up to lessons in getting-to-know-your-equip. Problem is, it led me on. The Pigma “brush” pen, is TECHNICALLY not a brush at all! It’s really just a soft marker, with a fiber tip. The problem is that the fine fiber tip doesn’t stay fine very long. It’s wont to split up a bit at the ends after some use (and lemme tell you, I’ve been PRACTICING.) 48 hours after I declared eternal love, it starts gunking up all over the place. *shakes head*

I thought what we had was special. So instead of clean, flowing lines, you’ve got clumsy, wobbly work. Say good-bye to details. I’m trying to compromise by drawing BIGGER. Maybe that’d work, right? Well.. we’ll just have to see. But in the mean time, let’s take a look at happier times:

Happier Times

Happier Times

Note: This didn’t actually HAPPEN. I was sitting down, sulking over my Pigma Pen and imagined it all in my head like some sort of schadenfreude high dipshit. So.. Yeah. I’m not really a bitch. Only an imaginary one. / disclaimer.

Makin’ (Whatcha) Love!

Okay, so here I go.

I apologize to anyone who’s stumbled on this site… I need to get onto some serious decorating. Maybe some new curtains, a coffee table and a rug that matches the wall paper. What do you think? Think of this as a soft opening of sorts. I’ve just been itching to finally SAY something here at CerealSat- fugliness aside. It’s just that I’ve been relying on eljay for so long, I must admit I feel silly blogging like this when I can’t even say for certain ANYONE is out there. Even shopping around for page lay-outs has been intimidating.  (But that’s why I’ve got you, right Jam? Many thanks again :o)

HOWELL. Let’s do this right. Here’s basically what I’ve got going on back at the old place, but let’s try to get serious about this moving out business, yeah?

And so without further ado… tadaaa:
