Mareep~
Another Pokemon Vector. Done for fun, though this one was much faster. I have a few more in the works, but we'll see how long it takes me to finish them.

Hazama!
Hazama from BlazBlue! Two versions of this because his actual Sprite colors mean there is an assault of GREEN! Done rather quickly. I'll probably be cleaning this up before making a full print of this.

Tokyo Manga and Anime Ban
To all of you Manga and Anime lovers out there,
In light of recent events, Japan has been struggling. The death toll is high, and eveyone's heart is broken for those who have been struck by this tragedy. What I have to pass on next, to me at least, represents the next wave of destruction. Before I get into this, I need to clarify at the core, this has nothing to do with Anime and Manga. If this were any other mass ban, I would be just as horrified. Don't get me wrong, I love it death but I'm more concerned about the absolute restriction of media that this represents. When a culture starts restricting its media to this degree, bad times are ahead. Think the book burnings of the Dark Ages.
Tokyo Manga and Anime Ban
I am appalled by this. I love media. Morally, I know that not all media is good media, and there are a lot of questions raised by the sheer amount of it that the current generation is being exposed to through TV, the internet, Magazines, Comics, etc., but this is not how you handle the situation. Banning the material isn't going to stop its influence. This Ban is going to kill an entire Sub-Culture that has greatly influenced Art, Video Games, Movies, almost everything of the current generation not only in Japan, but around the world. Personally my life would be so different without the influence of Anime and Manga. It was one of the catalysts to get me really into the nitty gritty of art, not to mention its how I became connected with most of my friends now.
I'm in shock. My mind still hasn't processed the Natural Distaters in Japan, and now this Cultural one?
This is going to have deep ramifications, mark my words.
P.S.
Commissions for Japan are still on. They will stay on for a long, long time. Let me know.

Personal Art
Meh my Junior Art Review is comming up. Lame. This means I actually have to submit my 'best' work that has never been shown in a gallery before. It must also be part of my concentration as an Art Major.
Most of my work has been shown in a gallery.
Most of my work doesn't fall under my concentration.
I am freaking out a bit.
Here are some WIP shots from what I've been doing to get this shit done.

Pokemon Vectors?
Hey, so I was in the mood to draw some Pokemon, and my friends suggested I do Froslass. Being all cool, I did a vector version and now I'm wondering whether or not I should do a series.
Thoughts, concerns?
Pokemon (c) to Nintendo.

Jill Valentine Update
Remember that sketch I did of Jill? I am so totally working on the final version of that. Occasionally I need to remind myself that I'm a digital artist...
Rough Colors
I still have a lot of work to do, but its progress. I hope to get this done, and possibly do another image of Jill depending on how well this one comes out. Woo guns!
