You know, I sat down to sketch tonight thinking, “I should draw something other than the [+/-] girls and mix things up a bit. An hour of idle scratching and brush experimenting and this happened.

I’ll try something more interesting tomorrow. I’m freaking beat after waking up ass early for jury duty then working a shift immediately afterwards. I got to hear a lawyer say “objection” once in person though. That was neat.

Picked up ClaDun x2 on something of an impulse last week, and it’s been pretty cool to unwind with. Not much to really review or comment on, though. It’s an action-RPG where you have the freedom to dick around with character sprites and run around dungeons. Guess where I started editing?

Sometimes I wonder whether my scanner is garbage or my penciling is too light and scratchy. Not like I post too many actual penciled drawings since I tend to be pretty sparse with the details and they aren’t much to look at.

Some stuff happened in the past couple weeks that’s gotten me looking at myself and how I deal with problems, what ticks me off, and what I really want to be doing with my life. I’m not going to emo on for pages about it, but the short version is that I’ve got a habit of walling up and just not doing anything once I finish the work day, which is why updates have been pretty sporadic lately. I’m taking some coding classes that are working the side of my brain that’s not used to the exercise (shut up in advance) on top of a change of position at work, and low but heavy on my priority list is getting some reliable transportation again since I live in a town with less-than-ideal mass transit.

So, I’m going to post more often. Sketches, rambles, hopefully congealing into actual pieces that will generate some amusement. I’ve been in and out of some really bad funks recently, and I think that as long as I have a creative outlet that I can use, I can take the edge off of my nerves, and just generally be more comfortable opening up.

Thanks for all your time, everyone. I’ll try to waste it the right way from now on.
