Sketch-A-Day 019- Progress In General
I’ve been working on a new [+/-] strip for reals. Man, it’s easier to sketch things out in SAI. It behaves a bit more like ‘real’ tools which is good and bad since I’ve never been great with actual paint. The only drag is it seems to have a harder limit on max file size, so I’ll probably still have to patchwork the individual ‘pages’ together into one long strip. Hopefully I can finish that up this week and make my ‘at least monthly’ guideline for that series.
Here, have a warm up sketch of a character in a game I don’t actually play.
Sketch-A-Day 018- Waaaaarm
A pretty accurate depiction of how I deal with damp, cold, achey days like today. Like, in all seriousness, cold and snow don’t bother me as much as “kinda” cold and wet conditions. Only thing that helps is to kill the furnace and sit next to a space heater.
Also, hey! I’m getting a shot at visiting PAX East! I’ll probably be wandering around looking kind of spaced while wearing a jacket with Servbot pins on it. I’m not sure what the Venn diagram of “people who read this site” vs “people who attend PAX” looks like, but there surely must be some kind of overlap.
Right?

Sketch-A-Day 016- Dee Study
Fun facts about Dee Chelle: Loves American action movies, and hopes to make one some day. Regards James Cameron about the same way Dixie regards Square-Enix. Her ‘icon’ is a multiplication symbol for no real reason other than to play off of Eishi and Dixie’s + and -. I can’t decide on an outfit for her like, at all. Despite referencing them as “evil twins” or “bizarro” versions of Eishi and Dixie, it’s not especially clear cut who is supposed to be the ‘stand in’ for the originals, though while writing them, she and Dixie grind each others gears the worst.
She’s also secretly my favorite to draw between the ‘devil horn’ twin-tails and exaggerated grump face. Dee is practically Dixie’s face on Eishi’s body, I guess.
