Concept: Sailor Gastra
Concept: Sailor Gastra December 2008: Concept: Sailor Gastra
This is one of my own otaku senshi (fan-created Sailor Soldier, based on Naoko Takeuchi’s Sailormoon). For those of you who are in the know: Sailor Gastra is part of my team of Outer Asteroid Senshi, who protect the galaxy from psychic attacks, one of which is happening in London roundabout the same time the solar eclipse happens in Tokyo (beginning of Sailormoon SuperS)…

Commission: Sailor Sun & Io (also: Io separately)
Sailor Io December 2008: Sailor Io
This is part two of that bigger commission for burgerbecky. I had some trouble with the colors on this one. Yellow is a tricky one for me to add shadow!
Sailor Sun & Io December 2008: Sailor Sun & Io
This is the full and actual commission for burgerbecky. First fully painted Sailor Soldier commission and two characters as well! Great lesson in oh so many ways! :)

Commission: Sailor Sun & Io (pt1, Sun)
Sailor Sun December 2008: Sailor Sun
This is part one of a bigger commission of two characters. And because I love Sailor Soldiers I offered to create a piece of each character individually in addition to the final piece. This is Sailor Sun and the next one will be Sailor Io. Based on the character description I chose to give her a certain masculine feel so yes, that was a conscious choice. ;)

DoM: Kaelee
DoM: Kaelee December 2008: DoM: Kaelee
I went about coloring this in a different way this time. I sort of started with the background gradients, then added flats for the costume and then used a copy of the background for highlighting in dodge mode! She feels like she’s part of the environment more than any of my previous DoM girls did. Babysteps! :)

DoM: Kaelee (lineart)
DoM: Kaelee (lineart) December 2008: DoM: Kaelee (lineart)
Finished both commissions so it was time to get back to my DoM girls! I love Kaelee! I really like how her costume came out. I had designed it prior to this drawing but it, as well as her personality, evolved while drawing this. FUN!

Commission: IV Costume
IV Costume November 2008: IV Costume
This was commissioned by Katrina. She only ordered the lineart, but because she’s my best customer and because I was having a good time with this piece I decided to add some color, too! I kept the colors simple though, considering that someone would be referencing it to create the costume.

Commission: IV Costume
IV Costume November 2008: IV Costume
This was commissioned by Katrina and the drawing was supposed to serve as reference for the person who would make that costume for her. So not my usual pinup work and I welcomed the challenge!
