Description I've been having a lot of art block lately, both of the mental kind and also the physical kind with all the stuff going on in my life lately.

So I found a cure for it.

Yeah...I don't recommend doing that. At least, not too often, it hurts, lol.

Still, this looks pretty good I think, really great details and colors.
Expression is priceless, lol.

Lol, there are probably better ways of curing art block than this technique.

As long as I can still do art, I'll always have a way to relax and escape form all this silly crap to clear my mind. Vent art can be especially effective and fun too!

A vacation would really be nice right about now. Tibet would be awesome! Maybe I could even be a monk for a day.

My real home looks nothing at all like this, more like the complete opposite. Crown moldings and plants would be nice though.

Lol, I don't have shoes anymore. They blew out and I had to throw them away due to the constant prodding by the sharp tacks. My sandals blew out the same day too but at least I have my boots. The drawing version of myself gets all the cool stuff but I suppose it comes with the price of being tormented by me.

I normally don't skip out on the basics when it comes down to the sketching process but I guess I was just having one of those derp days.

Thanks for noticing that. I'll have do better next time. lol ?=3

I love the anatomy really xD It's mostly correct, but it's a real nice style<33

The arm hair not bein' attached is sexy! xDD And the knuckles are a little funky is all.

What about the "bush" around the top of the.. house??? XD

Yeah I really half-assed that little detail by far but those are suppose to be vines, you know for decorating around your room and junk. I've seen them before at crafts 2000(art store)and I always wanted to decorate my room with plants and vines so I thought it would be neat to put them in this pic just for kicks.

As far as everything else I do have allot of "style" that I like to try out sometimes it turns out really neat other times ... all i can say is WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST DRAW HERE!? and just go with it. lol

If I had more time I might. I've been busy trying to finally get some comic work done after two months of obstructions and family drama to deal with. I don't know how much time I got before some new drama or emergency pops up and i have to go back home to deal with it. I almost dread hearing the phone ring nowadays.

Not to say that it doesn't work, because I've never tried it before, but that's a terribly destructive way of doing it. Permanent brain damage is a high price to pay.

Sometimes one must be destructive in curing art block. Good thing the drawing version of myself is indestructible...well, sorta. Speaking of brain damage, I'm getting back to doing some comic work finally.

I've working on DD66. It's about half-way penciled at the moment. I'm hoping to have it done either Monday or Tuesday if all goes well.
