I promise I’m working on it. Taking a step back from the WoWs since I just took 2 characters from 80-85 back to back (Rei and Dinah) and finished capping their professions, and now I’m working on Gourmet Ramen. Wee~

On a weird note, Kestine nicked my leg trying to jump on the desk to flee from one of the newbie cats that was chasing him (WIMP!). It bled quite a bit but stopped just as quickly… and now there’s just… well, I THINK it’s water? Sure feels like it. All I know is that I have to keep sponging it. It doesn’t look like anything dangerous, so I’ll just have to wait it out. Or I could actually be an elemental mutant and this is how I get super powers. :P Just saying…

I should, like, try and sleep which of course means I’m actually going to play Angry Birds… going to stand by for the UPS dood around 10:30 because OMFG IPHONE. Mother only got one shipping notice and hasn’t gotten anymore and the order status console hasn’t said anything, so we’re guessing this shipment will have both our iPhones. I have my ringtones ready and just need to funnel them into Dinah’s iTunes so she can load ‘em up. :D :D :D

Sup, doods. Who got Gourmet Ramen marching orders? Me. Rather than doing each to completion before doing the next, working all 3 at once by phase (in this case, wireframe). Let’s dance.

PSP2!Chelsea (yup, these are for seraphzero). “I solve debates with guns!” or something. This angle is a punk, of course, but at the same time badass.

Avatar Asuka, armor redesign “Zero” since she got rebuilt. If you can see it, there’s evidence that I was going to give her a double-saber instead but the positioning wasn’t going to work, so back to twin sabers or something. Flaming energy wings will have to wait until the end of the paint phase, though.

This one in the commission order is pretty much a wildcard, and I ended up not using any of the prompts. Instead… RT!Chelsea, munching on popcorn while lying around… somewhere. I’ve not yet determined the context– is she on a giant Poring beanbag, or on a bed, or some Prinny commandeered to be used as a pillow? And what’s she laughing at? Maybe something on the sphere-TV. It’s not as messy as the other two since it’s not done yet, I stopped to post screencaps since I’m starting to blink over here.

They all look teeny because the PSD file is 1600×1200. Har har har.

Finishing the last wireframe and inking all 3 tomorrow, hopefully with fewer distractions.

FYI for doods who buy Gourmet Ramen: you have the option of sitting on Blastoise via TightVNC (I have LogMeIn, but TightVNC is better for these) and barking directions at me via Skype. Useful if you have super-specific details or you just want to make sure everything is right the first time.

Shiny armor is shiny!
Remake of Hikaru’s original FE Bromide. Numair’s probably getting a remake, too, but I’ve not yet decided on how that’ll look.

Also, I’m going to preemptively address a particular detail– that is Excalibur that Hikaru’s about to draw out. Not a…
Gah.
Maybe I should have just given her Omega Crescent, I forgot how Excalibur has a handle that has unintentional phallic optics if you can’t see the rest of the sword. (Of course, I remember a “WTF OUT OF LEFT FIELD” moment in Level 2 Drawing back at Chaffey in which my otherwise-awesome professor pulled some crazy interpretation about Excalibur and now I can’t unsee it and ohgod why am I going there?!)

…

I’m going to sit over there now.

No WIPs this time, just BOOM, arts.

So I said last post I’d be sketching Blastoise’s mecha body, right? Turns out I fail at drawing mecha, so I’ll, uh, put that aside for now. Have some RT!Kestine in shiny Dark Paladin armor… which may have entailed more Grand Theft FF4. (Specifically, I looted the shoulder plates and boots from Dark Knight!Cecil.) The detail was nowhere NEAR as much a pain in the ass as, say, Aries’ FE Bromide (which, as you know, is also Grand Theft FF4, sup Golbez armor) but then again this isn’t exactly ultimate-grade stuff.

For being a Dark Paladin, Kestine doesn’t have much in terms of plate armor… then again, he’s also a freaking Black Dragon. Sure, he COULD be plated to the teeth, but why bother when, should he get tossed around, he could just heal it all back anyway? Mmm, regen.

I need to scribble his Stem Gunner gear, since that’s what he wears in Episode 0′s main story. Stem Gunners get a mass-produced, simplified version of the Sneaking Suit. Also a hat. (Somewhere, Defeen’s ears perk up…)

You know, I could have totally pulled the whole “gender correctness” and added (and Sis) in the title, but… screw it. When she’s off duty, Hikaru wears guy clothes ANYWAY. I mean, she freaking wears BOXERS.
