My Holiday cards arrived a couple days ago! And I'm thrilled with how they came out this year!


I love the lime green matching envelopes~


Poem by *actoratheart!


Bunny on the back because I had to. ;;

This makes me want to keep making cards. A Valentine set would be so much fun to design, or a general stationary set. Fffff I am such a sucker for cute stationary.


So since Thanksgiving, I have been working away on the first of a six issue comic series for ~dandelionstudios. Not sure how much I can say about it, but I'm very excited to be doing this series for them. It's been a lot of fun to draw so far, and I'm really liking the characters and story. Hopefully I will be able to post some page previews here in the near future.

Although I've been really enjoying working on this comic, my right hand started giving me problems this week. I got a wrist brace yesterday to wear at night, so hopefully that will help. I thought carpel tunnel was something that developed after years of excessive drawing, not days, or even hours. Thank you to those who commented on my last poll - your insights to using a brace have been really helpful. I'm thinking of getting a little wrap-around one I can wear while drawing. And I may have to put commissions on hold while I finish up this first issue. I just don't have the time or strength to work on anything other than this comic until it's finished.

...And when it is finished, I am going to pour all of the pages all over the floor and happily roll in them~ So far fifteen are complete, and I'm working on page sixteen and seventeen simultaneously right now. That puts me at the halfway mark to being done. I have to do one to two pages each day in order to finish on time, but I'm confident I will and that it'll look great.

And at least I have coco-cinnamon coffee to get me through my day. :heart:


Happy first night day of Hanukkah to those celebrating!

Dear Sekrit Santa,

...Yeah, I just want art of my OC's like everybody else loool;;; SO ORIGINAL.

If you like to draw girls, could you please draw my Death mage, Mada for me? Either as a bitchy teenage goth loli or a bitchy grown-up fashion editor.
More reference: x . x . x

And if you like to draw guys, I would like a Jasper please~ he is my D&D Fire mage, (Fffff so many mages, sorry). Jasper is usually very grumpy and lighting stuff on fire.
More reference: [NSFW] . x . x

If you don't like either of them, then feel free to pick somebody in my gallery of original artwork. If a character shows up in there more than once, chances are I kinda like that character. And if you don't like anything in there, then I guess you don't have to draw me anything. :'C

OH AND if you are of the prose-types, then uh... talk to *actoratheart about my OC's because she'll be able to tell you all kinds of stuff for prose. She probably knows things about my characters that I don't because she's my DM and she plans out horrible things to put my characters through. 8[

SORRY THAT WAS LONG - I just wanted to make sure I left this nice and open ended enough for whoever got me. I'M PRETTY MUCH COOL WITH WHATEVER YOU WANNA PICK. ; u ; Please and thank yooou and have a wonderful Holiday~ <3

Fall quarter finals are well underway here at SCAD, and soon I'll be packing up and moving back to sunny California for a long winter vacation. But I plan to do lots of lots of comics for ~dandelionstudios between Thanksgiving and Christmas, so the arting never really ends~ And after New Years, I'm going to France! Aaahhh, so excited... *__*;;;

So I've been meaning to plug this for a while, but my friend *actoratheart started up this really interesting blog about Online DMing (Dungeon Mastering?) at the start of Fall quarter for a web writing class. And it's AWESOME. If you've ever wondered about how the heck a dice-based role playing game could possibly be run online, *actoratheart has some wonderful insights for DMs, players, and role playing lovers alike, both on and off the internet. She talks about several different systems, her player's antics, and how to stay (somewhat) sane when you're running two games while playing in another, (I DON'T KNOW HOW SHE DOES IT, HONESTLY). If you have a moment, please check it out!








Last update I wanted to share is uh... I caved. I caved and got a Twitter account. Got it while ago actually, only I haven't been updating until recently. I keep my updates set to private, but if you really wanna know how much garlic hummus I'm eating and get spammed every time 4TW Blog updates, you can try adding me: http://twitter.com/Zimtard

...the username 'zimmay' was already taken. u__u;;;
