Now that school's over, I actually had time to scan some stuff. Holy crap, though, scanning things in my big sketchbook is a PAIN. If I don't want it to scan with the picture on the next page visible through the image, I have to scan one single sheet at a time... which means that I have to hold the notebook up and steady through the three million scanning steps my scanner insists on going through. Bah. So, if you see "ghosts" behind the images, it's because I got sick of trying to use my mouse with my right hand while holding the sketchbook steady to the right of the monitor with my other hand.

In chronological order...

A sketch of Zidane I did while in an FFIX craze around early September. Apparently he's flinching, or something?

XD This is

caitirin's made-up senshi character (because if you watch Sailor Moon, you MUST make up your own senshi eventually), Sailor Ganymede. Isn't he cuuuute? The text on the left says "Yamino Kaeru is Sailor Ganymede!" His name means "Frog of Darkness"! *snicker* You also must have ridiculous "something of something" names for your otaku senshi. The text on the right says "In the name of boys who wear skirts, I will punish you!"

This is Koishi, my character from our current L5R game. She's a former member of the Raven Clan, but as they were decimated, she's now ronin (like the rest of the party). She's sort of little and round-faced and a bit clumsy. Also very gullible.

Man, the scan quality differs so much on these O.o I think I was still trying to hold the notebook up on the last one, then gave up on this one. This is Rose, a character from

_melisande_'s RPG. I still am horrible at clothing design, but I like her skirty bit.

Can you tell I've been drawing mostly at Gaming on Fridays? Here's my In Nomine character, Thera, only she's being rather angelic right now. She's a Cherub of Gabriel, which means she gets to smite people who betray those they love. She works as a stenographer at a civil court. The, er, thingy behind her is supposed to be her celestial form, which is sphinxish.

Isolt, who I haven't drawn in about eighteen frillion years, in snow. Kind of not so hot a picture, but I felt like putting it up anyway.

This is Caz (the taller, dark-haired one) and Aranth (the one with the white eyes - he's a seer and is blind), the antagonists from

caitirin's Nano this year. I really love them, and the sketch doesn't do them justice.

Aurea, from my Nano this year. She's fooming or standing in the wind or something, hence the fluttery bangs.

And finally, Theo, the main character from my Nano this year. This is the only of many attempts that actually looked like he's supposed to. The hair, anyway.
