Kittyspam and drawings

Got a new toy - a puffball on a spring.


And achieved a Sanzo glare. XD




She really prefers to lay on her side and play with it that way, being a LAZY-ASS KITTY, but she occasionally plays with it in an upright position:




After exerting herself for approximately two and a half minutes, she now takes a well-earned snooze to recover.




I finally got off my ass and started soemthing I'd been wanting to do - go through a magazine (last month's Vanity Fair for those keeping score) and draw all the hands. Well, I'm not drawing all the hands, but the three hours total of drawing (would be more except I watch TV while doing it and keep getting distracted by the Mythbusters and whoever else is on) have produced the proof that yes, as long as I'm looking at soemthing else and they're not attached to anything, I can usually draw hands.

The problem comes, of course, when I'm trying to figure out how they should go *and* have them the right size and shape for whoever they're supposed to be attached to.

Oh yeah. I'm a messy sketcher, and discovering that I could draw, scan it and reprint in blue, the refine on that, and do it all over again until the final drawing was done was amazing.

And now that I've done a ton of roughs and sketching on the computer itself - much less of a hassle than even scanning in. XD I think I may end up doing most of my sketching on the computer, even for the pencil pieces - I can print them out, then use the lightbox to transfer the lines of the sketch to the good paper, then shade from there.
