And... back in a bloody drought again.
Might be the heat. It's hard to just sit down and draw and pushing a pencil across a page feels like rolling a boulder up a hill.

Being very productive at the moment... hopefully it keeps up.ย
Also, I REALLY need to get more art supplies...

After drawing one character from my flatmate's new D&D group back in April, I've finally managed to do the REST of the party... and hopefully, it'll inspire me to do some more!

Had a bit of a rush of activity over the last few days, which is nice.ย
Hopefully, I'll be able to ride this wave for awhile!

I didn't realize I hadn't! Please excuse me getting here so late!

In fairness, I don't publicise my dA page as much as I probably should. But the reason for that is because I have a lot of pre-transition art there and I have ambivalent feelings about that.ย

It's also the reason my name on here is EonSquirrel and not BethanyGRT or DeltaStarfire. I mean to change that, but it means temporarily subscribing.ย

Some of my more recent pictures - Six-Shooter, Fantastic Elastic and Echidna, among others - are reminding me that the more I draw the happier I am with the outcome, and the more pleased I am with the final product.
The challenge then is in continuing to draw and not falling back into bad habits.

Finishing a new drawing yesterday, confirmed for me that my increasing anxiety levels are the cause of why I don't draw more often.
The whole time I was drawing, my brain was going, "It looks so good. You should stop before you ruin it." Every line on the page was met with the thought, "There. That's fucked it."
Each time I'd get something - a hand, an arm, a collar, a belt - onto the page, I'd have to push past that voice saying, "That looks great. You should stop here before you screw the whole thing up."
Which is annoying.

Stumbled over some of your character art while randomly browsing! Awesome heroes!

Ah hey there, glad to see you active again!
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
ack.. this is killing me. so many more to upload...
...I'll do it tomorrow.

Uploading a bunch of OOOOLD arse stuff. Some of this is pretty dodgy, but I lost a whole mess of older drawings several years ago, and even if the execution is pretty off, the ideas still have potential...ย

No worries! Love your clean-art line style and wonderful, iconic characters!
I've been watching DBed for awhile, and loved his take on your character, The Fighting Canuck so, well, you have him partially to blame.

That's the great thing about this community, always find something new here.

Aha! I have found you in an internet place! (Since you probably have no idea who I am instantaneously, I will tell you I drew you a munki with komix today.)
See ya next week probably!

And the weather's gone kinda nice. Oddly enough, I'm grinding out new pixs like nobody's business!
Blimey!

Blimey. And now, just as I'm entering a new drawing jag, the bloody heat is so oppressive and so inescapable that I can't face doing anything more than huddling in front of a fan.
Gr.

Very glad to be drawing again.
Hopefully, this damn oppressive heat will let up so I can get back to it.

You've got some great new pieces coming through Mr Munkey! Nice to see the ol' pen getting a workout.

More pictures coming soon, o long suffering watchers.

If anyone's still watching me despite my pig-awful lack of updates, I'd recommend checking out the work of my pal, Bret on DA.
His account is 'howyadoin-graphics'.

There you go. A robot illustration I did for some friends of mine to use on a nightclub flyer.

I did get paid for this one, so please don't use this one without permission.

I've got a handful of new pieces ready to go, but it was done for people, so I'm'a gonna get their okay before I put it up.

One of the best things about colouring in with photoshop when you don't know how to use photoshop and it's just trial and error is when you stumble across an awesome technique purely by accident which changes the way you draw.
One of the worst things is looking at all of your old artwork and thinking, "Boy, wouldn't that new technique look good on that picture?"

Hey Bud. Dan here.
Just tried colouring some of your work.. let me know what ya think.
