I Wanna Dream

April-May art post. (last post for a while, promise! ;-; I post too much.)

Update 5/22/17: My laptop broke down last Friday, completely I think (had it coming), so I won't be able to be active much or respond to messages or comment often, since I'm stuck using my mom's pc now. ( I dunno, if my brother can't fix it then I may just have to buy a new one or something.) idk i'll update this later I guess, just the point is I won't be very active until this thing works again. it just suddenly froze and then won't turn on anymore at all, so not sure what the deal is. My brother got the hard drive into another computer so I could get all my files and stuff onto a usb before I lose any of it, so that's good. ._. oh well I forgot what I wanted to say

lazy alia

:( sputttyy

i like this more than the one with the background ;-; i kinda like this pose even though i doubt horses can do it naturally haha

It doesn't snow in Okai.

gosh darn, he looks just so good in this mane style i almost want to erase all my work so far with the normal one and draw him in this majestic style instead.

horse-zombie with tumors

first day of April I was sick with fever and muscle cramps and aches and was oh so grumpy, so idk horror and tumors, because of that.

idk man lol

comparison thing :)

i love helmy so much

well i'll be darned.

I found this in my age-old 2015 files that I don't look at anymore. So apparently this is the character I removed from my comic because I had no use for him. His name was Lamm and he was supposed to be an Ashk prince (another of Arawn's half dozen half-siblings) who wanted to become a red guard, but Helm wouldn't let him because he's got royal bloodlines. I like the design, so I may draw him again, but I ain't adding him to the story like my pre-draft suggested haha. Just thought I'd write this, for myself later. Haha and Lenore was supposed to be Arawn's older half-sister? lol naahh. Revising really goes a long way.

Speaking of which I launched the designs on Scratch around late May/ early June 2015, so I've been working on this project almost 2 years now. :') Still proud of it.

                                            Arrow for Glider's birthday last week :)

Nikolas for Spirit's birthday yesterday. I totally failed on this ;-;

hello, handsome :')

dangit man i love this character to pieces.

he makes up for both my favorite characters in my comic. haha if ya know what i mean ;)

my mom said sput's her favorite, it's official.

abomination from hell, by devil

9 year old sahail. he don't look like sahail without the braid though, I forgot to draw it in :/

used a visual ref for this to brush up

i psychopath 

he'd make such a good prince in hair this long, man xD

i'd say it's a bit too long, but still majestic.

also, rain <3

sput and helm 30 sec sketch

this is ugly ugh

yo mr pretty sideburns

side comic, very sketchy. 

godfather helm 

this is canon.

 its genderbend helm. she'd be so darn pretty.

imma whoop you, sahail. 

and so this is how helm knows them kids well, and he don't like sahail that much, because the kid just got on his nerves a lot. 

lenore is uncle's favorite niece yes <3

someday this won't be an ugly wip.

whoops this isn't flipped the right way

red guard messenger mare. comic scrap

well i kinda like her design.

aw arawn :(

no biggie!

lol i sneaked in electricity as a red guard

stoopid electricity.

yo son just try not to give me too much trouble ya hear? im a tired ol guy.

i used a ref for this because i wanted to finish fast but still get a good outcome. cheat.

also, like the ref photo, drew a dished head for once in my life.

its funny i dont remember drawing this

ok, sad arawn.

eh, this didn't make the comic lol

this did. hi sad sput.

quick helm sketches

aw alia :( </3

yo dad

he's kinda a trashhead.

not my chracter

lol pouty len xD

y u hurt him len

i hate background charactersssss

the warrior and the healer

both use light magic, but in different ways

they'd be great friends. planning something for them :)

tried a turnaround wip thing for the amv and idk

i used a ref to help me halfway obviously

 

i messed up on this but oh well

sibs. trying to find better roles for all of them
sahail's still dying though >:( no bypassing that.

epilogue stuff methinks. i had this idea, but i won't spoil it. may make it to the final

lol well ok boys

sketches. also, i may be working on sots pages, just i wont be posting them until i see it going in the right direction ;-;

should be soon, sots'll be back in action! :D

after I'm done with Arawn's story, I'll make a new comic. I dunno if anyone remembers her, but I made up this character a while ago as a "headcanon" like 100 years after Arawn's death, and she can turn void at will (though with limited energy). she works for volke, and his little pirate gang. lol. i think it'd be a good story, but i'm not planning anything for it rn, because i gotta work on sots. :') I love sots. i know, i'm so vain. my life project. the script is coming along quite well, and i tweaked the plot a lot! no major things, just it makes more sense now, and most everything has a purpose, so it may be a bit shorter than the draft (or not tbh lol) I'm SO SO stinkin excited to bring this thing  to life, and i cant wait to show you all! ;-; i just hope it'll turn out how I want it to, with the art and stuff. well, I'm hyped. :')

my favorite chicken, fuzzball, who we've had since november 2011, died yesterday. :( she disappeared and left a lot of feathers. some monster murdered her and took her away. (lol we lost like two other chickens and a big rooster to that thing already, and it's too smart. like, it leaves no tracks. i wanna get it to justice already cause our flock's getting smaller and smaller ;-; poor babies. </3) rip fuzzball. she went through a lot. 6 years is a record for us, cause she's the last of her generation. she outlived her rooster and her daughter. she went through air and 'coon raids, and while all her friends had been killed and taken off by other animals, she held on so far. everyone loved her, she was the queen of the flock and their leader grandma gal. she was still so energetic, even at her age. so cute. i loved her. <3 :') rest in peace fuzzy, you had a good life. now to find a successor. 

 she was a good friend. she helped me build a nest for the other chickens years ago, like I'd put the rags and cozy bedding, and she'd shape it for me so the other chickens'd get eggs in the nest. she liked people and would actually come sit next to you instead of jumping off like the other chickens. she'd let you pet her and pick her up. my brother and i trained her to jump on your arm when you stretched it. we rode on a white horse zahra together once (lol ok ridiculous but it was cute.) i dont want to forget any of that. i know it seems dumb, all for a chicken i mean heck there's billions of chickens, but this one has a special place in my heart. <3 i'll miss her. i love chickens so much. 

ok im so sloppy, im just sad she'd gone, but im also proud of her living so long and being an awesome soulbirdfriend. lol. lovehersomuch.

6/2/17: ok its officially the chicken murder diaries because so far we've lost 6 birds (4 chickens, 2 roosters ;-;) yesterday my brother put down our big ol rooster because something bit into his head, there were puncture wounds in his skull. he was still alive, but his head was HECK blown up and swollen to twice its size and his eyes were swollen and shut too the poor thing. it was creepy. ;-; and a chicken was missing. so whatever's taking them probably bit into the rooster first but the rooster maybe recoiled or jumped away so the whatever it is creature thought that he wasn't worth it and just went for the next chicken instead. ;-; eeeeehh i dunno this is crazy man im getting my head spinning over this thing hah. poor chickens they deserve all the love in the world and all they're gettin is pain and death :( well i mean i know the thing's gotta eat but hey leave my dummies alone you creep. 

ugh.

6/18/17: 8 birds total, chicken carcasses on the roof, still at large

6/20/17: ye i win, finally. sweet justice.

(ok this is the end of this post! I dunno when I'll make the june-july post, probably when I get a new computer because looks like my old one is totally done for. ._. I can't draw too much on my

 mom's computer obviously so it'll be a while before my next post sadly ;-; sighs

yay for the random mini human drawing in the middle of a horse art post xD

welp i had this dumb concept of a pirate captain bargaining with a mermaid and i thought it was cute.

they work together to sink navy ships muahaha.

i dunno if i'll ever expand on this.
