Devil's Trumpet Mock Cover

"Our dreams gave way to prophecy."
As the title states, this is a mock cover for my current story, but I liked it enough that I wanted to share it outside my facebook profile. 

I tried to keep the entire thing simple, without adding too much detail to anything. It was a struggle to some degree, finding something that I felt was done but didn't appear incomplete. I'm happy with it.

Face Variety Practice with Devil's Trumpet Characters


Top Row (Left to Right): Macy Braddock, Circi Taurean, Pyera Vandiver
Bottom Row (Left to Right): Lilac Dexter, Luc Walcott, Cleon Lamalcom
Top Row (Left to Right): Tesher, Nico Nevarro, Valberg Marshall
Bottom Row (Left to Right): Nomono Nirvahna, Lily Dexster, Francis Church

I haven't posted for a while...


BUT AT LEAST I'VE BEEN MORE ACTIVE THAN I HAVE WITH DEVIANT ART. 

Okay, so, I lost access to my original account because LIKE AN IDIOT, I changed the password, then forgot the password, then tried and tried and gave up before giving up. Eventually I created a new account, but I missed my previous one. SO TODAY, 

TODAY, MY FRIENDS, 

I FINALLY FIGURED OUT MY PASSWORD.

I've been given access again, and I have well over 2000 notifications. XD

Kill me.

Moving on, I have some art I've been working on, and I'm going to post them now that I'm graduated and majorly less busy than I was before. 

Also, I've put my writing project, DAYDREAMER, on hiatus, if any of you are curious. It's been about seven years in the making, but I've moved onto something I feel has more potential as well as a better chance of getting published. That's not to say that DAYDREAMER won't. I've  become more knowledgeable about what publishers are looking for from new authors and DAYDREAMER is a tall order.

Not only that, but quite honestly I've become burnt out on the story and it's characters. I've been working on the rewrite of DAYDREAMER since Freshman year, and I'm a high school graduate now. I feel that I require a break, and during this time I can dedicate myself to other stories that have been waiting to be explored. 

I'm glad to be back, and I can't wait to post more over the course of the summer. c:

Fire Dancer


HEY!

It's me! Michy! I know, it's been a while. You might be wondering why, and well to be perfectly honest I've been so focused on graduation that I basically just gave up art for like...I don't know, a month or two? The last drawing I posted was LITERALLY the only thing I've drawn before this.

Okay, that's an exaggeration, but it's the only thing I actually finished. I drew one or two things other than that drawing, but beyond that it's been a pretty uneventful time for my art.

That being said, with my graduation ceremony this coming Saturday, you could say that 'll have much more time to work on everything and anything art. c: Work doesn't have homework, so that's not going to take away from my time tooooo much.

Have this though.

I started this....Sunday. Yeah, Sunday. 

This is the main character of my book, DAYDREAMER, and she's afraid of fire but is also quite fiery herself. I really enjoy oxymorons, if that wasn't obvious.

I have been working on this so diligently the past few days, and I'm so proud of the final product. 

I've been thinking though; I want to start putting more posts up on here, so I'm wondering what migt be popular. I know probably no one will comment, but hey it's worth a short. What are some of the things you guys might like to see? I have to get one art trade out of the way, but maybe I might start taking requests. Also, after this Saturday I'm officially reactivating my Instagram account, because I no longer need to focus on school. c:

School Assignment: Lift


This is the final piece in my concentration; it's meant to symbolize personal liberation. 

I'm a little tired at the moment, with two tests waiting for me at school today, but once I've gotten more sleep and find the time to sit down in the midst of so much homework I'll return to better explain.

Devil's Trumpet

I'm upset but this is finished.


WIP: Devil's Trumpet


This is the protagonist for one of my stories. I'm not sure if I've ever spoke of it before, but it's called Devil's Trumpet. Chances are if I have brought it up in a blog post before, I called it Premonition. It's since been renamed so, yeah. 

This is some fake as hell promotional art for said story, showcasing Marceline "Macy" Braddock, and her pretty kick ass tattoos.

Lately, I've been in this funk where I have no desire to draw whatsoever, so it's been a struggle to fall in love with anything long enough to actually complete it. That being said, I'm enjoying this so hopefully I can keep this up.

How Long Until Demons Die?


Hey! Long time no see! I know I haven't been posting very often, and that certainly doesn't bode well for those (no matter how few) check in every so often to visit my blog. I believe that Blogger might be glitching somehow, because whenever I create a new post it has this washed out haze over the rest of the sight. It's notably disconcerting.

Nonetheless, those of you who are curious as to where I've been the answer is simple; school (like always), work (like always), and surprisingly Ohio! I visited my bestfriend of three years this last week and on my way home I ended up stranded in Denver! 

It was horrible! :D

That being said, I've returned and with new art! I'm going to download some of the things I drew while I was away *and trapped in a frighteningly large, unfamiliar city.* This piece, however, is one I finished just last night. I intended it to be a side project for myself, but due to time constraints I ultimately decided to add it to my concentration. Sure, the meaning behind it is bullshit, but it works.

To elaborate, in regard to my concentration this is supposed to represent the prison of our flaws, otherwise known as "demons." I tried to demonstrate this by having the woman toughing her reflection to symboize an inescapable contact and intimacy between herself and her faults all the while portraying both a sense of dismay and horror. 

In reality, I drew this because in one of the roleplays I participate in with my bestfriend our characters are going through some shit and I like to draw moody crap. 

Whoop!!~

Edit; Ayyyyyy! Check out this Gif~

School Assignment: 3 Fates/Thread

Nel, Parker, and Kaya

This wasn't originally supposed to be a school assignment but the due date snug up on me and now it's been re purposed so that I don't fail my art class.

WIP: 3 Fates

Nel, Parker, and Kaya
(Nel and Parker belong to my best friend, Kaya belongs to me)
So, recently, in one of the roleplays my best friend and I are writing, three characters died, and are going through several tortures and trials in an effort to reclaim their lives. I, for whatever reason, developed an image of them in my head, that involved them walking as the three fates (Moirai, or whatever, you know, the Greek Version). Nel is meant to be Clotho, Parker is meant to be Lachesis, and Kaya is Atropos. 

It's clearly not done, but so far I'm very happy with how it's going. I almost forgot Kaya's tattoo then added it about half way through my session tonight.
