Torn


And this is what happens when I confuse my love of digital painting and comic book illustration haha!

Seriously though, I have been putting aside my love for drawing comics onto the sidelines for the longest time even though one of my main source of income right now is an indie comic book that I'm currently penciling my 3rd issue of. The reason is because I've lost interest in Super Heroes and instead have been caught in the world of Fantasy Art thanks in no small part to reading ImagineFX and playing games every so often. (And thank God my book is medieval and fantasy inspired, so yay!)

However, as I've finally managed to free up some of my time, especially during weekends, I've decided that drawings comics full time is something that I still dream off. Kristel knows how much choosing between digital painting and comic book illustration has been bugging me so I've decided to well, take a stab at both for the mean time and asking God to just point me where I need to go.

This means that even though I've gotten used to painting without a defined lineart I will have to relearn how to do that again. It also means having to watch movies more often and taking the extra time and effort to go through my reading list of comics and burning through all the "Drawing Comics" books that people have given me as gifts but hey, those things are stuff I enjoyed doing and it won't take much for me to enjoy them again.

So here's to my new weekend regimen, to going back to my roots as an illustrator, and to hopefully find why I used to love Super Heroes when I was younger!

Reset!


I found this great inking brush for Photoshop which prompted me to just redo the whole illustration I posted earlier hehe...

Earlier in Church our Pastor shared how to check if the things we are to do are in accordance to God's plans for our life and here's what he said:

1. It should be founded in the Word
2. The thing we are praying for should be soaked in prayer
3. It must be filled by the Holy Spirit

If the decision meets all of these than one should not be worried because God will take care of the rest. I don't know your religious view point and as such you may or may not agree with these but I strongly encourage you to give this a shot. It may take a certain level of open mindedness to take this in, especially if the concept of God is something you haven't entertained but there really is nothing to lose here :)
