Senshi Stock

Hark! I hast commeth across something of awesome! ...not sure why I felt the need to express that in pseudo-olde English but anyway--it is called Senshi Stock! This lovely lady and her friends take pictures of themselves in various poses for artists to use as reference photos. The extra awesome part? She has a whole gallery of Sailor Moon and other magical girl poses! I intend to use this resource a lot. As a matter of fact, I already have! Here's a sketch of one of the pictures that was inspired by Senshi Stock:

(ignore the silly outfit. It was late, I don't know what I was thinking)

Then this got me to thinking: what if I took one of these pictures every day and make my own piece from it? And a personal art challenge was born! I will not be starting this until after I am through with school though, of course. Anyway, hope this was helpful!

Love,

Aw, bugger...

Well, dear reader, it turns out that I have missed the kitty girl deadline. Story of my life, I suppose. I'll still finish up the girls I have going and post them within a few days as I rather liked how they turned out. I will also be contemplating a different art challenge I can put on myself over winter break. ...Any ideas?

Love,
Megan

Neko, Neko, Cat!

So my friend Thea (you might know her better as Retrofool) introduced me to this art collaboration: Choose A Cat, Draw A Girl!! Basically, it's a bunch of cute cat-thingies and the artist has invited others to turn them into girls (though, I think I saw some boys in there too hehe) all of which will be put together at the end of two weeks. My character design senses are tingling! Really excited to embark on this project and will be shortly after finishing this post. Hopefully will have some examples up in a few days.

Love 'n Stuff,
Megan
