Lef gef if on

I have no idea how this will pan out but since I draw and go online pretty much every day it shouldn't be too much of a stretch really.

Worry not, boobs there will be. Plenty if I know myself right.

Igo: COOL! I had completely forgotten about that ... can't remember if I sent you my new address so I'll send you it again.

First doodle for february, don't think they're gonna be very elaborate, at least not this week 'cause I've got end of term assessments coming up. :neutral:

Salad Boy and Weirdly Proportioned Girl.

It's always great to see you rocking your pencils + colour style!

Kegg · **Posted:** Wed Feb 01, 2012 1:59 pm

Salad boy is awesome

Mara · **Posted:** Thu Feb 02, 2012 10:28 am

thanks guys! really pressed for time today so only the quickest of doodles ... woop.

iza · **Posted:** Thu Feb 02, 2012 12:02 pm

Your sketches have a super playful sense to the overall shapes and feel! Great work!

Mara · **Posted:** Fri Feb 03, 2012 2:12 pm

thank you iza, appreciate it. :)

another quickie doodle, I feel like the quality is quickly deteriorating here haha but uhm assessments are done and I've found a new place to live so maybe I'll have a few worries less for the following weeks, hurray.

edit: forgot to post the image didn't I ...

Igo · **Posted:** Fri Feb 03, 2012 8:31 pm

That is, disturbing...

Mara · **Posted:** Sat Feb 04, 2012 6:47 am

oh I forgot to mention, that was drawn from a little piece of conversation I caught in a thread here ... :winkbf:

Mara · **Posted:** Sat Feb 04, 2012 4:32 pm

eep. trying to do something landscape-y. gonna go hide in a corner and weep now, thanks.

badWulf · **Posted:** Sat Feb 04, 2012 4:36 pm

Salad kid is cuuuuuuuuuute! With all those U's

I like how you draw your characters. Specially how minimal it all looks. <3

Flip · **Posted:** Sun Feb 05, 2012 3:52 pm

Hahahaha the landscape! LOVE

Mara · **Posted:** Sun Feb 05, 2012 4:14 pm

thanks badwulf and flip! I guess I have a thing for triangles and pyramids.

I feel this is totally inappropriate of me: But I love how you draw boobs. <3

roborobot · **Posted:** Sun Feb 05, 2012 4:45 pm

Yep, love the minimal reproach. Keep the work flowing!!!

Gunstar · **Posted:** Sun Feb 05, 2012 9:11 pm

Great works. Really dig Salad Boy and Weirdly Proportioned Girl.

Mara · **Posted:** Mon Feb 06, 2012 10:30 am

thanks peeps! and haha boob comments are completely appropriate ... I handed in all my sketchbooks on friday for my end of term assessment, it went something like this:

tutor1: So Disa, we've had a look at your sketchbooks. They're, uh ... rather saucy.
me: *embarrassedface*
tutor1: But, in a good way.
me: *hides behind hands*
tutor2: *flips through pages and giggles*

it's just the way it that it is. so feel free to giggle. or enjoy the boobery.

slightly bigger batch today, had a good run just after midnight, thinking I had to present something at school today but turned out I didn't - oh wellz still got some sketches outta me.

I was filling in the empty space left in the beginning of my sketchbook, and thought I'd draw the same characters and see if my style has changed since starting at uni ... looks like it has a bit. so the ones marked A are from this summer, the ones marked B are from today.

ALSO ANNOUNCEMENT (you heard it here first): I've been working on a side story for Spera (http://spera-comic.com/) called Sun Dog, written by Bobby Myers and Josh Tierney. It was an awesome experience, and is my first finished comic! It's five pages long and took me absolute ages to finish but it was well worth it and I'm very happy with the outcome so go read it HERE: http://spera-comic.com/onlinecomics/sun_dog01.html

Here is a sample page:

And if you're not familiar with Spera you should definitely check it out, it's a great fantasy story and has got some super talented artists working on it!

Oooohh, the girl on the dino back is such a cool image, love the angle and those shadows really help make it look even more 3D. mmmm, good ^^

Awesome thread, Mara! I REALLY like salad boy!! Such a cool-looking character! But I'm a loopy vegan so I could be biased... lol Oh and I think suicidal girl should have cake first. Keep it coming! =]

Ken · **Posted:** Mon Feb 06, 2012 11:41 pm

These pics have all got such a wicked dark streak of humour running through them. Lovely work.

Greg · **Posted:** Tue Feb 07, 2012 12:45 am

That comic page is great!

Mara · **Posted:** Tue Feb 07, 2012 3:10 pm

red monkey: thank you! I am feeling maybe more girls on dinos, at some point.
barlee: glad you like it! I agree that she should have cake first, even impending suicide is not a good reason not to. being a vegan is cool, I can barely muster part-vegeterian myself!
ken: that is always a good sign, cheers!
greg: thank yooooo ~~ comicking is harder work than I imaged.

more doodlery, sort of a character sheet for someone I may or may not call Geraldine and who may or may not be part of a project that barely exists yet ... exciting tiems.

also boobs because I said I would.

Sketch · **Posted:** Tue Feb 07, 2012 4:34 pm

I remember you from other places, Gingerbox I think.
Love your stuff! I imagine it would be awesome to see your whole sketchbook in real life.

Gideon · **Posted:** Tue Feb 07, 2012 7:54 pm

I've been a huge fan of your pencil work for a bit now, and you're not disappointing. (: I'm really looking forward to the rest of this month.

wisp · **Posted:** Wed Feb 08, 2012 4:57 pm

Your style is brilliant! I'm liking them all

TakunisDope · **Posted:** Wed Feb 08, 2012 5:20 pm

I love your style man. Its too cool for words.

Mara · **Posted:** Wed Feb 08, 2012 6:37 pm

sketh: quite right, I'm on gingerbox too! haha I think you'd be disappointed by my actual sketchbook, most of the half decent stuff goes on the internet anyway. :winkbf:

gideon: thanks, hope not to disappoint then. :)
wisp: cheers!
takunisdope: :coolbf:

went to a museum full of skeletons and taxidermy stuff so that's today's drawings ...

Kyendo · **Posted:** Wed Feb 08, 2012 6:57 pm

I didn't know you were doing this! Yessssdhksj this is the best event ever. I don't think I ever told you how much I love your character and pencil strokes. I love them.

That "stop staring at my face" girl reminds me of Rihanna both in looks and spirit. Coincidence?
