This is...

...a tiny lemur.

A tiny-tiny lemur.  
So tiny...  
...that I had to put him in a slightly less tiny jar. 
Sadly, the jar got all smeared with glue on the inside and it looks like ass irl. It's okay, though, because the tiny lemur is safe and relatively comfy in it. And, being a failed little experiment, he gets to stay with me :'3

WIP: coloured sketch commission for Cayleth (FA)

The first rough sketch I did:
 I kinda liked it at first but then realized that it's...boring, so I've abandoned it and started working on another one:
Edit (29th November 2011): Progress!

WIP: Condor Shaman and his daughter (sketches)

I've been working on my part of an art trade with Gloomy Underwoods (GloomyUnderwoods.deviantart.com), and I've learned that Andean Condors are...amazing creatures, yes, but also really difficult to draw. It took me forever to get their head to look semi-alright.

This is the first draft which had to be scrapped: 
And the second sketch:
I like this one better, because I intend to ink it with microns: bigger characters will allow me to play with crosshatch a bit hee. And yeah, my camera doesn't handle sketches very well: I'm putting those up just to show Gloomy some progress. I will find means to scan the finished product properly.

Edit:
A bonus of sorts: some sketches I did from memory during classes before I sketched the picture for Gloomy.

WIP: Chiliza's autumn stroll

Modern attire, unlikely surroundings. How odd. 
Felt like painting a tacky pastel gradient in that first one huh. Changed my mind, though: there will be plenty of time for tacky gradient skies later on, yes. 
Man, I love drawing trees. It's so relaxing:
To be finished one day.

WIP: Doctor Whooves custom blindbag poni

One fine day I've decided to try my hand at pony-customizing. I've slaughtered my blindbag Twilight's mane with an exacto knife...and left the poor girl like that for two months, because I've got distracted by other things derp. 
My original plan was to try and make a Griffith poni out of her, but then I've changed my mind and settled for something easier (it is my first time, after all). My bff, Kinya, got me into Doctror Who quite recently, so my next choice was painfully obvious:  
I tried to make him look as similiar to that one background pony character (nicknamed Doctor Whooves by the fans of the show) as possible. While I was somewhat pleased with how his mane and tail turned out, some of the "spikes" got damaged during boiling. Boo! Oh well, shit happens and I was expecting everything to fall apart anyway, so I've decided to carry on with painting him:
This is the result for now. His mane and tail need at least 4 more coats of paint, the eyes need some tweaking (they have two different shapes currently) and the cutiemark is missing, obviously. I need to put this little project on hold, though: I have other things that I want to finish more than this, plus...I've ran out of acrylic paint anyway trololo. 
It's been tons of fun so far, and I think that I will try to make a Godhand Griffith pony out of my RD blindbag, after all. The paint job on her is atrocious anyway, so nothing of value will be lost.

school doodles: Rainbow Dash and Firefly

Doodled on two separate sheets of my cultural discourse notebook, photographed, then lazily coloured in oC just now because my MA thesis is being a bitch and refuses to write itself.
