Hello all, I'm back~
One day I will look back to this and cringe at the perspective.
I have to say I love drawing Smiley. He's a shy boy so it's difficult for him to come up to people.

I'm really curious about these two now. I like Smiley, But I wonder what's behind the mask too. I also wasn't aware that Solemn had a mask on either.

"...help her with the heads." That is said so casually, it's bizarre and funny in a the most macabre sense!

I like how he's bowing, so cute! And that perspective is really well done!

I guess her mask is obscured by her hair. lol well, Dr Mango is pretty nonchalant, so he's kind of casual in this kind of stuff. XD
Smiley's a pretty good boy, he has good etiquette since Dr Mango always make sure he's a gentleman. Dr. Mango's pretty much Smiley's mentor or something like that.

That's good to know. In this bizarre world of strange head gatherings, it's good to know some things remain constant;like manners.

I like this Smiley character as well. The last panel reminds me of two dolls about to dance. Like those mechanical ones, you know?

I really can't wait for the next page!

hjsdfkjsd That perspective killed me a hundred times over. Well, it's cool how you pointed out about the mechanical doll, cos it reminds me of the music box with the dolls dancing on it.

Haha, it's a secret why he uses a mask. But it'll be explained later. ;D
Eh, what's wrong with Smiley's smile? Not sure what you mean since his face can't be seen. XD

Gadriann In reply to ChocoBunny0 [2011-11-11 05:02:03 +0000 UTC]

Lol nope. Dr mango is the guy with the smiling scars on his face. Smiley is the boy who bowed to the girl.XD

Dat panneling skill o__O I wish I could come up with something this dope, I've been spending the past few weeks trying to draw at least one chapter, only scraps and lame sketches came out. How long does it take you to finish up one page?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Gadriann In reply to LilyScribbles [2011-11-09 11:12:06 +0000 UTC]

On a productive day, three pages in two days, because I usually draw pages in a batch. The sketch part takes me the longest time, like this page it took me around 3 hours just to sketch. The inking, one page takes about 1 hour and editing takes about 1+ hour.
Hm, maybe you should imagine out the story in your head first before you draw? And when what you draw doesn't come out exactly as you imagined, don't worry, just go ahead with it, there's a reason why your hands might want to draw it like that. That happened to me sometimes when I draw Black Sheep. I hated it at first but after going with instinct, I kind of like how it looks in the end.

When I came up with the plot and characters and everything, I first wrote a rough first draft of a novella, so I'd have it all clearer and now I realized I can't put in comic strip form everything I've written. adapting it and still drawing it right comes the hardest. And proportions, dammit. Six years of art classes and I still draw huge heads. But I love your style because it's a bit messier and it has those flowing lines, the mangas I've read are too...idk, clean, with those hyperthin, sharp lines.

Gadriann In reply to LilyScribbles [2011-11-11 03:25:21 +0000 UTC]

It's pretty common not to be able to draw what comes to your head, so don't feel so frustrated about it. One thing about studying anatomy is to go see real life people and things and take notes of your surroundings. Like when they bend, the skin move this way, when angry, wrinkles come up and stuff like that. That's how I try to learn drawing though but it's still kinda difficult. I still draw huge heads sometimes. XD
My line's messy cos I only use ballpoint pen and lacking time. I wish I could draw thin outlines though, it looks pretty neat, but I don't have the patience. X.x

*hopes your awesome perspective skills will one day rub off to me* haha.
Does he wear a mask because he's so shy?

I do wonder why Mango needs heads...>.>

*playing sims help for perspective reference, for serious*
Well, I guess... but both Solemn and Smiley wear masks so I don't think he wears mask to cover his shyness. XD

Hmmm your answer will be answered on the next page. XD
By the way how are youuu? Haven't chatted with you in a long time. ;w;

MightyMelleR In reply to Gadriann [2011-11-09 10:33:23 +0000 UTC]

haha. OMG, I didn't even realize Solemn wore a mask. Wow I feel dumb~

I'm doing well, thank you! So relieved the wedding is over. I'm finally getting back on track with things. Practicing a lot :3 and taking the NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) challenge of writing 50,000 words of a new novel in a 30 day span. So I've been writing. A. Lot.

What about youuuuu??? I hope you're well!!! I flail every time I see work on tumblr by you!

LOL Well I guess it's not that obvious. XD
Oh that's awesome! Cos when I logged into FB you seemed down. >.< But if you're good now, it's good for me too! ^^
Whoa, that's a big challenge there. So what are you writing about? If you wanna keep it a secret I'll understand, hehe ;D

Ah well, I'm relaxing, kinda. Though I've been restless a lot cos I'm nervous about my exam results. But ah well drawing help me forget I guess. asjdlkasd that reminds me, I haven't finished the drawing that I kept spamming on Tumblr.
