Well I don't think I'll be writing here anymore, but I missed you guys. So I'm back for a hopefully long visit, at least to hang out a bit.
Since I've been on Althanas for a few years now, it seems to have become a tradition for me to show you all how I'm improved art-wise over my frequent, months-long bouts of inactivity.
Also, I had a thought - since I'm not posting but I'm taking up enough space in this thread for it to be criminal, I'd like to offer drawing/coloring requests to you guys. I need to get better at drawing fast, since I'm putting together my animation/character concept portfolio and resume.
SO. I'll take a few requests if anyone happens to be interested - I'll start off with four spots, I guess. Just simple stuff - sketches with flat colors (no shading/lighting). And I promise it won't take me forever this time. If it does, you are hereby granted permission to curse gratuitously at me.
Here's some examples of what I've done recently (hah I feel like some of these look the same....oh well):
I have a 5+ year-long book I've been working on, and in the last couple of those years, I revamped everything: plot, designs, the whole shebang. These are some beginning character concepts (my old Althy character Hana is at the end, looking considerably less modest than she should):

I'm also planning on launching my own webcomic, Dualite, this upcoming summer. I've had to do extensive research on this goddamn thing but it's worth it, I think. It's a retelling of Beauty and the Beast, set in early twentieth-century America. More character concepts:

I'm currently in a script-form RP with the two old friends I'm always writing new stories with....this one is Victorian-inspired, and I made a couple story-quote-themed faux-posters for all four main characters. I love these guys.
These two are Noah and Gwen:

Aaaaand these two are McKinley and Emery:

....I wonder if anyone can guess which of those four I write.
Anyway!
Request away - I'm just gonna take four right now to see if I can do it quick over the weekend.
It feels good to be back (or whatever weird state of 'back' I am in, not posting ICly)!
