Stabby Goodness
A sketch of my gnome rogue. Trying to do a nice, semi-dynamic body composition. Probably another sketch that will look fantastic in colour.

Daily Artwork
So here's a preview of what I've been working on for Neil's birthday. I took a sketch like this:
and toiled away on vector art in Illustrator for a week or so until it now looks like this:
That's an almost-fully-rendered set of Felheart there, being modelled by Neil's tiny warlock. My only qualm is that I used a wall from the inn in Tanaris for reference, and even with colour adjustment it doesn't provide quite enough contrast with the Felheart armour to really pop. I should have used one of the night elf inns. I may have to remedy that this weekend.
In any case, I used our photo printer to put the image onto a 5.5" x 8.5" card, and I also made a sig he can use on the guild forums and will probably make a wallpaper version too. I'd also like to submit it to the Blizzard fanart repository, but I'll ask Neil first, since it's half-his.
Phew. Now I'm working on colouring a dumb little comic from my sketchbook, starring my small night elf army:
In case it's hard to read, that's my Level 12 Druid going on about his "epic staff". I'm sure it's been done before. I'm just experimenting with a more stylized drawing style.

Keepin' it Original
Ladies and gentlemen, the first gangsta gnome:
A little rounder and cuter than the Gimp version.

No Place Like Gnome
It's my early lab day and I am SO SLEEPY. I just want to die. From lack of sleep.
I'm experimenting with Gimp today, because I have a need to draw a gangsta lawn gnome using vector graphics. It's taking me a long time because I am getting sleepier and sleepier, but it's turning out better than I'd hoped, given that I don't normally use Gimp or the work mouse for drawing.
I also found this great lawn gnome wallpaper here. It's been making me think. About lawn gnomes. Except I am so tired that they are starting to look at me funny.
Finished up the gangsta gnome.
I'll have to scan the one from my sketchbook. Neil thinks the non-digital gnome is better. Still, not bad for my first go at Gimp vector graphics.
