Palila

2011-11-22T10:52:00.001-08:00

So I decided to run off with one of these OC concepts.I am very well aware that she doesn't look like a full gargoyle at all, but that is very intentional. In the series, I remember that the London clan look more like mythical (or full) animals and have feathery bird-like wings compared to the Wyvern, Japanese and Guatemalan clan (Zafiro being the exception); so I thought, how about angelic

Garghh

2011-11-21T06:29:00.001-08:00

Still in the mood for gargoyles, I'm afraid. Inspired by Merrypaws' Storm Hawks/Gargoyles crossover. And I even bothered to name them! (L-R: Griff, Raven, Palila, Cardinal)

Steampunk Girls and a Pony

2011-11-19T02:39:00.000-08:00

This is an old sketch actually, and I just remembered to post it up :b I was in the mood for steampunk that week, and I have no idea why I decided to stuff the ladies from Storm Hawks into them. Excuse the pony though.I might just pick one of them and polish it up. We'll see.

A Dragon Named Spike

2011-11-16T11:21:00.000-08:00

...but not from My Little Pony, sorry. And neither is he a dragon - he's a gargoyle. This hatchling is spawned after Merrypaws' artwork, which I had so much fun in taking it out for a ride and fulfilling one of my indulgences.Boy, do I miss watching Gargoyles. That series is responsible for my ultimate interest in cartoon production.

Just some random silly non-official Saladin animated series doodle/fan art. What they are laughing at, I don't really know; Probably a prank they pulled on Duncan (who is either too confused or not amused with the result).Also, this show is recently nominated for an Emmy award (Children and young people category).

I have a little girl; and to keep her occupied, I've been putting on My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. So what first started out as a doodle of an OC pony Lauren Faust-style:(Made with Adobe Illustrator) Ended up becoming this:Mmmmyeah. I need to visit the zoo.

Invader Zim madness

It's no secret that I adore Invader Zim, so here are some mock-comics I made based on some brief ideas: (The idea I had for this one was 6 years later) Blame, Page 1: Blame, Page 2:I'm sad I can't colour as well as most folks. You know who you are. While I was busy indulging my crazy fantasy, I also came up with some A/U OCs to put in that universe:Majara rightfully belongs to my friend,

Nope, he isn't influenced by the new Thundercats TV series. This guy is my husband's original character (way back from 2007; might I add my favourite too out of all his 6). I just thought of giving this fella an updated look. I think I still prefer his first design.

Olumis

2011-07-27T08:27:00.000-07:00

The clouded leopard (neofelis diardii) is the biggest feline predator in Borneo. However, it is nowhere as big as a dog. It is rarely ever seen on the ground as it prefers to stay on trees. Thus, their tail is as long as their body for balance, and their canines are 2 inches long so they can get a good grip on their prey as they drag them up into the trees (considering the size of their skull,

Another version of a young adult female. Their tendrils grow longer as they age, and the hard plates will grow over them too. It takes three years for another plate (on the longest tendril) to appear and push the older one out into place. The crest on their head takes longer. However, the tendrils and plating stop growing altogether once they reach adulthood.Painted in PT Sai, texture is from

Huminodun

2009-05-31T06:52:00.000-07:00

An old sketch from my final year project back in 2005, entitled Huminodun. The story is based on Sabahan folklore (pagan belief, actually); She is the daughter of The Creator (Kinoringan) who sacrificed herself to save humankind from starvation. Her final wish was to have her body parts strewn all across the land, and from it edible plants will grow. From her blood, rise the paddy. Thus is why we
