For the last two nights I've been devoting about 2-3 hours of free time to doing B4 sized comic pages of a scene I've been mapping out in my head of my Scion:Hero character being chased by a monster. I finished page 2 tonight and I plan to make it about 5 pages. It should result with her and Saturday meeting for the first time. It's just something I really wanted to do and it feels great doing it. Here's a few photos since my scanner is too small for it.

Artist Trading Cards
Hey everyone!
It's been a while since my last post here but between DA, FA, facebook, OMN LJ, and my VCU blog (which is also a summer blog now) I have a lot places to post art ^^;
Today I want to talk about Artist Trading Cards, or ATCs for short. It's this cool thing where you and someone else draw on a small card made of any paper you like and you trade them. It's a great way to have a piece of art from another artist without having to draw a huge picture. And it's so verstile, you can use collage, paint, markers, ink, have movable parts, cover it in resin, anything you want! Recently my good friend LostReach had an ATC trade set up that I participated in.
Today I received my half of the trade
Spork-Bunny ATC by *LostReach on deviantART
She drew my Scion:Hero character Ramla, and I LOVE IT!
My half of the trade was her steampunk villain 'Lady Chimera'

I've also been invited to participate in an ATC comunity on DA called ATC Fanatics I've got a few cards faved on their page and from there people can see what they like and talk to the artist who did them about trading that card. It's a great idea and I'm working hard on new cards. I've also got an OMN comic page to do today since I finished my paper early but I plan on finishing the Finley Manor crew photo portraits up and taking cool photos with them.
I'm off for now! I'll be back later with some arts C:
