The Clockwork Mansion

AFTER 4 YEARS OF HIBERNATION, I AWAKE TO DESTROY THE WORLD.

So yeah I kind of disappeared from the forum for a variety of reasons (medication problems, school problems, ex-boyfriend problems, anxiety problems, misdiagnosis problems) but I'm back with a brand new art thread and a relatively frequent output of artwork. :] This is the index post, I'll probably come back to decorate this nice and pretty. My old art thread can be found here (http://clockworkmansion.com/forum/index.php/topic,2022.0.html).


Redoing this project because I'm a crazy perfectionist, although I'll do this at my own leisure. I might even do this with a different character, I'm not completely sure yet.

A chronological compilation of all the art I post in this thread.

November 2011

• Badges galore and a few miscellaneous sketches (http://clockworkmansion.com/forum/index.php/topic,8652.msg357259.html#msg357259)
• A badge for Basilisk (http://clockworkmansion.com/forum/index.php/topic,8652.msg357353.html#msg357353)

December 2011

• Keaton is good at solving her problems like an adult (http://clockworkmansion.com/forum/index.php/topic,8652.msg358072.html#msg358072)
• Using shameless Pokemon fanart for an experiment in pastels/complementing colors (http://clockworkmansion.com/forum/index.php/topic,8652.msg358178.html#msg358178)

February 2013

• Charcoal life drawings of some pets (http://clockworkmansion.com/forum/index.php/topic,8652.msg369646.html#msg369646)

And here are all the badges I did for Anthrocon this year! I'm listing them in the order I finished them.

• Vexingly Yours's badge (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5907168)
• My badge (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5925888)
• EenyuWolf's badge (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5950914)
• Bradypodidae's badge (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6169681)
• DrilleCat's badge (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6258290)
• Cogidubnus's badge (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6387343)
• Kimmy's badge (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6258290)
• LunaCatta's badge (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6813914)

Only the first three of them were finished before Anthrocon. All the badges after that were commissions taken on after AC was over. Cog's was completed for his birthday, and showcased a new coloring experiment I was attempting that I later tried on Kimmy's badge. LunaCatta's badge was inked with my tablet, not with the pen tool, to give it a more organic look, but I still need to shoot for trying better line variation.

Other than the badges, I have a few other random sketches that were done before Anthrocon.
Such as this ear I did for art class (http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o15/Keaton_Mask/My%20Artwork/scan0004-1.jpg), and this eye (http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o15/Keaton_Mask/My%20Artwork/Eye.png). And this sketch of Lisky's head! (http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o15/Keaton_Mask/My%20Artwork/scan0002.jpg) And this drawing of a Joltik ferociously hugging its trainer's skull (http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o15/Keaton_Mask/My%20Artwork/scan0008.jpg) (which definitely needs polishing and moving around, although I'm very happy with the proportions of the face). I'll definitely have more to show, I just wanted to bang out this post before people started crowding my thread immediately after I finished the index post. Haha! Suckers!

What's the rough turnaround on these things?  And what's the significance of the bold entries in the 100 Themes list?

The bold entries were UBBC coding gone extremely wrong :c

And by turnaround, what do you mean?

How long, start to finish, are commissions expected to take?

That depends on the coloring style. I had hammered out the Anthrocon badges in about 9 days - I think the Sunblink one took 2 days because I was literally sitting at the computer all day, the other badges took a little bit longer for various reasons. From now on I'm going to abide by some kind of deadline I set for myself. Cel-shaded badges like Eenyu's, DrilleCat's, and LunaCatta's take a lot less time to finish.

The average badge takes 4 days thereabouts. Kimmy's took a lot longer because so much detaaaail and I had to be in New York to drop off my sister.

The badges are gorgeous, especially love for Cogidubnus' one- the choice of background is spot on :mowmeep

I was sure I had a commission in mind, but I really can't think what it was...

If you remember, let me know~ :] I still gotta finish that panel for you though.

Thanks dude! :D I appreciate it.

Arts you say?  Suppose that I ask for something exceptionally odd.  Such as, say, a picture of a certain fox sporting a machine gun riding on the back of a cybernetic wolf the size of a military hummer.  Do you do the odd and bizarre?

Well, I'm not at all used to drawing machines and artillery, but I'd be willing to give it a try!

I'm being purely silly here.  Except for the part of sending money your way for art.  PM me with details and such.

Sent a PM your way, brah. :]

/insert bad joke about Lisky's promiscuity here

I had to fight really really hard to keep myself from drawing, like, a condom between his teeth and as it turns out, Lisky wants me to do that anyway, so. I'll make that an alternate version. :B

I'm really proud of this one! :] I'm getting the hang of tablet inking, it's a lot less time-consuming than using the vector pen, even if I have to go back to fix my wobbly lines. EVENTUALLY I WILL BE A MASTER.

Up next are some commissions that Tape bought from me. Hopefully I'll get them done really quickly. Art trades will be handled once all the commissions are off the table.

Great Work, Sun-B. I love how you did the body- he looks like he is going to burst with pride, maybe a fetched stick between his teeth will be more appropriate  :mowhappy

Indeed Miss Sunblink good stuff :3

hey now... >| I might be tamed eventually! EVENTUALLY! :V

It's delightful! Love it to pieces! Thanks you oh so much Keatsy! :3

Personally, I think Tapewolf's commentary'd conversation is hugely apt. ;-]

After the sheer amount of effort that went into this picture, my hands have fallen off. My hands are gone. Gone.

Anyway this is the first of three commissions I owe. :D I'll take a short break to draw something kind of Christmas-y then get to work on the next one.

Keaton, my precious, precious Suebaby. I missed you. I missed you as much as Cass will miss all her teeth.

But Keaton won't miss.... ;>.>

Particularly not with a grip like that.

I did like the wing gripping Cass' hair. That was a nice touch.

And yes, looking like that, Keaton is all threat. Even more danger than exudes from Mao when he's pissed... ;-]

I completely forgot to upload this! Gasp! Just for clarification, the little thing clinging onto the back of that lady's head is a Joltik, a Pokemon. ONLY MADE BIGGER.

It didn't quite turn out the way I wanted it to and I had to adjust the colors to bring out the pastels (because it looked much brighter/pleasing on my PC and after I transferred it, the colors seemed muddier), but I'm still very happy with this.

Bonus version: Playing around with Hue/Saturation had some interesting results. (http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o15/Keaton_Mask/My%20Artwork/d87dbc18.jpg) The lines are still artifacted as fuck, though.
Bonus version 2: Un-pastelish version (http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o15/Keaton_Mask/My%20Artwork/19e768fa.jpg)

I can't decide if that is adorable or creepy  :erk colors are warm, I don't know if that was the effect you were aiming for, but it's pleasing to the eye.

okay so for about two years I forgot this topic existed because I entered a weird art slump and preferred keeping my FurAffinity updated as opposed to this topic, so technically I haven't been dead for all this time. HOWEVER, I'm now taking semi-regular figure drawing classes and it's increased my work output, so I decided to revive this topic with a few charcoal drawings I did as an experiment. All of these are of my pets! From now on, if I don't slack off, I'll use this place to host drawings that I normally wouldn't upload to FurAffinity. I'm sitting on a couple of sketches that I'll upload later, once I've made them presentable.

My new years resolution was to do more artwork, and you all should know I TAKE MY NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS VERY SERIOUSLY. It's like a pinkie pie promise to the universe.

Constructive criticism is always appreciated~

btw, Sammy is a cockatiel and Snickers is a dachshund.

Your art just keeps getting more and more awesome. Keep it up and well done!

Charcoal is new! Great work on Sammy, it's so life-like! Snickers is great as well, but kind of lacks detail- stands a lot more cartooney than the parrot. Still, amazing job on these   :mowhappy
