[Art] Zina Draws Stuff-Finally colored things, oh my (09/28/09)

[Zina]

Figured I should start posting here again. BECAUSE I MISSED YOU GUYS. Let's hug.

No, really. Don't touch me.
Start things off with some trades I've been working on...

Trade with Case on FA. Super cute Red Panda/Iguana mix.

Another trade I need to color. Maybe tonight.
I feel I should have made her a little bigger,  but oh wells.

Yet another unfinished trade. Trying to make a crocodile sexy while still making it look like a crocodile proved difficult for me.
Apparently inspired by a character in Donkey Kong, idk.


Ffff I'll try not to forget about you this time, thread. ilu.

*Halts in midair with arms wide open for hugging action, then simply drops to the ground with a "Thump" and backs up a bit.*

Glad to see you returning to the artist circle Zina- it will be super to have you around! As for the things you presented- all great pieces of art, but I have to say I love the middle one- the smug looking, long eared, plump hottie  Can't wait to see her in color.

[Zina]

SO MUCH HAS CHANGED SINCE I'VE BEEN GONE.
I hate what you guys have done with the place.

But seriously. I liked the middle one, too. Not looking forward to coloring it, since she is full of spots. But I will do my best. ffffffndfsosdof.

Glad you approve Zina

The crocodile with the 'fro is giving me serious Rocko's Modern Life flashbacks for some reason.

[e_voyager]

gee i wonder if she';s related to missed bighead. ...

seriously nice work Zina. it's been a long time since i've been able to enjoy you're art and humor here and it's great to see you back.

[Sofox]

Hey Zina, always good to see you.
Like a sheep, I agree the middle one is cool. You have a good knack for doing confident and kick ass poses, without them being over the top or anything (like so much manga, ugh...).

[WhiteFox]

Woo. ZinArts. I thought I was missing my suggested daily serving of Awesome.

How do you ink? Manual or digital?

[Zina]

Manual. I admit the inking in the last two pics doesn't look too good. It was hot and my palms were sweaty, making it hard to hold the pen still. I should have stopped and waited for it to get cooler, but....
oh well.

[Zina]

I couldn't help it, he's so adorable.

Perhaps TOO adorable.

[Turnsky]

ack! mein arteries!


you've prolly given half the forum diabetes, now zina..   

[Zina]

I regret nothing.

[Kipiru]

Daang, woman! You managed to capture all that is anoying about this pain in the neck called Mink! I don't care how cute he is- I still wish to hit him with a shovel 

[Janus Whitefurr]

Mink will devour your soul.

And be so gosh darn adorably cute doing it.

[Paladin Sheppard]

Mink will devour your soul.

And be so gosh darn adorably cute doing it.

Quoted for truth

[WhiteFox]

Ah, the bishi-chibi-squid. Natures most adorable variety of 'Cubi.

Though I'm sure nature had very little to do with it.

[Zina]

D'AAAAW LUV.

This is how most of my friendships work.

Mostly just screaming.

[RJ]

Reminds me a lot of my friendships too... but with less fist-shaking and cursing people. 

[Zina]

Gonna post this here, and then I'm done for the weekend.

ASSURE ME MY LIFE DECISIONS HAVE BEEN ACCEPTABLE.

[Kipiru]

Sadly that applies to a lot of people- me included.

[Malakin]

sounds like the banks talkin

[Sofox]

Both of those are genius.

And yes, it does suck when we stick in terrible positions that we don't do anything to get ourselves out of.
I find talking to other people to be the best way to get myself to put my ass in gear and work my way through things.
Whether you go into detail about your problem or not, I find the different perspective can be illuminating.

[Tapewolf]

Absolutely.

[Lysander]

That picture represents most of the world, I'd think. Very cute nonetheless.   

[WhiteFox]

"Mirr."
"What."
*Snicker*

You know... drawing is like programming. The better you are at it, the fewer lines you need to do something. Brilliant work.

[Zedd]

Your art amuses all our funny bones as always Zina

Hope to see some of the ones in color soon

[Zina]

UGH HERE HAVE SOME PICTURES.

I admit I've never drawn crocodiles or colored afros before, so I got a rare chance to fail at both~! Yaaaaay.

This was surprisingly fun and easy to color, despite the spots. Dunno how I did with the body type, but hopefully she looks decent.

SERIOUSLY, GUYS. THIS PLACE.
IT JUST. IT LACKS ZAZZ.

Probably gonna finish more trades tomorrow. MAYBE.

[Tapewolf]

I like the way the lynx turned out.  Looks like she needs to lose a little weight, though.

Big girls are beautiful, Tapewolf.

Not more so than slimmer one, but that goes the other way around as well   Depends on the person really! She is really cute though
