Kids And Robots Three:R.A.S


So here is the third in the Kids and Robots series-and this girl is the owner of the R.A.S robot (Rain and Storm), hence the galoshes and umbrella...and teddy bear with rainbow...and barometer...and weird pink liquid...(don't ask me, I just felt it would be a little lively pinch of color).

I'm getting these down a little quicker. I have an issue with patience. I see the whole thing as I want it to be done, but it frustrates me that it takes time to get them done. I start coloring, and I wish I had a little magic wand to make the computer do what I want. The cool thing about computers though, is they save you the time of boring tedious things you would have had to do before, like tracing things. Thank goodness for the ability to have a program trace things for you. And color them in. Or remove stray lines, and what not.

Ohhhh....I can't wait for this week to be over with. I'm looking for the weekend...I'm looking for the weekend. I hope I get Monday off, I requested it because I'm just so exhausted. (Of course, that would give me ample time to color more stuff...and watch bad tv!)

And (in the event my readers of my commic make their way to this blog, or even glance at it-to hear me ramble like a silly one), thanks for the kind comments! Honestly! They make me happy.

Kids and Robots-Robot Two: MAD


So here's the second one in my little Kids and Robots series. So far-I have five drawn. 2 colored. It's fun, but coloring this way takes a llittle longer (plus the page sizes are larger). This is the MAD robot, which stands for Missiles and Deflection. Her owner is a punk rock Indian girl-so I did a mixture of English and Indian clothing influences (and color!). One of my best friends is Indian-and I always wondered what she would look like as a punk rock chick if I dressed her. Maybe something like this. The colors I tried to take from a lot of the saris and other garb I'd see her and her family wearing, and they're always these amazing oranges and pinks and greens.
