Some fan art from my current favorite web comic, Wizard School.

Ultima – Rune of Honor…weather stone?
I had a really ridiculous thought while drawing this. I wish I would have thought of it in time to add a sign to the drawing, but have you ever thought that maybe Gordon and/or Finnegan was using the Rune of Honor as a weather stone? The sign would read:
Weather Rune of Honor
| Condition | Forecast |
|---|---|
| Rune is Wet | Rain |
| Rune is Dry | No Rain |
| Rune has Shadow | Sun |
| Rune is White | Snow |
| Rune is Hazy | Fog |
| Rune is Sliding | Wind |
| Rune is Vibrating | Tremor |
| Rune is Glowing | Mages |
| Rune is Gone | Avatar |
Grr Arg
I’m admittedly having a pretty shitty day. I wanted to draw something else entirely but my hand didn’t want to stay still. What I *really* wanted to do was pull out a big 24″ x 36″ sheet of paper and attack it with some charcoal. I’m sure this would have made me feel much better. Regardless, this is the drawing that happened today. Take it or leave it.

Another Denis Loubet illustration. I learned today that I already need new pens. It’s a shame. The tips of the Zig pens get too fat too quickly, in my opinion. It’s such a waste of ink.
Anyone out there have any experience with rapidograph pens?
Ultima Manual Images – Ghost (Dag Yo!)
Reference: Ultima Ghost
Another of Denis Loubet’s illustrations, this time with a little interpretation of my own. (The arm movement, not the obvious textual addition)
Interestingly, after I finished drawing the ghost, I gave it a strong outline in preparation to fill the background entirely with black: Progress Shot. I actually liked how graphical and almost graffiti like it looked with this super hefty outline, however, I kept on and filled it in. About halfway through blacking the background, I decided I wanted to put in some lines, but not until after I’d filled in the bottom. Oh well. Plan ahead or carry around some white ink I suppose.

Here there be derp.
Just some mindless self indulgence.

This one is fun for a few reasons.
First of all, it’s a request. A Zelda-crazed friend of mine requested “You should draw a redead, sitting alone in the dark.” I figured he’d be lonely. I imagine him as a tragic intellectual with a tremendous urge for companionship who just wants a playmate and a hug but the mask prevents that when he’s around people. *shrug*
Second of all, it’s one of the rare times, if not the first time, that I sketched in pencil before drawing over it in ink. I also did some warm up sketches to get ready.
It’s certainly one of the creepier things I’ve drawn in a while. Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s instantly recognizable, so I wouldn’t consider it to be a success.
OMG Berks!

Another Denis Loubet image. I enjoyed the shading along the spine of the front book as it reminded me a bit of the “clip art” style shading that I tend to do. I probably could have employed the use of a sharpie on the black parts but unfortunately I didn’t bring it with me.
If you read Britannian runes, you may enjoy the text in the book. 😉
