Sailor Senshi

You guessed it. More Sailor Moon. I’ll stop saying I’m done painting fanart of the character because clearly I’m lying. For some reason, I’m just having a really good time re-imagining Usagi, so maybe I should just keep painting her until it’s out of my system. I blame this new interpretation of her on my recent trip to Japan. Seeing all of the advertisements throughout Tokyo got me feeling creative. I wanted to paint Sailor Moon as a spokesperson and figured strawberry Bubble Tea would be a product she’d get behind. :D

Another image under the cut shows the illustration without the product shot and Japanese kanji. The style for this illustration was inspired by modern pin-up posters.

Sailor Senshi

This is just the result of a quickie sketch I made in my notebook. It was a pretty big style-departure for me so I figured I would try my hand at digitally rendering it to see what type of results I would get. Creating lineart was certainly new. I labelled this guy as a self-portrait mostly because I gave him the outfit I was wearing that day. I’m not that cute. :)

Some process, as always, is under the cut.

Come Alive Typography

Wow. I have been BUSY. I likely won’t be able to make an actual update for a while longer but wasn’t comfortable letting things get too stagnant. Here’s a bit of fun typography from something I’m doing at work this week. Sometimes it’s just fun to be a little more playful and create something from nothing. It’s too easy to just pick a typeface. Much more rewarding this way. ;)

Sailor Moon

I actually sat down with the intention of doing a Holiday-themed illustration, but somehow wound up drawing Sailor Moon instead. As always, see the full-sized image and the working process under the cut!
