I bought a sketchbook and a couple of sketchy-pens. This means I might actually draw something, but the most likely outcome is that I will scribble in it for about 15 seconds then realise I suck at drawing or can't come up with an idea, so I will go do something else....

I really want to make a comic, even though I've been saying it for years and never come up with a good enough story. I think if I ever did come up with a decent enough plot line, it would be fun to take photos of characters/backgrounds as reference for drawing, especially the things I'm crap at making up, like background scenes and detail in clothes, and action things. I think I should stop referencing everyone else's art and reference real life instead. I want proper characters that have as many faults as they have qualities, and suck as much as they kick ass. Have them do stuff that is meaningful in terms of the story, while doing stuff which means nothing at all...

Oh well, here goes my 15 seconds of scribbles! \o/

Also my xmas present from Malc is full of win - Photoshop Elements 7!

PS - New couchness:



I bought curtains to match today but haven't got them up yet.
