Selan draws too much: THE THREAD

Pickle Inspector: The best doctor.

More arts time~



I've been trying to figure out how to draw more Problem Sleuth characters! Yaaaaay here's PS.

And then on the non-MSPA front,



Another illustration for my Minecraft blog =B I like it a lot but I hate dark pictures since I never know how they'll look on other monitors, and getting them to look good in print is always such tricky business... hummmmm

*runs off to play more Minecraft*

The colors on the second one are really lovely! Dark and subtle, yet the add so much. The glowing bits are nicely done, again with pretty color effect. The small wisps are just right in amount.

Looks good on my computer, don't worry.

[SleuthSession]

Please draw more cute Problem Sleuth art! I love the way you draw those characters. Especially pairings. *hopes for a PS x HD pic*

Oh and more Doctor Who, please! You're pic of Eleven is not nearly as bad as you say it is

This. Is. Gorgeous.
I am extremely impressed that you somehow manged to make a picture that is both atmospheric and gloriously glowy, but still has minecraft's signature blockiness. It almost makes me want to play minecraft. Almost.

[selanpike]

I have a new genderswap thing!



Don't know why I didn't do this sooner, the original is one of my favorite images in Homestuck...

Anyway!! Can you guys help me figure something out? I have a convention coming up and since I can't sell MSPA stuff, I wanna do a giveaway instead.
(Can't help it, I love printing things!)
Except I can't think of how it'll work. I don't wanna just be like "first person to ask for stuff gets it" because then it'll be gone too fast and also I'd rather do a contest because that's more fun, but I can't think of a good contest... anyone have any ideas?
The sort of contest with multiple winners is best because I'll probably print a bunch of posters.

Also I gotta decide which pictures to print for said giveaway... ehh so much work D=

[Varkarrus]

You do a peice of art for the person who can solve a very difficult riddle first? Or at all, I guess?

Or a "come up with a contest" contest

[Wiwaxia]

I like the riddle idea.

As for what to print, how about your "or shit is safe" picture, because...
...that's the one I'd want, honestly.

Also, you can sell MSPA stuff if you clear it with Andrew first.

[audience_cat]

Will you be posting internationally? I'd want the meteor conversation one, I think that's the best. Maybe you could draw a picture and have a caption contest? Or an art contest, best pictures get a print?

[Coasterman29]

I like the idea of a caption contest, and we need more Jake and Ross!

[selanpike]

Caption contest actually sounds like a pretty spiff idea! Placing that idea on the top of the list.

And Wiwaxia, I actually am thinking I might ask Hussie if I can sell things, but there's really not enough time before this con to do that. I only have two weeks and I'm not actually doing a lot of printing and I'd definitely want to do a nicer picture of all the kids with full bleed and... But yeah, I'm gonna ask his permission before my next one in February!
(and if he says no, more giveaways~)

As for which picture I'm gonna give away, I think I have it figured out! All of them =B I'm just gonna print two each of five pictures. One of them is a collage of a bunch of my genderswap pictures! I can't wait to see it printed...

Anyway I drew more Problem Sleuth last night. It's a pairing, but it's a dumb pairing XD

[SleuthSession]

Oh that is adorabloodthirsty, even if I do associate PI more with Clubs. Great work!

[audience_cat]

Shush, no, that is one of the best pairings. I was actually going to request PS/SS but I figured no, nobody follows that crossover, don't be silly. But you have proved again that you are an awesome multi-fandom artist.

[selanpike]

Man I might do some PS/SS, that's an awesome pairing too, but knowing me I'll just stick to PI-related ones because damn I love PI XD
Man I should write some fanfiction! But I dunno if I could write Droog very well... bluuhhhh...

Oh yeah, I have more genderswap stuff.



Holy crap I did a troll, what what
The trolls are so much harder to genderswap, as they have no sense of fashion (except Kanaya) that would change upon genderswapping and their names are harder to make the opposite sex. So difficult =X

You can't make out her hairstyle well here, so here's ladyKarkat in concept sketch form:



I drew the Cancer sign backwards, derp.

[ArmsAreLoud]

Daww cute hairstyle

Perhaps you could do bent Kanaya? His name is Kanuck and he is sweeping all the men off all their feet in all the jazz clubs in all the universes.

I guess what I am saying here is essentially Smooth Criminal Kanaya.

[Wiwaxia]

Fem!Karkat's right. Joan really needs to put those eyebrows back down, before she reaches potentially reality-threatening levels of cute.

Also, seconding everything AAL said.
Especially male!Kanaya. Especially if he's crushing on Ross.

[ArmsAreLoud]

GA: Hey Handsome
GA: How Would You Like To Take A Smooth Ride With a Smoother Man
TT: Though I am admittedly flattered, I must reject your proposal. I am not interested in men.
GA: I Can Fix That

[audience_cat]

Lmfao, AAL. Thank you for that, I am going to have to use that someday. By for now I would settle for fanart.

[ArmsAreLoud]

I hope you find your endeavors successful! A sudden decrease in the amount of straight men in the world would certainly be beneficial to me.

this has been an episode of armsareloud can hijack anything: the animated series

[selanpike]

So oh man guys I've got a week till this convention I'm going to and I have so much work to do for my art table and my panel and

and I'm so spending all that time drawing shit instead of working =B
The fruits of my procrastination are thus:



Drawn when I failed to draw proper DDxPI makeouts.



Team Sleuth picture I've been meaning to do for a while! I meant for it to be more dynamic but I kind of like it this way too.
Too bad I couldn't get the pose right on PI though, I wanted to have him fumbling the hairpin. =d

Welp, off to go procrastinate while doing other things!! =D

[SleuthSession]

Okay, I now like Droog x PI. The smart comparison between the two is far better than the cute comparison to Deuce. Oh, and your pose as a team pic is great. Inspector just kind of standing off to the side and staring incredulously at his hairpin is great for some reason.

[audience_cat]

Drawn when I failed to draw proper DDxPI makeouts.

...I just tried to imagine makeouts drawn in your style, and it wouldn't happen. DD and PI's heads just sorta kept bumping into each other like ping-pong balls.

[Coasterman29]

Tongue action?

[selanpike]

...I just tried to imagine makeouts drawn in your style, and it wouldn't happen. DD and PI's heads just sorta kept bumping into each other like ping-pong balls.

That's sort of what happens, yes XD
Sometimes I can manage to draw makeouts though, albeit rarely. Like so:



(original characters oh noes)
