Hey guys! It’s been a while!
Tadaaa~! a sign of life! There’s a new sketchdump! But that’s actually also the only drawing I did since april, which is kinda depressing.
Well… another 2 weeks and I’ll be done with University; FOREVER!
I’ll (hopefully) get my Bachelor of Arts in Japanese Studies and after that I’m free until August.
I also move in 2 weeks, which means I have to pack all my drawing stuff in boxes D’:
So about another 3 weeks and I’ll be fully back with an Update for you followers every week!
May 2013 Artist Feature
Before I forget it :) Animations by BRIANS FILM with the Director Jin Sung Choi. Seriously, this is kinda creepy. But I like the style, animation and the colors…. not sure about the story line. It surely is special!
Also beautiful: Trailer of “The Customized Play” by the same director.

Simple Pop Up Cards
I made a Pop Up card for my sister’s wedding (pic 1-5) last year and now one for my friend’s birthday. They’re reeeeeeally simple. approx. 1h/card (maybe 1.5 for the wedding card)
Random Watercolor Doodle.
Approx. 2h
May is always a very busy month; so I’m not quite sure yet if I can upload anything else than this until the end of the month. We’ll see.
My scanner’s a bitch. Still taking recommendations for a new one ;D
Sketchdump. Studying Poses (reference: posemaniacs) and sketching in my travelling sketchbook. I really have to study anatomy. But I’m so lazy .___. I prefer randomly trying out… I’ll move in summer, so I decided to get an anatomy study book after that. Any recommendations?
whaa I just don’t get why my scanner makes the colors so grayish (compare blue sketch. The background is supposed to be baby pink sth…)
Spring finally arrived in Switzerland!
We had a terribly long winter here. So I cleaned up our balcony and did this Sunday afternoon color practice.
The scanner ate all the colors once again, so I attached an iPhone shot once again.
Oh well. It’s once of the sketches that came with the January sketch dump (see pic 3), I slighty tried to change for the better and failed. When will I ever get the anatomy thing? (To be honest… I also don’t feel like study anatomy stuff, but more prefer to try out until I get it right xD)
Saturday nights on tumblr. Just came back from work and decided to upload the cheerleader. It’s the colored version of the sketch I made a few days ago. Just a small color pencil warm up. And I messed up the face (mostly the eyes xD)
Caran D’Ache Pencils, 11.4.2013
Sry for the bad scan. In reality the colors are more vivid. I really need to get a new scanner when I move in summer D:
Any recommendations?

April 2013 Artist Feature: Pipra Darling
Just stumbled upon Pipra while browsing tumblr and decided to do
an Artist feature. Because basing on her deviantArt pageviews, she definitely doesn’t get the attention she deserves.
Lovely style! You should browse her gallery!
Happy Easter!
I present you the march 2013 sketch dump.
And it’s really a dump. I feel like I didn’t even manage to draw a simple pose this month. That’s why I tried and tried over and over again to draw some simple poses.
One might realize the “vintage” feeling in some…. I watched ‘the notebook’ this month and I liked the clothing in there so much <3
most of them are really quick sketches (except for the animal studies) and some of them I did in the train :-/
March 2013 Artist Feature: KAI
Yeah, Probably a lot of you (girls) know him already.
I’ve only discovered the art of Kai (also known as khaoskai) recently. It’s not only the Visual Kei/Punk style that fascinates me as a former Visual Kei Fangirly, but mostly also the watercolor technique. It’s so precise and strong in colors it makes me go from admiration to jealousy back to admiration and motivation to try harder myself.
Take a look, enjoy, support:
Unfinished pictures dump xP
Some of the pictures I’m never going to finish or add details as I wanted to.
Picture 1: wow… that’s like from Summer 2011. I didn’t finish it because it was just a picture for my mood, because I was feeling like an ice queen, without any emotions etc xD
Picture 2: I actually liked that one when I started it, but I just didn’t have enough patience to finish it. It was my first try with PaintTool SAI, and I remember I didn’t like the programm at first
Picture 3: Just a random Chibi Paint Tryout, which I soon gave up on, because it just looked weird to me. So I just started another portrait practice. July 2012
Picture 4: I really liked this one a lot when I started it and still kinda do. I just didn’t have the patience to redo the nose at that time and kinda forgot to finish it afterwards… August 2012
Picture 5: Another portrait practice that got out of hand. I started coloring it too carefully and I kinda lost interest in it with the time, because I never wanted it to be that detailed. November 2012
Picture 6: December 2012. Another kind of “Ice Queen” or “Moth Queen” thingy I wanted to paint. I just got too busy with other things and after that I just didn’t feel like working out all the mistakes I made on this one and decided to start another one another time ;D
Picture 7: A recent unfinished one from February 2013. I kinda liked the style but hated the technique I used and decided to leave it as it is before messing it up completely…
doodling with Photoshop.
I’m so out of practice drawing at the computer >___<
