the oubliette.
 
 
In the movie "The Labyrinth", that Hoggle guy said "An oubliette is a place where you put people to forget about them!"  Not that I neccesarily mean to forget about these pics, 'cause I actually do like some of them.  And others I wish would spontaneously combust.  Umm... actually, it's just that I like the word 'oubliette'.  I do.  I liked "The Labyrinth" even more because it had an oubliette in it.  Same goes for "First Knight" and that one episode of the X-Files.  I want to do a story or something and title it "Oubliette" for no particular reason.
 
 
foxfairy.jpg -- My kind friend Saki was letting me try out her Winsor and Newton inks, so I turned out this little scribble.  It's sort of Nakayoshi-style.  Note the pink hair and yellow skin.  ^_^;;  "Foxfairy" is just something that popped into my head, although there are no concrete indications that she's either a fox or a fairy.
touga_shriek.jpg -- It's rare that I actually really dislike an anime character, but Touga from Shojo Kakumei Utena makes the distinction.  Aside from the fact that he's an asshole amd a sleaze, there's just something about his aura that's indescribably slimy and icky.  Hence this doodle.  He's quoting Austin Powers, by the way.
hades_sk.jpg -- A quick sketch of Hades, from a comic I might be doing someday.  No, really.
darthsan_sk.jpg -- An alternate full-body version of the Darth Mononoke pic I eventually ended up submitting for the Star Wars MAA.  I don't know what Darth Maul's outfit really looked like. ^^;
yamato.jpg -- I blame Rei for first introducing me to the concept of taking a plain pencil sketch, applying a few choice Photoshop filters, and passing it off as finished art. ^^;  The difference is that Rei's 'plain pencil sketches' are clean, beautifully detailed vignettes, and mine are half-assed crap.  Hence this Monthly Anime Outcasts submission.
xjedi_sk.jpg -- One of my initial ideas for the Star Wars MAA topic: Subaru and Kamui as Qui-Gonn and Obi-Wan.  I'm no huge Kamui fan, but I gotta admit, he makes a cute little jedi. ^_-
newyear1999.jpg -- an okay pencil sketchie of Kakyou from X, glitzed up with Photoshop filters and fonts.  This was my New Year's picture, in case you couldn't figure it out.
no-name.JPG -- okay, it's official -- I HATE THIS CG.  He's too goddamned skinny, his face looks retarded, and his outfit looks like something worn by Leo Di-buggery-Caprio!!!  I used to love this pic, but lingered over the coloring for months and months, like my Eric Gen CG.  Now I wish it would die!!!  The worst part is that this guy is one of my favorites among my characters and I can't even get him to look decent .  GAAAAHHH!!!!!!  XP
alanadodge.JPG -- God this is horrible.  Her face is messed up and her sword looks like it was forged by a cross-eyed goblin.  I don't know what exactly prompted me to color this abomination; I think I liked her pose at the time. 
ADnD.JPG -- a really old ink thingy of my character Alana and that dragon.  They both look pretty different now, but this is still kinda cute.
mousit.jpg -- Mousse was always, and still is, my favorite character in Ranma 1/2.  This is actually an okay sketch of him.
fvansit.JPG -- a very old pencil sketch of Van Fanel from Escaflowne.  I had yet to master the fine art of drawing him.  ^_-
