Artsy Experiments: Usagi Tsukino AKA Serena AKA Sailor Moon

So...you might've noticed things are a little quiet around here.

I've been pretty busy not only with conventions, going on vacation to DIDNEYLAAAN but also experimenting with my art and playing around with different styles and trying to meld it with my own.

My guinea pig in this case is the one named SAILOR MOON!

Gotta say, I love the idea of a cute pudgy Usagi. I'm surprised more people don't draw her that way.

SKETCHAVEMBER 2011 Day 24: I Totally Can't Remember...

Day 24 of Sketchavember had me turn to one of my tried-and-true methods for battling a mini-art block: when in doubt, draw something "Sailor Moon" related. (Or bunnies.)

Once again, I took inspiration from the always goofy and outrageous "Sailor Moon: The Abridged Series" (why haven't you checked it out yet?!). Hence why Mina here looks...skankier.

Sailor Moon: The Abridged Toon

Yikes! It's been a while since I've added anything here since Sketchavember wrapped up. Face it, drawing non-stop for a month straight can totally wipe a person out. :-P

It has also come to my attention that I've never uploaded this delightfully deranged drawing on here yet and so I bring you "Sailor Moon: The Abridged Toon".

I remember drawing this when I was in a pretty mopey place and I left that place as soon as I completed this piece. How can "SMA" not cheer up a soul? If you have no clue what I'm talking about or are desperate for some kind of context for the insanity plaguing the scouts (er, senshei for you devout otakus out there ;-)), go check out Megami33's "Sailor Moon: The Abridged Series". It will ruin your childhood in the best way possible.
