In the nick of time
So! I finished my October tasks (mostly)! Yay!
Recap:
- Made Sokka costume for bro and sent it off: robe, boot covers, boomerang pouch, necklace (3 evenings) Here's a picture:
- GRADING for 1st quarter (2 weeks). This was the unexpected thing. Oops. I've taken the past week off from grading in compensation, in order to:
- Drew a batch of Matriarchy icons (2-3 evenings). I still have about 2 evenings worth of icons (the 4 more complex ones), and probably 1-2 evenings for the poster, so I'll probably tackle that soon. I'll probably make a sketchblog post of the better ones soon. (I drew a water wheel! And taels of silver!)
- Made Okita Souji outfit (3-4 evenings). I got to use up a lot of fabric bits that I had lying around! To make this, I first looked at the costume design for Okita in Kenshin, Peacemaker Kurogane, and Hakuouki Shinsengumi Kitan, and I decided to go with the Hakuouki one because it looked the most interesting and traditional. Plus I was intrigued by the combination of colors. Anyway, here's me today at school, a self-photo using Photo Booth (so ghetto!)
- Finished the last pages of my 5-page practice comic! (2 evenings) I was worried that I wouldn't be able to finish in October, since I had so many other things to do, and it seemed like I was making NO PROGRESS at all. But then last night and tonight, I was like, "Hey, I don't have anything else to do, I can spend the whole evening on this!" So I did. 3 Big Bang Theory episodes and 3 Glee episodes later, I'm done! All that's left is to scan and post, which I'll do tomorrow. :D
Oh, we also had a board game party and a Halloween Party. :D I've discovered Quiche to be an awesome party food, and have figured out how to "wing it", so I'm quite happy about that, though for the next party I might go for some fried wontons.
