Old Chinese School commissions

I'm in the process of polishing my website and came across some old Chinese school commissions that I did back in ... 2007? Anyway, here they are, for the curious.

These two are about 项羽




These 3 are illustrating 3 different poems

New Chinese School commissions!

I spent the last 2 weeks drawing 5 comics for the new Chinese School textbook. It was really good practice for making comics "full digital"! I figured out how to make panels and speech bubbles using Photoshop. (I have Manga Studio, but found that I spend more time figuring out the obtuse interface than actually drawing.) Here are 2 of them. Quite different from 2007, eh?

This is that famous Confucius analect where he describes his life.


This is the famous Zen story about not needing to be literate in order to understand Zen.

Last batch of Matriarchy art

I finished the last batch of Matriarchy art back in February, and didn't get around to posting them... so here are some selections. (Of course not showing all of them, since I think the point is to play the game...?)

I had to draw an old woman and a young girl:





I also had to draw some groups of malcontents. It's always hard to draw group scenes that fit onto 90x90 pixels, but I got better with each group. The Tibetans, being my last group, looks pretty decent. (Compare that to some of the armies that I drew a year ago)



Also, back in November of last year I drew some pin-ups of the ministers, as well as a big fancy palace.
