Backstabbed
One of my earlier violent drawings. In case you cannot tell, the fighter in the back is stabbing the one in the front with a sword.

A Female Jedi
Here is another early drawing. I obviously like Star Wars, so here is a Jedi. She probably does not need the blaster, though.

Kelinda and Velina
A VERY early drawing, these were my initial concepts of my two MUD characters. At least as far as I could draw them. |

Kelinda with Katana
Despite my odd naming scheme, this was actually my first drawing of Kelinda. I did not find out until after I drew this that my
character's class made her not only incapable of magic, but it also gave her an extreme aversion to it. |

Kelinda Close-up
This is one of my favorite pencil drawings, and it was also one of the longest to do. This was the second version of Kelinda that I
imagined. |

Kelinda in Pose
I drew this right after the close-up, as to keep the image fresh in my mind. I think the close-up turned out better |

My First Knight
This is the first page in my sketchbook. I was heavily influenced by a character from Final Fantasy Tactics. Hard to believe
that this eventually became Velina. |

Full Plate Armor
After drawing my first knight, I realized her armor was sort of poorly arranged, so I went to the library and got a book on armor. This
was a sketch I did of as complete a set of plate as I could conceive at the time. |

Quicksand
I have a strange fixation with quicksand, so I decided one day to draw some. This is the result. |

Rogue
I used to collect comics, especially anything X-Men. Rogue was one of my favorite characters, so I attempted to draw her in colored
pencil. |

Velina and the Holy Silver Dragon
Velina is one of my MUD characters, and a healer. Originally however, she was a warrior, and this is how I pictured her. The dragon in the
background has nothing to do with and MUD. Instead, it was actually the subject of an earlier project that I had to do in school. |

Velina Recuperates
When I first finished this drawing, it was instantly my favorite. To some degrees, I still like it more than most of my more recent ones. |

Velina in Combat
This drawing was part of some strange story I was developing. The story never got anywhere. |

Kelinda's First Coloring
When I first bought a scanner for my new computer, I was so intent on doing some things with my drawings that I tried to color a drawing
without really knowing how to. This was done in MS Paint. It was mostly done just to do something. |

Kelinda in Color...Again
This drawing took place long after the previous one, after I knew what I was doing. Naturally, it came out significantly better. |

Kelinda's Depression
This was the first of a set of three drawings that marked my first use of color and shading on the computer. However, it was done in a
poor way, and the results show. I sometimes think I ought to do this one as a regular pencil drawing someday. |

A Peaceful Kelinda
The second in the set of three, this was probably also the worst. I thought of a cute outfit for Kelinda, but in the execution of it I
totally botched it. |

Kelinda Cries
The third of the set, and not any better. This was supposed to be somewhat of a rarity of events for Kelinda, but I feel my drawing
did not capture any feeling. |

Kelinda's Contentedness
I finally improved my technique a bit here. I also tried to use an anime style face, and although it did not turn out quite right, I still like
the drawing overall. |

Kelinda in Training
Strange, that one of my later drawings of Kelinda takes her back to her youth. Here she is in her teenage years. She is a bit tom-boyish
at the time. |

Spellbane
Alas, due to technical difficulties with the MUD she existed on, Kelinda never got to use her spellbane ability. |

Kelinda and Psyduck??
I hate to admit it, but yes I think some Pokemon are kind of cute. And what better companion for young Kelinda than a confused
psyduck? |

Lily's Magic
At the request of a rl friend of mine from the same MUD, I drew one of her characters. I am not sure that my depiction exactly
matches what she envisions, but I hope it is somewhat close. |

Lily Sunshine
After having drawn the first Lily, a new composition occured to me in the middle of an Economics lecture. I did a quick sketch there, and
did the real thing not too much later. |

Sarah in Quicksand
The same friend who asked me to draw her MUD character saw my pencil quicksand drawing, and asked me to do one of her in quicksand.
I very quickly responded. |

Velina Heals
This drawing took place not too long after my first try at color on Kelinda. Also did this in Paint. I did add the lens flare later in
another program. |

Surrounded by Hostility
I did this drawing a little bit after that horrendous set of three Kelindas. This one thankfully came out a little better than those. |

Velina, Battle Ready
After having changed Velina's outfit for the two previous drawings, this was her return to her original self, mostly. This was also the
best result I could get in my outmoded flood fill technique. Everything after this was done using layers. |

Velina's Nap
I had originally intended to do this drawing as I had done the ones before it, but I could never get it quite right. Finally I learned new
techniques, and went back to this drawing to finish it. |

Young Kelinda
I actually drew this picture just to be a graphic in another part of the page, but it turned out relatively well, so I added a decided to post
it here as well. |
