February Doodle - Ro and Felix

I really wasn't feeling fanart today. I know I said it would be a month of it, but i really just wanted to draw these two. They are my OCs for a graphic novel I wanna make someday. Ro is the warrior, landing in a rather cliche sort of way, and Felix is just cheering her on.

Happy Valentines Day! (Happy Hearts and Hooves day!)

February Love Doodle - Daenerys and her dragons

So I realized that I didn't have any motherly love doodles yet, and the first mother I thought of was Daenerys Mother of Dragons (the second was the mom from Brave). And so here is Daenerys taking a nap with her wee dragons!

I do it for the applause

February Love doodle - Kuranosuke and Tsukimi

When I first saw Jellyfish Princess (kuragehime) I instantly fell in love! And while the message (at least in the anime) is a little... off... (pretty much otaku women should dress nicer, but it's like putting on armor against the world. Pretty much put more care in your appearance, because it's a superficial world out there, and you don't want to be labeled and take advantage of, I guess) I agree, but I don't WANT to agree, ya know?)

In any case, the anime ends after one season, with no resolution. But I loved all the characters, especially Tsukimi and Kuranosuke! And so here's my version of a jellyfish dress n_n enjoy! And if you haven't seen Jellyfish Princess, and enjoy fluffy/slice-of-life animes, I would highly recommend it!

How many were there this time?

February Love Doodle - Xena and Gabrielle

Not going to lie, this one was tough. I knew I wanted Gaby to be fixing up Xena, but their faces! Oh gawd, their faces were so hard to get looking how I imagined... and honestly, I still don't like it 100%. I'll have to come back to it someday, but for now, here it is. I guess in the end, we always wish we could do better, inner critic never shuts up! But that's the point of this doodle a day thing, to keep drawing, work out rusty kinks.

Mario, I baked you a cake

February love doodle - mario and peach

Another nice relaxing pic, with one of the oldest video game couples, Mario and Peach. Mario is FINALLY getting some of that cake, without Bowser interupting! (this cake isn't a lie!)

(as it turns out, it's hard to ink something when you've burnt one of your hotkey fingers... ow...)

When You Wander Over Yonder

February Love Doodle - Wander and Sylvia

I truly adore this show. I love how everything fits together like puzzles pieces, and that Wander and Sylvia are bros. Just wandering the universe with your best pal!

Keep your hands where I can see

February Love Doodle - Brienne and Jaime

Brienne is amazing! I LOVE HER! I WANT TO *BE* HER! She's all strong and bad ass and can hold her own. Her and Jaime have an interesting dynamic. It was fun giving them scars, considering they are both warriors, it would be arrogant to think they never got wounded.

It was hard trying to make this as spoiler-free as possible....

Earth and Sky

February Love Doodles - Earth and Sky

Usagi and Mamoru, somewhere in their time line (I imagine a little older, but before chibi-usa) Sailor Moon was one of my first animes growing up, and it was amazing. I remember waking up at 5 am and sneaking downstairs and watching it, keeping the volume super low as to not wake my parents. Jupiter was always my favorite though. Being a tall girl myself, I felt some of her pain, but really I related with Usagi more. All in all, I'm really looking forward to the reboot, and hopes it gives other little girls role models that we can feel good about them aspiring to be.

I also used this: http://senshistock.deviantart.com/art/Sailor-Meguin-Tuxedo-AJ-4-92696094 as reference for my pose. I suck at romantic couple poses, and this was a real help!

Of course you can have this dance!

February Love Doodle - Of course you can have this dance!

Pinkie and Gummie at a Hearts and Hooves day dance! (The dress was pink, and Rarity worked so hard on it, so of course Pinkie would wear it again!)

Blueberry?

February Love Doodles - Blueberry?
Day 5! YAY!
Aww, the geek-bros! I really loved Tony and Bruce's dynamic in the Avengers movie, they were so cute!

February Love Doodles - I-Inner... inner peace

Day 4!
I loved Groose! I didn't think I would, and maybe it was Video Games Awesome's Frash voicing him in sucha  way that made him so stupidly adorable that won me over, but I loved him all the same. I couldn't imagine Groose being good at meditation, and I couldn't imagine Impa giving a damn.

Elsa and Anna

Do you wanna go out skating?

I promise you won't fall

We can have some fun,

out in the sun!

Come on, it'll be a ball!

February Love Doodles - Sherlock and Watson - Day 02

February Love Doodles - Sherlock and Waston - Day 02

Nothing quite like the smell of tea while trying to sort through your mind palace, eh Sherlock?

Drawing pictures based on real people, and not art/cartoons is tricky. Thor and Loki were easy, there is comic reference for them, and they are BASED on illustrations. Sherlock gave me a hard time. I still don't like how his arms are looking, but it is what it is, and we move on to day 3!

February Doodle Love - Day 01 - Tender Embrace

So I decided in celebration for the month of February, I will try to do a doodle a day showing some form of love (be it romantic, or platonic, etc...) and here is day one!

I recently saw this fandom with Jotun!Loki and Thor, and thought if the two were to be shipped together, this would be the way to go. (they were raised as brothers in cannon... but hey, you're aloud to ship what you want to ship!) In any case, one of my friends REALLY LOVES this pairing, so really, she's the reason I started all this (this is on you, Jen).

Now, I can pretty much guarantee that not all the doodles will be coloured. Pretty much whatever I can get done for that day is what I'll be posting. But I will guarantee that they will be all fanart of one pairing or another!

Wish me luck! And come back tomorrow for another!
