A historic moment in human history. Kalwa becomes the first human in history to successfully pet a raptor, and no bite marks!

This was just a little small project I did shortly after chapter 19 when Kalwa got her hair cut. I seriously love drawing swimsuit girls and drawings with water and all the effects that go with it. I had also drawn Kalwa once before in a two piece swimsuit, so I decided to draw this as a way to let viewers know this haircut was gonna stick around!

It’s been a pretty busy week for me. It’ really hard to work on these pages when you get off at 7 pm and then gotta eat dinner and unwind after the long day. However I am still working, and we will have new pages very soon. Here’s actually a little preview of the very next page which I plan on inking more of when I get home from work tonight! You can expect to see this completed page sometime this weekend and the final page of chapter 22 next week.

So I thought I would show off something a little different today as it’s a project I’ve worked on for quite a while. This is my graphic novel library which has essentially been completed at last. I’ve had several of these books for quite some time, once I moved to my new house I started expanding in a way I always wanted.
Last summer was all about Marvel, this summer was about DC comics and now it’s all complete. Those top three shelves on the left is my manga section which is practically dominated by the entire series of Naruto. Truth be told even though I draw mostly in a manga style, I actually don’t read much manga mostly due to the large amount of volumes and space, I do however watch more anime than read manga. I mostly read superhero comics but do indulge in other stories such as Fathom, W.I.T.C.H., and Sonic the Hedgehog, also the Mirage Studios TMNT are a constant inspiration to me given the comics backstory. Otherwise a lot of my ideas come from TV and movies.
That’s not to say that other comics don’t inspire my work. I usually try to read during down time to try to inspire myself and learn various techniques to better my work, as well as taking notes from people I find around the internet. So you can see right here a piece of my studio on full display!

You know the old saying never step on a snake? Well here’s an answer as to why. This page was somehow a real treat to draw mainly because of the final panel where the snake lunges. I actually did have a reference image of a snake on my computer with its mouth opened up and was basically copying right from it. Somehow I feel it came out looking perfect and I’m really not an expert at drawing animals!
