On BioShock DLC and Some Other Stuff

So yesterday the first story DLC was announced for BioShock Infinite was announced, in which you play part of it as Elizabeth, and it takes place in Rapture. That just made me really excited, because it sounds SO COOL. Also, the first non-story DLC actually came out yesterday, which introduces a Horde-like mode. I'm not hugely pumped about that, but since I bought the Season Pass, I got it anyway. There are some pieces of unlockable art and stuff, so I'll probably give it a try, but I've not loved combat-based DLC in the past. But maybe this one will be fun, who knows.

Otherwise, I spent some time in the last two days working on drawing on my tablet. Instead of doing a comic, I decided to just do a regular drawing, since I figured that would be just as good for practice. And I think it was, too, as I could feel myself getting a bit more comfortable with it even as I progressed through the single drawing. So hopefully I'll keep at it and getting better, to the point where I can actually start on my webcomic idea. Seems like I'm gonna have to build up my hand muscles though, cause my hand was pretty sore after finishing it today, lol.

Anyway, I decided to draw Lady Deathstrike. She was always one of my favourite X-Men villains, because she looks really cool and has a cool name. Then, even though she wasn't actually in The Wolverine, I kinda got inspired to do it from all the Japan-y stuff in there. Originally I was kind of planning to do my own take on her costume, but it ended up pretty much being the same as her original one. Oh well. The only semi-difference is her arms. My idea was to have them be basically just her adamantium-laced bones, with some machiney stuff in the middle. The machiney stuff just turned out to be some lines, though...because I am lazy, and not good at drawing little intricate stuff like that. Oh well again.

So I guess all in all, it turned out okay. Obviously I'm not very good at drawing, but it came out about as good as I can draw with a pencil on paper, so that's encouraging for me. It's a lot easier to edit digital drawings, so that's why I wanted to learn to use the tablet in the first place. Only problem is that it took a lot longer to do this, since I kind had to go over it multiple times to clean up the lines, but I think that will improve in time. Anyway, here it is.
