How to write a Poem

I’m still alive and I plan to revive the blog too.

Lara’s sister

This is a coloured version of my “Lara’s sister“–Sketch.

The sketch was rough and crooked but I liked her cheeky expression a lot better then here. *sigh*
I guess the moment I manage to realise an illustration that matches the “feeling” of the original sketch will mark the start of a new era of “me skillz”.

I know it is hard to believe but I did not look at reference game stills for this illustration. As I said in the previous post before; I didn’t even consider drawing Lara Croft at all!
When I finished it and compared it with the reboot-Lara I was startled how much I unconsciously copied!
What does that say about me? What does that say about marketing and brain-washing? What does that say about chocolate chip cookie ice cream?!!

(Yes, I cropped the pic. She has shoes. I spend hours on the shoes. HOURS. And then I decided that they looked crappy. I saved you, I spared your lives.)
(Aaaah, yes, this too. I wavered from the path of “flat colours”. Now you see how hard this is for me. I try… I try…)

Got to have a hobby.

She surprised me a lot. Especially with the dry tone.
Probably a very good poker player.

I’ve been thinking about it for some time but I guess it’s time to tackle the stuff: In my next post I want to look into the “Tomb Raider” reboot a little. (Is that correct English? I should get some sleep…)

Some probably didn’t expect game content on this blog. I actually didn’t intend to, but it’s just part of my life; leaving it out would mean to neglect all the opportunities for cool stories.
(I’m pretty shy about being myself.
If you don’t know what I mean: Congrats, I guess your normal.
If you understand me: … Welcome. *eerie grin*)

As always, cheers!
