Halloween Booty

Man, I really struggled with getting over my art funk. It took getting intoxicated to bust out of it. And this is the result. HALLOWEEN BOOTY. Click it to see it full sized and not all squished and stupid looking.


Here are some detail shots of it, once again clicky for full size


So my birthday is next month. Anyone wanna commission me so I can buy myself some sweet birthday presents? Like Arkham City? AND I STILL DON'T HAVE THE NEW AMERICAN MCGEE'S ALICE, I NEED THAT TOO. I am yelling.

Grumpy Gunther

I AM SO GROUCHY TODAY IT ISN'T EVEN FUNNY.
I was woken up this morning by my 13 year old brother-in-law calling both my phone and V's phone 10 times to tell us we left V's jacket at his house. It is cute now but half asleep Kate was NOT amused.
AND THEN in my attempts to fall back asleep (a rarity for me, once I'm up I am UP), V rolled over, took my pillow, and took up the entire bed. He may look like a pretty light dude but boy I tell you what when he is asleep he weighs 400 lbs and nothing can wake him up ever. So I got up and moved to the living room to lay on the couch and watch Jersey Shore (gots to watch my show yo).
AND THEN there were some horrible children in the hallway bouncing a ball that kept hitting my door and our neighbor's doors. Their father was in the hallway as well and he kept telling them to stop in the most droll and monotone voice ever. So I had to watch Snooki and Deena drunkenly fall over one another with the background noise of "thwack thwack thwack" that I probably could have taken care of if I wasn't so damn lazy.
AND THAT IS WHY I AM A GROUCHY GUNTHER.

I started to lay down the colors on this picture I'm doing right now but sometime within the past week I've forgotten how to color so I've restarted about a bajillion times.


Now if you excuse me I'm going to go clean my room and stare down my cat hatefully.

Kasumi is a Jerk

My cat Kasumi is an asshole (CORRECTION: VLIXX'S cat Kasumi, my cat is Osiris and he is awesome). She is this big ol' pile of lovey dovey fluff that is hellbent on destroying everything. I have mastered the fine art of ignoring the hell out of her, but she still manages to capture the hearts of everyone else in the world.

So I decided to illustrate a typical day in the life of Kate. Note: this all takes place within an hour.

ART BLOCK

Woe is me, Blogger, for I have had Artist's Block up until maybe 3 hours ago. With the help of trusty 4chan's /S/, I managed to dredge up enough reference material of super smoking hot babes to pull me out of my rut. It is always awkward for me to be digging through nudie girly pictures for reference and have someone catch me at it. I have yet to have a single person believe that I stockpile these pictures for artistic purposes. OH WELL.
Here is a peek at the image that pulled me out of the rut. I'll let you in on a little secret, Blogger: I'm designing a calendar. This girl is going to be the October pinup.

October is my favorite month in the entire history of ever. Why? A) SPOOKY EVERYTHING CUZ OF HALLOWEEN B) HALLOWEEN C) PUMPKIN FLAVORED EVERYTHING D) MY BIRTHDAY IS IN OCTOBER YAY

The other day while trying to pull myself out of my art block I doodled 2 chicks I know. Well...I doodled their Dragoncon makeup actually.

On the right is Elyse and on the left is Brittney. They had some rad costuming going on at con. YUP.

Now if you'll excuse me, I must go watch the season finale of True Blood that I already accidentally saw the spoilers for. THANKS ONTD. The last one I downloaded was a fake so I'm hoping this one works or I'm punching everything ever.

Vlixx Remixes Kerli

A few weeks back, Kerli announced a remix competition for her song Army of Love. We absolutely love Kerli so Vlixx decided to join in. Only...he waited until 5 hours before it was due to do it. And he was wearing my Rilakkuma Kigurimi as well for no damn reason.
We ended up submitting it two minutes before the deadline. So go have a listen and give it a vote!

Goth Girls and Donkey Shows

My days are becoming one big blur. I find myself addicted to caffeinated beverages and staying up until 5 am watching Married with Children and youtube videos of cats. Being unemployed is turning me into a loser with every passing minute.
The only thing keeping me afloat right now are my commissions. Here is the one I'm working on right now. I forgot how to draw dreadlocks for a minute and got really confused drawing them.


Recently it was Love A Ginger Day and to celebrate we went to my number 1 ginger loving friend Nicole's house. My friend Filip and I are closeted ginger kids and allowed our non ginger friends to catch a glimpse of what gingers truly do behind closed doors.

Afterwards we proceeded to kidnap the local Damsel in Distress (aka DiD) and tied her to the train tracks. And as your attorney I advise you to never ever tell anyone of what I just said.

I also finally got into Pottermore yesterday. My username is FelicisWolf5 so feel free to add me. I'm in Gryffindor, y'all.

Hellooo

Hey there! I guess I should do a quick introduction before I start a-postin' away. My name is Kate, also known as etaK. I am an illustrator, a fierce bootydancer, keyboardist for the band Helltrash, and best friend to cats everywhere. I'll be updating this blog with drawings, doodles, pictures, and basically anything else I want. BECAUSE I CAN.

So to start out, have a sneak peek at the Bayonetta I'm drawing for the Toon-Up art jam. I didn't realize how many itty bitty little details went into her damn costume :o


I just spent the past weekend at Dragoncon with some amazing company. I'll make a full post on my conventure in the next few days, I'm still recovering right now.
Check out what I wore on Sunday (with Loki, the bassist of Helltrash).

The leather we are both wearing is made by the lovely Angelica Syn of Synthflesh. I cannot sing the praises of her leatherwork enough, she is self taught and everything!

Well my children, I will be back with more drawings of busty ladies and photographs of even more busty ladies.
