Tuesday, 7.6.2016 It's been a while since I last drew Rikios.

This marks day 1. Not … Continue reading Progress diary: Rikios the Chirein, 5

N. WS. Jokela, more commonly known as WindySilver, is a Finnish programmer and a hobbyist artist fighting a war against procrastination on the losing side. When her free time is not taken up by things like reading, procrastination, video games, watching series or more procrastination, she mainly writes sci-fi fanfiction and original flash fiction of various genres. While she dabbles in a lot of things ranging from digital art to jewelry to plants to whatever catches her interest, writing is her persistent forte.
You should not give her yet another crazy flash fiction challenge to take part in because she simply cannot say "no" to it.

Saturday, 21.5.2016 About half an hour of drawing as I waited for Iwisoft Free Video Converter to finish converting my recordings so that I could begin playing SWTOR (Star Wars: The Old Republic), since I really don't think my laptop's cooler could handle them both at the same time. What do you think? Is it … Continue reading Progress diary: Rikios the Chirein, 4

Sunday, 15.5.2016 Alongside fighting with a slow internet connection as I am downloading Star Wars: The Old Republic on my laptop (it's kriffing huge) I decided to continue the scales. I hoped that it would help my nerves. At this point, as I was talking with my boyfriend on Whatsapp, I asked some feedback from … Continue reading Progress diary: Rikios the Chirein, 3

Wednesday, 11.5.2016 Ok, I am back home from my school trip. I am tired (it was a long day), but I decided to see if drawing more scales would help me feel at least a bit better; I've noticed that my thoughts become very negative when I am tired. I've gotten so far, that for … Continue reading Progress diary: Rikios the Chirein, 2

Tuesday, 10.5.2016 The pictures of this day were taken with my phone camera, hence the bad quality. I apologize for that. I finally managed to get myself to start drawing the scales.

Course 1, Diary 12: Design a vehicle Part 2
29.10.2015–30.10.2015 On Thursday I returned to strengthening the lines with my pen.
