Brilleland Competition feat. cute girls in glasses.

Brilleland, a Norwegian optician chain, is having a competition for designing glasses cases as a 30th anniversary celebration. Since I wear glasses like a champion every day and want a new case (and glasses...!), I thought: Finally an opportunity to get off my bum and do a pattern! I have been itching to figure out how to make "element" patterns is PS since Christmas, but couldn't really be bothered to scratch that itch until now.

You can vote for it here!

Tada!
4 different colors.

Seamless!

+ I did a mock-up since I am a huge dork 8^)
The idea behind the pattern is: Norwegian nature + cute girls + glasses + strawberries. I looked at a lot of cute 70s outfits for this one!

Please vote for me if you like it!

Fan Friday: Bravely Default

Color practice of Edea Lee from Bravely Default (3DS). I played and finished this game last year and it remains one of my favorites! It was a pretty fun drawing to do + She's wearing the outfit of my favorite job: Spell Fencer!

Some digital sketches... trying out new coloring stuff.
I am uncertain if any of them works, but they are pretty fun to do + GIRLS, GIRLS EVERYWHERE. Can you tell I am excited about summer??

Thanks for looking!

Joy!
I got a new laptop from my new workplace that I started working for 2 months ago! (Double Hurray! + Also one of the reasons I've been MIA lately.) It's pretty neat to go from working in a noisy environment to complete silence- I didn't even know how bad it was until now...! Here are some digital stuff :^)

+ Bonus:
This is pretty dumb, but I finally finished a sweater I was working on and I am kinda proud since I think it's the most perfect thing ever!

I don't really knit, but it's something nice to do when I'm visiting home and hanging out with my mom. She's an incredible knitter and helps me out when I'm stuck so I get the knitting-zen feeling without any of the frustration... it's the best!

Thanks for looking!

Easter!

God Påske!

This easter I sent the bf off to Lofoten to go down-hill skiing and, since I don't own skis, I was perfectly happy to spend my easter with my mom and cat in the city. :^)

There was grandiose plans about working on projects this holiday, but most was spent cuddling the cat, playing board games with friends and hanging out! Ah well! It was relaxing and nice, so I won't complain!

Project update: 31 Day Sketchbook

My sketchbook project that I wrote a little bit about here is trucking along. I'm not too sure about the page layout. Hopefully there will be some good feedback once I send it off to review and I can do some editing!

...and I have started mocking up the cover.
So exciting! :^D

Some digital sketches!

These are actually from 2014...! I'm having trouble with the noise levels of my PC fan... it's pretty ridiculous, but I have actually contemplated buying noise canceling headgear. After intense googling about the subject there is apparently nothing I can do. :^(
