As of lately, I have been trying to practice a bit with clay. I am trying to get decent enough to make props for the doll show. Among the props, I want the dolls to play bizarre musical instruments. It seemed like a good idea at the time. Anyhow, while I am still in the planning stages, I can at least show you the progress of the music instrument anime drawings. This one is the slide whistle. A lot of kids like to play with this musical instrument. It works a bit like the Trombone. The modern slide whistle was...

This is one of a couple of nice anime drawing of mine. It is themed after a lovely musical instrument called Sheng. I like it cause it looks like a pipe. The maiden I drew wears a nice Mori type of dress. The red hair was also nice as well, with the cute green eyes. As for the instrument, it is a reed free instrument. It is one of the oldest Chinese musical instruments. It was made around 1100 BC. I like saying BC, cause I am not a big fan of changing something I am familiar with. I also...

After thinking a bit, I decided to show you a nice anime drawing of the Serpent. It is a bass wind instrument. It is pretty obvious why it is called a Serpent.

Considering all that occurred last week, I am glad things have regained a bit of normalcy. The biggest concern on our plate is the arrival of the new doll and the unwelcome guest in our couch. Needless to say, I will never sit in that same couch again without being like super paranoid. I do not want to go into details about the type of bug it was. Needless to say, I would have preferred a snake over that bug any day. Then again, I have a bit of a neutral stance with Reptiles. One New Years brother person tried...

This is another one of my silly musical instrument anime drawings. I have been working a lot in the new Scary Cat book. I am also working on Doll Theater. The Theater is fun around the edges. It helps kill the time and relieve stress. For the time being, I have been waiting for things to get a little better. I wish everyone in the world could get along for commerce to resume. This brings me back to my new anime drawing. It features a maiden playing the Pan Pipes or Flute. This instrument got featured a lot in a...
