Sketches this Week

I'm in a hurry. Last one is a work in progress, I'm dreading the tiles so it might end up like a small pool of water, go lack of confidence, go. I think she is singing... I also think she might be able to see the future. Hey, all of these are chicks... I don't know how that happened.






PS- I'm going in for an animation test this weekend coming... wish me luck. =D

Sketches this Week

Slightly late.

I had a birthday to attend on the weekend and that meant a lot of travel time. As a bonus, I drew while on the train. That would explain how disjointed the images were. Since the train was in motion, I couldn't see anything for more than a couple seconds and most of what I could see was tops of roofs soooo there ya go, pipes and metal things on roofs. Other things are digital work. One I forgot from last week and the other I just really like that jacket. Designed it myself, I dunno about the colours though... but it reminds me of Dune. =D

Sketches this Week

Okay, they aren't all from this week, but they are still never before posted. My poor Deviant art is neglected...

For a while there I was going to the local coffee shop and sketching what I saw outside the window or off the terrace. It was nice. Yes, I still have that green sketchbook A-2 gave me, I never seem to be able to keep stuff to one book or even to a book. Usually I'll just grab what's around and draw on that. I don't mind though, the sketches are mine and it's not like I have to format or display them. The one with colour was just me trying to get back to doing something in colour, I have been doing a lot of rough sketches then leaving them. A lot. Ummm, the creature in dark red/pink, that was from when I came home this week and felt very frustrated so I whipped her up. Just played around with the shading today, but I hope to finish it and focus on values so there shouldn't be any colour. Colour seems to distract me a lot so I've decided I should think more about light and value. Perhaps I'll get off my lazy butt and do more finished work. Oh, forgot, the tree trunk. I did that yesterday because I realized I had no idea exactly how to draw bark or trees as they enter the grass. It turned out better than I expected.







On a completely different note, the other day I ran into a fantastic blog by the wondrous James Gurney. I suggest you all check it out. He seems to update his blog every day, which blows my mind. It's nicely set up and talks about a variety of different things, which is fun. It made me realize how lacking in interest my blog is, but hey, I do what I can; I'm not gonna compete with his organizational skills.

See ya next week!

Haha weekend, what?

Ya, totally missed last weekend as far as posting what I've been drawing. Aw well, still been working on animating so I haven't done much.
Just punched this out before bedtime. Took somewhere between forty minutes to an hour. Made me feel so much better though since I haven't coloured anything in.... weeks. Eck.


It's incomplete, but like I said, I just had to do SOMETHING. Hopefully better things to come this weekend.

Later!
