Color test.

Quick color test for a character in one of my projects. He turned out too bright. I think I'll try blue and purple next.

The claaawwwww.

Duc won me these two things from the claw game at Norm's. I got him another ugly plush (unfortunately not pictured) in return. We would have won more but the machine cheated us.
Here is an ugly picture of the kinda ugly plushes.

I found Waldo!

I found Waldo at the Spectrum yesterday! This was just before I watched Sucker Punch. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

On Friday, my school brought in a kangaroo and serval for the students to look at and draw.

It was pretty damn adorable. It was a cool way to start my Animal Drawing class.

I have been reading a lot lately. I finished reading The Wise Man's Fear, Watership Down, and The Magicians in the past week. The Wise Man's Fear was rather disappointing. The first book had much better pacing and storytelling. Watership Down was even more depressing than I remembered it to be. The Magicians was surprisingly a fun read despite it being way too much like Harry Potter and Narnia.

I am frantically trying to figure out how to finish all my final projects. :/ I have 3 classes where the final project is worth everything. Sighhh...

Time to start and finish my jump animation!

Munny Day at ASW.

Gemma and I bought and painted Munnies at the ASW event today. They had free paint and refreshments set up at Catalyst.

This is my Munny. I intended to make a superhero of some sort. I ended up with a weird gruesome looking zombie instead. D:


I'm going to fix this up over a weekend someday.

Fall art #2!

Old artwork from my figure drawing class.

These first two are done from short poses.


This is an unfinished one of a 3 hour pose.

Fall art #1

Just some stuff from my Drawing 1 class last semester.






This was my final project that I really should have spent more time on. :[ Finals week was a bad time to get sick.

I no longer hate using charcoal. Thanks Jeff. :]

Arty Gras!

Things from Art Gras at ASW last weekend! I had a lot of fun doing art outside of school projects for once.


I painted a square for some collaborative project. People were invited to paint a cardboard square which was glued to a piece of canvas. I left early so I didn't get to see the completed projected with all the squares glued on. I wish I had taken a better picture of this. I used a lot of colors to paint with (which don't show up so great using my cellphone camera).


Duct tape wallet. This was so stressful to make. Duct tape and scissors are not the greatest materials to work with. I'm about 90% done with it. Not sure what to do with the cover at the moment.


Inside of the duct tape wallet. The green is a better shade in real life.

The next three are from dropping paint on canvas squares spinning super fast. I think they turned out neat. I like the last one the most.

A work in progress.

A rough scan of my work in progress for Visual Storytelling. This particular assignment was to create a tear sheet of characters and environments from my story. I'll update with my inked version when I get a chance to touch it up a bit. I'll probably add some color this weekend.

So many projects to do and so little time. :[ The next few weeks are going to be rough for sure. I really should have done more homework over spring break.

Oh yeah, I have other things I should update the blog with. Hm, now where's my camera...

Coyote Part II.

This is what Sunday nights are all about.

I'm going to fix the tongue during spring break.

Midterms?

Well this has been a most unproductive weekend. Hanging out with friends, Tactics Ogre, Star BBQ, and Pokemon...

It's gonna be a rough night tonight! :[

Will update in whenever I get around to finishing it all. Booooooo.

Rough Coyote head turn.

This is a super rough pencil test of my in progress Coyote* head turn. I only used maybe 10 frames for this and the timing/spacing is a little off. I'll post again later with a much more complete version. Coyote doesn't have ears, fur, or a tongue for this project. Stay in tune for more next week!


*I do not own this character. Please don't sue me Warner Bros. >___<

The internet is real.

Blows my mind every time I meet someone I know from the internet.

Pretty fun night tonight. In related news, I am as far away from finishing my homework as ever. :[

Old Maya project.

A post of one of my old Maya projects since I'm too lazy to scan in new content.

Behind!

I am so behind on animation homework. Critical Reasoning has laid claim to my free hours tonight but tomorrow's going to be a productive day. I swear it.

I had an embarrassing encounter with the lab tech people yesterday. It's all your fault Sam. >:/

Project part 1.

The start of a new project. Honda wanted to do an encyclopedia of her friends. I am just going to do the same thing but with less effort. These are some of the guys I know from LCAD. I drew mostly from memory and Honda's helpful(?) descriptions. This proved to be much harder than I expected it to be. None of these really look like who they are supposed to be. :[
Maybe I should draw these out on paper...
