Dedication

I told myself I was going to be posting something every Friday and I completely forgot about it until now. School has been very hectic in a sense and I'm just slowly running out of time. I just hope that I'll be able to finish the quarter with good grades and be able to take the biggest breather ever imaginable..

Let's see what I can dig up though. Oh found something!

Alright so I might not be a beast at backgrounds but I am working on it. I was just messing around in Photoshop when I ended up with this sketch....eventually I'll be good enough to post a finished background :)

Push myself

So I've been sitting down at some classes at school, specifically portfolio classes, and I have noticed that some people's demo reels are not the best out there. It seems that they just drew some nonsense in order to pass the class with no real thought behind their progress. It's a little bit disappointing and I'm working really hard to not be on the same boat. I have until the end of this year to finalize my things and I will do it! I will push myself (OOOOohh I said the title!!!) as much as I can and live at the school if that is what it takes to win "Best in Show" when I go to graduate.

In other news I am also working on posting sketches every Friday. If there is anything that someone would want to see me sketch then by all means let me know and I will get to it. I'm doing this to get better at drawing so the support is appreciated.

To start off here's my first sketch....well technically I colored it. Yes if I have the time I will attempt to color, even though I suck at it and just do flash coloring (woo flats...).

Turnaround turnaround I get around....

So here's another character for our group project. The character was designed by Christina Quintero, she just started her own blog so you can see her progress here, Christina Art Cafe, but the coloring of the turnaround was done by me. I likes it :)

Her eyes remind me of Dora...the explorer...

Happy Valentines Day...

Yeah that's what I should have said like....10 minutes ago but I forgot to wish it to everyone hehe. But anyways I also forgot to post some more action poses. This time for Baron.

Now we're just going deeper into finishing our pre-production project. I hope it turns out very well. Even though it's not like we're trying to win a prize, we are trying to be the best one out of the 4 groups. So I hope the work pays off.

Coolloorrr All the Way

These are the color concepts for both of the characters that I was assigned. Jane and Baron (I don't think these names will be changed. Once we gave it to them they just stuck...Oh well...)

Ah and the final choice for Jane has also been decided :)

Turnarounds

So I can't say I dislike turnarounds because I love that I get to see how my characters look from different angles. But when I have to show a certain part of them and it's not their "Good Side!" it drives me up a wall...
But anyways here's Jane and Baron's turnarounds.

Very simple coloring which I enjoyed. Baron's colors are decided but Jane might be changing.

 

Raizel Color Concepts

So I worked on some concepts for Raizel a while ago. I'm just not very strong when it comes to finishing/shading characters soooo bucket fill it is!!! Alright!

So far I believe number 2 was the winner. And yes this is from left to right. So yeah number 2!....or was it 1....Wait. Yeah it was number 1. You know what I don't remember. 

No I do remember...It was number 2 who got the most votes :)
And it helps that I had posted the chosen one some time ago here hehe....

Yeah I'm working on it....

So yeah it's been a couple of weeks since I've posted something but just when I thought I was on top of everything, projects wise, it has now started to pile up on me. So here's hoping I can get out of this with no worries about the quality of my work just dropping on me (which is my biggest worry)....

Here's Jane. The character I'm in charge of in all her poses.
The inking was done in Flash.
