yeah, tired




Lookies


Looks I drewz a bishie
Not really. I tried to draw a "pretty boy". I don't think the guys I usually draw are really that manly, but I've been told so (hey ask k-pop and anime land how they like their boys), so I decided to do something different. It's based off my gaia avatar, which ironically enough, is on a female base because I can't be bothered to change it.
Umm yeah...one down, 3-ish projects to go.

oh before I go, there's a char concept sketch. She's changed so many times, I think I need to ditch the hair colour just to suit. hmmmmm
space samurai anyone?
err...sorry Debs. I didn't do homework at all again.

I'm not whinging!

Tell that to Mr. Fife hahaa
I ranted about it to Jo and Debs today, so I'm pretty sure they're not gonna appreciate me *complaining* about it.
Late last year when I picked up art seriously again, my goal was to get my backgrounds and colouring really up to standard. I think I forgot and went a bit beyond. I getting more confident, and I developed a technique that allowed me to paint fast, jumping from rough sketch to colour...because I merged the two in the early stages...scribble and blobs indicated figure instead of lines.
Now that's cool if you're photo-referencing closely (where I picked it up from) or if you actually have any trace of a rough sketch/lineart beforehand...but for the sake of speed, accuracy was lost (I hate how maths gets into art, "don't skip steps" my maths teacher says)







Time to take a break from it all I guess. What annoys me the most is because I know what I'm doing wrong, and how to fix it. I'm half-expecting my old art teacher John to leap out of the closet to say "I told you!" I realised this formally when I got a kind nudge from another artist...hahaha. I was so pleased with the picture, I posted it straight away, only to return half an hour later ready to tear my hair out...in such a short time, I could already point out the mistakes clearly. The (editted) picture is at the bottom.

More studies for me.Even back to drawing fruit if I have to. And actually doing lineart, which I haven't done properly in almost two years. It's the last picture of this phase (hopefully). hehe

too much to do :(

My internet is back.
I have to study for maths and science
back I seriously have to catch up on all my blogger updates. (why now??It was hardly updating while the internet was fine? Dx)

30 mins later: Trawled through all of them, and saved awesome photos.

Inspiration of the month. This awesome guy (his latest works in particular tho)

uhhh...what's coming? I'm planning to challenge myself. I still have one old project to finish, and two to start. A male portrait cause I'm still bad at it and another attempt at a combat scene? And inevitably, if I want to make characters, I need reference sheets for all 5 of them. I noticed how I kept changing the appearance when I had to fish out some pictures for a gaia commissioner.

And then there's school life to deal with too. Ahhh...my brain is not going to cope.

don't look at my last post. it's ugly. will delete when I figure how or have time /crawls into a ball/

bye for now.
