That illustration methods piece before I run away for turkey break

Note to self- CALL WACOM.

I feel I've definitely been ignoring creatures as of late and this was me guilt-tripping myself back into them the other day during Elect Illus class. Hamster deer? I think so.

Figure drawing. 6hrs so far.

I'm a midnight fist fight

Yep. Purple and pink angel. Gross I know but it'll be changing pretty drastically.

I'm an alligator!

I think titles are quickly winding down to random song lyrics.

After a 36 hour painting spree I don't have time to take a pic of the painting. Typical. I did spend my entire weekend working on my Illustration Methods "No Place Like Home" piece however and I actually like how it turned out. Granted there's a few spots I'd like to fix up but hopefully I'll get it back next week so I can share and fine-tune it.
In the meantime though, have some doodles.

Out of it.

Being out of it does not help one's artwork. At all. I think this headache/fever thing should go away so I can do more useful things than transferring drawings XD
Either way figured I'd throw out an update here as minor as it might be.

First off, fat horse.
Not bad horse. Fat horse. Big difference. Might I also mention at this point in time that whomever designed this monstrosity of an equine, they did a damn good job! Let me just say that if a horse could get this fat it probably would look pretty similar. Next up is alien planet no place like home something or other. It's easier if one doesn't ask.
Obviously still very much in progress and due on Monday. Joy.

Now I figure at some point in time here I should reveal some of the things that have been taking up a lot of my time that I really don't care about *cough*advertising*cough* However my last advertising project of this semester (for the solo class at any rate) looks like it might be pretty entertaining, so hopefully will get a couple of cool posts out of that.

Just throwin out a minor update here, a couple of random school stuff and a current project. First off, the mountains from that design for illustration project. I'm fairly amused with how it turned out.

I should've remembered to take pictures of my in progress Illustration Methods (alien planet) piece, but I didn't so I'm afraid anyone looking at this is stuck with my part II of electronic illustration homework. (head, meet desk/wall/other hard blunt object.)
Now on a good conscious I can't leave that last image with you as THE last image. So have some Opera. Just a fun screen shot of a fabulous Looney Toons episode. I'm sculpting the horse (and possibly bugs) for someone's xmas gift. I'm also doing other figures for other people but they might be looking at this blog every now and then so this is the only one I feel safe posting.

Now I need to run back to my apartment and get my clothes out of the dryer.

Neglected Projects

Guilt tripped myself into working on this guy more today- gonna be interesting seeing where this one ends up. I actually like it enough to definitely finish it but it's gonna take a while....

Writing.

After a walk last night I determined I want to create a graphic novel. My current idea on it is based off of a screenplay I'm writing for my screenwriting class. It follows a guy (steve) who's riding a bus. His thoughts, ideas and stereotypes begin to define the reality around him- making it a downward spiral into his subconscious. The graphic novel would be on a much broader spectrum following different individuals and include angels and the end of the world. Lots of fun stuff in one place. Current idea here:

Steve and similar individuals see things- these things are part of their own subconscious. Some force these on the normals world while others keep it to themselves and try to figure it out/make it stop. These subconscious projections are in part the fault of an angel(s) who got bored and “blessed” these individuals. Now other angels have to intervene as the end of the world is about to come around and these people are fucking up their plans.

Apologies they're just separate screenshots but didn't want to clog up a post with a ton of text.
