Marker practice!

So, yep, like the title say; practicing with my markers. nothing too serious, but I still felt like updating this thing.
Decided to draw Maxi again, but this time in the new style I'm currently trying out. I think I like it a lot.


So, this is how it turned out. Not THAT bad, but, then again, I really need to learn how to shade bodies better, ahahaha. I used to refs for this one, hence the fuglyness, I suppose, hehe.
Please ignore the "I'm going crazy here"-purple, I was bored. XD
Used only warm grey tones on him, since I don't have any decent skin tone markers yet, sadly. I need to order those, but that'll have to wait. Nooo! :P

Wtf? Two days in a row!?

YEAH YOU HEARD ME, TWO DAYS IN A ROW.





Found this sketch among some of my papers in the drawer beneath my bed, hehe. It's a few months old, I think I drew it back in.. September? October, maybe.
Anyway
Decided to redraw it, since I realised I had a character fitting for this guy, and wanted to upload it as a comparison to the new sketch, which can be found HERE.

Stress Relief

Yeah, decided to post just because I wanted to do something different from working on my school project (which is due tomorrow, ahahaha).

It's butt ugly and I spent like 3 mins on it, but it worked as a stress relief, so I'll just post anyway. Besides, it's the first drawing of Melvin for YEARS! GUUH.




There ya goooo! Wooh?

I'M ALIVE!

Wohoo! It's... been a while, eh? XD Sorry about that!

A few days ago, I sat down, after not having drawn for three weeks or so, and tried drawing profiles. This is the first try - and, no, I don't like it at all!



I gave up on it and tried again, and then it all worked out! I scanned the new profile, colored it real quick and put it up on dA right here.

And... that's pretty much it for now, sorry! XD

Long time, no see

Yeah, sorry for no updates, but I've been HORRIBLY busy - plus, I didn't have any new sketches to post up until now. Not that they are scanned yet, but they'll be so soon. I hope.
I FINALLY got a few days off, haha. Chilling.. that's what I needed.

Anyway, see ya guys around!

Watercolor practice!

We were practicing with watercolors and brushes in school yesterday, which was really, really fun! I love working with brushes - it's a shame I don't use that sort of stuff more often. :/ But, anyway! I decided to post two (of four) watercolor sketches/excercises I did!
It was really interesting to create them, even if they didn't take particularly long to make; we all had to draw/paint abstract drawings and in them depict the four feelings Anger, Sorrow, Happiness and Worry. Why? To see how everybody used -sort of- the same colors and shapes for all the four feelings - which was totally awesome to see! Anger all had various reds in it, as well as lots of really sharp objects/lines in it (think; a zapping lightning!), while Sorrow had lots of blues in it and had tear/raindrops in it. Happiness had, as you might guess, lots of pink in it and swirling, "happy" brushstrokes in it. Worry, on the other hand, was pretty hard to define, but most of the drawings contained a streak of purple and a lot of other colors mixed together in what seemed like unsettling brushstrokes; as if someone was completely stressed out when drawing them.





So! Here's my Anger! I'm not that fond of it, but I kinda like it anyway, haha. Lots of reds, and sort of "explosions" of yellow inbetween. It was fun to make, but.. yeah, like I said, it could've looked better. XD But oh well! I think it looks kinda cool, colorwise.





And this is my Sorrow! I like this one a lot better. Lots of lovely blues in it, forming... I don't know what it's forming, haha. But I kept thinking about how Sorrow really breaks into you, spreading inside your body, almost poluting it for a while, before everything gets better. (Weird explanation, I know, but it was fun!)






And that's it for today! :3

And finally...

...I upload what I said I'd upload; the portraits of the new characters! Sadly, they're only two right now. More to come though, so no worries!

First out is Scott, a blonde little whirlwind, haha. (That's pretty lame, I know, hahaha!) I'd write more about his personality, but I'm still working on that. Besides, I don't want to give out too much info before I've completed some kind of Character Profile for all of the guys. ;)
A Character Profile... Hmmm. Now that sounds like a good idea. Haha. I should probably finish designing the dudes before I start on that one though! Oh well. XD



Well, this is Joseph. I'm not sure why, but I really like his face. A lot. He looks calm and silently confident. At least to me he does.
Not too much to say about him either... yet. Haha.





Anyway! Working on the characters, yes. I already have the first scene of the comic drawn out in my head. Well, more or less anyway. I think it'll be awesome~

No new sketches today!

Nope, no new sketches today. I've been too busy with homework to work on any personal projects. Well, too busy to sketch anything out, at least! Besides homeowrk, I've been forcing myself to work on an art trade, so.. yep.
But I have been planning and plotting my own comic! I have the main storyline written down as well as the outlines for the five main characters (I call them all main characters, but the story will really only be about two of them). I won't talk too much about that right now though. I want to plan it out a bit more before telling all the details. Not that there are that many of them right now, haha, but still!

So, yeah, no sketches today!

Henry and his damn Train!

Yeah, so I decided to post the finished drawing of Henry on Deviantart instead of on here.

Here's the link! Read the description, okay!? XD




EDIT: I decided to scan in and post another sketch, this time of a new Original Character; Adrian! :D I'm too braindead to tell you more about him though. xD;

MOAR sketches!

So.. I promised a girl I know that I'd upload the finished version of the stuff in the entry below once it was... finished. Haha. I took it to school to show to my teacher and then used some spare time after school to use the A3 scanner they have there to scan the finished piece of lawl in. Then, I tried to send it to my usual e-mail so that I could put it up here, but.. something apparently went wrong when the damn e-mail server tried to send my e-mail with the drawing attached, because the e-mail got here, but not with drawing. Weird. (Yes, I did check that it was in the damn e-mail before I sent it! xD)
So, I'll try to get it with me home tomorrow instead and today I'll just post some random crap I doodle while in class.



So, this is Henry - the same guy as in the entry below, only now he's older (and slightly deformed, LOL 8D). He turned out rather ugly, but I wasn't really aiming to do something pretty either, haha. I just wanted to doodle since the teacher was like "blah, blah, blah" about uninteresting things. (He has a tendency to go on and on about things which don't have anything to do with his lecture.)




And this is a... cat? Cat-squirrel-thing? I'm not entirely sure, but I think it's a cat. It's not very pretty, but, like I said before - IT'S A DOODLE. Yep. DOODLE.

Gaaaah, I have sooo many good ideas that I wanna do something with, but I can't, cause school is totally eating me alive here, haha! Or, well, maybe not, but we always have something to do, so I feel bad whenever I take up a pen and start with something that is NOT called "homework".
