Not another art dump?!
IT'S THE LAST WEEEEEEEEEK OF TERM OMG. I'm so ready for the break! ;_; And we pretty much have the whole two weeks this time, except for one makeup on Monday, but I can deal with that. YAYZORS. (I really wish that WDW trip had worked out, though. D:)
On Sunday John subbed our character design class, and he brought in a model for us to do figure drawing. OH MAN, JUST WHAT I NEEDED. I really have no clue why I'm such a lazy ass and don't force myself to draw from life more often, particularly using John's methods (his methods being sending a big FU to rigid anatomy and just making an interesting drawing), because every time I do it I feel like I've loosened up all this artistic tension and still learned something new.
So have a crapload of stuff I did for that Sunday (and it's all the same model, FYI).
Model dressed up as Dorothy from Wizard of Oz, except with glasses. Sometimes I forgot the glasses.
Also, NOTE TO SELF: BUY NEW INKING PENS.
And some more of that. Gaah, I love ballpoint pens sometimes.
Something more anime-cartoonish, I guess. Plus a kittything.
Scientists aren't sure what this represents.
...Actually, someone pointed out that it looked like Thing 1 or Thing 2 from Cat in the Hat, and NOW I CAN'T UNSEE IT. D: Before it was just a thing, now it's a Thing! Nuuuuuuuu
Colored pencil sketchies. Other note to self: bug little brother about never returning my sharpener. :/
And finally, I was looking at some other interesting picture (John always passes around his hugearse notebook full of Other Art for us to reference from) and took to drawing animals and stuff inside the model. So! Lots of those.
YES, IT'S PHOENIX WRIGHT.
After all that life-drawing, I suddenly got an intense urge to draw realism. I almost never attempt realism or photo-realism because I feel like I suck at it, and/or I'm lazy. But dammit, I refuse to be limited by "my style!" XO And there's no better place to practice realism than on a fictional lawyer who cross-examines parrots, ventriloquists and dead people, I say. :Db
Also, for reference I was looking at a photo of Joaquin Phoenix (ironically enough). Any resemblance is pretty much duh.
Gonna crosspost all of this to dA, so be warned. /o/
Of course, there's a new Lunargyros page today. Yikes, gotta catch up, I'm behind...
Drawing: But first, I've got to finish up character design and digital painting homework, since it's the LAST ASSIGNMENTS. o_o Doin' that most of the day today, then tomorrow, turtles and sharks...
Writing: Stuff here and there.
