Now I will show what I have been working on the past month..
Some picture I was working on the day before I left college. Was trying coloring and lighting mainly on hair. It was also trying to paint a female in sort of military ware, with a bit of a short cut. But it kind of failed.
Part of my Urban Soul Disease batch, continues down. This is probably the last of my focus on it, where my focus switched to Child Salsa. Here, though, is Sean, another drawing. Done probably after McNamara's drawing. Now he just looks sorta.. hmm, he's 16, but doesn't look quite that old here. Still, it turned out ok ^^
This is the third character in USD, cough McNamara. Like Zachariah McNamara, Rian for short. He's a very serious character, both the main character and the antagonist. I tried very hard to line up the face well on both views.
And a lineup I prepared. Yeah, when it's put into perspective, I suppose they can't be that different xD Though, I'd like Sean to be a little shorter if possible. I also realize Sean looks a bit like a younger Rian, which, don't know if I can use that. Rian was drawn/painted in a new way that works faster for me (and bypasses the whole it's-too-hard-to-line thing)
Jamie I attempted in this style. Turned out like crap, but I started to cement how I would draw him. And, I drew him in a bow legged girl pose, so I enjoyed that.
I started drawing the first bit of USD which is when Sean pushes his dad's car into a shop. It takes place in South Dakota like I said, so it's sort of arid sometimes. Anyway, I guess I decided this story delves into my psyche too much, so I took a quitbreak and worked on the comic I said I would never lay hands again on.
A pale slave boy painted in a way that reminds me of Landy paintings. Sorry, don't take offense, it just happens sometimes.
Thylacosmilus, the marsupial saber tooth, I find marsupials really interesting, and this is no exception. Despite looking familiar, it's morphology is really different. The jaw has big bony protrusions that stretch downward to sheath the teeth that anchor way up into the center of the head. And also, it has 5 toes. The illustration of it in the book I rented was a really sad, sloppy creature. I tried to flesh the skeleton in a way that is both realistic and had vitality like a real animal. The positioning of the legs is unfinished, so it looks wonky.
A strange snakeboy, not a lot to say about this haha. It's creepy
Did this yesterday, a few differences in background which was bothering me. It's a doberman of sorts, started as a quickpaint but quickly went out of hand xD It's one of those mindless paints. Maybe I am too old to be doing portraits like this. Somehow it needs to be more interesting, it resembles my old crap too much. Though it was easy since it was a break into my known world, it was also a bit boring.
All in all, this is goes from May 6-May 25. Also in the past week, I've been soiling about 10 pages of copy paper a day on real world sketch work, 15 if I'm uber productive. My room is a mess of clothes, boxes, college stuff and paper. I don't have work, but I'm filling my days with projects. One thing, if I finish it, I really want to show it ^-^
Oh, and by the way, this is a remake of a comic I did a few years ago. TBSOW. I completed it in february. I wasn't going to tell anyone until it was reasonably far along, but now that I have sufficiently lost interest I feel it's time to throw it out there. Finished for now, haha!
