College work, uni applications and all that junk.

Been ages since I've updated this blog... Been busy with college projects and building my portfolio, so I can guarantee that I haven't stopped drawing at all, which is always a plus right?

It's been pretty hectic these past few months, worrying about which university to apply to... What work needs to be done for what date and the whole "try to improve your art skills" thing. Then again thats a constant goal for an artsist isn't it?

But to be fair, I have also been busy...Ehh...Playing video games. Yes. That means busy. It gave me inspiration to draw so no complaints from me! It's fun AND inspiring, and because it's drawing it's double the fun! Even better. :D

I have been meaning to post some life drawing over here for a looooong time now, and I actually do have some stuff to throw up here for those who still check back here! Prepare to be blinded by my horrible attempts at anatomy!
I will try and post the rest at a later date, once my portfolios have been sent around to the Universities I have applied to.

Hope you've all been keeping well! I gotta get back to working on these deadline hehe.

Toodles!

Phew! Semester 1 is over!

Semester 1 of my HNC is finally over. It felt like it took such long time, especially after the last week or so. I've had so many technical difficulties that I've started to hate the college computers with a passion... Also the printers. They always want to break when I need to use them, or so it seems. I lost most of my work within the last few days we had left to work on it, but managed to pull out something to show.

Tomorrow I get to find out if I've passed and if I have made the cut for the 2nd semester. I really hope I have, because I really tried my best this time. I don't want to sound like I'm making excuses but... It's been a really tough year. Losing my gran made me think a lot about what I've been doing, how I am as a person and what I need to change about me. It took me such a long time to think it through and to be honest, I think I still am. I know I sure as Hell cry about it still. Thats for another time I suppose, though.

I haven't been drawing much on the computer, but I have a few old doodles I can throw at you all. Hope you're keeping well!
Time to find out if I'm in the clear. Tomorrow will be the make or break of it! Good night guys.

It's been a while...

It's been a long time since I posted here...But a lot has been going on for me, so I had little energy to come here and post things. Life went pretty down hill after my birthday, as my gran who had been ill for quite some time passed away...
I don't have much to report other than that... I've been feeling a bit better lately, and I've doodled a little for you all to see! I need to get back to doing my college work however. I hope you're all keeping well since my disappearance. Have a good day!

Unpleasant...

Not much to say this time round. Been having quite a rough patch with things I would rather keep to myself.

On Friday the 30Th of January a friend of the family passed away. She took care of me when I was smaller, and I would never be as persistent or stubborn as I am today without her. Peggy, rest in peace. We will all greatly miss you.

Hubbub.

Not much really going on right now apart from college work and the coy playing of games every now and then. I do admit I haven't really been able to post much up in the way of art up here and I do apologise for this. However, this doesn't mean I haven't been drawing! Quite the opposite I assure you. Most of my drawings recently have been done on paper in various sketch books. Mostly for college work but definitely beneficial to me, that's for sure. We recently did movement studies in my art class, though it was with a partner and consisted of five minute sketches, a slight movement and then drawing over the image with the movement on top. It's hard to explain, but it's like drawing frames in flash with the onion layer on, except you're going from light colours to darker ones. I decided to do a few practice runs with a more cartoony twist to it as you can see below.

Also managed to throw together a coloured work for you all, rare for me but it's becoming more common... Thankfully!

The lovable Foster's cast. Not all unfortunately, I ran out of space to add in anymore.

Don't like this drawing at all. Guh. Need to work on drawing fire.

Was listening to the Art Grounds radio while doodling these up. The user Percy was playing a bunch of songs and I tried to draw along to each one. It's really hard to keep up, especially on short songs but it really is a fun thing to do hehe!

Dunno about this one really. I did it a lot earlier in the week and I don't recall what was going through my cranium at that moment. Let's just say I was practicing a walking forward pose?

That's all for now guys, have a good day!

Progress report!

I trust you all had a great Halloween? I know I did. The Wrath of the Spider Queen FINALLY aired here after a buhmillion years of waiting, needless to say I was not disappointed! It was fantastic. A great episode.
I've handed in my Work book for my NQ Digital Design class today, got the green light for heading in the right direction which is a relief. Major weight off my shoulders, and it means I can start on my final products for Digital imaging and my other 8 images I need to do. The sooner I get this done, the longer I'll have to work on my animation that's due sometime in January. All is well on that front, at least for a little while hehe.

And now because there isn't much else in the ways of updates, I shall spam you with random digital doodles. First up is some fan art I've done for Josh Lieberman of Manny & Khan. I gotta say I loved doing this one, the characters are a real treat to draw! Even though I have a strange feeling they're out of character... Oh well, hope he likes it.

Next up is just a 10 second doodle of a bunny. Randomly 'hopped' out of my head, hehe.

Some good ol' Storm Hawks fanart, even though I haven't seen it in so long I still love drawing the style. This is a little Merb character I designed a while back, his name is Bird Flu!

Random quickie of a bumble bee.

And now we're on to adding to the ever growing pile of Underfist drawings I have done. Trust me there are a LOT more than the ones I am uploading here, it's just all the others are in my sketchbooks and I don't have a scanner... So enjoy the sketches!

I haven't seen any fanart of Perkins floating around. He was so awesome in that special, I felt he needed some love.
