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!

Wheeeewwww!

It's been quite a while since I've updated this place... I really wish I had more time to throw stuff up here, but between college deadlines and lots of distractions it's been rather difficult to say the least. A lot has happened since the last update, some good and some bad, but hey it could always be worse!

Most of college is over, so I get a lot more time to doodle whatever I want! However, I've set myself somewhat of a summer project animation-wise. I won't tell you too much about it at this stage, seeing as the idea itself is only two days or so old, but it is based around the popular game Team Fortress 2. I recently bought myself a copy off steam, soooo very addicting! Not to mention inspiring hehehe...
So a lot of this art is TF2 based. Now, I have drawn a lot more than this...I just don't want to spam you too much with stuff that really sucks. Plus most of it is in my sketchbook and my scanner STILL hates me.

I hope distractions don't get to me too much... I do love CoD:MW2 and TF2 but I REALLY wanna make sure I improve my art this summer. Especially with people's faces and body structure! I wanna be able to style it all like crazy.

Ughhrrrr... Sorry!

College ate my soul again! I apologise for my lack of updates. It's been so long since I've updated this place. Been filling up my sketchbook diaries for college and my own of course, instead.Got a couple of doodles to throw up so hopefully that will make up for it. I even have a traditional piece to show you all, lucky duckies? I dunno, I kinda suck with the inks and water colours and things... Oh well, hope you like them none the less! Quite a few cartoons and game arts here... Some Courage the cowardly dog characters. I do miss that show.

Some Metal gear solid works too! Including what I can only assume is a caricature of a young Revolver Ocelot. It kinda scares me. Especially his eyes!
Also some Ape Escape. Yes yes. Much banter and all that jazz.

There is blood on a picture further down, just to warn you.

How time does fly!

It really does! I never get the chance to update here much anymore, which is a shame because I do like to record my thoughts... Ah well, I do have that sketch diary in the works, have had it since I started college way back hehe. Maybe I'll scan a couple of pages in one day when I get a hold of a scanner that's of decent quality! but until then you'll have to wait I guess.

Got a lot of college work to do this semester, and I'm finding it hard to keep on top of it but I'm coping. I want to get my design work done quickly this time around, so I have plenty of time for the animation and don't have to let the sound quality let it down. I've got the character designs down, and some possible background area ideas, so I guess that's helpful enough. Got an essay due on Tuesday, not so hot about that one though... Wasn't sure how to start it off, let alone give it a middle and an end! But I guess time will tell if that was a good attempt or not.

Been working on drawing realism. Perhaps I'll throw up some of my sketches, criticisms would be welcomed and much appreciated. Hope all is good on your end guys. Have a good one!

New semester!

That's right people, it's just over the horizon and I'm STILL lagging behind on my work. I need to redo my brief, complete all of my 8 images and then add the sounds to my animation. I have the rest of today and tomorrow to do this. Thankfully I'm close to completion of the 8, and the sounds will not take me too long to do if Flash decides to cooperate. And briefs are simple too so I should be up and runin' by Tuesday! I'm lucky I finished off my art study for my tutor by the first deadline or I'd be in so much trouble right now.

I have artwork for this upload, but I've been rather distressed with the doodling recently... I haven't drawn anything in days and it's starting to get me a little frustrated. I feel like the bird down there!

Anyway, hope you're all keeping well! Until the next update, toodles!
