Attempt at Sculpting a Fox Head

When I got back here for the winter break, Ryan and I received our copy of a book about the making of the movie 'The Fantastic Mr. Fox.' I LOVE this book! Flipping through it I felt so inspired that I took out some sculpy and started sculpting a fox head. Unfortunately it looks like just about every other feline/canine/rodent out there except for a fox, but its' a good first try. Its' been fired and I planned to paint it but we'll see.

Comics and Scanners and Christmas, Oh My!

Guess who got an A3 Mustek scanner?


ME!!! 8D

I had a pile of things to scan that are too big for my A4 Canon scanner so I've been having a ball figuring everything out. But now I have the wrinkles ironed out and lots of things scanned, including my 'Run Ramla Run' comic I did over the summer. In fact I'd like to add more to it now :P Go figure, I love making more work for myself. Here are my projects I've scanned for your enjoyment!

Run Ramla Run: A Scion Hero Fan Comic
I actually lost the script that I wrote with this so I had to improvise all the dialogue after scanning it. I think its' all right, at least for now.

















Kale Comic Concept Art

I've been drawing a lot of Kale stuff lately, mostly fleshing out characters and trying to draw them all consistently. I even did a hight chart but I may have to do it again, but smaller.

As for the Kale comic itself, I redid page one and will probably end up making another page after it (so splitting what was on page one into two pages) and then continuing on the story. I have lot of perspective coming up so I need to get back into the groove of perspective grids. Drawing the grid correctly is the hardest part for me but other than that its' easy to use.

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas today (for those who celebrate it). Otherwise I hope everyone is staying safe and warm. We're supposed to get freezing rain today so our two feet of snow outside will freeze to solid ice. Nice.

Kale Comic Concept Art

Since I only really have one final to study for I decided to vent some frustration (nothing serious) by drawing some concept art for my Kale comic. I will be working on pages over the holiday break. I'm hoping to get a good chunk of it done over the break. When I print the book I'd also like to throw in mini illustrations and concept art in the back so you might see these again in a year :P


Here we have Evander the bard rocking out with his guitar/mandolin hybrid instrument. BARDIC POWAH! I just love the concept of casting spells with music. At the bottom we have Theolin, Alencia's undead cat. He sheds a lot :<


Here is Alencia doing her medium thing with some ghost orbs and shadow people. I'd like to do a painted/ink-wash version of this later. I really like the vertical composition.

I also have a turn-around of Kale but its' bigger than my scanner so once I get my bigger scanner (Christmas time!) then I'll scan it, and those Scion comic pages from the summer. It'll be such a relief to be able to scan everything! :D

Painting Completed!

Last night I finished my Final Oil painting for my painting class! YAY!





Also here are some of my favorite photos from my photography final project:

Holidays are coming!

This year's christmas card:

Now to get it printed, get the cards put together, get envelopes that will fit them, and send them out :P

I also finished my painting final today so I'll take nice photos of it tomorrow and post it to DA too. I'll also be mounting my photography final tomorrow and studying for Sociology. All is going well so far! :D

Big Brown Sketch Book

Sketch Book Tiems!


Rip Van Wrinkle sketch, via Hellsing.


Life drawings. My friend's TV (missing buttons and cables) and her Canson camera. My fox plushy "Jacques" and my last can of Mountain Dew :(


My fiance' Ryan's characters Clayton and Misaki, of Clayton Chronicles. I still have trouble drawing Clayton but at least Misaki and her kimono came out nicely.


Some clothing studies of people while I was waiting for my next class at Shafer. My second class was canceled but I didn't know until I got there so I had two hours to kill until my painting class. (these only took about 10 minutes to do) I was lugging around a bag of supplies and a three foot tall painting around so it was nice to let it sit for a bit.


Some heads of Alex, another character of my fiance'. A doodle of Bayonetta shooting kittens out of her heels (inside joke with some friends), and some 'Or Maybe Not' sketches for the new zombie story arch I hope to work on soon. Having some fun with the red pen :P


A lulzy doodle of my Werewolf: Apocalypse character, Luana, scolding Perry (a freind's Fianna) who she finds sleeping on her door step. Really I just wanted to draw her little muffin top hips and tattoos. So cute. I think I should have given Perry actual eyes :P
