More Gothel

This is how they spend sunday afternoons before Flynn came and screwed everything up.

More fanart since it's the weekend. Gotta love that Gothel, and her potential for untold melodrama. I told myself I'd do up coloured fanart sometime or another, so even though this is rougher than corrugated paper, I still came through. Back to muscle studies.. yay.

Happy new years!

Spent new years putting away some drinks with a few other somber friends. Anywho even if it's a day late, I wanted to make something to ring in 2011. It's Braniac 5 fanart, since everyone I know in Toronto seems super into dc at the moment I thought I'd draw a character I liked from the group. Took some liberties with his outfit >>

English over

Yea, so I'm almost done the term, which includes this mentally taxing English based elective course. As a last project I did up this digital painting from a scene in "the Story of An Hour". I had to describe the characterization of Louise Mallard, the protagonist, through graphic novel format. I'm not very fond of the story, but I still I wanted to do a good job on the picture. To that end I'd like to think I did what I set out to.

Red Mist

Me and some friends from school watched Kickass a few nights ago, and one of my senior buddies asked me for a drawing of Red Mist, an 'adorkable' antagonist from the film. So apparently after I gave it to her she coloured it, and just sent the finished version to me about 5 mins ago! So here's my first collab piece of the year, courtesy of the ever so awesome Leighanna Frostad, who's art can be seen here: http://infectedaxewound.blogspot.com/

PPL

A handful of the ppl I hang out with at school, including myself. If I'm up for it, I might do up another one with some more folks I like : >  I thought I'd try something new with this and I think it worked out pretty well. Hope you guys like it <3

included is: Chris Parks, Laura Sloan, Sasha Bobasha (can't spell her last name ehehe) Kim Luu, Al Jerek Torrijaz, Derek Ainsworth and the legs of Steven Tobiasz, all of whom have fantastic blogs that can prob be found through this one.... OH and a Thurman skull for completeness ;p

Bad Gurl

This was done quite awhile ago.. like, I was still in classes when I did this up. I figure I may as well post it since I'm trying to make my blog my main art hub. Just a bit of fanart from one of my favourite ever games: Bad girl from the eclectic No More Heroes.

Bad girl is a boss near the end of the game who disappears before we even find out her name! I think I like her because there's an amazing amount of characterization put into such a throwaway villain; even though there's 0 info on her, and her involvement in the plot is minuscule at best, the few scenes she was in made me feel as if I knew her inside out and wanting more.

Here's to the tertiary character, who on occasion,  can be the 'johnny Depp' of their media.

How to train your pet Gaga

"......can't use my apps and it looks like a crap so I don't really like my Gronckle phone!"

An experiment inspired by the amazing artwork of Bobby Pontillas and his animation appropriate style. I'm still searching for my own place stylistically, and there's just something so charming and simple about this approach; this is not to say I'm actually GOOD at it. This is really just the first step into waters unknown and I doubt I'll be staying in one place for too long.

That said, I've wanted to draw gaga in a different dragon per song for awhile now, since I saw the movie! I'd rather do them all up as finished products.... but I felt this experiment was worth showing.

Moving out

Goodbye room! Damn it's 4 am but I had to draw the place and I'm moving out tomorrow. Due to how absurdly early it is, I omitted a lot of the clutter.

Tall grass

 

It's been forever since my last post on here, so I thought I'd throw up this quick little painting of "tall grass" from pokemon. Done in photoshop using a bit of reference. Sorry about the brightness, I just found out my pc has been making everything appear way brighter and more saturated than it should be... Anyways I'll try and post more often than I've been doing! (hopefully not an empty promise)

Layout project

Omg finished the bone/ anatomy test that the first years all go through, it was... easier than I thought it'd be, though I shouldn't say that till I get it back.....

Also, this is the bg I made for a layout project that's due sometime next week, not the greatest digital paint job but does the trick. There are actually characters that are on separate layers but I sortof skimped on them soooo I'd rather not post that version. 'Meh' to that though, other projects to do.

PS test

quick test in photoshop from last year. I totally forgot about it till now

Orange

Study of an orange I made a week back, made in ps cs4

First post!

  Hahaha, half a year gone by and only now am I getting around to using my blog. Anyways I'll try and upload stuff as often as I can so enjoy! Just to make my first post cooler, this is a speedpaint I made in Shannonville, Ontario... more than a little creepy
