Caricatures are interesting things.....

AI stuff

Found my Illustrator files from my graphic design class last semester! These are from my favorite project, which was to create art from letters using only a max of 4 different letters for each image. The images also had to project the idea of specific words assigned and mine were speed, tension and structure.

Right now I'm trying to do something cute for myself in between school work. Here's a WIP of what I did today

Long absence ends now~ It's been too long since I've posted, but I also find it a little hard deciding what to share as I have not been entirely satisfied with my stuff as of late. Well, I'm still learning, so I guess I'll just try to post regularly and hopefully watching my progress will encourage me more. Below are my latest digital drawings and a group of recent sketches of a new character I just started drawing

                                                   

Anime Expo Aftermath and Class

Well... this last month has been rather hectic. I had an artist alley table at the Anime Expo with my good friend, Ka-chan and we sold scarves, prints and stickers. I unfortunately was unable to complete pins to sell, but looks like Ka-chan might get us another table for the Pacific Media Expo (PMX) later this year. here's some of the stickers and prints I had this weekend :

LOTS and LOTS of sticker designs. But, people liked them and things went pretty well. Even did a couple of sticker commissions while I was there. Had a great neighbor too, and good roommates at the hotel, so it was a pretty good weekend overall.

Also been having fun in the perspective summer workshop I've signed up for. Here's some of the thumbnails I've done for the 1 point perspective assignment, along with a first cleanup I've got so far. 

Gonna work on tonal studies now and start thumbnails for the 2 point perspective assignment now.

I live~

Huh... well I got somehow locked outta my blog for a bit... reset the password and all but it only finally let me log in now.... weird. Anyhow, finally started a tumblr after some persuasion from some friends:

Probably some of the same stuff as here along with some other things.

Either way, finally stopped being lazy and scanned a LOT of sketches out of my last two sketchbooks, (mostly Triados-related stuff, though. Got a couple of random sketches in there too), Here's a few of my personal favs:

I like Maggie and Kael a lot... especially as kids, they are just so cute together <3

 I had a small phase where I drew numerous "chibi" versions of me and my friends' Triados characters. Put them together here to share~

 Drew Lily and Jonathon in a slightly less anime style... I just like how they came out, particularly Jonathon.

 Jonathon, being lively as usual

Just a color test I did with a sketch of Kael. I liked how it looks with just the shadows colored in.

 And finally, a young Kiya with a Hannari Tofu pillow. I love those things to no end, got a nice collection of them on my bed to prove it, too. :3

Finals weeks

That busy, busy time of year.... @_@   working on projects for 2 animation classes (2D and 3D) and then illustration. Kinda trying my best to keep up without too much sleep deprivation but I think I'm gonna need those extra hours now.... oh well. Here's a WIP page for illustration: 

and this is an old picture of a OC of mine, Demi Faye with her favorite Yu-Gi-Oh! monsters. I kinda wanna redo this sometime now that I look at it 

busy busy busy

been working to keep up with my schoolwork lately. Haven't worked on extra personal projects in a while, sadly. However, I am greatly enjoying my illustration class since we have free reign on our projects~  I'm trying a high school slice-of-life comic. Here's some concept sketches of characters for the story:

I've started arranging 2 pages, which the teacher seems to approve of with minor changes. Hopefully I'll have the penciled images done soon.
