Art Dump

Saturday, October 25th, 2008

Here’s some stuff I’ve been working on for colouring:

It’s…alright, not too great but I’m still working on building my portfolio.


This was actually our first assignment in the computer colouring class, and I only dislike the first image. The other two I had fun colouring. The man in the moon wasn’t actually in the original lineart. But I love The Mighty Boosh too much to pass up that opportunity.

Okay, for our midterm, we have to colour two sequential comic pages, a pin-up and whatever we want. I chose to colour one of my most favourite comics, Kabuki. I absolutely love the painted style, it’s the kind of style I’d ideally want to create. Which I still strive for, traditionally. But I think I can pull it off well digitally. David Mack’s black and white pages are far more open to fancy colouring, which is why I chose this page:

And ran with it. Unfortunately, I haven’t gotten to the page after this, that’s for another update.

Not Fun to Wake Up To

Sunday, October 12th, 2008

Today’s my birthday and I was woken up at 8 a.m. by a tree falling. Awesome! It wasn’t so bad, just because it was a short loud “CRACK” noise. And I don’t think it did too much damage to the car it fell on. It was later, at 9 a.m., when the chainsaw started, that I quite disliked Nature’s way of telling me happy birthday.

Oh well, the day is dark and dreary and the tree has been cut up and moved. I’m looking towards a pretty good birthday day now. Nice and quiet, spent with the man I love.

weekend update time again

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

We’re working on our midterms right now in my computer colouring class, which means that I have about 4 pages to colour (and some to draw) before next Thursday. I’ll be pretty busy getting that stuff up and done, but I’m planning on posting some recent work this weekend.

Now, off to class to doodle and colour for 2 1/2 hours!

Rock Band

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

After going to a Rock Band party this weekend, I think J and I are determined to get it. However, while it’s a fun game and all, I don’t think you can consider screaming as loud as you can as you fumble the words singing.

My ears hurt that night. Nonetheless, the game shall be purchased, played and replayed over and over again until some other music game comes out that’s as good.
