magi, yeah there's a time limit. 1 hour. so we have to draw the theme in any medium, however we want to draw it, but we should not exceed the time limit. Mine's a bit far from the "self-doubt" theme, but it works.
thanks Dshu! and jessy, I'm really sorry for the delay I'm having on-the-job training (it's like work experience thing) and I haven't got the the chance to sit down and draw some panels. Although I have read your story and I have a basic idea of the plot.. I just don't have the time to do the pages . Don't worry, I'm gonna start it this week. So if there would be any new art coming from me, it would be about Rue. I promise. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
*Shakes fist* You better! Also remind me to get on aim and get in touch with you soon.
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
GAH! After a month of not drawing anything (curse you summer job-experience thing!), I tried drawing an imaginary creature for my drawing club. Prior to this, I draw an octopus and a werewolf, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to scan them.
So anyway, I just realized I suck at drawing stuff based mainly from imagination. I tried doing different creatures, but I end up failing. Either it turns into some humanoid being, or I open a drawing or image of another creature and "copy" it. Perhaps I'm not that experienced yet to start drawing based on imagination, and I lack originality, which are quite critical if I want to start drawing a sequential story. Anyway, here's the dog thing I drew today. I believe the right arm/paw is pretty fucked up. Too much lines. P.S. I'm currently working on one of Jessy's stsories, but I won't be posting any art until I finish em. Still doing thumbnails on how the panel flows and all. Hi Jessy! I was speaking idiomatically. |
I actually really like this werewolf/dog (?) thingy. It looks rather convincing. Just because it is drawn from imagination doesn't mean those creatures shouldn't have at least some semblance to some of the real life animals in terms of how they move or body structures. Its all about organizing the thought process, some of the thing that one might think about when designing a certain creatures might be some the practicalities of some of their features, sometimes based on the environment that those creatures lived in, or the circumstances in which the creature is created. Of course, that doesn't mean one must apply those logic (and you can come up with the look, and reverse engineer the logic too), its just that it would be easier to organize your thought and find references.
How ya doing, buddy?

I missed you =(
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Me too =(
Don't worry I'll work on your Rue when I have some free time. Since I'm trying to join this group but they want me to submit a sample of sequential art. So I'm using your story. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Sweet! I look sooooo forward to it. You have no idea.

Besides the tissue paper art thingy, I haven't seem you done much studies. I was speaking idiomatically.

But studies are boring, Magi. And when you're bored and drawing, it shows in your work.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
yeah, and when I say "properly", I kind ofrefer to art that I can include in my portfolio. There's this local group of artists who conduct exhibits and all, they are more into digital rendered art. A few of my friends are part of the group, they are asking me to submit a portfolio so it can be screened. And I don't have a "proper" portfolio
But magi has a point. FELIPE NO |
Wow, you are joining a art associate? That's kinda exciting, actually. :3 This could be your springboard to opportunity in the industry sometimes, I thought it could be a tight fit for you guys. Are you guys doing publication also or simply exhibitions?

For now, they're doing exhibits only. The publication/comics thing is still under plans, it's a bit difficult, budget and all. But I want to join this group, at least I can get some exposure. But with the amount of schoolwork I'm doing, it would probably take some time before I can make a presentable portfolio.
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
You WOULD side with Captain America. Bah!
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
In the past few weeks, I haven't really got the time or the motivation to draw. Maybe because of a lot of school work and stuff. So to change that, I have decided that I return to my old habit of drawing something, anything, every night. So that my skills won't degrade and it's also a way to sqeeze those creative juices stuck in my head. I've promised people that I will be doing some art for them, and I really apoligize that until now I haven't finished or even started doing it. Sorry Jessy
My sketch for tonight. Took me 45 minutes approx. It seems that I'm getting slow. (click the image for a bigger view) This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Yeah, but still, an hour or 2 from my schedule won't do harm. I think my main problem is the motivation or inspiration to draw something. Unlike other people who are either forced, or have to draw everyday because they have to, or it's what they actually do (art school, work, etc.) But I'll try my best to get back into drawing, it's such a waste if I don't.
Actually, it's the same thing that happened 5-6 years ago. I got into college and I stopped drawing, which "reset" my skills. So now, I'm trying to make up for the lost time and opportunity to improve my art. I was speaking idiomatically. |
Are you often very tired when you are in your off time?
Most amazing jew boots |
A bit. You know the feeling of being "drained", or you just want to sit down and relax. It's like that. I find it hard to draw in that state since when I draw, I kind of get myself into it. I sometimes imagine stories while I draw, it's like a totally different thing. Or maybe it's just me.
FELIPE NO |
I know what you mean about the way you have to sort of force yourself to draw. Because you really don't feel as though you're compelled to in some way. I mean, not like you get paid for it or it's for a grade. I go through the same shit with my writing.
And don't worry about it. I'm a patient woman! (Also read my new story) Also, forgot to add that that's a great looking Shulkie. Yay for everybody's favorite hot, green slut. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
