I need to learn to digital paint, and Frank Frazetta's work is serving of great inspiration. I have done a few tonal studies, and feel I am making some kind of headway. Stepping stones., 9996 to go.

Here is almost an entire print of newsprint after a recent life drawing session(extra life,this past Monday Jan 23 2012). I put up studies, unfinished drawings,and drawings. I never go into life drawing with the intent of doing a good drawing, but with the intent on coming out of the session with a better understanding of drawing from life then when I went it. More updates soon.

I would organize everything for the masses, but this update and the next few are just school assignments.

She rules the Damned -Drawing a day #1!

Line weight,something I rarely do,and really need to start.

Blue Pencil sketch, I still like this one better, I always like my original sketch over the clean up. I like it rough! Wait... haha.

This is drawing #1 for a drawing a day! Me and a friend in my class (I'll link his blog once he UPLOADS IT) are doing a dual of sorts. MORE a "draw more " challenge and improvement tool then a dual. But the idea is to, no matter what, update your blog with a finished work by the end of each day. So, starting today, hopefully a lot more coming your way internet!

I don't know why, but I was into an egyptian styled "queen of the dead" mood. Or that's what I drew anyway. Thoughts? Fire away. Comments too!

Drawing #2 coming soon!

that'll do pig...or will IT!?

So, every scan and photo I took are corrupted besides sir oinks a lot here. So, I'll have to try uploading again tomorrow once I re-scan an entire sketchbook. Sweet. D:

Story Beats...

You have to read the middle image and then the top one for the story beats, and this was an assignment for school. I'm now boarding it,and the story is far more developed, but we started with taking the phrase(Each class was given one) and running with it. I went with the monster under the bed fighting the monster in the closet for the boy in an all out brawl! The designs have changed slightly,I'll post them when the story boards are finalized!
