Summer time?

I know I'd be back a little while ago... But due to extreme nagging from my mother for me to get a job, I haven't really been drawing or painting... Any time she seems me relaxing or even just sitting down, she goes crazy :/. But she was out today, and I managed to get some...Crap done :o I really really want to get back to studying and stuff though, because I've been so unhappy lately, with everything that's been going on. I could really use an outlet these days. Anyway, here is today's crap! Super stupid warmup :P

I'm actually kind of happy with where this one is going....I'll have to try REALLY hard to finish it! :)

Hello? (Hello?...Ello?...Llo?...lo?...o?...o...)

Is anybody there? :P

I'm back :P

And tired.
I should go to bed now. I'll write more another time :)

Here's an Ampharos I drew the other day. It was the first thing I drew/painted since I started back up again....And I know the pose is generic, but it's the only one I could remember from my head! D: I'm happy with it though, I did it fast, and pretty easily :)



This is from today, I don't know what to say about it right now...Too sleepy D:



I know I need to stop blending the hell out of everything...But it's hard! D:

The concept it to have her walking through fog, with her spear and skimpy outfit, with a bright white light source on one side.



Next time I work on it...I'm going to transform her body or something, because she looks squished :P

See you soon! :)

Time Sink :/

I'll write a post now even though it isn't that late, just because I've been SO busy today, I don't think I'll have time to later :(.

My mom worked me like a slave today, because we have these REGENERATING TRESS at the side of our house. Seriously, last year i DECIMATED these tress, roots and everything. There was NOTHING LEFT except soil. And somehow, they came back :o.
But yeah, I was doing that from the time I woke up, till now, and basically had no time for myself today to do any figure drawing or anything.

So in my tired state, I worked a little on my work in progress from before. Taking into account the advice that I got! :) I darkened some of the values, pushed the saturation a little, and did some weird background crap :p. I also tried applying some of the colour theory stuff I read about...But I'm not sure how obvious that is.

It's not much, but it's better than not painting at all I guess?

I dunno if I still want to finish this xD. But I kind of do, so I can have an icon to use that I made myself :).

But if not, I can include in an art dump. Because that's what all the cool kids do :p.

After



Take it easy, and tell me what you think :)

Survival

I just survived my first week of school. So now I only have...One...Two...Three...One million more to go! :( I'm proud of myself though, because I managed to draw and stuff during the week :) Despite having a new schedule :).


I won't post my drawings from the past couple of day's this time, but I WILL show you a painting I started today! It started off as a study of a photograph, but while I was sketching I thought to myself "It's been a while since you last painted something from your imagination man". So I closed the reference and started this :P.



Please tell me what you think of it, and it what ways I can improve on it :). I plan to cover the missing eye, which is why it isn't painted at the moment :P.

And in other art related news. Everyone seems to be excited about Wacom's new product. The Inkling. After watching this video about it though...I personally don't think it's all that practical :/. But maybe that's just me. Tell me what you think :)




See you next time :)
