Okie Loki

Well this is not so Okie Dokie with me. This was meant for a Loki Jam but I got stuck when I started her left arm, maybe the distraction of coursework is sapping my creative energy. I guess I'm just tired lol.

Sai Samson

I've got and essay and four book covers to do by the end of next week, ergh! On a better note, after many years of searching, I found a program I can comfortably sketch in. Her name is Sai Paint Tool. Sorry Sketch Book Pro and Open canvas but you have to leave now.

Winsor Inks

So I had my first attempt at using a actual inking brush! It was a Winsor & Newton size 3 and I made a tonne of mistakes. The first blunder was the super thick first brush stroke on the cheek there, I now see why they say you gotta do warm-ups before inking. It’s no where near as clean as my digital inks but I got the whole thing done in like 15 minutes and I may like this “rougher” look. Not too sure.

Timmy Tribal

I painted on a Munny. His name is Timmy Tribal.


I also bought a crapload of art equipment today. Some copic markers, 2mm coloured pencil lead( wowzers this is cool), some Winsor ink, alot of brush pen refils and some other junk too. You might just see some nice mixed media stuff here soon. Anyway here are some scribbles.

Martin Keamy

Or just Mr.Keamy, the villain from season 4 of Lost. Man this guy was a jerk. The moment he first smiled I knew he was bad news lol.



And a few scribbles I did after watching Superjail. What a weird show.

Time

Gawsh, I don’t have enough time for anything these days. I’m not sure if its just uni or I’m just overloading my day with too many tasks. I think some time/priority management is in order.

Calibrate It

Thanks to a good friend and a little saved money I treated myself to a Intuos3 graphic tablet! Oh Joy! I'm terrible at drawing with graphic tablets but I don't care, I'm determined to get good with this bad boy. Here's a sketch I did trying to calibrate the pressure sensitivity in Painter and Photoshop. It's a bit flat on one side and the eyes are wonky but its a start I guess.
