Skull Studies
I've been slacking, I know
I've actually been doing tons of gesture drawings at starbucks still, just nothing worth showing.
Yesterday I made a trip to the LA Museum of Natural History to do some skull studies of the ice age mammals exhibit.
They were pretty quick, 20 minutes each just to get basic form and proportion and such

Stuff from This Week
Work is starting to slow down a little on a game project I'm working on and CTN portfolio deadline is fast approaching. October 15th! also the deadline for the game to be finished, so holy crap! hahaha.. great client though, so I'm not concerned...oddly enough a good client who's not a pushy jerk will make me work faster and better than one who's constantly like "DO THIS RIGHT NOW" and is a wiener about it. Stubbornness... it's a curse.
Anyways, here's some stuff I've done the past week:
A couple illustrations inspired by Lunenburg Nova Scotia. It started out just as fall because Lunenburg is quite pretty in the fall, and LA doesn't have that season it seems. But then I played around with it and got winter, and now I don't know which one I like better... which is funny because I don't know whether I like Lunenburg's winter or fall better, they are both really pretty.
Rain in LA, because I find it so incredibly funny how worked up about the rain they all get. this was drawn from the window of a starbucks on the one day it poured here. I hear they get like... one or two days a year, and I experienced it. It was very comforting, and reminded me of home:
Animal silhouettes and sketches. These are for that game I'm working on. I have final versions of all of these, but I don't want to post them yet, out of respect for the client. He gave me the go ahead to use them in my portfolio, so I'll use it for my personal CTN stuff, but I don't like posting final game assets on the internet prior to the game getting released. So now you all have to buy the game to see what they look like finished haha... and tons of other stuff I've done!
Girls love puppies... just for fun
I also edited the birds to make the composition a bit better:
and that's it! Working on a giant illustration today and potentially on and off for the rest of the week.
I also have a whole sketchbook full of studies from this week from the zoo and starbucks
hitting starbucks every day for warmup drawings, it's like having super fast figure drawing sessions every day. Definitely paying off to warm up I think.

Drawing Club: Burglar
Went to one of Bob Kato's drawing club sessions.
It was so fun! It was this tiny little old man dressed as burglar with tons of fun props, it was great. I decided to try something a little out of my comfort zone, so i went with brush and ink and some watercolor on top.
It's a lot looser and more free than my regular stuff, I like it, I'll have to do more for sure.

LA Zoo: Sept 14th
I bought a membership to the LA zoo, and went for the second time yesterday before my class.
I got a few okay sketches out of it, I really need to loosen up, start paying more attention to the gesture, less attention to the hairs and details.
These were all better than the first round though, i was super rusty the first day, it was awful.
I really like how the lioness in this set was in the same pose as the mountain lion from my day at shubie a few months ago.
Lions love sleeping with their butts in your face.
