Doodles, year 2, part 1
Some doodles from second year notebooks.
Daneel Olivaw, Theory class, Oct 5, 2008. My favourite character from The Caves of Steel and sequels, by Isaac Asimov. He’s a robot! With genuine emotions, sorta! Continue reading
Falling
“Pffft, who needs two hands anyway? I’m using the other one to rescue kittens.”
This is a picture of a time when I was depressed, so Flairé caught me on the way down… One of my friends says “he’s very confident he can catch you, reaching up with only one hand…”
Yes, yes he is.
Next year’s poster
WHAT YOU DOIN’ WITH A BLACK AND WHITE POSTER IT’S S’PPOSED TO BE GREEN
Actually, that would be this year’s recital poster. …If I ever get around to taking it. See, it needs to be in a pine forest near sunset. Which means fall because spring never gets around to that sort of atmosphere by the time that recitals and juries are on.
My recital poster for last year was okay. It was a little last-minute, which is all my fault. But I had this specific image in mind. So I will do it this year. Continue reading
Flairé, dancing again
Kalmaeirin ballet: looks painful
I was bored or something and drew a quick sketch of Flairé with limbs that are much too long. …And that’s all I have to say.
Kate Beaton is still fabulously random. And I just found a comic about Romans. Yay!
Also a fantastic comic about vampires and the French Revolution. Bite Me. I mean, Woot.
Kickbutt McAwsum (a.k.a. Flairé)
*cue manic laughter and Leahy*
The logical next step for my new Christmas ’08 Art Pens was to draw Flairé!! I mean, combine them with my existing French-Greyscale art markers. I like these results, even if I still don’t know how to draw hands. Nice boots, I would say. And hair. His face is a little bit creepy, though. I decided I was tired of calling him Flairé all the time, so I titled this picture Kickbutt McAwsum. On second thought, that’s a silly name. I should have called it Kickbutt McAwsumpants. <3
Bob Christmas Fanart
Those potato peelers are HAWT. I mean, the potato peeler. Ahem. Yes.
Next up for the ’08 Christmas New Pen Fanart Spree was Bob, of True Magic. Lookin’ good there, Robert. : D I think I like his hair better like this instead of the thick, almost bushy mop that he has in the comic right now. But whatever. He’s still cute. (Joe is cuter at the moment, though… despite the trim.)
I tried doing the outside lines in a thicker pen. …It worked. I’d do it a bit differently now.
I’m in a TRIO. It has clarinet, horn, and piano, and so far we’re doing a wierd piece that was published using the composer’s manuscript (so, messy messy – but he does put accidentals in places that I approve) and it sounds jazzy which is kind of cool but WHAT THE HECK I’M IN A TRIO GUYS. It’s been too long since I did chamber music with multiple people.
LinT Christmas Fanart
Ambush! …Wait, it’s only Hope. Never mind!
This was the Christmas that my brother gave me inking pens!! I immediately tried them out by drawing Christmas presents for my favourite webcomics, starting with LinT. So Sangwine’s legs are a little short and the lines are rather sketchy. (I did use a pencil first, btw.) But that’s okay! I’m not sure what’s happening, but it’s supposed to be funny.
Hollas
Playing on a half size… you’re doing it pretty good…?
And this is Hollas, violinist virtuoso and composer extraordinare, as I saw him at one of the violin class recitals, I think. His hair was shiny and made me want to draw it. But I drew his violin much much too small and never got around to fixing it (hence the arrow that says ‘fix’). I drew the piano in the background, but it was too distracting so I removed it again. And it doesn’t really look like Hollas because I didn’t actually use a real-life reference. But it’s supposed to be Hollas.
Did I say that Kim has a fantastic cute haircut? Kim has a fantastic cute haircut.
Swirly Ephraim
Swirly Ephraim is swirly
This is a picture of Ephraim! Yaaaay! I decided I wanted to draw a picture of him looking dramatic, from above, with lights and wind twining around him. And it worked! That’s the amazing part. My brother still hates this picture. I DUN CARE. The thing in his left hand is the Sacred Stone, and it’s supposed to be glowing. Perspective is a bit off on Reginleif, his lance… and I forgot his bracelet. But I’m still really happy with how this turned out. I think I used a reference for the face but I’m not sure about the rest of him. And somehow I seem to recall drawing this on vacation which was in August, but that could be a false memory.
