Night Drawings

Some more drawings from last night... Nothing exciting...

A Levels

Here are some very old image I found in my sketchbook. These were done when I was in college, about 4 years ago? Yeah, I love painting with oils, need to practice them again because I have forgotten how to paint...

Went out to do some more night drawings, nothing much to draw except the road and cars. Got some fairly good results though. Would have done more, but there wasn't anything that interesting to draw really...

Today in life drawing we had a martial arts model posing for us. Quite exciting at first but then got extremely tedious towards the end, and I completely flopped it... They made us do 5 second drawings as our last exercise, and I don't think you'd want to see the result haha. But all in all a good session. Learned something new today, but I think the tutor was giving the same advice to everyone... Will post some up once I get a scan of them.

I also watched a film with my housemates, it was called 'The Descent'... According to people, it was one of the most 'scariest' film they've seen... But I didn't even jump one bit in that film... It just irritated the hell out of me because of the dumb characters. And the stupid monster looks like Voldemort.... So yeah. No. It doesn't even come close to being scary.

That's all for now.

Drawing Light

These were the images produced when me and Nat went out drawing at night.
That was the time I caught a cold... If you remember in my previous post...

2nd Year Life Drawing

Yeah, I feel like I need to do more of these... Comparing them to my first year's work, they do look slightly better, but they still have the same sort of feel to it... Maybe it's just the way I draw.


I will be posting more of these soon. Got a huge pile of these in my USB.


As for news, I got nothing... I went to Brighton for the weekend, just to sort some stuff out. My mum's not feeling very well, so that's the reason I went down to visit. She's been away from work for about a month now so I got concerned.

I was rummaging through the storage closet last night and I found some of my old books from A-Levels haha. I was surprised with what I saw... I've came to a conclusion that i now suck at painting and I need to practice more. My books from A-Levels were so much better hahahahahaha. That's what I get for relying on digital painting I guess... I need to start using some oil paints again. I really like using them. But yeah, I'll post some of the pages from my old stuff here soon, just need to get hold of a scanner....

That's all folks!

Peace!

Sculpture Studies

Went to the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

So did a few sketches of some sculptures. It's quite annoying drawing black sculptures 'cause they're not so easy to shade... But all in all a good trip!

I've got more stuff scanned now, so I'll be updating more often this time around!

Samuel

Been finalizing characters this week. Did some tweaking with my old sketch. Had to redraw it and make it clearer since the shadows are quite confusing...

Anyway, here's some thumbnails.

Hope they're useful James, since you already know the process.

Advanced Photoshop Feature

Hey guys, I haven't updated since I've started uni... This is due to having no access to my computer... I also had some trouble when I was formatting it, but now it's all clean and running smoothly. I'm trying to install windows7 but for some reason the file I downloaded [the official one] doesn't seem to extract itself...

Apart from that, I have been cracking on with uni for about 3 weeks now. We've done a lot of stuff in a short amount of time. And for the record, I'm ill because I went out drawing one night and it was cold as hell. As I've said before, I'm working a film called Pure Funk. So far it's been going well. I've been doing a lot of character design, but am now slowly moving on to layouts.

Sorry Jim, I'll still help you out. You're officially my student, and I want to pass on as much knowledge as I can to you. So keep working.

... But yeah, I'll Post some material some time.

Anyway, about this post, I just wanted to share with you a scan of my feature page on this month's advance Photoshop. That's pretty much it. Will update more soon.
