WHEW sure have been busy the past couple weeks going to doctor and finding a new place to live and working a lot of hours????? So not much time to make sweet sweet art in between all that (and being lazy i guess???) but anyway managed to doodle out some stuff and do a few gestures the past few days so that'll have to do for now!

Gestures. I had a DA slideshow going and then some bad anime drawing popped up so I decided to do a "gesture" of it too lol.

Doodle of Touhou character Suwako. I don't really know anything about the series but she's a cute character so...


A character I made up on the spot to sort of draw alongside a friend's character. Look at those massively long legs wow. I think I went overboard trying to make her look tall & thin haha.
Quick little doodle I did in SAI of Corryn the lion goil. Standing around looking like a grouch as usual eueh.

A couple weeks ago I decided to start thinking more about the lives of my characters in terms of their history and future, in order to get a better feel of how they are outside of their "present". Basically I wanted to flesh them out, so this is my character Owl drawn as a 16 year old high school kid rather than the snot-nosed 11 year old boy he is in the present. I feel like I did a pretty good job keeping the character "real" through the aging process and also keeping him recognizable although obviously aged. Maybe it's easier for me to tell because I draw him almost every day, but anyway...

This post is full of a lot of pictures despite me saying I haven't done much art the past couple weeks.

GESTURES & STUFF

Here are some gestures I did at starbux today. I have random pose generator app from posemaniacs on my ipod so I can do some more interesting drawings than "man sitting at table drinking coffee" or "woman sitting at table eating scone" or the ever popular "2 people sitting at a table talking while drinking lattes". Anyway:


Two of these gestures have been turned into Rachael and Penny (My pal Mokou) for whatever reason lol. Anyway, I also spent some time doing a quick digital painting. I want to start getting better at it so that I can paint my own drawings, so I figured I'd combine figure study and painting for my first exercise since it's more fun than painting an apple or something (I'll do that later)




Obviously plenty of errors and things that can be fixed, but I feel like it's not too bad for an hour and like zero experience haha. Anyway I'm excited about doing more of that in the future! That's it for now!
