Look What I Drew! 08/27/2014

Edward Elric, from Fullmetal Alchemist! (Google + request)

Sorry for being inactive as of late: I've been trying to balance work and drawing. It's hectic. I'm still working on Queen's Quartz but it's going much slower than I thought. I didn't meet the deadline I set for myself, so at this point I may just release the pages individually so everyone has something to read and hopefully get excited about. I think I need people to get excited about it so I feel like I'm not wasting my time or something.

Day 7 of the Art Jam: April O'Neil from TMNT. Just the inks for now; I may color it in soon.

Queen's Quartz is moving along nicely, but still slow for my tastes. I've got 3 rough pages finished as of today...I should be using my tablet to do more of them. I'm gonna. I don't even know why I brought it up.

I'll be going to NY Comic Con on Thursday only, so if anyone is heading there lemme know!

Art Jam, Day 4: Skeletor (Masters of the Universe)

This was one pretty fun. Only 2 more left and that's the end of the Art Jam for August!

Uhhhhh let's see...I worked on a new page for Queen's Quartz. I'll post up a preview soon, but I gotta get my work drive up if I wanna be at least halfway finished. I also tried using a different anatomy method: the bean. I've seen it used before but I never really liked it because I wasn't sure how to define the body from it, but I decided to really study this video by the artist Stan Prokopenko and it clicked. It's a very good method especially when you're working different angles of the body. I incorporated it with the latest page and I can already see a difference in anatomy.

What methods do you other artists use? Lemme know in the comments!

Art Jam, Day 4: Sawyer from LOST.

I didn't care much for this subject. I'd much rather stick with cartoons/movies/comics, but tv shows? Eh. It always runs the risk of being something you never watched, or you hated. This fell right into that category. I never watched Lost, never cared to, and honestly it took some effort to get through this one.

The next day'll be better. Truth be told, I'm a day behind, but I'll get to it tomorrow...I'm so tired.

Anybody got a show they don't care about, and why?

Art Jam, day 3: Dragon's Lair.

I remember this game when it was on laserdisc! I always wanted to play it because it was so unusual for a game to basically be a cartoon, but it as also very expensive so bun all that.

Today's art jam subject is pretty lame: It's anything from the show Lost, which I never got into. I hate subjects like this. I'd rather it stays with movies, comics, games, or cartoons; I rarely like doing tv shows. I'll power through it but I have no good ideas for it so whatever.

I'm on page 10 of Queen's Quartz! I should get up to 13-14 by the end of the week...I gotta tell ya, it's hard work doing all of this on my own. I probably shouldn't have signed up for this art jam but it'll keep my art work flowing and not let me get lazy.

Art Jam, Day 2: Usagi Yojimbo. I had the action figure of him when I was a kid and the Ninja Turtle toys were all the rage.

I have a commission due, more art jam subjects, and Queen's Quartz, so my schedule is full this week. Feels pretty good to be an artist right now!
