Just Sketches

best of from a doodle page

looked up batting gloves and sketched some out, the stars aligned and helped me draw some decent looking hands for once!

and uh yeah, husky batters.

Messing around making a lovecraftian god monster thing based on a silly idea I had at the time. Who is he? Who knows, who cares.

Big Bad Batter Dump

Most of my drawings lately are sketches and warmup doodles done between actual work so I may as well post the best ones. 
Done over the past few months, I date almost everything because I like being organized and it's easier to see how I've improved.
Yeah it's more things from OFF whoops oh well

giving the batter weird eyeballs seems to be a thing among OFF fans so I practiced painting eyeballs and faces and such

personally I like drawing the ghostly "no pupils + hasn't slept in ten years" look

I was pretty proud of that portrait done in like 20 min

I tried giving him more eyes as a facial deformity or something but it wasn't turning out that well and gave up

bonus filler doodle

not much bro how you doin'

I liked that last sketch so I messed around with it more

I tried drawing cleft/exposed lips since I was still on a facial deformity kick

part of a larger unfinished sketch which wasn't very good

tried the white eyes thing on bad batter with a twist

they are aren't fully white, the irises/pupils are just a very pale grey and hard to see unless looking closely. I kinda like it

sometimes I mess around and draw loose and silly

those hands are interesting

This one's more fixed-up cuz I like how it turned out =]

All were done in Photoshop except the last one, which was done in Flash

Cheers!

Bleh update + Cactus Girl + Old project

Jee whiz a whole new year and a whole lotta NOTHING from me I am so sorry. D=

2012 hasn't been to kind to my family and I, the last couple months were probly the worst BUT this is not the place to talk about that aheheheh. 

Basically, family issues, holidays and sickness have been keeping me busy and draining my self-motivation. 

I have been drawing but most of it is on paper and we don't have a scanner so meh. =(

I DO HAVE THIS THOUGH, YAY

While I was kinda sick with a headcold I revisited an original character I made for a hand-drawn animated film back in college. (I also drew some ugly anime eyes haha)

I'm bad with names so I just call her Cactus Girl. She's a sweet, happy-go-lucky little gal, also very affectionate, but no one likes hugging her 'cause she's a cactus. (I'm terrible ahaha xD)

She was originally one of a classroom of monster children in a monster elementary school. the plot revolved around a new teacher who comes in and tries to teach them magic but since they're monster kids TERRIBLE AND HILAROUS THINGS HAPPEN. At one point Cactus Girl was set on fire. XD

I felt obligated to make it up to her by redesigning her and making her nice and pretty. =3

The pic on the bottom with the check mark is the one I liked the most/spent most effort on so I blew it up. I may use her in an animation someday so I'm settling on this design, however I might remove her floaty eyebrows since they get kinda lost between her eyelashes, bows, thorns and pigtails. Basically, too many lines up there.

The film project itself was kind of a scatterbrained disaster and the final movie file was never shared so I don't have much to show for my hard work (character designs, storyboards, animation, inking and coloring) T_T 

All I got is my character designs, storyboards for a deleted sequence, and some ugly pencil tests.

Here's some monster kid concepts where Cactus Girl originated:

Wow she looked kinda fat and plain back then haha. Only her and the chameleon made it in the film, but the chameleon was redesigned by somebody else into something quite different. (he became a cute fat little chameleon haha)

I designed a little centaur kid too, I might revisit him as well since he's pretty cute =3 I based him more off a donkey since donkeys are kinda cute hehe. He was the shy cowardly kid who eventually got transformed into a pinata (the square-ish versions of him on the right side) and beaten up by the other kids for candy. Like I said, terrible and hilarious.

Ok wow this got kinda long so that's it for now, Cheers.
