MonoChrome Rough

Allright, maybe i'll post the colour rough i did today for this character, but in the mean time this is the monochrome rough that i did for a concept assignment during my work experience for fuzzyeyes over the week.

Check out the game- Edge of Twilight. It should be awesome when its finished!

A few more Resources

heya, im back to photo collection at fuzzy eyes, here's a few helpful links ive found today-Lewis Hine, an old photojournalist, and a site dedicated to old photographs. I'll post some of the colours i did in the morning a little later :)

haha, i think im gunna keep updating this all afternoon-

I havent really posted much from the film that we are working on. Which is kinda weird because its pretty much consuming my life. This is test render that i did today. just to get a feeling of how its all hanging together.

nice resource

Hey i was just having a look around some blogs tonight and i found this really nice resource. The animator is David Nethery and this is a link to a collection of his work. Its really inspiring

Work Experience Thumbnails

So I've been working as a work experience kid at a Brisbane games studio called fuzzyeyes for the last couple of months. Until recently i'd been searching for, collecting and collating reference photos of the net. Today i asked if i could do something a little more creative (because it is required of my course). And guess what! They gave me a character to design. This is the initial stages of my design-they have a very rigid schedule for character designing, the first stage of which is the thumbnailing stage. The following are the three thumbnails i liked the best out of todays work. The middle one was selected for further development, so next week i will take that drawing further. It is a great experience working in a professional pipeline. I'm looking forward to next monday.

(oh the brief was pretty detailed, but the basic idea is a hobo in a fantasy/steampunk world)

Life Drawings with INK

In life drawing today we were introduced to ink. It was a pretty fun class.
This one was a doodle i did to get used to the brush:
These are some 2 minute memory drawings made with a nib and ink
I really want to do some more of these

Waiter Pad Sketches

Aight, im really tired, so im not going to write as much as i should for this blog. I just got back from splendour in the grass this morning. Needless to say it was a whole tower of fun, but i'll write all about that in a later blog (wen i have some pictures to share!!!)

What this blog is really about is waiter pad sketches. I've got a whole bunch of these little pads laying around from my old job as a waiter. I've always thought it'd be fun to draw in them because you can be so unafraid to make mistakes. They are only tiny pages so your not really that worried about making bad drawings because you can just peel out the page and chuck it if something goes wrong. Plus, its a lot of fun thinking about composition while your using them, something i usually think far to little about. any way these are a few i did today after having a few ideas watching bands over the weekend-sharpie on paper (no pencils underwork, which really is rare for me)(and why the hell are sharpies supposed to be so good, i found them to be like drawing with an ink covered stick, i really dont get all the hype around them, prismas and copics are infinitely better!)
I've got a whole bunch more of these, but i wont bore you with them :) But i do recommend it to anybody with artists block, its a pretty fun thing to try!
