So where have I been?

I've been tearing out my hair. It's been fun, but extremely tiring. Still, not nearly as stressful as Conceptual Illustration (at least not at this particular moment).

I still don't have much to show for this quarter, though I've got some fun sketches to show you guys once I scan them. Storyboarding Club on top of classes has kept me very busy, but at least I don't have to dog around with any Senior Films at the moment.


On a side note: Cars. Oh my gosh, CARS. So fun to cartoon. Not at all fun to draw normally.

But that'll have to wait.

Anyway, some fairly crappy inks (at least a crappy scan of some okay inks).

And a poster I made for a Club Challenge.

Should make posters more often really, it's been the only truly "fun" thing this quarter aside from some stupid sketchbook drawings.

'Till whenever I have some more to show everyone!

This week in progress:

So finished pencils are happening right now, but I'll show you guys my tight roughs for these things:

(Note: Since these I have changed several things, so the finals are going to look different.)

 Sooooo for the next so many days I'll be finishing these.

This isn't the only work I've been doing but all my stuff for speed sketching sort of spans about 100 pages of work right now, and a fair amount of it is kind of awful.

I don't have much else to say right just yet, so till next time!

First Week Done, WOOOOH!

It's like that part in The Lord of the Rings where Frodo and co. leave the Shire and then two minutes later the Black Riders have ridden them down. Where's the elves when I need them? Or a creepy Tom Bombadil?

So, kind of a bad idea taking Visual Storytelling and Speed Sketching together.
And then some surprise Senior Film work...
And other things.

Actually, Easter was surprisingly fun aside from the all-nighter. Parents took me to Outback, and the waitress issued this epic coaster tower challenge. Naturally (after 30 odd attempts), I won. Well, I actually didn't get it as tall as the waitress challenged (I'm one card tier too short), but I spent well over an hour working on the thing when most people sort of give up after 5 minutes so I bagged a free dessert.
And our food was delayed for a ridiculous amount of time, so the manager gave our table free desserts anyway. Funny how life works out.

BUT, still managing alright after the first week. I swear, it feels more like it's been 3 weeks. It's going to be a rough quarter.

Here's my first assignments from Vis, all pretty rough. I'm going to be reamed for the tight roughs being as loose as they are, but I'm running on fumes here and it's almost time to "wake up". There'll be time for cleaning up later.
