The complaints of life

Big issues in my life at the moment: I want to draw, I want to work on my website, I want to make music and I want to make games. Time is not enough for it all. I do get a few precious hours every night after work, but then I can't decide what to do, so I do a bit of it all. That saying none of it is any good. So I'm i this spot in life where right now, I don't like ANYTHING that I produce. Quite possibly the most unsatisfying feeling for a person that breathes creativity and litterally loose the will to life if I can't get an outlet for it.

Did a quick selfie, just to doodle, last night. I was also working on a background for our game, and at the very last minute I started doing a bit of music. Oh and just before I rolled in to bed I also doodled a bit of animaiton in flash. Nothing to show for it, it was rubbish. Blaaargh.

To try, to fail and to learn

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I completely SUCK at doing landscapes and environments. SO. Learning is the only alternative. Here's some art for another game me and fellow game-making brother are planning. It's an easy-going little thing for mobile platforms so we're going for sweet graphics and no fantastic high-res and stuffs.

I sigh and admit to having a long way yet to go, but I need to start somewhere. 

Another quick one

The late nights

A lot of things I do on Friday nights start with the letters "dr". This Friday night it was draw. Actually most time last night was spent drawing backgrounds for a little game idea me and brother have been talking about, but then I realized I'm SHIT at drawing landscapes and vistas, so I decided to doodle something character-y and practice colouring. Well, what to say. In lack of inspiration I doodled something... eh... resembling me. 

Sneak peak on new webpage illustrations

It's basically an idea I've been wanting to do for a long time. Nothing too original I suppose, but I think it will look great if I manage to actually finalize it. OK, so I want it to have a hand-drawn look to it and I want it to be as animated as possible. There are too few hand-drawn, animated webpages out there imo. Here's a sneak peak on some detail of the first sketches I've done so far.

The beginning of the "decline"

Yes, the project me and my brother have been talking about... since.... 2004 I believe. I decided to start doing some concepts for it. And yes, it's a game. Since it's just the two of us and we need to keep it "simple" for it to actually happen, we're making a Point n Click. Like, a really good one. An adventure! With like... adventurous stuff in it! I don't want to tell you more than that. I'll prop keep posting stuff here when they get done. This is a first sketch of the protagonists of the story in like, casual wear and with gear.

The Sunday

Ah, I love Sundays. It's the only time of the week when you're kindof officially allowed to just sit and do what ever you want. Today I have looked out my window at the dogs and their people walking around in the little park. And then we watched some GoT, and then I painted my awesome basement find: the raindeer horns, in a bright blue colour bordering to offensive, and then I did some drawing and some music, and then my brother came by and gave us cake, and then our neighbor gave us more cake... And then its almost bed-time. How? I honestly don't know where the days go!!! I'm gonna go in to crunch big-time from Monday so this Sunday is perhaps the last bit of me-time I'll have in a few weeks (months). Wanna do a painting, a big-ass-huge-wall-covering painting. Sat and doodled on an idea I had, ended up with playing around with the colours and actually liked the funky inverted version of the sketch more. So, might do a version of this! Allthough I'm not sure the orange goes very well with my flat...
