Fishkids finished?

Managed some drawing on those rare evening hours with no urgent have-to's. Doodled some more on the fish kids. Dunno, its not exactly what I wanted. I DO need to practice more on colours and lights but... you know. Every bit of drawing is practice I suppose. Next up I'll go all in making a digital painting imitating a classical oil portrait. At least that's the plan. Should get back on to doing the dreams again.... so many shoulds. OH WELL. Now, wash dog and then GoT. The fourth book. For the third time.





I changed the design of her legs, still not pleased with the arm and her pose but then my original drawing was very, VERY quick. Next time I'll work more with the poses before I start.

The Fish and the Kids

Yes, against all odds I FINALLY managed to get some me-time. Me-time meaning time for me, ice cream and my wacom. Result is yet another unfinished speedy thing. Though I have spent too long on it already I will actually try to finish this one, I kinda like them, the fish kids. I blame my lazy pace on lack of practice. To tell you the truth I have been quite busy the last couple weeks. I'm loving the new job and the weekends seem to disappear in a hazy cloud of rum. And, lets not forget my little date with the darling dentist. That was a less pleasant experience. One might even say it was the worst experience ever.

The Roaring New Year

Forgot to upload the invitation to our 1920's themed New Year's eve party. Didn't quite turn out how I wanted to but it did the trick. I think it was the lack of reference for the girl and the fact that I couldn't decide what kind of art deco I wanted. I kinda went for an early 1918 on the dress and hair and then a more 1940-ish style on the font/emblem. I need more focus and limitations when I do stuff. I tend to want to do everything and it ends up... bleeeuuurgh.

The quick ones

Another speed drawing, motif from a recent dream. Yes, in the dream I went out on a purple field of light bulb flowers. I picked some, they glowed quite nicely. The dream ended with me in a cobalt-blue suit and a team of prisoners rescuing a princess from a horrible wedding with the help of her flying horse. And then there was fireworks...

...I'm slowly going mad, aren't I. Oh well.

Work in Progress



Worth mentioning, I know the design of the "fountain" is hideous but seriously, I have no control over my dreams whatsoever! Don't judge me.

Herding Cats


A little Thursday night practice. I need some serious training in environments/lighting and thought I'd start creating a series of drawings based on my dreams. My not so normal, epic-movie, sci-fi, monster-robot and zombie dreams. I'll also try not to spend more than a day doing it so to get up to speed. Next one up I do think I need some more time on. It's... different. Let's just say I am to do some thorough investigation in the anatomy of weasel heads, jumping whales, porcelain and military uniforms.
