NC Sketchbook Dump
Just got back from a week in North Carolina. I drew 12 hours a day, twice in a row. Feel REAL good about it. I’m gonna ride this wave- draw until I’m dead.
the crystal tyrant! His heart is a pink gorilla skull.
Might make that last one a stamp.
Airport doodles
The storms in Orlando were so bad that my plane had to land in Tampa and wait it out. The clouds looked like mud.
Movie Sketches and Sketchbook Dump
Trying to get myself back into the drawing game this summer. I’ve been drawing movie stills from this website cinemosaic. Been Screwing around with some color tests too. Conceptually, I kind of hate the idea of adding film effects to my digital animations. But I keep doing it:
These top two drawings are from a movie called Sword of Doom. The next two are from Kwaidan and Jigoku. Cinemosaic’s whole front page was nothing but Japanese Samurai/horror movies. Which is better than the second page of weird British stuff I didn’t really wanna draw.
Bill Duke has been on my to-draw list for fucking months. Drew this from Predator:
Then finally there is some miscellaneous stuff. Some Wendigo drawings and a 2 more style-boards I made today.
I feel like I got my chops back. Now I’m going to start tackling my to-draw list in earnest. I LOVE SUMMER TIME.
SummaTime Walk-cycle
It is unbelievable what my mom has lying around. I was trying to find a way to shoot these frames I drew, and she whipped out a mini copy-stand and lamp out of no where. My room is an exciting mess:
This summer my other classmates and me are HOPEFULLY gonna do some sort of exquisite corpse walk-cycle project. One person draws a walk-cycle, gives the last frame to the next, and that person morphs it into whatever they want, and makes a walk cycle. And so one. Forever. I got it started last night:
I’m re-doing the crane-headed walk cycle from last fall. I done made it better.
Mini-update
A mini-update so you don’t think I’m dead: My parents came to visit and I had an awesome few days checking out LA with them. But it also meant taking about 5 days off production. I’m back at it now, though, and ready to destroy.
All of this animating is fun, but it’s not satisfying my urge to draw, so all of my notes are starting to look like this:
