My sister designed this character. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus It's been awhile since I've made any animation. I finished an exercise I was working on last year. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Another torch fire cycle. This one is even better! npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Another assignment completed. This one turned out really well! npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Your artistic skill is incredible. Seeing something that takes real skill to make is always inspiring. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Finished another exercise. Taking the time to observe what is happening is important. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus That is almost unbelievable. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I would look into a Nikon D40. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I found this really cool website, Wickeditor.com. So I made this random stick figure animation. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I'm not sure. I think water just distorts the image. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I wanted to try painting the background seen through the beads of water. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Another exercise. 3 Hours. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus What is Apple Glass? npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Starting level two of learning water effects. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Finished off another dust exercise! I can't stop watching this, it turned out so cool! npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus A little practice piece. This rig is so much fun to use! npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I've been busy lately, with animation as well as other things. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Number 10/10! npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I like the faces in the last image. Amazing work. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Number nine of ten. I wasn't very careful on this one. 🙁 npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus It turns out measuring proportions is very useful. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus ...I think the thorax is too long. Oh well, it's not about proportions anyway. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus https://cdn.satellite.earth/449eb81c6beded6b25e07b0808546c2f97e84e20e195b7297f6c8f30eb4291a1.png npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Blech. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus This was more difficult than the others. It was hard to see the shape of the body under all the hair. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I wish there was a film in this style. It's beautiful. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus https://cdn.satellite.earth/5ebe4095b563c3ec5f5781eafd16c82cf35f4a97162a30bf471403e138d9e180.png npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Number five of ten. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus My node is down at the moment. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I usually start with an animation exercise and put my own spin on it. Or there is a character I want to animate and I think of some action they could do. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Thanks. I have the Bionicle animation fully rendered. It's in one of my previous posts. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Thank you. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus It's probably my node again. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I finally put together a demo reel! I'll work on my portfolio next. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Two more pages. Four done, six to go. Slowly working my way through Draw A Box. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Hooray! I finished the Bionicle animation! npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus These are absolutely amazing! You captured so much detail on such a small page. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Just drawing random stuff that I think of. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Trying to continue Draw a Box. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Yep. It's lighter, faster and cheaper than other options I've found. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Character rig test. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus https://cdn.satellite.earth/962aefc5772db597e8b2a30d28d90e860ef6503204067d7d0f1d4be4bad6778c.png npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I had to move my node. It should be working now. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Finally finished this. I forgot why I made it. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Working my way through another lesson. I had a load of fun making these. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Thanks. I'll check it out. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Character design for a face I drew. I've been designing him on and off since April. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Two days late but... better late than never! npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I'm glad you posted this and not just the good stuff. Seeing someone else's attempts is refreshing and inspiring. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus In the first one the smoke moves at the same speed from bottom to top. The smoke should slow as it reaches the top. So I made another on with that in mind. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus This took much longer to make than I anticipated. A little over 4 hours. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Things I drew in the past few days. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Does this look better? npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Thanks. I'm always happy to get feedback. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Wow this looks awesome! Thank you. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Doing a animation exercise. Character expression change. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Thank you. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Flour sack exercise. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus An observational drawing. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I'm using Krita. And blender when I need a 3D model. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus https://cdn.satellite.earth/c6621df801d402a3a758f2f36103c7701c33bba03d10e8fd12af3164cc00f339.gif npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Thank you. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Working out how to draw this character from any angle. https://cdn.satellite.earth/899fef88961e315e692633beb494681c97100263c620152c1af9f3f3b8c3379a.png npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I agree. Although I can draw, replicating a characters face is still difficult. Or any object for that matter. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus https://cdn.satellite.earth/32f839051e74a5865c775c9db6c34d3d160b06c75a572aac6e99a2540fa51d0b.jpg npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Just being frugal. 😉 npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Sketchbook stuff. Trying to figure out how to draw a cartoon face. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus An interesting little plant I saw yesterday. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I love the colors! And I like how there's a building in the foreground. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus https://cdn.satellite.earth/c375e80b610d9c16758bb02a85c7563cccfbe917419e0d5c714d85b1805a8d5e.png npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus What?

Some of these are Draw A Box exercises. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus My best yet. 😁 npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus A few illustrations for a personal project. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus It is part of a free curriculum called Draw A Box which teaches the foundations of "how to draw". It does this by teaching mark making, spacial reasoning and construction. It does not teach specifics but will, as I said, lay the foundation so one can make sense of all the other resources out there. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus https://cdn.satellite.earth/4cc812c433c4eeeb855b2eae74ca2956ac40e151b55a63a1cd7736ec0b8374e7.jpg npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus perhaps, although it wasn't BAD logistics. It was that the logistics HAD to work out the way they did. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Because of logistics. But I was able to use someone else's laptop to check my email once a day. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus 😄 npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Having 10 days without internet access is wonderful! npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Draw a box grind page 1. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Kinda brain dead and slightly sick today. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus We had ten to twelve inches of snow a few days ago. That's a lot for where I live. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I drew this from memory. They're just standing there because I asked them to wait. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Just some practice. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I like the depth in this picture and especially the blue in the background. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus The photo said onion soup but it must have been a weird recipe. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Ahh, now I see it. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus What did you use for that picture? It's not watercolor. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Yep. Doing value study beforehand is the way to go. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus I have difficulty believing these are real places. npub1efmvw7pn636yvq5sguktwtsts2235a458kw79r3p06kt3euyc49sh926g3 dingus Very skewed but I think I got the values right.
