International Gesture Day 2017

Been doing Quickposes for 4 months now and learned today is International Gesture Day Day! Here are the best of my drawing session. 45 seconds each.

Slowly getting better I suppose.

Painting Dump 2

Some paintings I never had the chance to upload.

Barfday gift for my friend Kirk:

Commission for my friend "Sailor Ember Phantom" or Rachel (if you wanna call her by her slave name) of her one-eyed dog Chickers:

Painting Dump 1

Some studies I suppose.

Narwhal In The Sky

More painting practice!

Thank you chasmdeep for the reference image.

Girl And Her Robot

I think I discovered something beautiful.

Thank you little-one-girl for the reference image.

Some Quick Gestures

Been drawing some gestures and figure studies on my own when I can't sleep. These are done with a drawing tablet.

 

 Haven't really had fun practicing in a while.

Dog Sketches 1

Some dog sketches, yo.

Haven't drawn animals since 2011. I'm hoping the anatomy isn't too bad. Forgive me, Tina!

Can't Hide From Her

Made a painting of some fat ugly girl as an inside joke for my friends, but ended up making some silly movie as well using the limited After Effects and Premiere knowledge I had. Still learning!

Here's an edit of the original "faux vector" I made jokingly in 2010:

And then here's the vector trace I made in Illustrator while learning the program. And yes, that's her name btw:

And then my painting. Omg, I laughed:

And finally the "short film" which was more an experiment with both After Effects and Premiere:

I had my fun. Haha.

The Bomb Challenge: Complete

Still learning how to use Flash. Animation is pretty novice, but I'm starting to understand how to move the components individually.

Quick desert painting to use for the background.

For some reason Flash wouldn't export a 1200x675 pixel .mov file correctly by squishing it on its sides, so I ended up stretching it in After Effects. Still learning, yo!

The Bomb Challenge

Went to the CSUF PMC event called The Bomb in which the goal is to make a bomb animation move across the page and not blow up during the 72-hour animation marathon... or something like that. I actually attempted it this year (and I've been going since 2009) so I can practice Illustrator and Flash.

Simple colors, although I might change it later.

Andddddd... a ridiculously simplistic motion tween. Need to learn how to animation individual components independently.

Bird Painting

Been practicing digital painting. Never really had much instruction in school, so it's pretty different.

Wish I took more painting classes. Thank you emilie-stock for the reference image.
