Small addition

I am really not sure how long I spent on each project here, I should probably note the time when I start and finish, though a lot of the projects I know I spent more than the allotted hours for (robot) I am less happy with than ones I know I did in a rush the night before.

Last bit

These are just a couple of little pieces I did a while back, unfortunately I haven't finished them but I thought it was worth putting them up. I've been saying for a while that I needed to study expressions, so I decided to start an expressions sheet, though I still need to work a lot more on this.

The second piece is just heading back to my life drawing roots to get in touch with basic lighting and anatomy, I started with the line art, followed by shadow and then light.

Finally.

So I finally got around to this tutorial, it was very interesting (though the start of it was similar to what I've picked up through life drawing in the past, the build up of light and shade etc.)

 The face on my drawing is a little off from the original, but I squashed everything slimmer and then warped the face until I could get it as close as I could. I found the tutorial a little hard to follow just because it was so drawn out, I also couldn't see things like brush opacity as the toolbar was cut off the top of the screen for some reason.

The gradual build up works very nicely, everything blends together. I'll have to try to use it more in the future to avoid a cut/collage appearance.

AGH

I barely have time to breathe animating this thing for the 14th so unfortunately I haven't been able to complete the painting Steve wanted me to try duplicate, I only have the background for it and I didn't think a blue square was worth posting, so instead I'm posting up some quick sketches I did between animating.

The purple thing is completely unreferenced but the second drawing is based off my fat pet rat, Vegeta. Only the head is referenced, the rest is just drawn in the shape of a pear  with feet...because he's a very pear shaped rat.
