Me!

Image
Nothing to really post today. It was one of those days where you know you did do something, but can't remember what it was. Been really warm here; the sun is shining and its not even cold when the wind blows. Can go outside with a long-sleeved shirt on and be perfectly fine. Tomorrow of course, it will probably snow like it did 2 weeks ago: View out of the bathroom window And a picture of me with my short hair and our messy room (I have tried to keep it clean I really have). I look really tired, I was up reading until 3:30 finishing a book. Which really turned out to be not that good of a book. :/ Oh well, hopefully the next one is better, or I don't think I will finish the series. Because really how much trouble can 2 people get into before it starts to get boring? *edit* I guess the series goes on for another 5 books if I manage to finish this one, yeah probably not going to get that far. One can hope though :)

Lion Eyes

Image
Worked on colouring the sketch from yesterday after I copied it onto different paper. The eyes are a little more yellow in person, not so dark orange. Lots of work to be done.

Website Troubles

So my site isn't working right now, so until I can get a hold of someone who can help it's going to be broken. *edit* John says the server is down, hopefully get it all figured out when he gets home

Evil Kitty

Image
The cat in a tree drawing wasn't going the way I wanted, so I decided to work on something else. 20 minutes later horribly proportioned lions (bad patch job in photoshop). Roughly11 by 15 inches The smaller one looks alright, but the bigger looks really short and thin in the face. I really need to sketch more. lol I will try to colour it, fill out the face a bit and try to correct the little anatomy errors. I'm not going for realism, I end up getting bored trying to get every little hair.

Anyone Lose Anything?

I kept meaning to post this but kept forgetting. Very strange (link is from the bbc news site and doesn't have anything gross or offensive) Has to be some kind of dare. Thats the only thing I can think of. I love the look on the guy's face holding the evidence. I really hate it when I want to draw, go to draw and my hand acts up, GGRRRR! So no art today, hopefully tomorrow. :)

Stuck in a Tree WIP (floating head syndrome)

Image
Only spent about 40 minutes on this today, so not much to see. Its a start though. Just laid down the basic colours on the head which is just over an inch square in size, still need to fix the ears. I actually like how simple this looks, the colours are not so muddy in person. Its a little awkward right now with the head looking too big for the body that is there, but crossing my fingers that when it is done it looks good. Supposed to be a leopard in a tree, but it looks more like a mountain lion so I am going to refrain from the spots until it is almost complete. If I keep up the pace on this, it might be done tomorrow. *crosses fingers and toes* This will probably be the only work in progress shot though. I don't want to risk taking the paper on and off the board. I can just imagine the amount of cursing coming out of my mouth if I ripped it. Technorati tags:: Art , Coloured pencil , Colored pencil

Template Changes

In between trying to draw another sleeping creature, I'm going to try and mess around with the layout here. Just a heads up if things start to look a little funny. Also going to go back and use the blogger labeling system for past posts. Might make it easier for me to find certain entries when needed. So hopefully art later :) *edit* Got the labels done, now to draw *edit #2* Changed some of the layout, but I'm not sure what I think of the white. Might change it. Still want to mess with the template and add more colour. Looks really plain right now
