First picture for 2012 and it’s… this. I like how it came out, but there’s a lot I could have drawn better. Anyway, it was mainly something I drew so I could use it to replace the Christmas-themed picture I was still using on facebook/twitter.
Which looked like this by the way.
To uh, explain. I thought drawing a chibi would help me out of my art block (maybe) since they’re quick and easy to draw. My Japanese friend from twitter, Rippy, has a picture of a squid in her display picture at the moment so drawing inspiration from that (https://twitter.com/#!/1989_rippy) I decided to draw her with said squid, and it kind of went from there.
><; I think my lack of practice is most evident in the lineart. Such terrible lineart…
Uh, on a more positive note, I’ve started uploading singing to my tumblr as of today :’D Feel free to take a listen if you’re interested! I’ll be uploading rough covers of VOCALOID songs as often as time permits ^^; http://hikarino.tumblr.com/
Hi guys >_<; Maybe I’m just drained after Uni followed by putting in an application for the JET program all in a rush one after another, but I’m rather uninspired at the moment. Actually I feel a little depressed;; Or like now that Uni is over my life is going to have no meaning. I’m sure that will pass. I hope. But I digress. Does anyone have advice for getting some inspiration back/getting back into drawing? Maybe I should go buy a Ghibli art book or something…
First art post in an age :’D This is also up over on deviantART, but it’s the exact same image on both ends (I usually put larger images over here, but it’s hot and I’m kind of sleepy at the moment :’D)
This is my half of a trade from the beginning of the year, which I have finally completed! I started it in July, and didn’t look at it again until today when I decided to finish it. There’s a lot that could be improved on, but after staring at the grass for too long I wasn’t sure what was what anymore :’D Still, I’d like to think it’s an improvement on my previous attempt at grass.
I haven’t drawn much this year >_< I’ve done a few things for Uni here and there that I’ll share another day, but I’m out of practice none-the-less and quite unhappy with this. Here’s to re-finding my skills.
Thank you for your patience, Bonn! ><
I got to design a logo for myself for one of my assignments :D I am pretty happy with it and can’t wait to incorporate it into all the places I go on (deviantART etc), but that will have to wait until the end of the year. Anyway! >< One of the reasons I’m posting this is because I would like feedback on the tagline ;~; Panda, Bonnie, or anyone else should happen to come across this post in the next few days, what do you think? D’: Does it represent my art/me okay? What kind of tagline would you give me?
Ahaha, first post in three and a half months. Excuses for that will come later (basically, Uni got busy and to top it all off I got a part time job which became practically full-time work within two weeks). Anyway! I just finished Uni on Friday night, and yesterday the wonderful Bonnie (bonxy@deviantART) said she had made an iScribble account and wanted to draw with me tonight. It was definitely a great way to finally wind down after the end-of-semester stress, which is good, because I hadn’t had a chance to yet.
Anyway! I’ve been meaning to rewatch Kiki’s Delivery Service, so it was on my mind, so I drew a Kiki. Then Bonn turned the girl she was drawing into Kiki. It’s neat seeing the differences in our styles next to each other like this ^^ I can’t wait to watch the movie again now.
Uh, so, yeah… I’m 20 as of today. Weird. On a side note, you know you’re in an art block when a speed paint of a present is beyond your abilities. Although I was experimenting with the mixer brush. Anyone who can use that tool to some level of decency has my respect.
First day back at Uni today… I’m excited, scared and, above all, tired. Anyway, our 3D lecture today made me want to draw a sock puppet, so there you go.
In other news, I got art block a few days before the end of the holidays. Terrible timing considering I wanted to get my half of a trade done before they ended T_T To the tradee, I hope your first day back was good! ;~; (and I’m sorry.)
Chibi!Gemma and her CGI tomato, Pesto. I forget how fun it is drawing cute things.
Heeello, here’s the only finished piece for the day. Ramblings under the cut.
