Today is Remembrance day, to commemorate when the Great War ended.
Im trying to figure out how to mix illustration with surrounding enviroment. It works well in real life, but its much harder trying then to take the final result and turn it back into something 2D.
with suggestions and help I’ll work it out though.
anyway, thought [...]

So this is the more interesting thing Im working on, but still need to work on it/play around with it more. Basically I want to bring two things I enjoy together, rather then keeping them apart, so Im mixing illustration and how it interacts with the surrounding enviroment. Expect many experiments! ^_^
This is based on [...]

More stuff. TBH Im working on something much more interesting (to me). But after much hard work I made a stupid camera mistake and have to work on it some more. I was excited about putting it on here too, sucks =_=
The first and last image was an experiment with my style, I still have [...]

Not much to say ’bout this. Just want to practice making images that stand out in a poster sort of sense (so that my comics can be more sellable to audience XD) As I’ve figured before, using story and characters seems to make it easier to create compositions…
Thank you for your comment, Nicola ^_^

I think when I do more on this project I’ll next try natural medium rather then computer colouring…
Im sorry [...]

Today in Uni I messed around with very water ink. Its a great way to do something quickly but make an effective image, I highly reccomend it XD
This second image unusually spontaneus for me. When I was letting the first image dry, ink splattered onto a table. I then smushed an old peice of paper [...]

QUESTIONS!
1. Is it only me who cant see my images on the front page when I post them, or can no one see them? Am I posting something in the wrong way?
2. Perhaps I’ve missed a post or something, but does Willie set themes that we can draw towards, or something like that? I think [...]

Today we were watching Faulty Towers, and I doodled Basil Faulty, I tried to capture his ‘essence’!
Yesyterday I sketched out a proper version of my ‘death of gonzo’ idea. I took some reference from some nice photos I have of hippies in the 60s, they are flying out of his head, it looks a bit [...]

Just some doodles today, Im experimenting with how I can substain my own style of drawing with various materials. I’ve always found a black brush pen works well in bringing out curves and exagerated lines, but I dont want to only use a brush pen all the time, and I worry my style of drawing [...]

Recently they had that tv series about the Pre Raphaelite Brotherhood, consequently yesterday I took out a huge dusty book on them from my Mums bookshelf (I saw some old photos, they looked identical to how they did in the drama XD) and became inspired! I decided to try do an image in the style [...]
