Today's (slightly rubbish) portrait.

I never really woke up today.
My brain has been a gooey mushy mess...

Just decided to try out my new Rotring ArtPen (ink cartridge that you can fill with your own ink). Found out it doesn't blend well with watercolour.

Art fail, but I'll post it anyway :D


BnM. Chapter 1 Cover (later progress)

Woop! My cover was accepted by the higher-ups in the company!
Apparently I'm the first artist to do my own book cover, so am feeling very chuffed.

Here's some progress on it. I'm scanning it several times between painting, just to be sure to have a copy if I mess it up.




Also. Slightly strange feeling today as me and my buddy walked along on the street and were recognized as 'the people who're into comics' by a stranger who handed us indy-comic leaflets. We are apparently known faces at forbidden planet.

Should I be happy or scared? XD

Today's portrait.

Didn't have as much time today as the other days.

Reflecting my views on clothes shopping.

Portrait 2.

First full day at Uni after being sick for so long.

Thinking about attempting a 1 year portrait challenge.

... A bit like this fellow from Concept art did: Click me!

One self portrait a day, for a year.

Tried making my first one just now...

BnM. Pondering cover-like images.

Early painting. This is done straight from a sketch, so no lightboxing involved. If I want to take it further, I will lightbox it.

For now, it remains a doodle.

BACK IN ACTION.

Woo!
Here's a little post to say that I'm able to draw again :D

Currently catching up on rough layouts for chapter one of Butterflies and moths.
It's all very sketchy.





Bits of sketch.

Wham! Struck again!

Just as I got well from flu, I was hit by food poisoning on Tuesday afternoon and have been 'out' basically ever since. Hence the lack of sketches.

I'm incredibly frustrated with being ill, but hopefully it will get better soon. :/

Went to wrong lecture, but decided to stay and draw anyway.

Here's two doodles done during a short lecture.




(subconsciously inspired by Joe Kubert's graphic novel 'Yossel')

Oxford Museum TEA-Rex.



I'd be surprised if I was even allowed to enter this as it doesn't show Oxford at all... So it could be ANYWHERE :D

Last picture being worked on for the brief.

At this point, I'm just doing a bit of a piss-take. :D

Oxford Museum.
Based on this image:


It's still in pencil, so it's quite hard to make out.

Should be working, but had to doodle something.

Arelith alt character.



Dissertation tutorial tomorrow. Will I be fed to the wolves or given a pat on the back? I haven't got a clue.
