Eve and Joe

After a long weekend I figure today could do with two pots! Today is the the first really nice day of the spring, and while Eve and Joe studied math in the grass I, of course, drew away happily in the sunshine :) It's so good to see spring moving back and people looking classy in their sunglasses

Thumbnail Backgrounds

In our animation class we were assigned to do 12 thumbnails of backgrounds and then take one to a finish! After doing loads of film architectural research and about 40 thumbnail sketches from reference I took my 12 favorite designs and added a bit of my own style. Sorry this pencil is light, I wanted to leave these ones open for change. The top row second from the right I am taking to a finish, so that will be coming up on the blog soon!

Marker Gestures

Sorry for missing a day, I've been really busy with some fun 2D stuff which will be coming later! I've never done figure sketches before with my grayscale markers, but I love it and was really happy with the results! The willing model is Terence, an excellent friend and superb artist who will also be applying to the animation program at the end of the spring.
