Moving!

To tumblr! Sorry guys, it was bound to happen.

I'm still leaving all my old posts here and if there's anyone who has portfolio questions (when that time rolls around) don't be afraid to send me a note on dA or a tumblr ask :)

Shitay Metaphors

2nd year Core Concepts class was 50% narrative illustration and 50% metaphorical illustration. I'm much better at narrative... and rather mediocre at metaphor. It's a really big learning curve, and really important to know for sure, but not that enjoyable (for me at least).

Based on "work & play"

A mock editorial illustration talking about Emotional intelligence and the 5 different areas of it

After Effects AKA I'm not an animator

My final 'animation' for my Electronic Media class. I am a terrible animator and anyone who can makes things move well by drawings gets 100% of my respect. It's a totally different way of thinking.

Despite that I had a lot of fun putting the whole thing together, After Effects is a really neat program. 

(Didn't have fun animating though fyi)

And here's the cat (created in Illustrator and photoshop). I really like the cat. Actually the 3D stuff in Illustrator is nifty when you use it to create stupid characters.

3D School Stuff

First 2013 post one month in hell ya! I've been doing art just haven't posted too much :S

So far in electronic media we've been exploring 3D effects whether that's an illusion of space or physical depth (is that how you'd phrase it?). I like how school is slowly morphing into what I want to do versus last year where I felt like I had to do something completely different? It's more fun right now :P

First project is old school 3D.

Get your glasses (if you have any, I didn't and I winged it).

Illustrator 3D featuring me! And my future orange dog.

Beauty.

The initial concept. Also a beauty.

Sketchbook

Attractive

When you're friends tell you peeps think you look nice when you don't look good at all/ never really thought about it.

Sketchbook

School's finally out meaning relaxation and lots of sketching to do. I was really lucky this semester to have two especially inspirational teachers who really made me push my work and my technique. 

Also this break I want to do Sachin Teng's 30 day drawing challenge which will take me more than 30 days guaranteed but ah well.
