Some digital paintings

I'm in this tablet drawing class this semester, and so far it's been a definite workout for my digital painting skills... which is good! I need to get better. These are some things I did for class, self portrait and my hands:

I still don't like to do backgrounds but hey. You can't have it all.

Emilio and Emilius

Discovered some things I hadn't uploaded on here, oops. Both of these were gifts for friends, of their original characters, Emilio and Emilius respectively. Funny how that happened.

First one I outlined with sumi ink and then colored in photoshop, second is all photoshop.

Watercolor spam

Okay well, I got this new travel watercolor brush pen majig, and I have to say it has ROCKED MY WORLD. Seriously, who know watercolor was so much fun? It caused me to do a huge amount in a short period of time, here are some (not all, as quantity ≠ quality as we know) :

You might recognize more Castiel and Molotov! With special appearances by Fred, George, and Death.

Anyway, that's all for now, I have some new things but they're not scanned yet. Will get to them soon I promise!

Things I draw on vacation

I went home this past week for Thanksgiving, and instead of doing anything productive with my homework I drew pictures of good looking people.

1. Misha Collins a.k.a. Castiel from Supernatural a.k.a. mr hunky cleft chin man.

2. Iwan Rheon a.k.a. Simon from Misfits, a fairly new British show that I absolutely love

3. COMBO Iwan and Misha! andsomecats!

4. Molotov Cocktease from Venture Bros, one of my favorite characters. Unfortunately when I drew her I didn't have a reference, so I got her costume kind of right, but also kind of wrong. Eh, we can just say she's borrowing Batman's utility belt.

And that's all for now! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

Modern Rockwell

One of our assignments was to modernize a classic Norman Rockwell illustration. Naturally modern = zombies. (the original is called "The Peach Crop") Done with Micron pens and watercolor on illustration board.

3D Movies

For class we had to create an illustration using three onomatopoeias, I had 'zap', 'crunch', and 'slurp'.
This is kind of how I felt watching Avatar.

Done with Micron pens and watercolor on Bristol paper (which is, btw, not good for watercolor :< )

Character Practice

Just needed to give some of my characters some love. Theo is on the left, and the middle two are Elander, he crossdresses to preform a singing act. I don't have a name for the last one, (s?)he popped out of nowhere.
Doing a lot of experimenting with pen and ink, liking how it's turning out mostly!
