Old But It's My Favourite :)

I drew this for my Dad before he went to Saudi Arabia in April last year. I know it's a bit old for this blog, but I really love it, and it's probably the best thing I've ever done XD done on A2 square watercolour paper with a range of pencils and coloured pencil. Took 3 days lol

Commission for Nero

I was sketching one of my Gackt pictures in work one Sunday and a regular customer came in and saw, and asked me to draw a picture of his girlfriend for her birthday. He gave me the blurriest passport-sized photo in the world lol but this is what I ended up with - 3/4 hours on A3 watercolour paper (hence the canvas texture: that's the paper, not a photoshop add lol) with a 2H and 3B. It's ok, but if I'd had a clearer picture I feel I could have done much better. Next time :D (he's asked me to do an A3 family portrait....oh dear lol)

Gackt :)

Here are two sketches I did of my biggest love - Gackt - :P both done on A4 paper with a 2H and 3B pencil. Took about 3 hours each, minus random scribblings in work XD Pretty pleased with them, but lots to improve on, though I enjoy it so that's ok :D

Frankenstein's Cat

Our second week of Advanced Tech was about learning to successfully replicate an existing background from a children's series called Frankenstein's Cat. We had to produce a day version and a night version, though I did a few variations of the night one. I really enjoyed this project, and really like the result, but it wasn't exactly hard as it was just copying. Still, I learnt so much about photoshop and using my wacom that I thought it was a really good week :)

Background Project

So our first Advanced Tech project was to design and colour a background. This is what I eventually came up with. It was my first time using photoshop to colour and texture like this, so I'm quite happy but know I've a long way to go ^_^

So yeah, jumping on the bandwagon :)

Seeing as how most people on the course are starting to set one of these up for themselves and they artiness, I figured I'd join in and have one of my own. How it differs from DeviantArt, I'm not sure, but it does seem good and quite posh :) So I'll be putting up my arts as I make them during Uni, and any commisions or side projects I end up doing in the mean time ^_^ Hope you like, and please feel free to critique or leave any feedback if you feel like being kind enough or have the time to spare :D I'll also be putting up any work, artists or general other stuff that inspires me along the way, whether I find it on the net or scan it in from all the books I keep buying :P

Hope you enjoy ^_^ (It'll probably take me forever to update this by the way, so sorry in advance lol)
