CHRIST ALMIGHTY

Portfolio reviews on FREAKING WEDNESDAY I'm suddenly nervous as all hell. I was so excited today, now I just want to die. Or maybe I'm just nervous about my extra special early midterm on Thursday. Either way, I think they're both going to go poorly.
I was gonna go nap and instead I'm freaking out. Seriously, I think I just worked myself up into a frenzy. And then there's internships on top of that which I haven't even DONE yet fffffffffffffff

Here are some houses. I like to draw houses when there's nothing else to draw.

Sorry you DA fellows have to see this so many times.

Figure Drawing

FIGURE DRAWING IS SO MUCH FUN
Spent 3 hours in open figure drawing with my computer, must remember to do this more often.
These are all 3-15 minute poses.

Muhndae

I did two things this weekend:

The first one is just a sketch I colored for myself. The second one is a drawing for my little friend who was in the hospital recently for an operation. Pretty serious stuff.

So blah blah blah learned to gradient and make legitimate selections lalalala okay.

Nothing else to say, really.

Freaking tsunamis, man.

Here's a thing

Procrastinating

Great semester so far

Lots of work being made

Nervous about dem internships

Should have 2 still-lifes done by the morning

Don't think so. (Just kidding, they'll be done on time.)

Here's what I did just now with Photoshop brushes I made.

Fanart and a sketch and doodles

Right now, this blog and tumblr are of equal posting value-- in that I don't use either of them too frequently.

I think I should give up tumblr altogether. It just seems like the last name in intellectual property, you know?

SO! I just 'finished' Nier with my friend, and it was one of the m

ost unfufilling experiences ever.

You know, in games one generally feels like they're working tow

ards a goal. Uh... maybe that should be taken in to consideration, Cavia.

And now we're playing Secret of Monkey Island. Very charming and funny game. If it were a guy, I would date it.

Guybrush is a fantastic character.

Also, I'm coloring my sketches, finally! Yaaaay!

Also also I was totally decadent and went out and bought a massive 22" screen for my computer. It's absolutely gorgeous. And I am filled with guilt. But this is something that was done on a screen, so I feel less bad.

Home for the weekend

I don't think being home is good for me. Fills me with anxiety, and I get angry and frustrated very easily. Despite the fact that I always want to be home when I'm at school.

Computer will soon have 8 gigs of RAM. DEAR GOD.

Here, have two doodles. I'm much happier with the second one than the first.

I've been watching Porco Rosso over and over and over and over and I just can't get enough of it.

Also I just bricked my mom's brand new computer monitor. Whoops. :(

Shit I have to memorize a new year

HEY WHAT 2011

Wintersession is just. The most unhealthy thing ever conceived.

I'm stuck in another artistic rut, but the problem is that there's nothing to push me through it. I'm just kinda drifting, playing games and bar

ely doodling. I need to start a new project.

It's just impossible to get motivated in this weather.

This isn't new, but I had to post an image.

Oh and also a SNEEK PEEK of this fucking drawing that I've been desperately trying to color for a couple months now. I just kind of like these characters.

RESTLESS

I'm so ready to leave school and get a job. Well, maybe not ready artistically, but there's nothing I want to do more than go out and work. I'm making lists of game companies I want to apply to and I'm incredibly nervous and excited at the same time.
I'm sitting here with assignments piling up and just LONGING to be done with them so I can just build up a portfolio.
I'm a little conflicted, because I don't quite know which would be better for me: working on things that I like-- things that will make my portfolio better, or working on what I'm supposed to work on-- things that I really have no interest in but will make my grades better. I have a lot of trouble balancing things that use TIME, so it's very much one way or the other.
Also I need a bigger desk, dammit.

Also also: I'm listening to the Scott Pilgrim soundtrack, wishing it would come out on DVD already. The more I think about it, the more I realize that I loved that movie and how much it resonated with me. It's like: if there ever was a movie I could use to show my kids a snapshot of our generation's adolescence, Scott Pilgrim fits it to a T.

Also also also: I'm just going to keep a 'New Post' page on my screen every day. My head is completely full of things to say, and then my the time I sit down to write it, it's all gone. Guess I have to trick myself into putting things out there.

Also^5: Photoshop CS5 is THE BEST

Here's a new style I'm sort of playing with in my sketch book.

Sketchbloggy

This summer I have hardly had any time to make finished pieces, but I have been working while running my Ghibli art camp thing. I need something to reassure me that I'm doing work. So, I think this is just gonna be my sketchbook blog or summat.

... I'm assuming I haven't posted this same entry already. As far as I know, every post in this blog says the same thing.

Uhmmmmm

SCHOOL OVER

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

NOW I CAN DO THINGS I WANT TO

LIKE SPENDING THE DAY OUTSIDE DRAWING IN 90 DEGREE WEATHER

HERE ARE SOME CHARACTER DOODLES
