Weekly Wrap-Up 4-17-16

It’s been a minute since my last post. The change of seasons brought on a sinus infection which changed over to cold/flu fun stuff. Prior to all of that I upgraded to the large iPad Pro/with Apple Pencil.

It’s taken a little while to get a decent workflow going forward. I still prefer to do quick thumbnails on paper prior. I am a huge fan of Procreate/ MediBang Paint and Autodesk SketchBook. For now Procreate is my default drawing app mainly because I created a thick illustration brush that imitates how I like to ink on paper. Although with Autodesk SketchBook the pencil lines feel 1:1 with real paper.

I still have some process steps to figure out. Below are my Procreate sketches that I don’t think are completely embarrassingly bad. It will be fun to look at these months/years down the road.

Getting a bit busy for a moment. Working on some outside work hopefully I will show later down the road. In the meanwhile still trying to do a little something everyday or every other if time permits.

Trying to work on this phase of creating more original character work minus the Ash illustration. The Jake Parker video channel series has really inspired me to do more work that I can say is my own.

Still doing some style experiments with Clip Paint Studio. Also getting gloves for the Cintiq screen definitely improved the smooth motions on the screen.

Weekly Wrap-up 05-04-15

I have been busy the last two weeks so this post is a bit of a catch up. The reason for all the Avengers stuff is because my daily practice site Sketch Dailies did an all Avengers daily topic posting. Along with that a couple of reference sketches.

Weekly Wrap-up 03-15-15

I didn’t do a lot of sketches, busy work week. I did manage to zone out for a bit this weekend and fully recover from this nagging cold and do some just because sketches. After a quick marathon session of Steven Universe I definitely felt inspired to do some characters from the show. The others are nightly sketches that I try to do on a consistent pattern for Sketch Dailies.

Sketch dumps 03-01-15

Some of the stuff I drew last week. Working on some animal concepts for an illustration project, listened to Kanye’s “Wolves” on repeat numerous times and a little sketch to commemorate the Johnny Karate episode of Parks and Rec. it was soooooooo good.

Chinese New Year 02-19-2015

Every couple of days a week I try to do a sketch with the topic taken from Sketch Dailies. The theme today was Chinese New Year, the year of the goat/sheep. It’s fun for me sometimes depart from my usual style and try something with the look and feel of that region. I looked a number of Chinese watercolor paintings and tried to emulate the thick black brush line look.
