hello. this is an illo i made for this week's topic on Illustration Friday. it's the first time i'm participating, in fact. I can't say I'm entirely happy with this piece, but it was really important to me that i finish it, and i have.
i hope to do more in the future.
Here are a few shots from the Visual Aids "Postcards from the Edge" preview show. It was on January 8, 2010.
I got this in the mail for the show this afternoon.
There's still time to submit something.- If you want to drop off the card by hand ;).
Hey, everybody. I finally finished the perspective shot on the comic book page posted in September. I would love some input as to whether it looks okay, or could be improved upon.
Thanks!
THESE ARE THE FINAL TWO BOOKMARKS (FRONT AND BACK) I'M MAKING FOR FRIENDS. THE LAST TOOK ME SO LONG BECAUSE I HAD RUN OUT OF THE WATERCOLOR PIECES, AND WASN'T SURE HOW TO GO ABOUT IT. IT'S I MADE OF LAYERED SPECIALTY PAPERS.
SO, THIS IS THE PAGE THAT COMES BEFORE THE PAGE I WAS WORKING ON LAST WEEK. IT'S PAGE 3. I STILL HAVE TO DO THE PERSPECTIVE SHOT OF THE BUILDING IN THE SECOND PANEL, AND THEN THE PENCILING STAGE OF THIS PAGE WILL BE COMPLETED.
HI, EVERYBODY,
I STARTED TO SKETCH AROUND ON THIS IMAGE THIS MORNING. IT'S PAGE 4 OF A COLLABORATIVE COMIC BOOK PROJECT I'VE BEEN INVOLVED WITH FOR QUITE SOME TIME. I WOULD ACTUALLY REALLY BENEFIT FROM A GATHERING. I COULD USE HELP WITH SOME OF THE POSES, THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO GET IN A MIRROR (OVER THE SHOULDER, FROM ABOVE, ETC.) IS ANYONE GAME?
THESE ARE FROM TODAY'S VISIT TO SPRING STREET STUDIO'S LIFE DRAWING SESSION. THEY ARE:
-2 MINUTE GESTURES (i think)
-20 MINUTE POSE
-40 MINUTE POSE (taken in two 20-minute sittings)
RESPECTIVELY.
GRAPHITE PENCIL AND GRAPHITE STICK.
I MET UP WITH PATRICK YESTERDAY FOR SPRING STREET STUDIO'S 1;00pm SESSION. HERE ARE SOME OF THE BETTER SKETCHES FROM THE SESSION:
I WAS BORED ONE EVENING... I HOPE TO GO BACK AND FINISH IT ONE OF THESE MORNINGS.
HI, EVERYBODY!
MY FRIEND SENT ME A LINK TO THE FOLLOWING:

AS SHE PUT IT, "Its a handy little design exercise for people who want to stretch their muscles of creativity or practice Photoshopping or make-believe they are a designer for a day."
ENJOY : )
Hi! Just in keeping with what I've been up too... a couple of weeks ago, I decided, though I love them all, I had way too many t-shirts. (over 40!) One of my favorites that had passed it's prime, was an old fan T of Tank Girl that I'm made while in collage with an iron-on transfer. I didn't really want to trash it, but it had gotten too dingy to keep. So I decided to make a replacement.
I ordered a blank T shirt from Hanes.com. Then, I scanned in a new image from one of the TG books I have, cut out the back ground, filled in the missing pieces of the image that'd been covered with word balloons using Photoshop. It was printed onto an old transfer sheet I had around. Man! It took forever to peel that thing off of it's backing.
But it's survived its first wash. Here are the results:
Old T: 
New T: 
I really like the new image, too.
