Today's work was truncated. I spent the majority of the morning asleep, since I spent most of the night last night preparing my computer, reformatting it and the like. The performance gains have been noticable, but I need to rest so I can take advantage of it. Onward...
Went out to a coffee shop to tackle this blasted Filthwater Crab Illustration once and for all. I was feeling pretty bad about it but managed to reuse the guidelines I plotted for the port hole and other technical details without having to plot the ellipse perspectives again. In general spent today trying to recalibrate my routine and get back on the horse for figure drawing at least. Onward...
Penbee and I drew silly pictures of a Nun and Dracula couple to amuse, delight and cheer ourselves up! I ended up needing to take a more subtractive approach to shading and coloring this - I made this in Leonardo, which does not have a flood fill, magic wand or channel selection tool. Onward...
Streamed myself working on art for 7 hours today, after which point I continued working off stream. My favorite part of working on my character list is making each character's logo! I worked on some sketches as well as a pixel turnaround of my game's protagonist that I haven't gotten the chance to remake in a long time.
I'm not quite happy with the linework on the middle character, so I'll likely give it another pass after I finish actually designing her.
I worked on some character designs for a short game I'll be making for the next little while today. It's about a princess who has to save her family from jerks and bad guys!
I've been dealing with a lot of sickness and frustration as of late, so I revisited an old character design and tried to rethink it for fun. Maybe I'll ressurect some more previously retired designs of mine?
