So far in the classes, we've done a little of the basics to start us off. We created Phenakistiscopes, mine of which features a character I helped name. Say hello to Curtis Fishfinger:
At a later date we looked at taking inspiration from life, such as creating a character from a walnut. Here's good ol' Nutboy, first as his lined variation, then with colour, then in a particular pose.
I like the lining in the colourless piece, the variation of thickness gives it a nicer style.
I feel the colours aren't the best, and the actual colouring isn't great either, but I had limited colours at hand and I am very out of practice with traditional colouring.
Aside from all that, we also looked at drawing form and constructing the human shape from lines of action to express emotion through movement rather than realism (very animation type stuff). Here's some of the better stuff I did, forgive the poor camera quality:
I have never been that great at drawing people (aside from hands) but I think the sketch vibe each drawing has made me more confident to try more so they came out better.
Can't wait to start the first proper project where I get to make some characters M O V E
