I wanted to do another post to the school girl thread over at the illustrationboard because it has become kinda AWEsome. But I also wanted to do some illustration friday theme oritented work.
This will be a combo.
So this guy Xav (who is an awesome illustrator) posted a new thread on school girls. Growing up in a Catholic school for eight years i had to contribute. I really like the 2-D hop scotch squares. I like that 2-d 3-d play. I did another variation with a different mouth and slightly different eyes maybe I’ll post it.
So i posted my other lena sketch, pin-up, moji whatever on the drawing board and kinda got called out on not drawing hands and feet. It was a half fair comment. So i updated with a new one but she looked too sad. Plus i saw some of the pics from the sketchy session and she wasnt wearing blue at all. Lame. So here is an update to an update to an update.
So I love the site OObject. And they have a series on flying helmets. I was inspired by the RFC uniforms and gear. Vintage, Steam punk always wanted to dabble in it.
Next Moji I suppose.
I went to the Baltimore Dr. Sketchy’s a few weeks ago and this week I went back to MICA for a life drawing session. Figure drawing kick i guess. Obsession du jour.
It was funny that I haven’t been back to MICA in years much less a life drawing class and the model turns out to be a guy I’ve drawn a million times (very lanky and a good model). Somethings never change I guess.
I made this pinup moji based on some figure drawing at Dr. Sketchys Baltimore. This outfit was from the quick poses but was so sassy I wanted to make it a moji.
There is a new Sheriff in town. And he’s a drunk.
Saw this great video for the Department of Eagles song “No One Does It Like You” I did this quick drawing of one of the dancer soldiers.
I really like the costumes that Marcel Dzama created. The whole think has a live action Spirited Away type feel but set in a weird Goya like setting.
Here is my take on poise. I think i got a little off topic, but I was VERY influenced by a particular style of Ian Kim and I became more interested in the style rather thanĀ the topic (shrug).
