...when you realize that after a four year hiatus of sorts, you're going back to school to finish you're art degree. And you need to start drawing again so you don't look like a complete stick figure doodle in class. :P
Yep, I'm trying to get back into the swing. Here's hoping the embarrassment will be kept to a minimum. So, onto the sketches and such.
This is a character (Angela) whose design, especially her hair, has changed and changed. I really need to nail it down. Anyway, this is my playing with Prismacolor markers and getting a feel for them.
Another character (Xander) whose look I can't really peg. Not my best doodle of him but that's because my three year old wanted to "help."
Full body Angela sketch with her electric bo-staff. See, there goes her hair. And a little height chart off to the right for my reference.
Angela again in a more Disney style. Her hair is less poof here.
Angela off model in an action pose. *facepalm* Why yes I do enjoy doodling with a non-photo blue pencil.
This little pen doodle was soo fun! Honestly it started out because my kids were watching Tarzan. I thought Tarzan's nose was cute and decided to draw it and then this lady appeared. No really, just boom and she was in my sketchbook. Sorry for the craptastic scan.
Skyler is another character that is supposed to go along with Xander and Angela in a story that's still stuck in my head. Anyway, he's an artist, clairvoyant, and sleep deprived and a touch odd. He kind of looks like the Mad Hatter here. So still not done with his look but headed in the right direction.
A head doodle that apparently I named Peyton. I think I was proving to myself that I could still draw a human head.
And last, but not least, Stoic the Vast from How to Train Your Dragon. I'm a fan of Phantom of the Opera and of Gerard Butler. So when I found out he played the Phantom and Stoic, I had to give Stoic a mask and a microphone.
I'm working on another project but it's too big for my poor scanner. Maybe when it's done I'll put it up, but for now, all I have to offer are silly little sketches. :)
