I’m just about finished with this guy, but it’s already after 9PM and I’ve been working on him for a couple hours. Going to post it as “work in progress” and finish it up tomorrow! He’s looking great, eh? I experimented a bit on the horn there and it turned out pretty good actually. We’ll see how it looks when I do the rest of the horns.

Something I’ve wanted to do for a few weeks now is most likely going to be my next project. Classic video game start screens. Not sure what I’m going to do with it as of yet, but I want to do something interesting. Not just simply look at a picture of a video game screen and copy it. Perhaps I’ll do it on real paper and draw each pixel. Maybe zoom in on the image a bunch so it’s tough to even tell what it is, then draw that in my own way. With lots of colored squares. No idea! Just something I’ve been wanting to try. Should be fun.

Hope everyone is having a terrific weekend.

Today I had trouble deciding whether I would draw on paper, or go back to digital. I eventually chose to try digital once I figured out a way to actually get comfortable. As my computer/tablet setup isn’t so great right now. As long as I’m not sitting here for hours on end, hunched over my computer, then I’m more or less fine.

I think it will be right back to proper pencils and paper tomorrow as I don’t plan to be at home for some of the day. Might as well get outside, bring my supplies, and see what I can come up with. Today, I was hoping to do a picture of Angel from the very early X-Men comics. Which I’ve been reading a lot lately. Found a good picture in issue #17, but while I was getting set up I was feeling uneasy about the idea. It’s going to be tough to draw humanoid characters. I’ve never been good at it, even when I try silly looking cartoon characters. Things always look off. We’ll see, still might save that for another day, but I’ll give it some more thought tomorrow.

EDIT: I should also mention down here that I’ve finally designed this website properly. Got some nice header graphics going on up there, and I welcome anybody interested in seeing all kinds of my random artwork to visit the Gallery page. Really happy with how everything is progressing so far!
