Kittys Drawings

Hi Everyone!
This week I had all intentions of fixing up the drawing in the previous post. I also did a bunch of quick fashion sketches that I had plans on colouring.

But then I became aware of ConceptArt’s latest CHOW topic. Fantasy Pinup. Umm – could that have been any more perfect?? So of course I jumped on it. Actually fairly pleased with this one – It could have done with a bit more detail but overall, I think my CHOW entries have improved significantly
This took me about 6 hours – maybe more? I used a ref for the pose. By Sunday, I was hungover from the night before so I was glad I’d pretty much finished it on Saturday.

Work in progress. Look – no lines!

So this week, I will finish the drawings I had planned on.
Also – I might head back to life drawing next Monday.

Ciao!

Sup!
So this is my entry for this past week’s CHOW – Brief for the project is in my last post (Just to confuse you!)….Overall, I’m pretty MEH about it. Didn’t have enough time to do what I want with it and I suffered from not thinking things through fully again.
I got some great tips from the ConceptArt peeps – Skip the backgrounds for now if you’re unsure about them and watch your values and anatomy. Yup yup got it

Some work in progress and details…(click for bigger)

Now I should get back to doing my latest client project!!!
Bye

Hellooooo!
Hope you all had a great weekend! Was a ripper here in Melbourne. Mid 30′s both days and quite hot. Beer weather. Mmmm. Downed quite a few on Saturday let me tell you that. Our house was thoroughly warmed! Even the cops rocked up – so you know its a good party when they make an appearance. Teehee. Well we’re really not that wild – I think we just have uptight neighbours…considering it was barely even 10pm. Overreaction much?

So…Today’s sketches are to do with Concept Art’s Character of the Week (CHOW) comp. This week it’s all about Jousting in 2706 AD. Think futuristic steeds in zero gravity. Now I’m pretty hopeless at drawing armor and all that so I’ll see if I do alright. Might be a bit challenging but that is the point of CHOW. I drew some horses from reference off iStockPhoto and the last one is the one I think I will use. The first is really awesome and dynamic but would be exceedingly difficult to draw a rider on.

Thoughts on the last one?
I have to add a shield which will have a crest and/or sponsor on it. I can use the family crest for that
Plus, draw a lance and all that biz. Hmm.

Well – I promise if I don’t get too shitty at this I will bring back some colour to this blog.
