The time had come to finally deliver something for the DC3 module. It was interesting considering that the only delivery was at the end of the year, but I don’t complain. The final part of the ICA, before handing in things, was to draw pictures of “The continents”.
So here are the drawings that I delivered (had to be twelve, and two of them had to be in traditional media), and it seems like you can learn a lot from observing life to learn to draw as well. I didn’t draw as much this year as I intended to, but still I can see improvement in my work. Wonder what it would look like if I had made drawings all the time… Well, that will be something I’ll have to work on, after all the other modules are finished.
Anyway, here are the pictures that I delivered (in alphabetical order), some unfinished (like the environment and the scavenger), and some of them you’ve seen before. As always, click to resize.
Alphabet: D for Dragon Head

Update (26. November 2009): I made this in Photoshop, but after a presentation/tutorial by Nigel Dobbyn at the University, I’ve decided to continue this style in the superior (for inking) Illustrator.
This is an experiment. I went away from my sketchy/painty style and went for some comic book-ish style for this piece.
It just started as a doodle, but I kept working on it. The composition is not good at all, but this is one layer, so I can’t move things around easily. Note to self: Start with composition next time.
I could remove the guy to the right and cut away a tiny bit of the backgrond, then it would be solved, but it wouldn’t be a team anymore.
And yes, Mike Mignola is awesome…
My interpretation of Guybrush Threepwood disguised as LeChuck
Aleksander suggested we should start making a sketch each and every day from now on, so here’s my first sketch in this project. I can’t update this blog every single day, but will make up for it by creating a sketch for each missing post.
The reasons for me to do this are to get better at drawing, getting more creative and just updating my blog with something.
Sebastian in my class suggested that I should draw Guybrush Threepwood as LeChuck, but I made him a LeChuck disguise instead.
Made with the OLD Wacom tablet. Just IMAGINE the possibilities with the magnificent and fantasticular Intuos 4!
I just added ‘Stuff’ to the gallery along with some old pictures.
Earlier today I woke up by a TNT-man(or UPS-guy) ringing the doorbell. Obviously he hated his job and probably wanted to strangle a monkey, but he gave me my brand new Wacom Intuos 4 tablet first.
Oh joy! It didn’t work at first *panic*, but found some drivers on the net that fixed my problems *relief*.
It’s a lot better and sensitive than the Wacom I borrowed at school.
Now I just got to make something with it. Hmmm… Animating or “painting”. Animating or “painting”…
As I was working on the texture for the robot, I started to see a picture taking shape.
It became a speed painting of one of my favorite comic book characters, made using a mouse, photoshop and some brushes(.zip-file from http://psbrushes.net) from the net.
The style ended up looking a bit like Frank Miller’s.
Fun, fun, fun.
Stayed up all night making more concept art.
So very tired.
We started storyboarding the start of the film at school today.
Now, some pictures:
I wanted to make some light armor for her so she could run around and being the acrobatic person she is. The pose is better than in the previous design I made of her, and the colors are a bit warmer, more fitting for the desert environment.

Very roughly sketched comic
