RISO Printing

Products from a RISO Printing workshop

(The sketches/thumbnails of potential drawings and the final booklet- Georges work on the left and mine on the right)

First time ever experiencing riso printing, whilst the lesson and the environment on the day was loud and stressful, the riso printing itself was actually a really nice process with some good outcomes and was very interesting. The riso printing is something I would definitely consider doing again and develop further in future projects. It would have been nice to done more, but time was against us, I think my little drawing of a fox could have looked nice. For next time I have to remember to make my lines and drawings darker and more tonal for a better result, as the piece here was too faint and didn’t come out that well, but I liked the design and the amount of detail there.

Made from a mark

(Portraits in different ways – Me, 2 of Eloise and Sophie)

(Collage based on one of our drawings – only using basic shapes and then using the collage character in a drawing)

A workshop where we did a lot of quick drawing to try and draw using different techniques.

I enjoyed the workshop, as we got to do a lot of portraits and that I do a lot of portraits, even though I had to draw a self-portrait of myself. I didn’t really learn anything new from it. We had to do a collage for the last part, whilst it turned out fairly okay, I still don’t like making collages.

Dance with me – animation

You know maybe one day I will make a nice proper animation

Yeah this was an impromptu little animation so I had no real idea of where I was going with this, I was just in the mood for animating and didn’t have anything else going on ^^; There are some inconsistency problems, but I’m slowly getting better at keeping it constant. I’m sorry if the text is going too quickly, again it was something I was just playing around with to give them a voice 🙂 Also a thanks to Kasey Hall for giving me some feedback 😀

So it’s a little animation of my oc’s Dai and Mia as little kids just interacting and stuff, I would like to make more animations and make them more of a regular thing but I have other things to do most of the time ^^;

Art(animation) and characters belong to me

I hope you all like them 😀

 

I’ll be posting uni work again soon 🙂

Self-Portrait

Needed a new ID (Doing a self-portrait is becoming a yearly thing XD – *looks at past years self-portraits and screams silently into the void*)

Maybe for next years ID I’ll make something more fun or meaningful ^^;

I bought Clip Studio Paint when it was sale before Christmas but only recently got a chance to download it, and this is the first thing I’ve drawn on it. So far so good, I’ll keep working with it to see what more I can do it, but I still like Paint tool sai 😀 and I’ll keep using it for certain stuff ^^

(Also as a note – this is about as accurately as I am willingly going to draw myself, not that I’m unable to but I’d rather not)

I hope you all like it 😀

Final Book

It’s done, it’s finally done! I’m quite happy how it’s turned out, the binding and the print out isn’t perfect and that I should improve on next time, but I like it, it was the push I needed to try and make a comic and it gave me the chance to work on a project, and getting a prologue done. I’m still not a 100% sure of it though, I don’t think I’ll post the full comic pages online, but it was a nice thing to work on.

Art and work belongs to me.

Cover Progress – Themed project

I’ve nearly finished the main part of the themed project, I will be printing it on Monday ^^

I thought I’d show the progress images of making the cover:

1.Initial ideal/brainstorming

2. sketch

3. Lining

4. Coloured

5. added background

6. Edited scan

7. Finished work.

 

I like this idea more than my first initial/draft cover. Had to do a bit of editing due to the scan.

Themed project progress

For my themed project I’m going to be doing a little story and here are the progress. All the pages have been sketched out and I’m going to start inking them soon, I’m not really looking forward to that, as my lines always end up shaky ^^; but I’m on top of things to it wont take me too long to finish all the pages, which is good. There are 9 pages at the moment, with two of them completely finished so I only have 7 left, but maybe I’ll be adding more to make the story work better if needs be. There is also the dummy book.

There will also be illustrations in the little book, I’m not sure how many yet, but two have been done already. I also need to decide on a title.

Drawing Prompts

Otherwise known as the nonsense I draw in my spare time

Dammit Dallas!

There was shouting and a lot of crying. . . it was a intense game

Iven: You’re worse than your brother

These are some prompts from the draw the squad meme

I’m just going to leave them here and not explain myself I want to draw more, please someone stop me

the characters all belong to me.

Valentines Drawings

I  like Valentines day and all, I just don’t really do much for it, but I like drawing cute , sweet and coupley things so I should try and get some confidence in doing so ^^

The owl is a gift for myself XD

These are my sketches of an idea I had but didn’t have enough time to do them all, but I might finish them or do something similar for next year ^^

here is a link to one I did finish though ^^

I hope you all like it and I hope you all have a wonderful day, whether you celebrate it or not 🙂
