Weekly Blog - Week of Oct26 - k3-studio


Recently I discovered this artist on Deviantart who does these amazing pieces. I'm not really sure what he uses and I haven't asked but I like the 3d ideas. His most recent if the music one (which is now my happy wallpaper). And the previous one was the card maker. I really like the white and the bright colors he uses which makes it soft and appealing to the eye. I'm just really in love with the music one because it's really taking something that is 2D and pulling it off paper to make it look 3D.

His gallery is here: http://k3-studio.deviantart.com/gallery/

Weekly Blog - Week of Oct26 - Age Meme


I've been seeing these age memes around Deviantart which the artists picks a character and draws them at certain ages of their lives. I find this a good character development technique as well as a fun activity because you really get to understand the character inside and out and throughout their lives. I plan to try and do this for one of my characters and hopefully I'll have some sketches up later. These were done by Endling and Zombiesmile from Deviantart.

Weekly Blog - Week of Oct26 - Sketch



Chibi sketches that I did in my sketch book of 2 of my characters with a couple of my friend's characters.

(Chibi means a smaller cartoonish version of the original. Or something like that.)

Weekly Blog - Week of Oct19 - Sketch

A sketch of me and a group of friends who play S4. This is pretty much what our characters look like though it's obviously not done. I don't believe I'll have time to ink and color it. QQ

Weekly Blog - Week of Oct19 - Yaichino


This is an artist by the name of Yaichino that I recently found. What attracts me to their art is how smooth the lines are. Especially the skin on the face and folds in the clothes. This was the first piece I found which is what got me looking into their gallery. I also like the background looking genuinely like bricks. Although obviously I think the graffiti is sort of out of place. If that's supposed to be an evil sort of pikachu or something.

Weekly Blog - Week of Oct19 - Mini Meteor


This is a cute little short comic that an artist I watch on Deviantart submitted. It's still digital but it has that traditional material feel to it. Most of the work this artist has involves magic mixing with innocent children. Even though this comic does not have any words, it's still cute and touching that a falling star actually grew into an oversized nightlight for the child. XD Even though that sounded sarcastic, I really didn't mean it to, it's adorable. <3 http://ethe.deviantart.com/art/Mini-Meteor-140604878

Weekly Blog - Week of Oct14 - Jung Hyun Yei



So I recently discovered this artist thanks to my friend, literally the night before. This artist had done concept art for S4 League (along with Panaman) and so much more. I really love his website and how neat and laid out it is. I also am super impressed with his videos that he made for another game called DJMAX. (Which looks like a weirdo version of DDR to me). But I recommend going to check out his website. Enjoy the video! <3

Weekly Blog - Week of Oct14 - Zetallis


So I found this picture recently on my scavengers across Deviantart. It's another representation of the zodiac symbol scoprio. But besides the colors, I especially like how it represents the sign but it doesn't go over the board with merging the character with animal type body parts. What draws me to it especially is how they did the scorpion tail with cloth. I thought that was brilliant. XD

Weekly Blog - Week of Oct14 - Sketch


A sketch for a friend from Deviantart. It was part of the 10 free sketches randomness I decided to do one day. It is 3/10 sketches so far. This character's name is Darius and he's part of a club that I created.

Weekly Blog - Week of Oct05 - Endling

Another artist on Snafu goes by the name of Endling. He does absolutely amazing comics and I really want to be able to try and pull it off one day. His backgrounds and dynamic feelings in each comic. His most known character here in the comic is known as Red (aka Little Red Riding Hood) Except this is a more psychotic version. Red is haunted by the black wolf which basically killed her grandmother and is the reason why she is in a crazy wonderland type of asylum with other fairy tales such as Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Jack and Jill, etc etc. I believe the comic story is called Ever After. Unfortunately it is on a hiatus but I do encourage others to read it and take a look. It's pretty intense. Other than that, Endling has amazing character designs, which I believe the ones I remember as of late are his interpretations of the 7 Deadly sins. If you want to take a look here's his comic Ever After and his deviantart account.

Weekly Blog - Week of Oct05 - Bleedman

Bleedman is one of the popular artists on a website called Snafu-comics. His popularity began with making a comic that combined old cartoonnetwork cartoons such as the powerpuff girls, Dexter's laboratory, and Samurai Jack. It soon grew that he began to include a few nickalodeon cartoons. His style is very unique but mostly leans towards his interpretation of the powerpuff girls but from seeing his designs to the left, he can do much more. I really love reading his comics.

Weekly Blog - Week of Oct05 - Sketch


First of all, just to clarify, i do more sketches on the computer to upload than sketches on paper because my scanner is terrible. It drives me nuts when it suddenly decides to cut off half of my picture and it isn't even good enough to work with.

Anyhoo, this is a sketch of a character of mine called Xeshn with his love Xenna. Tho he hasn't told her yet they're such a cute couple. Xenna actually belongs to a friend of mine. But I love them none the less. When i finish this, it'll be the first piece I've done colored of these two.

And if you might've wanted to see the completed version of the dance picture here it is:
