Warrior Girl & New PS Brushes: Art- Wednesday

Trying out some new photoshop brushes my friend recommended to me! This was a random doodle as I was testing them out :) I hope you like her!

Some fun with my tablet: Self Portrait

Last night, instead of doing my homework, I got my tablet working on my new computer!!! I had to test it out and so naturally I got distracted and wanted to have some fun with it! I ended up with this fun, loose self portrait :)

Raccoon Run

After making "Bernard says Hello" I did many less successful exercise animation pieces. One of the more successful animation exercises is the one below, a test for a character that would appear in my first animation project with an actual storyline. This animation is meant to be played in a continuous loop, so if you have a mac, command and "L" should do the trick on quicktime, I do not know what it is for PC? I have not figured out how to coax the blogspot player to allow loops yet- if you know please comment and I will post here if I find out :) In any case this will give you an almost seamless loop (the playback hiccups at the start of the loop despite my effort). --All in all I do hope you like her!

Ink: Pig in a Tree?

This was my first time working with a dip pen and ink! To get used to it, I did a copy of a work by illustrator Leslie Brooke. I hope I did her justice, although I do admit I have a more heavy and much less experienced hand (at least at this point) than she, whose line work is very delicate in places such as in the leaves of the tree seen here.
