90 Minute Art Challenge- 'Skateboarding' Life Drawing Session

 

You know the drill: a string of 10-minute, 5-minute, 2-minute, and 1-minute poses over on this Schoolism live stream. 

This might be the most striking image I made out during this session. 





I like the simplicity of this 5-minute pose.


I like the tonal work on these poses.

90 Minute Art Challenge- 'Cosplay' Life Drawing Session

 I managed to do this #90MinuteArtChallenge last week, which was a life drawing session, compromising of 1-minute, 2-minute, 5-minute, and 10-minute poses. 

This might be my favourite as it is very clear to understand the pose of this figure. Kind of reminds me more of Adam Ant than Pirates of the Caribbean, but that's me. 





I like how I've made it very clear that it was a Storm Trooper cosplayer without inking the entire figure.





This came out very well, despite not being a clear human figure underneath all of that military gear.

Pumpkin- Draft 3- Day 30 Artober 2021

Day 30 into Artober, and I do a bit more on this Pumpkin animation. Just want to work on the ending before I start toying with the timing.

Pumpkin (Rough Animation) First Draft

For Day 28 of Artober, I thought of starting some animation work for this pumpkin character.

Day 19- Artober 2021- Photo at Cosener's House

 

Here's a photo I took near a venue for a sombre event on that day. 

Day 18, and Days 20-25, Artober 2021

 

Yeah, I need to stop scanning all of these at once. Oh well, here goes... 
Today was inspired by a recent Saturday Night Live sketch of their science show parody, Science Room with Jason Sudeikis. It's worth watching as it is a prime example of things escalating out of control. 

I was another YouTuber tackling Super Mario Maker when I made this loose interpretation of Super Mario. It's a bit goofy, but that's part of its charm. 

I was watching Strictly when I shared that Teletubbies GIF of them on that special to one of my loyal friends on Facebook. Yeah... it's a bit demented, isn't it?  

During a Zoom call, I ended up drawing one of these characters for an upcoming Christmas show I'm in. At least I can look at this when I get around to writing a bio for this character. 

I wasn't feeling that inspired on this day, so just doodled these two characters. Don't think I will do much with them. 

I just stumbled on this YouTuber, Rick Beato, and I thought I try drawing this personality. Not bad. I might watch more of their videos soon. 

On this day, I was watching Venom. So I did my own interpretation of that comic book film character. 

Oh, before you ask, I did do something on Day 19, but that's on my smartphone.

Day 16- Artober 2021- Digital Life Drawings

 



Yesterday was just some life drawing done on my smartphone with the Sketchpad app. 

Day 15 and 17- Artober 2021- Illustration and Colouring-In

Before you ask, I had done something for Day 16, but it will come as a separate post because they are on my phone rather than being scanned here. 



Day 15 was done during a meeting for a future leaflet for one of the voluntary groups I attend to. They wanted a simple graphic of a chimney with the smoke coming out as a money sign. I might toy with these later to produce a finalised piece, so stay tuned. 

Day 17 is just a coloured-in drawing done with crayons. I had my nieces over and one of them wanted to do some colouring from this Crayola book that has stickers to go with these drawings. I don't know if this counts as a proper Artober piece... but hey, it was therapeutic colouring in with crayons.

Days 8 to 14- Artober 2021 (Teddy Bear to Pink Panther)

 Yeah, I didn't plan to post all of these together, but I've had a lot going on during this week, so here we go...

Yeah, this is just a fun sketch of some teddy bear character. I might revisit this. 
On this day, I was watching a live stream of someone playing a ToeJam and Earl game, and one of the enemies was an opera singer. So here's my attempt at this character from memory.

Got inspired to draw this character from an old friend's batch of photographs taken when they were shopping for pumpkins. I quite like this character. 

Yeah, I didn't have that many art materials when I was doing this piece, hence using a highlighter rather than my trusty brush pens to draw out these characters. They make a good duo. 

Another day, and another live stream, this time they were playing that Nickeloden All-Star Brawl video game. So here's CatDog from memory. Not too bad. 

Yay! I had my brush pens back in reachable distance, so I drew this character based on a speaker I tried to watch via Zoom on Monday, which explains some of the details on this one. 

As being a fan of the Pink Panther character since I was a kid, I've never really drawn them before. This was very poignant with the passing of David H Patie doing the rounds on my Facebook feed that day. I like how this came out in the end.
