Inktober- Day 25- Cookie Monster Display

Some of my Facebook friends have been this brilliant Halloween display over in Pennsylvania, and I couldn't resist trying to draw it from the news segment about it. It was fun trying to get the shadows into the scene as that made the Cookie Monster display give the impression of the iconic character's mouth shape. I need to do more studies like this as I tend to do just character-focused rather than environmental/architectural pieces.

Inktober- Day 12- Not Again Cartoon

One of my professional Facebook friends shared a cartoon from Vic Kasinja's Taxina series. I was inspired by the figure in the foreground's pose, I was inspired to create my own cartoon out of it... only with a more topical topic on a contemporary telly.

Trigger Word- After- 31st August 2014










It has been nearly one and half years since I last found some time to do a trigger word; although I had this on fruition for a few months, but never had the time to become orientated from it until now.
So this models the preposition 'after', meaning later than. So the example I used was I watched the news on TV after I put the rubbish out. I'm pleased that I was able to depict the newsreaders of my local news presenters- British local news fans may want a guess at my region and those personalities. I was also able to depict our food waste bin, and trying to get the hand gestures right of what my hand is doing when placing the food waste into that bin.
I had problems trying to take shots of the of the figures, but I'm pleased with my third attempt of my figure watching TV, my first attempt at the figure putting rubbish into a bin with his face in shot, and my last attempt at depicting the entire situation with my figure putting waste into the bin.
I'm quite pleased with the setup, although I may want to lower my base down to avoid those corners sticking out of my fabric layer like that. I'm glad I found time to do this, and I want to find time again to do another one, but my schedule is a bit thrown off with potential work commitments at the moment; so I can't gurantee new trigger word models anytime soon.
