Inktober 2019- Day 4- Finalised(?) Censored Logo and Dr Oetker Cakes

Day 4 into my Inktober and I think I managed to finalise this logo for the client as I think the client hasn't given me any further feedback at the time of writing this blog entry. So with that professional brief out of the way... I thought I do this?
Remember when Channel 4's Great British Bake Off used to be sponsored by Dr Oetker? Well, here is an off-model attempt to recreate one of my favourites. Yeah, I should've looked at the original before doing this, but at least it was a bit of fun from some of the professional work I've been up to recently. I've also done some drawn inking, having just discussed this with an illustrator at a meetup a few weeks ago. I left it with the original pencilling because I like it.

Inktober- Day 3- Logo Redesign

I don't know if this counts as a different drawing, as I have to amend the colour scheme a bit of it. Not going to have to do much else now... but I might add some doodles to this post as I have had an exhaustive outing yesterday and it has caught up with me today. 

 I decided to upload last night's doodles on the programme note as I feel as I am not going to do too much on that logo on Day 4 than I am going to do so.

Inktober- Day 2- Logo Redesigns (Coloured, Traditional, and Initial Sketch)

Not going to get much done today, but I decided to go back to the drawing board, and resdesign this logo, so I wasn't forever revisiting the same files on a constant basis. 

Inktober 2019- Day 1- Logo Design Variants

Yes, it's Inktober again, and unless you want doodles from a meeting instead, this is probably the best I can offer today which is variants for a new client. I can't go much into the detail about this one yet, hence the censoring over the text, but I hope you appreciate how each design has changed over the course of an entire afternoon into the late evening. 

Shot of Onto Trigger Word

Shot of Putting Drinks Onto Table

Shot of Friends at Cafe

Shot of Talking Friend

Shot of Friends in Conversation

I managed to have time to make another trigger word after managing to complete my model of Off recently. This one is about the word 'Onto', meaning to "to a position on". So as I tend to pay for a drink with my friends, I modelled one of my friends getting a drink from me at a cafe. So, the action of putting those drinks on the table at this cafe was a related example for me to illustrate the word 'onto'.

I took a shot of the model with the arrows in the shot to illustrate the drinks literally going onto the table. I managed to zoom in a bit to avoid those arrows and I liked the outcome of it. I was very pleased with the outcome of the friend model in conversation after we got our drinks, hence the portrait shot of them. I managed to zoom out to get some context of that cafe scene too.

Model of Figure Feeling Hot

Shot with Two Figures

It has been a while since I've done a trigger word, based on the Davis Dyselxia Association technique. The word is 'Off', meaning "not on; away or down from". So I went for myself taking off my fleece because I felt hot, hence the big arrow pointing to where the coat has gone on the far right of the full shot of the model.
I took several other shots too to capture the figures in much detail. My favourite being the with the two figures, featuring myself in the fleece, with the thought bubble's figure in the background.

Ric Ocasek Fan Art- Ink and Pencil Sketch

I got inspired by Stephen Silver's recent post about drawing from the screen rather than from still photos to create this tribute fan art to The Cars' musician Ric Ocasek. I got inspiration from watching his presence in the official music video for Magic. I gave him shades, like from his live footage,  because I wasn't too confident with sketching some eyes for Ric. I think I'll leave it like this as I like the loose pencilling and inking on this. I will definitely need to get back into doing more drawing again.
