So, I got first place in the 24 hour challenge! Woohoo!
the 24 hour challenge is where the animation majors at my school get together and spend the night at the school. While there they have 24 hours to do any of the specified challenges. One of the challenges was a 12 second traditional animation. I started this around 9 AM on Friday morning, and finished around 5 AM Saturday morning (with very frequent breaks).
I don't know why I've been drawing Freakazoid stuff so much. This one was really fun to do; I haven't used charcoal in ages. This is a Gutierrez, one of Freakazoid's enemies.
I couldn't find my digital camera so I had to scan it which is why it seems so cramped. There's about half an inch of drawing that got cut off.
I was experimenting with a new way to color using markers for the flats and going over them with colored pencils. I kinda like the result.
...Anywho...
Failed my review because I don't have enough final finished pieces, so I guess I'll pull out the bristol more often instead of just drawing in my sketch book all the time. Here's the first of the new era.
So, I have an assignment coming up that will require some coloring. I usually handle all of that digitally, but I feel like doing stuff by hand's less of a hassle these days. No printing costs. Just no undo button. I guess it's really a choice between the two.
Anywho, It's been a while since I've posted, so here are a few highlight sketches from this week.
