Painting Practice






































Here are some paintings I've been working on today of other peoples' characters. I'm going to open up for commissions soon if anyone would like one.

From right to left they are: 2ndLtHavoc's Janus Vector, William's Paveline, and Lizgigg's Little Prince Princess. I just made that last name up.

Scott - Sketch Update!


It's been so long since we updated here, I figured it was about time to remedy that situation. I'm going to be adding sketches more often, probably once a week again!

William-Collected Computer Doodles


I do a lot of half-paintings and sketches on the computer that I never post anywhere. i should start posting them places, I think. Here are a bunch from the past few months or so. I hope you enjoy!

Scott - Sketchbook Doodles

Seems like I'm updating here every Thursday...interesting.

These are a bunch of random ink pen drawings I've done while I'm in classes. There are more in my book but these are the decent ones. They cover about 3 weeks or so.

Scott - Sketch Collection


Here's another batch of sketches I worked on over the last two days. I had trouble sleeping the night before last and this is what I did to keep busy. There are some random figures, some from the web, some I made up, there are some character designs, and some drawings of people I know from school and facebook. It's been really good practice to do these, hopefully nobody begrudges my drawing them.

Scott - Bunch of Sketches


I did all these over the past 3 days. There were a lot more but I removed the really bad ones. I've been thinking a lot about style lately and what style means to me. I've always had a hard time because I've been able to render things in a lot of different ways and I enjoy it all. Lately, I've needed to pick a certain look and maintain that for a project but it's been impossible to decide. I realized that it doesn't have to be all or nothing. All of these things are me, so I'll just let myself work how I need or want to.

Scott - Hourly Comics Day










Here are the very rough, sometime illegible comic panels I did for hourly comics day. Woo! They are fairly autobiographical.

New Character Dood


A new character for a new story I'm coming up with. Don't know what the story will come to but I have a clear concept of his character.

Scott - Short Comic page 1


This is page 1 of a short 8 page comic I am working on. It will, hopefully, be in a short comics collection from William and I at some point (maybe just a small thing we do ourselves).

Some almost fanart for Kimagure Orange road which I have been watching lately and is kind of embarassing to say. Ha ha ha.

Scott - Backgrounds







These are the fairly rough drawings for my final project for Animation Basics 2 with Liz. The smaller ones took a few hours to put together but the last one took something like 5 or 6 hours on its own. It was awful.

However this was all good perspective and background practice.

Scott - Doodles


Trying some things with pencil and coloured pencil.

Old thigns and new things.

I've got a ton of drawings on my computer that are just doodles, some finished, others not. Most of them I haven't posted anywhere. Here are some of them!

Left is my friends character, Kin, who I dressed up like a street punk.















To the right are some old sketches of my character Shirona that I never posted anywhere.






A town scene I drew last night to paint something that wasn't a portrait and to practice environments with buildings.


And finally, some other character I started painting a while ago. Didn't seem important enough to finish.

That's all for now!

Scott - Gift of Music Storyboard




I didn't explain the last board, but I like this one better so I figured I would give some context. In this story, a young boy hears a tale about a forest sprite that lives near his village from his grandfather. In days gone by, the forest sprite gave mankind the gift of music and asked nothing in return. Over the years, the sprite became more reclusive until nobody had seen it for quite some time. The boy asks what would happen if he were to catch it, but the grandfather only smiles and says he isn't sure.

At this point the boy realizes the sun is setting and that he has to go home for dinner. He runs down the stairs and outside, waving goodbye to his elder. He runs through town where his mother pokes out from their home, yelling at him that he is late and that he should grab some water from the well. He responds, "Yes, mom!!" and carries on running down the road. She yells at him to slow down.

As he draws water from the well, he begins to hear soft flute playing coming from the bamboo forest around the well. He turns to see a glimmering light and drops his bucket to chase it into the woods. He carries on through the woods and crosses random obstacles until he finally sees it disappear over a hill and hears the music stop. He enters a clearing that appears empty and looks around. He then sees the sprite floating there, not moving. He approaches it, then imperiously demands to be given skill with music. The sprite stares at him. He stares back. After some time of the sprite not moving at all, he begins to become scared and steps back. As he does, the sprite leans back and reaches into it's flowing garments. It leans forward and gives him something. We see that it is a flute. The boy looks curiously up at the sprite, not sure what this means, then raises it to his lips to play a tune.

Only shrill notes come out. The boy looks up, startled and disappointed but finds that he has been left alone. He stands there for a minute, looking down at the flute in his hands and, finally, makes a stern expression. He raises the flute to his lips once more and begins to practice; trying to play the song he heard from the sprite. As he does, he turns off into the woods. We see him disappear eventually, but continue to hear him playing. The screen fades to black with him still playing as we hear him get a few notes right.

William-Flower On Your Forhead




A simple storyboard about a girl who makes plants grow. A farmer gets mad at her, so she makes a flower grow on his head.

Scott - Storyboards!









We do a lot of storyboards in our Concept Creation class. The goal is to have a few ideas at the end of the semester to work from for our junior and senior animation projects. This was my first attempt and I'm not terribly happy with the concept but I figured I'd upload it here.

Scott - Sketchbook

Some random drawings from a sketchbook using pencil, brush pens, and Micron Pens.
