Decided to do two portraits of villains I hardly draw, Robyn and Raz (yeah my villains are female lolololol)This villain is Robyn from my story, Bordertown. I'd post more about her but I hardly know her myself. Enjoy! Raz soon to come.

Backin' up
I learned something today, something I should have learned a REALLY long time ago (actually I did I just never really paid attention to it).
Currently, I am working on a small project composed of two portraits of my two main villans, Robyn and Raz. This project, "Evil Pickle Villans" mainly is for grins, nothing really serious. I started Robyn last night before I trotted off to work, leaving the portrait in the basic base form. This morning I went to work on it, really motivated to actually get back into digitally painting again only I kept "screwing up". Her face wasn't working right, the proportions were all over the place, and her skin was just blech! So after repainting for the fifth time I ended up with this.
I absolutely hated this picture out of frustration and anger. It wasn't doing what I wanted.
So I stepped back for some time, crocheting a blanket for a friend then working on a scarf pattern for myself before I came back to try it again.
You know, sometimes you just have to stand back and do something else.
Much happier. My only regret is she looks like Natalie Portman in a way. Grrr...
Moral of the day is just cuz it looks like crap in the beginning doesn't mean it's gonna still be crap later on if you put some effort into it.

9.20.10 sketch
Branching out what I can paint and trying to challenge myself to different things. Let's see how much I can do.
Subject is a Lunar Moth (I think)
8.16.10 Sketch
Goes under my fan art section. I miss drawing Captain Price. Sketched last night, finished suit this morning. Now to work on a project that's been keeping me occupied...
Theme Sketches: Rap
A friend and I came up with an idea to draw our characters in certain themes. I'm actually really excited about this project as this will give me reason to sketch at least three people per day (aiming for five a day) and keep me drawing and possibly getting better again. For this project I'll be using my Wolves of Fortune characters. Kenra, Zach, and Mel are the rappers in this one. Next should be Goth, which I'm REALLY looking forward to.
Wolves of Fortune "Poster"
While I have "The Messengers of Bordertown" story idea as well, I have "Wolves of Fortune" completely inspired off of Far Cry 2 (if you couldn't tell). I got bored several months back and decided to make a poster. This is what came out.
One thing I've noticed is I need a lot of work with legs and lighting. I also need lots of help with backgrounds. I can attempt simple ones like this but that house just doesn't look like it belongs.
Oh wells. I'm tired. Work's got me exhausted.
