Kim Possible



This is my Kim Possible assignment for Character design. We were to create a secondary character in the kim possible style. I create this guy named Juan. He's 36, works at Ikea and lives in his parents basement. He's a real nice guy though.

My Hero. Bill Murray.


Our digital tools assignment this week was to caricature and digitally paint a celebrity.
I'm really happy with how mine came out, and I really had fun with this. I'm looking forward to doing a bunch more of these over the summer when I actually have time.

So much to post!

So much to post!!

Ok, because I have no time to actually post all the work I've done lately, I will post the last assignment for digital tools/layout I finished. Since I have it handy here.

I decided to show my process since we're encouraged to save throughout just in case. I know I'm always interested to see how a person gets to the finished process when I see images online.

So first I had laid down the basic colours and then started cleaning up the line work since the scan wasn't that great of a quality. Then I started filling in the objects. Once that was done I started creating the shading in greyscale. We learned this method the class before and I really like doing it this way. Then that's my final result, and below with our character we had to add in.


Still have a long way to go, but overall I'm happy with it.

More to come soon! I promise!

Later days.

Because I'm a whiny little girl who whines about things.

That is all.

More stupid new years resolutions?!

Yea, I know.
But I want to actually try this year.
I know I say this every year, if only to myself but I think that I have enough motivation to actually get things going and stick to it this year.

Cant wait to look back on this next new years and realize I've done none of what I wanted to do.
Alright, without further ado...

1) Draw every single day.
I know, considering what I'm taking in school and what I want to do for a career, this seems like a really stupid resolution. I don't draw as much as I'd like to, or should for that matter. I really need to step it up if I ever want to improve. So this is my first resolution.

2) Become better at time management.
I need to learn how to manage my time WAY better. This past semester taught me how important it is that I learn this skill. I need to keep school, homework, work, and a social life in order. I have to keep up with my assignments so I'm not stuck at school till midnight 3 nights a week to finish!

3) Only use the elevator at school once per day.
It would be SO easy to lose weight being in the animation program, since we're on the 4th floor. All you have to do is not be lazy and actually take the stairs every/most of the time.
I lost 10 pounds in the first month and a half, here's hoping 20 more hit the road before summer.

4) Lose 20 pounds by summer, kind of goes hand in hand with number 3.
I know its possible after losing 10 already. I can do it! Not that hard! No more Wendy's for heavens sake!

5) Get my tattoo finished.
I'm hoping to work enough this summer to be able to afford a few more sessions on my arm and finish it up before the years end. Cant wait to see some colour!

6) Read a lot over the summer.
I have a stack of at least 6 or 7 novels that I have yet to read from last year.
I need to get that done this summer.

7) Do something every day that makes me leave the house.
There's nothing worse than having the laziest day in the world because theres nothing to do so I end up staying home and feeling gross. This is especially for the summer, I want to go out every day, even if its just to ride my bike through the ravine. I don't have time to waste so much of it.


That's all I can think of for now. It's a lot to do, but I think I can do it.
Lets start with number one. I'm gonna go draw for a bit.
School starts in 1 more week. Hopefully I'll be able to upload some of my stuff from first semester before then.

Later days

Christmas Eve Dump

Quick dump before I get back to my Christmas Eve shinnannigans.

First 2 are from my last assignment in character design, zombie gas station attendant, and emo cheerleader.
Definitely have a long way to go with character design.



And the second half of my 100 hands.




I will hopefully be uploading a bunch of other stuff this break from school. So stay tuned!

Later days.
