The Alot

This is my version of a creature that famous Allie made. She envisions this creature whenever anyone misspells "a lot" as "alot". Making it a noun instead discribing the amount of something. You can read about the Alot here.
You can also buy a shirt of the Alot from her here. I totally would love an Alot T-shirt.

I might work on it a little bit more when I have some spare time to punch up some of the anatomy and the fur.

For this Alot I decided to moddafiy it a bit so that it has turtle and deer parts... and other things. The background was simple because I found a photo and then modifidy it to look like I painted it... so I hope nobody talks about it.

Vehical

Here is my Yellow Airplane. As apposed to a yellow submarien I suppose.
This is of course my first attempt at digitailly painting a vehical. Pretty good overall I think, Not terribly much I'm not happy with.
It's suppose to be like a kart plane, one that you would find in one of those kart racing games. So i enjoy it looking rather simple and the seating being huge.

Two interesting things that people have told me. First, Blake told me that my digital painting are usually muddy. Which is sorta true. I switch between a hard pixel brush and and soft pixel brush with low flow pretty often. When I blend my colours I switch to my soft pixel brush which I like a lot... but it does tend to leave my edges looks quite muddy. Paniting this plane was a bit of a challenge in that regard because I couldn't leave it looking muddy or else I would loose the metalic effect.
The second is something my life drawing teacher told me. He said that there are two types off ways od drawing; anialitical, and expressive. He said that my way off drawing is quite a bit heavy on the expressive side and to improve I would need to combine it with a more aninlitcal side of drawing. I thought that this painting would be a good way to combine both sides of anialitical drawing and my heavy expressive drawing. I don't think that I combine the two that well thought. My plane still looks a fbit too flowy and not solid enoungh. I think I would have prefured it looking more solid.

For colours, I looked up different things I could do with yellow. I had actually found a couple of interesting different things people did with a solid colour on vehical. On certain angles the colour switchs to couple notches around the colour. So in certain spots I switched it from yellow to brown and orange. It gives it an intersting look.

Felica Day Caricature

Here is my Caricature of Felicia Day.
If she saw this she'd probably slap me -- I'm sorry Felicia Day! I did not give you the justice a fan like me thinks you deserve. Ha ha.

Well anyways, I saw a photo of her doing a silly face like this so I thought it would be fun to caricature her with that silly face. This is my second digital painting that was successful.

I am disappointed with he hair and boobs, here. I think if I spent more time on it I really could have made the hair neat. The colours also seem to work better together than in my previous digital painting. The skin is also a bit to grainy for my liking.

Here is a nerd tid-bit, the necklace she is wearing is from her Codex character from the Guild - A show I enjoy a lot.

Self Portrait

This is a digital painting I did in my first year at Seneca college.

It was my first successful digital paint I ever did. I say successful loosely, as in - it did not look like a total mess on the screen. A lot of things needed work here. My expression, that gosh awful hair, the cheek and forehead area; the lips and teeth for sure. I bet you do not even look at that ear.

There are a lot of things wrong, but for a first painting it has a few things that I still rather like.
The cheek is well brought up and the eye detail is quite nice if you wanna zoom in that far.

It kinda looks like me. Much like an apple that looks like a banana. Oh well.
