Nice portrait - I love the teeth.

Here's a WIP meant for last weeks CHOW, that I'll try to finish...

[tobbA]

An update on the janitors from before and also on that warrior dude...

[Dacountno2]

Good stuff! the watercolour is especially impressive!

[tobbA]

Thanks

Spinning around

[Black Spot]

Excellent turn around.

Are you going to sharpen the warrior up to match his mace?

[Mahran]

I love the portrait.
Keep up the great work!

[tobbA]

Black Spot: Thanks. Yes. I want to keep working on him... Just a little hard to find the time at the moment.

Mahran: Thanks

Set design.

[Black Spot]

Interesting stage design. The curtains need to have room to open fully to the point where you can't see them. If you don't have a back stage door on the right, you'll need a backdrop making a corridor for actors to be able to enter from stage right without being seen. Having leaves on either side on the stage breaks up the side, again to hide actors coming and going. Can you tell I used to do a load of amateur dramatics?

[tobbA]

Black Spot: Thanks. That makes sense.

Have been pretty bad at updating... But here are some recent studies.

First two are from a random clothing catalogue. A horse from life. And another female...

Storyboard

[tobbA]

First five panels with values

[Black Spot]

That's a lot of work you've set yourself. Looks a good start.

[tobbA]

Thanks. We were only required to do five panels in values for the course... so I don't think there'll be any more.

[Lord Dubu]

I like your candlestick a lot. Watercolor is one of my favorite mediums.

[tobbA]

Thanks...

Here's another water color still life. (An old kitchen scale.)

[Black Spot]

I love old kitchen stuff and you've caught it well.

[tobbA]

Thanks

Color Keys (A bit overworked, but whatever )

Final shot design

Faye Valentine sketch

[Black Spot]

The strip came out well.

I hope she's got a ton of cushions under her back for that pose.

[tobbA]

Hm. Yeah... I had a bit of a different idea for the pose. But it didn't come out that way... Guess I should put some cushion or something in there to make it look better.

[SMILEFACE]

haha AAAWWWEESSSSSSSSOOOMMME WERKS BROTHER THE WATERCOLORS AN THE MUSIC VIDEO WORKS RRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!! !!!!! ARE YOU GOING TO BE ABLE TO POST THE FINAL ANIMATION?

[tobbA]

Thanks. No. We're only making the art so there won't be an animation. Would have been cool though.

Some watercolor apples from our garden.

[Black Spot]

Apples look tasty. It's tough doing the leaves that close. Is that rhubarb bottom left?
