Tizzy's Sketchbook (update 15/12/10)

[Tizzy]

Looks like I don't have enought consistency with this sketchbook...every time AustenFm has to make me notice that I have disappeared for too long and only then I eventually return! (thank you Austen!)
Sorry! But now here I am and here are the pages I should have posted several months ago!

@Blankstate: Thank you so much for colouring something of mine!! I really appreciate that! And I like the result!

@AustenFM: Hey! Thank you! Yes all is going well and I've been up to a lot since July! The only problem is that I'm scared to write in english so sometimes I have the bad habit of escaping from my SB and I forget to update it for months!
But yes,at least I hope I haven't forgotten how to draw

These are the lay out and the 8 pages for a project against racism made with the township of Reggio Emilia.
The story was written by my schoolmate Jacopo Mommarelli and will come out this saturday with other short stories about the same theme.

No comments!!! sheesh you people have no taste.

Hey Tizzy! Those new pages are looking really good! That's a nice fisheye effect you did in the first four at top and I like the rocket toting robot guy. The half-tone in the lower pages look good too. Don't have much too crit but that's 'cause you seem to be getting even better at mastering those different perspective angles and mixing up your shots to keep things interesting. Keep at it!

Your comics are looking real good, clean lines and wonderful grasp on perspective! Looking forward to more!

Btw, do you use a lot of references or do you draw it all out of your head, for example the staircase scene in the second to last page?

wanted to send you some mad props for how much you've improved from your first post and what is great is that we can see your progression! Bravo!

Wow I love your stuff pretty good, one thing for the hands, draw also the palm with a
BOX and draw them bigger that forces you to keep the details with the box that will
make you understand the construction much better. I have loads of hand in my SB,
take a look. Very good sketch book you can help me too with other stuff, I just drew
hand like crazy.

Il tuo lavoro è stupendo Tizzy, i tuoi sketch mostrano una precisione e una tecnica invidiabili - ma ovviamente c'è poco da invidiare, è chiaro che dietro c'è tantissime dedizione e lavoro.

Scusa se dico poco riguardo la tua arte (ci sono più espressioni meravigliate che parole ) ma...il fumetto contro il razzismo mi ha veramente scosso. Il tuo è un ottimo lavoro ovviamente, ma per quanto il risultato sia ovviamente compassione per Mohamed e disprezzo per il comportamento pieno di pregiudizio per i nostri connazionali che non dovrebbero lanciare la prima pietra, in realtà la persona più disprezzabile è proprio Karim, immigrato che desidera l'integrazione e quindi viene pressato in una situazione orribile, ma è impossibile provare simpatia per lui. E' un lavoro breve ma molto controverso, e amaro: devo dire che è raro per un lavoro anti-razzista, e sicuramente questo almeno assicura che non sia banale.
