February Finale

HEHEH!!! First off, I'm having a crap day! So here's my nameless hermit crab to cheer me up!! Ya know, I like scanning in my drawings because it shows if I shaded them right and then it also lets me look at them in a different way. Sometimes I scan pictures in to post on this blog only to realize taht they really suck. Like the Brad Picture down there, he looks like a wonky eyed dog.

Another thing is I've been roaming these blogs for weeks now and I've grown incapable of telling whether a drawing is good or not. Like trying too many perfumes in a perfume store. In the end you know nothing. However, I have found more drawings of mine which are just plain wrong. Embarrassingly off actually. I'm sure there's more but I guess I don't see my other mistakes yet.....at least not until I get a bit better again.

Usually it's very unlike me to be drawing other people's styles, but I'm intrugued and I do, however, copy drawings once or twice or however many times it takes for me to make a satisfactory replica. It's just a thing I do, just for me to know that if I really had to, I could draw/ animate this character. With the american cartoony thing I'm having trouble though, because even though they are so simplistic, they are still 3dimensional characters with 3D faces. And that's why I'm drawing so many faces nowadays: So I can get the proportions right and get the depth right too. When I animate, I usually do action, but I don't think I've ever animated acting: I just dread having to animate a person's head turning around. And since I only like doing things once (I'm extremely lazy) I haven't dared to animated it yet, because I know I'll get it wrong at least the first 4 times, which doesn't make me happy at all:(:(:(!!! I NEED TO STOP BEING SUCH A GADDAMN LAZY PERFECTIONIST!!!

Anyway, here are a few more cartoony chicks. I belive this is the end of cartoony chicks for me, I need to put more time into real faces and animation, so it'll have to be for another time:



The girl on the right is a kind of me person. Yes wonky shoulders wonky shoulders..... The only one I actually like is the middle one.. As you can see I prefer the Betty Boop type style.


Ok, I've finally given in> BelOw is a page from my storyboard that I've done a month ago or so. This movie ain't gonna be made for a while though I'd love to make it oneday.
Based on a Story by Giles D., Storyboard Developed by Mike V. and me, Storyboard drawn by me.

A last thing: I have found a Blog that lets me post gifs. I've put some gifs on this other of my blogs, A Link Can be found in my LINKS section on the side bar to the right:

My Animation Blog!!

though i can only upload 1 MB of gif files, I will either have to swap animations around or shrink them by a shitloadfold. Anyway, have a peek!

Thanks!
