In Class We Were Talking About Character Design, And How Shape Strongly Affects The Feel And Personality

In class we were talking about character design, and how shape strongly affects the feel and personality of the character! And so we got to make imaginary friends! If you'd like, write down the personality you think he has. I'm interested in seeing how accurate I was, haha!

It was fun trying to figure out how to make a decent sandstorm. 

Working on my gallery show for October... here are a few sneak peaks at the ideas im generating...

Let us not forget the mermen during marmay.......... (I know it's June First but just go with it XD)

I should start logging my hours with these projects. This was quite a joy to make! I learned a lot of techniques for creating ice effects... However, none were to my liking, so I had to create my own. Ah the joys of Photoshop. It wasn’t meant to be one of my characters, but he suddenly transformed into a revamped version of my old friend: Frazier. He usually wears a blindfold over his difficult-to-create-in-photoshop-eyes. But despite my complaints, it was fun to figure out exactly how they look.

Marked (Preview)

Hope this little preview gets you just as excited as I am! I’ve officially started on my first graphic novel which, for the time being, is called Marked. I’ll be posting pages of the novel weekly on Fridays, so be looking forward to that. 

I’ll give you more of a summary next week with the title page and page one. But I feel like it’s important to say this now: this book addresses mental illness, specifically anxiety and depression. It’s just as much for those who are clinically diagnosed as it is for family members, friends, or anyone who wants to better understand. Hopefully it can help you or a loved one to gain insight on these situations. Please share this with family and friends, and get the word around. I hope to be able to influence as many people as possible! :)

Thank you!
