So I Felt Like Practicing My Realism Drawing And A New Kpop Band Caught My Attention And I Have To Say

So I felt like practicing my realism drawing and a new kpop band caught my attention and I have to say their song Happy Death Day is my new favourite song at the moment. I decided to try drawing one of the members.

Using the reference picture below and the colour picker tool on clip studio I created this piece, as someone who likes all of their pieces to look as accurate as possible, I found my self redoing lots of parts on this piece as it didn't look right to me. But overall I am proud of this piece.

I'd really like to try drawing the other members in a few more styles to show any progress in my others styles of art.

Who is my Inspiration?

My work is primarily inspired by the South Korean Artist Kim Jung Gi.

*These photos aren't mine*

What inspires me the most with his work is the attention to detail and his use of shade and colour. I want to use his techniques in my work so I watch alot of his tutorial videos and use his techniques with my own style of art.

Edited Wed 5th Oct

Following news found on kim Jungius official instagram. I am saddened to announce that yesterday Kim Jungi passed away in Hospital due to chest pains after touring Europe and then flying to New York.

So I didn't actually mention why I started this blog but as a graphic design student I was asked to do this blog to show my progression through my art and focus on a certain aspect of my skills that I can expand upon. I will continue with this blog after this modual has finished.

SWOT Analysis

SWOT analysis is a strategic planning technique used to help you identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats that are related to your career aspirations and development of skills. 

STRENGTHS -  Internal positive things that you have some control over and can change

Strength 1: producing work and holding self to a high standard

Strength 2: planning pieces of work

Strength 3: using work to channel emotions

WEAKNESSES - Weaknesses are negative factors that detract from your strengths. These are things that you might need to improve on to be competitive.

Weakness 1:  producing finished pieces in a reasonable amount of time / being too picky about small things in my pieces.

Weakness 2: comparing work too much  

Weakness 3: harshly critical over own work

OPPORTUNITIES - External things that you can take advantage of and that are likely to contribute to your success.

Opportunity 1: education

Opportunity 2: other artists with social media 

Opportunity 3: multiple options for inspiration I'm always on tumblr, pinterest, instagram etc

THREATS - Threats are external factors that you have no control over. You may want to consider putting in place contingency plans for dealing with them if they occur.

Threat 1: lack of money/funding

Threat 2: lack of motivation/funding

Threat 3: distractions 

MIND MAP

What creative career are 

I am aiming to be a web comic illustrator, so I am aiming to improve upon my digital design work. 

I can post some short comic strips onto social media such as tumblr or webtoon, however I want to show how my work has progressed before doing this.

Work in progress
