She is finito. An art trade that was way overdue. Spider-Gwen is awesome.

Progress pic!

Sort of…

Watching Disneycember and drawing some Spider-Gwen.

[cjclarkart]

I love lying.

I’ll catch up.

Day 5 on Day 15...what the heck.

[cjclarkart]

Inktober

Been really busy the past week, but still want to finish this. I'll make up for the missed days...hopefully. But I'll at leat get a new pic up by tomorrow or Monday.

[cjclarkart]

Day 3: Jughead and Betty, my first non-canon OTP.

Day 4: MasaeAnela! (Yes, I watch Let’s Plays. Why do you ask, hm?) Decided to concentrate on shading with an underused Copic Sketch marker. I kinda like it.

Let’s hope I get Day 5 up on DAY 5.

Until I get my scanner set up, have two pics of an aged-up Vanellope and my favorite Pikmin 3 girl talking fruit juice. 

I would’ve had Vanellope uploaded yesterday but I found out about Inktober so late that by the time I was done with it, I was super tired. 

Let’s hope I actually keep up with this. I’m super excited, so I think I will! My unofficial theme is fan art that I never got around to...until now. So, expect more than just headshots...hopefully.

Okay. I lied about the 30 day. Been busy. Have some updated art of Akira. Loving the new technique I tried.

30 Day Art Improvement Challenge

I’ve always wanted to do one of these, but the ones I found didn’t interest me, or it was too much. So I decided to make one of my own, that will not only be fun, but also challenging in the areas that I want to improve in (anatomy, scenery, and colour). I hope I can see some sort of improvement by the end of this. If you want to do this too, feel free to do so! Let’s improve togetherr! >:D

—-THE CHALLENGE—-

Draw yourself

Favourite Animal

Draw something you hate to do

Draw a figure with a reference (don’t forget to link back to it!)

Anatomy Study! Draw a part of the body that you have difficulty drawing, 15 times. Choose 5 of them and do 1 skeletal and 1 muscular versions for each (use refs to make it easier)

Draw your interpretation of a character from a novel

Draw a landscape

Colour Study! Draw something with a colour palette (http://design-seeds.com/)

Break! Draw whatever you want

One point perspective (be creative!)

Use a character/monster/whatever generator and draw it

Two point perspective (be creative!)

Anatomy Study! Draw 15 figures of different body types and poses. Choose 5 of the figures and draw a skeletal version. (use refs to make it easier)

Draw a group of people doing an activity (ex. cooking, jump rope, sleeping, etc. BE CREATIVE!)

Halfway there! Colour Study! What’s your favourite season/weather? Draw it, using a colour palette.

Draw someone (can be celebrity, family, friend; but not yourself.)

Anatomy Study! Draw 10 different facial expressions

Draw a weird inanimate object w/ shading and highlights (something that is not a simple/regular shape like circle, rectangle, square, etc.)

Draw an action figure with a reference (link back!)

Anatomy Study! Draw 10 expressive people. Use their face and body to show their emotions (ex. In love, depressed, guilty, nostalgic.. etc)

Break! Draw whatever you want

Go outside, take a walk, take a picture of something, and draw it.

Draw an animal/creature you’ve never drawn before x5

Draw something and shade/highlight in black and white.

Fanart time! Draw your favourite character from wherever and use dramatic lighting

Draw something that tells a story/or has a back story to it

Draw something you’ve never drawn before (ex. Car, bicycle, an animal, a building.. etc) and be creative with it!

Draw a semi-detailed picture of your room.

Colour Study! Draw something and shade/highlight with complementary, analogous, triadic, or tetradic colour schemes. AND if drawing digitally, try to use 1 layer, but I’ll allow you to use max. 3 layers, if anything.

Grab a drawing you drew last year, or the year before, and draw it again to see how you’ve improved!

Sketchdumps, again.

Had some problems with the other three posts, so have a revised edition of some head practice, perspective practice and inks and colors of Bruce, Amy and Rosalina respectively from the TRW series.

[cjclarkart]

And so I dive into my past.

A couple of years back, I was into roleplaying. I was also going through a Wreck-It Ralph phase. This was a drawing I did for an RP I was in on tumblr, which was never finished. My original character in Hero's Duty armor. This took a lot more time than expected, but I guess this is one of those rare drawings that I'm still proud of some time later.

[cjclarkart]

Comparisons, anyone?

Long ago when I was creating my book cover for the first volume of TRW, I was actually going to do all drawings of just ink and colored pencil and put everything else together via my laptop, hence Akira's pic on the left. Some time later, thought, I changed my mind. So, you can consider this just a little example of what I do with colored pencil. (Stupid scanner dimmed my colors)

[cjclarkart]

Inks!

This is actually a WIP of some art that I plan be coloring fairly soon with colored pencil. These are characters for my books. From left to right: Akira Wilson, Cyra Clarke, Mikoto Wilson.

[cjclarkart]

Back to portraits.

This is for some family members, of said family members. I tried some new techniques with this one, particularly with charcoal and lots of hours shading. I concentrated more on face than the clothing, hence the little detail on the collars shown.

[cjclarkart]

And so the influx begins.

A sample of recent digital work of an original character, Akira Wilson, for my book series, The Riverview Witnesses. 

[cjclarkart]

Er...

Yes, I know. I owe my followers big time. Be prepared for an influx of posts for the next week or so (and a less ambitious reblog onto my personal soon afterward)

[cjclarkart]

Wrathful Avians

Goodness, the stress this pic gave me. 

Oh, look! They're so easy to draw! It's just a bunch of shapes. Piece of cake, right?

Not when you've never drawn them before it isn't.

I wish I had a photographic memory.

Anyway, this is for another cousin and I plan to send off to them very soon.

And the darker side on Terence is from my scanner...hopefully.
