SketchClub #112: Monster princess - sketch

These are not laid out in chronological order.
The ones which are half creature and half
"princess" were the starters. Looking at them now,
they look soooo awkward . . . they must be
junior-highers (hahaha). I have a lot to learn,
but it was a fun exercise.

SketchClub #111: Mongol - final

I tried "inking" in Manga Studio for the first time.
Wow, are those brushes amazing.

SketchClub #110: Mongol - sketch

I liked how some of the Mongolian photos made the Mongols
and their horses look stumpy . . . so I played with it.

SketchClub #109: Presidents Day related - sketch

. . . the horse is cool looking . . .

SketchClub #108: Camelot related - final

I ended up modeling the knight in Maya. This is a base mesh
so he looks a bit chunky. Looking at him several weeks later,
I'm not digging the axe head top and definitely not
the front of the helmet. Must change . . .

SketchClub #107: Camelot related - sketch

Here are some studies . . . I thought it funny how the lower right
stylized one ended up looking more like a ninja.

SketchClub #105: Greek Mythology related - sketch

I decided to study a couple of two lesser known Greek Mythological beasts

SketchClub #104: Grinch family member part 2 - Final

I took the upper left corner silhouette below and colored him . . .
I thought it funny how he ended up with a soulpatch like me . . .

SketchClub #103: Grinch family member part 1 - sketch

Silhouettes again . . . some interesting ideas . . .

SketchClub #102: Arctic/Antarctic part 2 - Final

2.5 hour “Speed” draw and color

SketchClub #101: Arctic/Antarctic part 1 - sketch

Love this silhouette approach!

SketchClub #100: Cyclops part 2 - final

Tried a new coloring method and ended up with a scratchboard look = Blech!

SketchClub #99: Cyclops part 1 - sketch

Trying new approach: starting with silhouettes = totally digging it!

SketchClub #97: "I survived Halloween 2014"

I couldn't settle on one idea . . .

SketchClub #96: Combine a lion, lemur, rattlesnake, hawk and snow tiger

Tough project . . . weird results

SketchClub #95: Pirate part 2 - final

Instead of a "final", I sketched more and came up with a more satisfactory proportion

SketchClub #94: Pirate part 1 - sketch

Trying different angles and proportions . . . I ended up with a midget

SketchClub #93: Zombified Wizard of Oz part 2 - final

Duplication, layers, central lighting . . . a different approach at composition

SketchClub #92: Zombified Wizard of Oz part 1 - sketch

Scarecrow has no brains . . . zombie flying monkey mad

Flying monkey concepts

Scarecrow concepts

Different camera angle on scarecrow . . . See, no brains!

SketchClub #91: Jack Kirby character part 3 - final

This is the general idea . . . unfinished.
