Really liking how you're using the light from the windows in that one!

Thanks! :D As for my next piece, I revisited Lily Graham Bell (my mom's actual cat lol) and tried revamping her a bit. This is more or less her official design now and was a long time coming.

It's not my best work, but I did a quickie of Enzo the other night trying to get away from my original character style formula. 2015 has many new goals for my art and studies. I also officially got the ball rolling for the graphic novel I'm hoping to start within a year with my writer. The story is currently under development, and I'm excited to see where it goes. It's big plans, big project....for a long damn time.

Welp, it's a new year, so new designs! Let me just say........Titus got a huge redesign, and he's not exactly a good guy anymore...or maybe his cigarette just tastes bad. :P

Started as a volume/perspective exercise...evolved into this.

I also wanted throw this up here showing my last year of progress. I began drawing seriously last January. This was my 12 month progression. I think I cleared at least 1000+ drawing hours. This is what happens when you work hard for something....I think?

Here's to another year, and never give up!

You made quite a progression here :-o. I really like how your style is turning out, especially in shading, lighting the scene and overall the quality of the drawing.

I really like the last 2 draws that you did, the ones about volume studies (they're starting to have muscles!) but It's just my opinion. Keep working! Good work.

Thanks. I still have a long way to ago, especially tuning my fundamentals. I also have a lot of color theory to work on for backgrounds. I'm trying to build an exercise into everything I draw...and refrain from finishing too much. Draw more, polish less!

BTW, I did the 25 Expression Challenge with Enzo. It's not perfect, but a start. This took awhile. :P

Worked on a concept for my graphic novel. This was about 4 hours of work.

Tried my hand at more expressions, style, and the fundamentals in these sketches. Here's Arlo obsessing over getting a good drink.

Thanks lol. A little booze can bring his charm out. I also started on Lily, one of the few people that actual understand Arlo.
