YAY

Hey, I should post some of my characters from the volunteer booklet I did ! They were awesome. That project took a long time. I completely forgot about that.. wow.. Im excited to post! lol YAY

Afternoon !

I "re-found" more supplemental information on the basic head construction. So I worked through Part One, and now I'm moving on to Part Two. Then, I think I'll post my red-inked drawings of corrections and then the revised drawings. That should finish up Lesson One of the $100,000 Drawing Course !! Yay : )

I don't know if I'm going to move on to Lesson Two, or continue doing a study of basic head construction and principles. I want to make sure I have a really solid base before I move on to Squashing and Stretching, which the Lesson Two.

OH YEAH, I also found this Blog http://cartooncave.blogspot.com/ by Pete Emslie . And I came across a posting about Disney's The Princess and the Frog. It was really informative. It was mostly about Eyes, and the proper way to draw them. It's funny how paying attention the the smallest details really bring more life to your animations.

Here's the post : http://cartooncave.blogspot.com/2010/02/drawing-cartoon-eyes.html

All the cool kids have a cartoon character as their profile, maybe I might do that.. maybe.. lol

I lurve Eggs.. lol

The model clay hasn't completely hardened, but I was still able to draw the two faces on them.. check em out.. :)




This helps visual folks like myself.. I can't believe I never thought to do this before now.. smh.. 

Lesson One

Partially finished with Lesson One.. I'm still waiting on my Model Clay to dry so I can draw my faces on to them for a 3d model. It's really quite helpful.
Here are a quick couple shots of  Lesson One.


The directions are to first of course read the material online and in the Preston Blair Book, then complete the Lessons in the PBB. Then compare your drawings to the ones in PBB, while making corrections, then draw again, using the corrections as a reference. Then post it as a link.  I haven't done my corrections or second round drawings yet. 

Ill post those and my eggs shortly. 

A P.S.

The best things about blogs, is that they help you remember stuff you forgot.. lol  Like how I forgot to post some of my daily email drawing lessons.. whoopsie daisies. lol.. Not to worry, I remembered that I forgot.. lol..

well, Back to work.

I think it would be so awesome if I actually got feedback. This drawing course is a few years old, but all the information is there for me to peruse.  Even if I don't, I'll still be completing the Lessons available.

In The Beginning

Started the  $100,000 Drawing Course this afternoon. It felt great. : )
I have to post my finished assignments and stuff, but I'm not done yet. I just to document that I've started it. lol.
