The good guys aka TEAM POLICE - Project LO

Hello out there! :D


Group photo time! XD I really like group pictures, but they're sometimes so annoying to draw ;) The only thing I love more is creating new characters, YAY! Seriously it's so hard to not bulk the story with unnecessary background informations about every single one of them XD .... but hey, short stories are always an option.. 8D

So, these are Captain Wu's best guys and girls ;)

Currently working on their profiles and storyboarding the first chapters .... building castles takes time.

See you next time! :D

A portrait of a fellow student

Heyho everyone! :D

I'm here again! ^^ After some cramped time with moving out and moving in there is some light on the horizont that it might be better soon. YAY!

But I still need to find a desk and a chair so that I can work on my PC again (yeah, I see the benefits of a laptop now... but who wants to work on a cintiq using a laptop?! 8D)

Anyways, some while ago (like, MONTH) I made a scribble of one of my teammates, because she is really pretty and wears such cute chlothes and has a great style so I just had to draw it XD

And finally worked it over in ps (getting better with digital inking, YAY). 

So, meet Beyzar! :D

Also, she wears hats! Instant bonus points in sympathy XD
What do you think? ^^
Love you all! :D

Collaboration time!

Hello everyone! :D

Back again unusually fast ;)

Last week I stumbled across a nice lineart, and because I'm working on my coloration skills, I asked the artist Ralf Singh wether he'd like to see a colored version of his lines.
He said yes, and here's the result :D  Check out his stuff, he's got more cool linearts and is working on a comic project!

Photoshop only :)

This was great fun! I'd like to do sth like this again ;) Somebody has some great lines for me to color? XD Just leave me a message and let's talk ;)

Everybody, have a nice week! Take care :D

YAY, another experiment!

Yay, splatter splatter bang bang BOOM!

Or, what happens if you find a rough lineart on your pc and have too many PS-brushes and patterns you didn't try out. 8D

What else? I'm in panic and looking for an internship (maybe I'll link you my portfolio at some point) and my life is a mess of moving out, fighting paperwork, finding money to buy food and similar stuff. Gah, I'll be so glad that this will be over soon.

...I guess I don't have much to say today. Stay tuned. See you next time. I love you all!

Shading tryout.

Actually I don't have much to say today. I'm desperatly trying to throw together an usable portfolio so I can go become a trainee somewhere for 6 month... guess I'll tell you more on that topic in a later post, so back to this one. (But if anyone has a hot tip or advice or anything for a design/illustration/2D animation internship, just contact me ;) )

It's just trying out colors and shading. Who cares for backgrounds! (or swords for that matter)

Strage pose is strage although I drew this one with help of a stock photo. Also I think the foot is either enormously stretchable or broken. Ouch.

Take care! :D 

Captain America - Animation Video!! :D

SO!!

Hello dears, long time no see!
The last weeks were a little hard, bc the examination period is a little earlier here, and it's nearly OVER! :D and then the whole application stuff for an internship starts.... aaahhhhh AND WE WON THE WORLD CUP! YAY! :D

Anyways, we had to make a viral video for one of my courses - no further restraints, except it has to reach about 1000 views in a week - and bc I'm not doing any animation for my film class this semester, I decided to do a flash animation film, YAY! And because I'm a nerd, I made the new Captain America movie the topic of it XD (you'll find the vid on the bottom of this post! ;) )

So I started with some simple sketches ....
<--  like this

  .....and put some layers of lineart and color on top....

 like that -->

.....and at the end of the day*, after hours of drawing and trying to get the backgrounds that people would somehow recognize what scene that might be, I had results like this:

.... this...

....stuff that is more dramatic....

....and some stuff that is more fun XD.

Luckily I had a great help with all the animation stuff - thanks again for that, Jule! :D You're my saviour ;) AND WE GOT IT FINISHED, FINALLY!!

Share, leave a like or a comment, criticize or just enjoy! ;)

Have a nice day! :D

*It's just a phrase, we didn't made that thing in a day, more in like a couple of days without any (or with very little) sleep and with lots and lots of energy drinks and coffee intus... 8D

Welcome to the jungle...

....because why not.

I promised videos, but I still didn't post any. WHY?! Because of some uncertain reasons I cannot link them here, and we don't know for certain why, but since I don't have admin rights for the account they're uploaded on (it's the schools acc) I have to wait till others fix that problem. But it's worked on!

So anyways, have some weird experiment pic now. Still trying to get into digital painting. I don't even want to be photorealistic like others, but it's still tricky to make stuff look good.

So what do you think?
Cool or crap? Let me know! :D

See you next week ;)

WOOOOOOOSH HAIR

Hellas fellas!
So some time ago I was really excitet, because after that flop of getting into illustration classes I was going to work on an animated music video with a group. Unfortunately they're going with a live action idea now, which on the one hand is really cool, on the other hand not what I wanted to do in this group... damn. I like that project, it's very artsy black-white-gay-expressionism-stuff, but still...ANIMATION WHERE DID YOU GO

What to do?? Well if I can't do movie shorts, I'll go for gifs instead :< Remember my last post, where I showed you my new wallpaper? I thought it'd be cool if the hair was moving, and I couldn't sleep, so I did this:

But - I still couldn't sleep, and it bugged me that it was so stutter-y, so I did this one straight afterwards:

SO MUCH WIND IN THIS HAIR

WOOOOSH
YAY

What do you think? Which one do you like better? :D

Take care, see you soon <3

Mah new PC wallpaper

YEEEEAAAHHHH!

Since I'm drawing basically nothing else than storyboards and rotoscoping, I'm actually getting better at sketching on digital surface directly.
So I started doodling around and after a couple of minutes I had my new wallpaper:

But since I have 2 monitors, I needed a second one and spend another 15 minutes drawing this.

They are rough and sketchy and spontaneous and I love them. Personally I think these are some of my best works of the last months. There may have been more complex and time consuming stuff, like the stuff I did for my courses, but this is how I love to draw. Only pencil is better.
 What do you think? :D

NEXT will be a complication of videos I've  produced with various teams on my courses, so you'll finally see what I'm doing all day long when I'm not posting on this blog ;)

Take care of yourselves!

Dusk and dawn

Gooood morning friends and followers!

Yep, it's been a while again, uah. No excuse for that.
But I'm trying to do some quality contend again, why I tried so sign up for illustration classes again - tried, because I don't know yet if I'll be in it. Apparently there are too many students applying for that class this year, so they have to do a small application procedure fist. So much for "free choice of classes"! Meh.

Anyways, I helped a group of film students with their motion graphic, so there'll be possibly a short animation to look at again :D
Btw, people seem to love animation, my miniclip of a ballerina got more than 1,000 notes on tumblr, (Thank you for that!) while the rest of my posts got barely 10, or even less >o<

BUT ANIMATIONS ARE EXHAUSTING!!
 So have some still standing pics again ;)

Yah, these two again.
Emma is waiting for the night to come, while Locks is still laying awake in the morning light.

First I just wanted to draw a pic of these two, standing somewhere smoking cigarettes, but somehow it turned out to be like this. They are similar, but somehow on different paths, in the same boat but turning in different directions.
The light setup was a new one, and I feel like I'm getting better in skipping the analog step of sketching, to a complete digital pic. What do you think?

Have a nice sunday ;)
Take care!

First post of the new year ;)

Happy new year!

Yeahhh it's a little too late, but the last time was - is - still stressy... ^^° But I've got some stuff in the backhand I'll post at the end of semester so that you can see what I'm working on all day ;)

ALSO - For some reason, I couln't answer comments the last time, so pls don't be sad/angry that I didn't react, I'm working on the problem ^^; In the meantime you can stalk me on several other platforms and chat with me there ;)





So, what do I have for you this time...?
Composition-scribbles :D

The first one is my favourite :D

As I said before, I did the storyboard for my film classes and I really like the format. Also I love pictures that look like movie stills, when characters are not just posing or something but are acutally doing stuff... It's more dynamic and lifelike and everything, and I have a looooooooong road to go till I get there XD But it's fun! I hope I'll have some more time in the semester break...

So, serious stuff next time. Until then - Happy January! :D
Take care! ;)
