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
