Help




I did some tweaking... which is better? The different is the pink slightly tinting the upper windows. I'm torn. It's slight, but it does change the mood a bit. Opinions?

Lindsay Progess

Hey Linda and everyone. Happy snow day! I need some feedback so here we go!


The first sketch:


Being brought to finish in a way I felt too cold, and was unhappy with:


Testing to see if I could make things feel a little less sterile and stark:



And where I've come to at this point in a test:


Anything that's not smooth here I am planning on smoothing out and making look sharp. So I like where this is going, but I'm not 100% happy with it quite yet. I feel like it's not quite there yet, and I'm worried that my novice foray into the world of background's is looking sort of amateurish. What do you guys think?

I'm going to try this one more time.

This paper's helping me realize a lot about my project. Just to clarify to anyone who might be confused. This is what my final DP will be ~

- 6 or 7 anthropomorphic/grotesque style character designs (360*) -THESE are the finals.
- storyboards for the story they all are a part of which I will illustrate after I graduate.
- preliminary work/sketches in the back of the final book.

How's everyone's papers going? It was hard starting..but its really helping me now. C y'all next week!

PAPERS

Just a reminder - since we are getting close to school starting up again - about your research papers. How is the writing going?

You probably know that reviews are rescheduled for Wed afternoon - Jan 21st. It will be nice to see the work, including what you've been up to lately.

hey guys!
so ive been working on my second piece, among other things.
after some thought, i agree with kerstin's comment on my earlier post. im juggling a few ideas for huitzilopochtli and coyolxauhqui and how i can better intergrate them and make them interact more. huitzilopochtli does decapitate his sister, so maybe ill work with that.

so heres where things are so far --
im working on the star and moon cutouts for the background. the red and purple mola shape is the only thing attached to the background right now
and the bottom stripe of the border needs to be added. 
im pretty happy with coatlicue herself. shes really snakey and textured in person, which i like. 

anyone know when the studios open up again? im assuming they open before the 21st.

Inauguration Day!
