Puppy love! ho ho ho. :3

Digital dump, some studies etc I've done in the last week or so. As always, clicky for bigger images.

These first few are photo studies.





Cropped portrait from an abandoned painting. Might as well show off the part that got rendered, right? :) She is lacking any personality unfortunately, haha.

Hi! Here are a couple of my last projects for the school year. Not 110% my cup of tea, but they were fun to do none the less and I'm proud of them! :)

Here's some posters for graphic design class. It was an exercise to include a preset snippet of information using a typographic hierarchy. The main elements were to be the composer (Glass), the performer (Zukerman) and other information. The poster was to have a 'feel' that represented the composer's musical style - in this case, minimalistic and somewhat repetitive.





The following is a tiny piece of work I did for my Drawing class. A Photoshop render of a kiosk assembled from Extrudex aluminum parts, complete with signage design. Also shown is an exploded isometric view, working as a manual to show how to assemble the kiosk.



The final image was done for my Scientific Illustration class - a fun and interesting topic to explore with digital painting :D! The image displays the breeding cycle of lake midges. They exist as larva in the water for a period ranging from a few weeks to several years. The larva mature into adults under the water, then swim up to the surface to breed. With such abundant numbers, their breeding swarms appear to be huge cloud-like pillars, spanning several hundred meters in height. When early explorers first saw these smoky columns, they thought the water was on fire. As a final published piece, this illustration would be accompanied by explanatory text.


And to end on a less serious note, here are some sketches just for fun. (Clicky for big!) :3

Here's a little update-as-I-go. Lots of other stuff completed since the last update but not enough time to upload it all! So here's a tidbit for now :3

Some fairly straightforward line drawings of a sweat bee. Science! :D
