in which i'm watching star wars

so i've finally taken a few pictures of my figure stuff, as well as my final project from intro to illustration.
here we go! off to neverland!

Contextual Figure Drawing:
made by covering the page and erasing away. i really like this one.
charcoal; model: can't remember her name, but she was good.
from the last drawing day of figure.
charcoal; model: don't know her name either, but she was super thin!
charcoal, black conte, white conte; i believe this model's name is Barry.
charcoal; model: Annie, one of my fave models this semester.
one of my other favorites i did this semester.
white conte; model: that girl that looks just like a fairy.
Introduction to Illustration:
acrylic.
the final project was to take a nursery rhyme and spin it into something completely different. this was mine:
Jack be nimble.
Jack be quick.
Jack FAIL over a candle stick.

that's all, folks! i'm supposed to be designing and building spacey, death star-esque sets for the Great Escape this summer. if they turn out okay, i'll post pics. :)

Wow, that first figure looks great. I like the concept and point of view on the Illustration, but I feel like it could use some darker values. What medium did you do that in, acrylic, caran d'ache, watercolor?

it's acrylic. part of the problem is the picture quality. *was too lazy to scan it* ^_^'

Are you doing some concepts for sci-fi version of the Great Escape? Sounds like it could be pretty fun.

I'm working with two friends of mine, a concept artist and a write, to get down the basis for a universe this summer. Progress is inhibited by the Glass Fellowship and the Illustration Academy, but it is progress nonetheless!
