[a la bapsi]

so lonely. :[


Here's some finished work from ap 2d design.

that's sort of changed, but i'm still having a little enviro-phobia haha

First, Welcome to CGPAD.
You have a good start here but since your thinking about going to an art collage you might want to try more styles then only anime. Drawing lots of different thing in different styles is what they really like to see. So don't just stick with drawing people or chreatures. There plenty of other stuff out there to be drawn!
Ooh and ofcourse you can upload your sketches too

chears

[a la bapsi]

anime?
uh..



here are some highlights from this sketchbook i'm working on this summer.
I hope to finish it before the fall semester at saturday high begins, so I can get a new one with my stipend. :]

...yeah.
if you wanna see all of it, you can check out my conceptart sketchbook. i have the same handle there.

Well, I can't comment much about any probability of acceptance, a la bapsi, but you're sketchbook pieces show that you definitely have a certain instinct about how to make your work creative, and interesting to look at. The best advice, is really just what you already know, and that is to simply keep immersing yourself in the world of art. Before you know it, you will begin to realize that you are picking up on things that you either weren't aware of, or just didn't fully understand beforehand.

sorry for not updating. here's an art dump.

the tard-y photos were from a few nights ago..i had a can of coke and went crazy with red and black ballpoint.. yeah.

after that, i got some major help from a friend of mine on CA, he told me about understand figures in 3d space, so I really tried that out. I need more practice, but it feels so liberating, I learned something!
another friend suggested that i should give my scanned sketches a little bit of color, whether it be a quick paint, or a full render, so i can get over color. x_x so these pages are a little more colorful than usual.
sketching with the thought of painting them in photoshop later made my sketches a little neater. which is great. I feel i've improved a lot this week. 8D

If i didn't get +1 skill from these sketches, I at least got +1 confidence. ;_;
the digital is an oc session with my boyfriend. I'm on the left. lol i couldn't finish, we were both so tired. x_x

Great stuff going on here, I see potential! First id like to say that art school is just a spring board into the industry, but whats truly going to make you a better artist is going to be from your own initiative. As for Critiques all i can say is study and master the basic fundamentals and you will go far! keep at it and best of luck.

gotta get to work on my summer art assignments.

[Potjekaas]

hey a la bapsi,

you're certainly improving! (and gave me one extra sketchbook to check besides the one you have on ca ) Just draw as often and as much as possible and you will get further and further :)

[a la bapsi]

thanks, d. ;D

[a la bapsi]

tried to start some kind of portrait last night. maybe killing two birds with one chipper? [ap art assignment-portrait...mom's birthday gift? x_x]
yeah. i hate when i wake up to something i worked on the night before and "...wtf was i thinking, this is shit!"
but i'll try to finish what i started. her birthday's monday.
...THOSE EYES
UGH
now i remember why i gave up last night on this thing. Dx<

[a la bapsi]

gotta get to work gotta get to work gotta get to work.
oh god school's starting on tuesday. WHY.
also. my birthday's on thursday, though, so yay.
have some crud sketches.
Trying to clean up my lines. Top right is from ref.

[a la bapsi]

rendering: hands, feet, metal.
legs gigantic on purpose, so i'm letting myself off this time for proportion.
but hands would still be small. it might be the hair, but head looks tiny too.
you need to study fashion, hell drapery in general.
it would also help if you thought out your pictures before acting on them.
the sword design is awkward, and really wouldn't function properly if used.
besides. that's not the type of pose someone would be in if they were to carry something so large. it seems to be as light as a feather in this piece. wrong.
</inner critic>

haha honestly. i'm sick of looking at this thing. time to start something new, and maybe get back at this later for refining and fixing. :]

MY BIRTHDAY'S ON THURSDAY GUYS

[a la bapsi]

Yeah. Brought my tablet to school today, doodled on one of my art class's supernew supernice mac computers. i never want to go back. ;_;
the screen was dimmed. I really didn't want the random classmates to watch. which they did anyway. >_> so that might explain why the values are so off >[ oh well.

yay for doodles of a 17 year old

[AwesomCherryBlossom]

DDUUCCKKYYYYY, yay happy birthday ^-^
I like your creativity :D
I like the first one in your latest post o_o
