Not My Intention, But Fruitful None-The-Less

So, I may not have entered the world of real human models and subjects today, but I did produce a few relative drawings and concept art none-the-less:

The beginning concept sketches of Aitch and Zee.

Same as the first...

The first preliminary storyboard for the original concept born almost a year ago.

More facial and body components for the web comic.

Since I spent most of the day watching bleach from the beginning again, I thought I may take a stab at drawing some concept sketches.

more photos of the sketch....

more....

tirelessly working...

adding more to the sketch...

based off season one...

I must say gomen, this is the first time I have ever sketched characters from bleach other than Kon...

So, I added Kon lol

And, sharpened the lines so my camera would pick them up more....
As for tomorrow, I did promise the little munchkin that I would finish my part of the "Mommy and monster" painting, so that is what I shall do.  I hope to sketch  more tonight and post more tomorrow, but for now, I will go back to drinking Fall beer and watching Bleach from the beginning all over again.

Happy Pre-Halloween!!!

Some Concepts and Beginnings

Well, I spent a portion of my day getting up the Aitch and Zee blog and creating some "Web Comic" templates together on my design computer.  After all that, I took a short dinner break, watched some Hulu and Crunchy Roll programming, and finally, after two five-minute concept sketches, I began scouring the internet for images to use as concept subjects for my newest endeavors.

First, my search lead me to look for legs.  This is hard to do, let me tell you.  You must be very mindful of the search criteria or else you just end up with porn; not fun. =)

My second set of searches had me looking for arms.  Less stringent search parameters gave me a few models to work with.

Tomorrow I will begin some serious sketching on much larger paper, but for now, here are the very preliminary sketches for the two newest pieces:

This is the second piece I will work on and will take a considerable amount of time to complete.  Trying to get arms and the chins to form a "heart" shape in the center may prove to be difficult, or at least on small paper it was.

I already had the general concept down for this first piece.  The idea came to me while lounging by the pool with my behbeh on vacation.  When you are in love, it is hard not to let it seep into your ideas and creative outlets, I suppose.
 Now, I am off to bed and hoping to have a fairly productive day with my giant pads of sketch paper, my musical muses, and my trusty sketch pencil!

I hope to get more up tomorrow, perhaps even work on some of the lingering pieces if I don't get to tired.  You will just have to check back and see!!!

Some Magic in the Works

Currently, I am working on some concept sketches for a new painting and started the storyboards for four (4) episodes of a long talked about Webcomic.

Once I clean up a few of the concept pieces, I will add them to this page.  For now, if you are interested in the Bloggish Webcomic, you can reach it at:

Back to the sketch pad for me!

Vacation is No Excuse....

...but I am using it anyway.

Hopefully I can get back on track and not be such a slacker with my artistic blog...

We shall see next week.
