Where you been?

It's been some 6 years since I've posted on this blog. 

I've been avoiding it if anything. Forgotten passwords and email accounts being part of the issue. I think I like to keep my internet presence as minimal as possible. Which is why I havnt touched this blog, deviantart, facebook, linked in, twitter or any other website. I dont think I will touch them again, so all that information is very out dated.

It's a shame really, as Ive still been producing art, just not sharing it and this would have been a pretty in-depth record of all of that if I had kept with updating this blog. I have a tumblr, which Ive also been neglecting throughout the past 6 years, but have been posting various anime jazz on for fun.

So what have I been doing since? Working mostly, much sketch booking, posting art anonymously online, commissions, a small amount of 3D art but mostly 2D.
I've been working at an industrial company in their graphics design department.

Below are a bunch of random drawings produced for /ic/. Towergirl threads were pretty fun for random character drawing.

 I cant say if I will update this blog again, but it would be nice if I did.

Got a scanner but not cables.

I have a scanner. But not cables for it. Which is odd, because I used them recently, they've quite literally disappeared off the face of the earth. So I cant really scan any of my sketchbooks. I tried taking some photos but it really doesn't do them justice.

If I happen to find the cables for my scanner. Or a sunny day, I guess I'll re-upload these.

Concepts and Icons

 I thought I'd make a concept for a Walter-white style character, , know has his regular job but than goes and makes meth. I went for a more NPC character, your friendly dentist who sells all sorts on the side. Wasn't %100 on what kind of colour schemes to go with, will come back to it another time.

And I played some Leauge of Legends recently, so I decided to make a bunch of achievement icons, these were my favorites of the bunch. Ill update as I go on this post.

Figure drawing

Some bits from the weekly figure drawing classes I have been attending for the past 3-4 months (or more?). The variety of models is impeccable for £7 a night! I primarily use pen and ink for the 5 minute or less studies, than break into pencil for the later ones. Im pretty pleased looking back on my old sketchbooks when I started the class, its either improvement or shaking off the rust.

Been grinding through alot of sketchbooks recently, having more fun just playing with peoples proportions, making them kind of cartoony. Been trying to get more people out with me for a weekly drink and draw sessions (Coffee shops and pubs), so if anyone is free around Reading, give us a comment.
Untill next time.
