Character Design Final

My final for Character Design. I've had this story floating around in my head for a while and would like to develop it further. 

Blocking Cont.

Still working on this little scene. It's been a whole lot of fun!

Blocking

So this is my first 3D animation I've done since I've been back. Now it's just blocking, but it's been fun! I got some good critique to apply to the next go around that i'll be posting soon.
It's good to be animating again!

Of Horses, Sweets, and Zuni Deer

It's been a while since i've updated, so here's a little peek at school work. 

I've been drawing a lot of animals for class lately. I love sketching animals!

We designed animals for Ryan's character design class:

And then came emulation. First I chose fun comic book artist Scottie Young: 

Then decided to try Sean Galloway's style:

For Joe's class, we had to redesign our toys to be miniature figures.

And i've been drawing a lot of fun work on the side as well. Here's me as a racer from Sugar Rush, the game in Disney's Wreck It Ralph. 

And a quick WIP run cycle of my egyptian horse design.

                                        

More school work and fun stuff

Here's an update on schoolwork. Character design class has been a blast lately, as we've been animating gifs of our heroes and villains designs! 

Shape drawing: 

Caricatures: 

Digital painting is quickly becoming one of my favorite classes. Here's the eye of my wolf character as a quick detail practice:

And the midterm: 

Drawing for animation is such a fun class as well. Here we had to draw imaginary friends: 

Emulate Charlie Harper: 

And design a vinyl toy to the theme of "dangerously cute". This was my first attempt: 

Cute, sporty even. But not too dangerous.

And my final: 

Taking all of these art classes has given me back my motivation to draw. Here are some things I did in my spare time. 

Inspired by Craig Thompson's Le Carnet de Voyage, I decided to comic form my own experiences in life. It's more fun than writing in blank pages, anyway:
