Having been grounded one too many times, little Becka Stewart ran away from home into the woods surrounding her house. She knew she lived in the heart of Bigfoot territory; she had always dreamed of seeing one, but she had never thought she’d come to live with one. While out on her journey away from home, she came across an elderly Bigfoot whom she promptly named Mr. Fuzzums. They bonded instantly.
After a month in the woods, search crews determined Becka must have passed on through some means or another. However, there is no shortage of Bigfoot hunters. Here we meet our two park rangers, Mavis and Dale. They take advantage of their free reign through the wilderness to spend time tracking Bigfoot. Fortunately for Becka and Mr. Fuzzums, Mavis and Dale are too stupid to manage to procure any evidence of Fuzzum’s existence, regardless of how many times they meet.
Fuzzums and the girl spend their free time playing tricks on the two imbeciles. Episodes of the show would be reminiscent of Looney Tunes shorts including Roadrunner & Coyote or Bugs & Daffy.
Cottage
Treehouse
Victorian House
Our assignment was to draw/paint three environments with specific types of houses. One of these had to be colored. I tried painting straight away for the cottage painting, whereas the other two are closer to how I am most comfortable drawing.
Here is my research. Unfortunately, I failed to save any ideation… these pieces grew out of sketches I was doing.
Pretty quick edit to throw these guys into an environment. New project assigned tomorrow!
Just sketches, but that’s all that was asked of us. The bike in 3/4 view was a pain!
For this assignment, we had to design a character, their sidekick, and their means of transportation (preferably something mechanical, as opposed to biological.) The description of the characters is in the image itself.
We also have to do turnarounds, like I did with Venom. I should have those done by Wednesday.
Here’s my ideation… not much here, ’cause I really liked the first silhouettes I came up with.
And here’s my research sheet.
For this assignment, we had to take the character from the previous assignment, and do three turnarounds for them. One had to be their normal costume, another their street clothes, and the last a totally different costume (preferably from a different time period or culture). I’d say being a male stripper is different enough from killing Spiderman.
I tried to keep the toddler proportions for the body while keeping him buff… He ended up looking like a teen in the Eddie Brock version. Oh well.
Here’s my reference sheet.
I didn’t get as many expressions done as I had hoped to. It’s tough to get a lot of emotions out of Venom’s face. But! At least I colored them.
For this assignment, we had to take an existing super hero or villain, and either make them young or old. We’re also doing a facial expression sheet with it. Above are some sketches I did in class, today.
And here’s some of the art I pulled for research.
