Drawing Slumps

After coming home, and doodling some stuff for layout class, I couldn't get into the groove of character making. I think I'm still kind of behind and just need to draw more to really be comfortable with a reliable style to get my cartoon's going. Aside from that, I did this as soon as I got the sketchbook from Curry's:

I got this image off of tumblr:










































And decided to do a 4-(coloured) page rendition of this gorgeous black and white of this woman.

Not quite finished but hopefully will be done this weekend!

Next up is when I was feeling really out of my element I couldn't sleep and ended up revisiting another sketchbook where just the faintest lines of an idea lay. Glad I kept that page instead of tearing it up so that I could end up with this work in progress. I'm contemplating on shortening her legs so that it looks more proportionate or whether I want to really stylize her into a mannerist genre of lengthy legs.

( I apologize ahead of time for the bad camera phone images, and when I go back to Hamilton this weekend I will bring in my scanner, which really isn't ALL that much better, but should help when there is no sun to take a better photograph and incandescent lighting does not do justice too.)




























I have named her Irina Lysle
(I-ree-nah, Liz-zel)
