The City

So I've actually kind of been working on this audition thing for Sovereign City. I know.

I don't know if anyone really reads this blog, but if you do I actually would like some feedback on this:

I actually have no idea what I'm doing with this style, but I'm enjoying it a lot. But is it confusing or eye-rape-ish? Does it offend? I'd like to do the whole tournament in this style, should I get in. Only hopefully better. You know.

(I'm holding off putting this on DA for now cuz I'm not sure if I'm totally done with it, lawlawlawl)

This'll be her ref pic. Still struggling with the colors. It's tough cuz, like, I'm not even gonna be using her colors, hahaha.

Again, if you're out there, what do you think? I hesitate to give her really bright colors, cuz then she looks less hoboish, but to much grey gets boring. I like a cool color scheme cuz it should make her look like a weakling. c:

Also that ratfaced guy is gonna be in it, as well. Be tee dubs.

Look, here they are together:

Wanted to see how they'd look together in black and white, also figured I should decide how tall they are. Slug's pretty average, Rat's kind of short.

His name is probably going to stay Ratfaced, because it just emphasizes how much he fails at english grammar (even though he actually isn't the one who came up with the name). He's a self-taught ninja and also smelly semi-literate immigrant. c:

Neither of them have superpowers. GOOOOO TEAM HANDICAP.

These are older doodles, but I actually have no decent Rats on the computer. :/ It's mostly right, just his costume's changed.

Rat is kind of a smartass, kind of a flit, kind of a cynic, kind of a goof, and a really bad teammate who will probably be abandoning Slug whenever the going gets tough. He had the Slug devotion once, but he sure doesn't anymore.

Hopefully there'll be a lot more of these two. Cuz I don't have a clue what to do with them outside of this tournament, hahahaha.

So the due date kinda for the com design homework got pushed up from monday to friday. I should work on that.

On the other hand, I'm not happy with it and would probably be happier to NOT have it in that show at all, so maybe it'll be best to NOT turn in on time.

There is so much rage in my heart right now.

Regardless, I'm feeling what I pray is not sickness coming on and really really not up to homework and I've exhausted all my bookmarks. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS.

These wips are probably the nicest looking things to ever grace this blog. :/

I've been doing a painter-y thing in photoshop for that com design project, so I figured I'd take another stab at that digital painting thing for myself. It's immediately easier in photoshop because I know photoshop, even though I know that it'd all look nicer in corel.

The thing about taking a stab at that digital painting thing is that I always lose interest/dislike the work/forget about it and they never get finished. IDK if that's where Killian is headed but it seems likely.

I was looking around and there really isn't enough of my Killian on the internets. I really do love working with him, even if he is totally a guilty pleasure character. His playlist is so powerful. I really can't do anything else when I listen to it but draw/write him.

He looks too clean.

Doodling around with Sovereign City in mind, I realize that I SUCK at this traditional super hero thing.

Honestly, I really just suck at drawing people wearing anything but a hoodie and jeans. Sigh.

He doesn't have a superhero or a regular name yet, and he looks too young here but I like to believe I have him down elsewhere. I like that the ears on his mask and his ears are the same. c:

HAVE TO STOP PUTTING UP NAMELESS CHARACTERS HERE I HAVE NOTHING TO TAG THEM AS. DERRRP.

This won't ever be finished and DA'd because I don't like it enough. I think my standards for DA have either greatly increased, or I just don't bother making nice things anymore. Regardless, this blog is certainly to blame.

I guess I can fill out that housing contract. That'll take up some time. Maybe even the hour I need that could be well spent on homework. c:
