Have a pony in a box.
A few bits of concept work Ive been fiddling with to help me draw the Wreck It Ralph characters in my own style for an Ask Blog Im working on via Tumblr. Its quite fun to do these sort of expression sheets every once in a while.
Steampunk/Victorian Frog. The lesson focussed on anthropormorphic design, and I decided to keep the frog's anatomy still rather frog like apart from the hip and shoulder structure, twisting it to be more humanoid. Its only slightly steampunk, with a more victorian feel. Its kinda how I like Steampunk, not over adorned with cogs gears and steel.
A smoking bug using the textures painting technique from the FengZhu tutorial we were shown. Did about 5 attempts at this... seriously fustrating...

 I tried to use each of the 3 reference pictures we were given as textures behind the painting, used for colour reference and also reference on how the 'flesh' worked. I still think I made mine a bit too smooth.... but it was better than my first attempt...

Lizard Warrior done for tuesday lesson. FengZhu lineart originally, just painted over. The lighting on some of the fiddly bits like hands and feet still makes me cry but I think its probably one of the better things Ive painted..

I think the tonal value needs to be improved... Highlights primarily...

Star Wars Land Speeder. Perspective practise. The Lineart is actually the original sketch layer just recoloured black as it shows the small amount of construction I used.
 And a 2 point perspective of the USS Enterprise (bad colours I know, but I winged that). A bit of a pain, especially the engines....
