Portfolio SPAMTIME

Auugh. That's pretty much the extent of my vocabulary after submitting this today. Today was the deadline for the Capilano U animation programs, and I am very sad that my two jobs ate up all of march, because I really could have used more time to work on this. (On the bright side, MONEY.) Honestly? I'm feeling pretty disheartened right now. I think I could have done a much better job with more time (and motivation, what's that word?) I guess I'll get to hear what Cap says in a few weeks time. In the meantime, I'ma be bashing my head against a wall (er, tablet, rather.)


*BANG BANG BANG BANG SOB*
This title page is probably the thing I'm happiest with in my whole damn portfolio. I am liking the sour old lady.
Lifedrawing SPAMMMM




People at the mall where I work. The dinks were particularly uncooperative and did not hold still, so my sketches are crappier than usual. 

Speaking of holding still, Hazy does not. What a bad little rabbit. I think he suffers from rabbit ADD/ADHD.

Drew these on the ferry when I went to visit friends in Victoria. People I was sitting next to thought I was a little bit weird, staring at my hand for one and a half hours. 

So-called "Character Design". I miss being a kid, when your biggest concern was who could make the nicer mud pie in the backyard, trying to beat your brother to the TV in the afternoons and when sitting in the front seat of the car was actually exciting... :P



Want to know a secret? I TOTALLY FORGOT TO PUT THIS PAGE IN MY PORTFOLIO SUBMISSION. FML, FML, FML. Instead of being smart and saving the page into the printing folder, Miss Genius here goes and stupidly saves it into some other random file and hence it was not printed. I could just frikkin KILL myself right now. Out of all the spam here, I was actually pretty happy with these guys. 


Character turnaround that is kind of inconsistent... her butt goes up and down. Grah. But thanks Megoon for helping me with this one :) 


Spaaammmm


Did I sneak some UVic projects in here? Yes, yes I did. Also, I cannot draw perspective, fark


And finally, my photoshop painting stuff. The bottom one will be having a feature on the blog here soon, because I put a lot of time into it and gosh darn I think such an endeavor deserves a post.

Anyways. Going to go boil my eyes now.

  1. AAAHMAZING!! These are great - I'll firebomb the Capilano offices with flaming dog turds if you don't get in, I swear. Excellent naked peeps - is that the boa lady there? Hazy has never looked better. Those hands are beautiful, and your photoshop paintings are incredible - holy crap, talk about details and textures!
    OH so much to OGLE!!! Awesome job, let me know how it turns out!!

  3. LOL - as amazingly fun as it would be to firebomb the place with firey feces, I would completely understand if Cap decided not to accept me. There's a helluva lot of talented peeps that I have to contend with. And yep, Boa lady did make it into a few of those pics... but most of the drawlings I did of her didn't make it in because they were basically just drawings of boas with random arms and legs sticking out. Worst $10 I've spent in my life. But for shizzle I will let you know what the verdict is when I find out. :)

    And thanks, Anon? I can only hope Cap thinks it's decent as well... :P
