Our SVS Virtual Studio MAY 2021🌷

[txels]

I'm working on character designs for both my upcoming comic project (about a young kid trying to make it as a guitarist...) and my WiP web application project for guitar students (https://fretshare.com).

To begin with, practice drawing various guitarists trying to find the style I want to go for:

My goal this month is to complete the character designs for my first one-page story (5 characters in total). I will be asking for feedback.

My stretch goal is to start penciling in the page.

[kylebeaudette]

@burvantill thank youuuuu! Here's my making of dvd featurette on this one

[Asyas_illos]

@kylebeaudette always inspired by your work. What do you with them once they are finished do you work for a studio? Or do you sell them? Or is it just a personal hobby?

[kylebeaudette]

@Asyas_illos it's a personal hobby. I've sold a few, othertimes I give them to people. Mostly they sit on my shelf. This one I'm mailing off to the artist whose sketch this was based on.

[Asyas_illos]

@kylebeaudette that’s awesome

@PieterVanDerBeek big congratulations! Enjoy the special moment of your life

Here is an update on my comic page... I was trying to finish it last month, but things have been pretty busy on my end. However, I'm pretty close now! Just gotta finish coloring it

[chrisaakins]

Decided to do a MerMay piece with a twist on the Little Mermaid. What if she had wanted to be an astronaut instead?
Here is the edited version

[Asyas_illos]

@chrisaakins cool concept!

[Asyas_illos]

Finished up this big gal today️

[chrisaakins]

@Asyas_illos thanks!

I’ve started “Speed Line and Wash Sketching.” I set my timer and drive in a random direction until the timer goes off. I look for something in the area to paint, set my timer again for 15 minutes or 30 minutes depending on how long I have, and I make a painting. I’m trying to loosen up both in my ink and my watercolor and this is helping.

By the way, @burvantill, thanks for this thread. It's nice to have a place to share the stuff we are doing that may not be Instagram-worthy
