A mockup of a fake cover of the Georgia Straight for my digital illustration class, making fun of the olympics. haha.

for teh skewl newspapier. IMPROV SYNESTHETIC JAM SESSION

photos and anti-poop.

Some photos I took from on top of a mountain. I'm going to make oil paintings out of them. I did them up to look like vintage photos in photoshop using this tutorial: http://veerle.duoh.com/blog/comments/photoshop_vintage_effect/

Here's an anti-dog-poop poster. I stepped in dog poop on the sidewalk the other day and it inspired me to make this. It was for a school public service announcement project.

Playing cards!

These are a couple playing cards I designed for school. The first one was done in watercolour and then textures added from cgtextures.com, second one was photoshop with textures. I don't know why I had to do argyle socks. I just did. Hahah.

right/wrong

Two images for a school project with the theme Right and Wrong. I'll let you decide as to how I interpreted that. (I'll give you a hint, there's not much thought behind it at all. :P)

I just like to draw cute things.

This is going to be used as the title graphic for my website once I'm not lazy and get it up and running, which will hopefully be over the summer sometime. This was done as a "personal banner" for english class.



This is a CD cover I made for english again for a fictional band (named after a Buckethead song, lululululz) and it's not finished. I am going to finish it eventually, but for now you get the half finished version. I actually put effort into it because I wanted to get some sort of personal development out of it, whereas the second image, the back, was made in 5 minutes with an image I yanked off google. Ironically my teacher liked the back a lot more than the front. :P

Anddd a fake bubble tea restaurant menu. I had limited space to put stuff on the menu, so I know it's missing a lot of awesome flavours, but that's all I got. XD

Peter et le loup

CD cover for Peter and the Wolf for school. Outlined with micron pens and coloured/textured hastily in Photoshop. Textures from cgtextures.com.

Something old. ish.

This is something I did for last term for Illustration. It is in "le style Mucha" with some Celtic elements. I realize the designs around the edges suck, and the type sucks, but I hadn't taken typography at that point, hahah. It's done in watercolour/gouache, and I halfassed it the weekend before it was due because I lanned world of warcraft the entire time AND was sick ontop of that, and I went to bed at 2am and got up at 4am to finish it before school. IT WAS A GRAND TIME.

Also I had a FUCK of a time trying to get the segments to line up in photoshop (the actual size is like 20x16 or something) from when I scanned it in pieces. I don't know why but some areas were warped which meant I had to free transform it, and I eventually got sick of things never lining up because once I lined one thing up, another thing would disalign. So this is as good as the scan's gonna get, I'm afraid. Haha.

Blargh;;; the route to Egyptian mythology.

Umm.
So I was really happy with this before I coloured it.

It's a "route to" something project we had in school (in my case I did the route to Egyptian mythology) and we had to find something to emulate or inspire us. I decided to use Josh Cochran because he is rad. It took me a long time to do the linework and I was really happy with it, but I didn't think to scan it or anything before I started on it with the markers, and I was... less than satisfied with the result, so I fiddled in Photoshop a bit and think I may have managed to salvage it a bit by massively tweaking the colours and blending in the smudgy lineart with a papyrus texture.

What do you guys think? I think the only part I like is the Anubis. Because he has dimension, and I like the way I stylized his face. Too bad it got mauled by dark purple marker.

SUMFING NEW?

So... I am FAR too lazy to post any of the other recent stuff I've done, or mostly just too lazy to scan it. I feel like I'm busy but I'm not... THAT busy I guess. It's just that some of the stuff is humungo. :[ and I probably don't like it as much as I should. BUT. you at least get this one. XD Done with marker and white gouache, it was my final illustration for my illustration class last term.

Gouache Illustrations

#1: The reference for this was some freaky, cool looking old woman from a third world country... it ended up turning into some sort of native elder or something, haha. Gouache is fun.

#2: This is based on a character of mine, Mijune, who is the reincarnation of a Shinto dragon god in my story Isle of Skye.

School stuff n' things

One of the graphite portraits I did for illustration. I did two but I don't like the other one as much so I'm only posting this one, lol XD;;



2 crazy self portraits I did for illustration class, done in watercolour with pencil crayon laid on overtop.

ALICEEEE~

Okay. I am still going to post pictures of schoolwork, I SWEAR. I'm just too lazy to scan stuff right now. But in the meantime here's a flyer I did for our Alice In Wonderland themed Halloween party we threw at school. :D I know the text looks like butt but I don't have the actual good version we printed for school.
