SR, yet again.

So instead of doing anything truly productive, today turned into an Art+Gaming day.  Honestly, I'm okay with that.  Needed the recharge.  No reference, Sketchbook Pro followed by Artrage.  Many, many iterations...worked on this in small to medium chunks all day. 

Airports and practice

Worked on this whilst waiting on planes.  Or on planes.

  From a Katie West self-portrait.  That girl seems incapable of taking a bad photo.  Anyways, good practice.

Speedpaint(-ish)

From ref, as always.  Trying to figure out harsher lighting, and trying to do it without absolute dedication to the reference.  Meh.
On the plus side, this was a really great relaxer after a taxing few days.  Maybe 2 hours or so?  On the tablet, all Sketchbook Pro.

EDIT: Yes, I am aware of the awkwardly short and unfinished right arm.  Ignore it, like I do.

More SR character stuff

All digital, using the full array of software i have at hand.  sketchbook pro, artrage, ancient PS.  No reference, which explains the wonky features & general cartoonishness.

Nouveau Samurai & Gunso sketches

Presented as evidence that the Fallout project is ongoing.

2012 sketches

 Two sketches from ye sketchbook. Crappy photos of 'em, at least.

2012: A Retrospective

So there we go.  That's my "finished" output of 2012, including a couple pieces that I haven't posted before (either because they were personal or were for a project that hasn't released). 
I am strangely ambivalent about these.  35 pieces over a year, a bunch of them just doodles.  Some with HOURS AND HOURS logged.  35 pieces.  Just under 3 a month, then.  I think I can do better.
Like many a hobbyist, my finishing details are getting a lot better.  But the fundamentals are still really weak; back to work!

As comedy, here's the partial of the projects I spent a lot of time on this last year and still haven't finished:

As stated:  back to work!
