Illustrations: Jon and Me

One of my drawing goals is to develop an "cartoon" version of Jon and me. Here's my (very rough) progress thus far.




I actually figured out how I wanted to render Jon pretty quickly. I'm still working on getting him drawn consistently, but I like how his features are represented. I had more trouble getting myself figured out, as you can see below.




I finally stopped failing quite as badly as I usual today. I think I've finally gotten most of my features figured out except for my eyes. I can't tell if I want the pupils to be circular or elliptical. But still, progress is being made!!



And on this page, I was playing around with integrating anime style expressions. (Anime expressions are totally the best!! ^_^) I'd say I've achieved moderate success on that front but I have a lot of work a head of me before I get into a good grove.


That's it for today. I'm off to watch the newest episode of The Legend of Korra on the interwebs and eat rice and sweet potatoes for dinner.

sincerely,
me

  1. Hi how are you?

    I was looking through your blog, and I found it interesting, and inspiring to me, so I thought why not post a comment. I have blogs also obviously, and would like to invite you to become my blog friend.

    I mostly post about the California experience through the perspective of personal writings, and my art.

    Maybe you can become my friend, and follow, and I can also follow you, if that is okay.

    Well I hope to hear from you soon… :)
