Catching Up

Well, my plan to stay on track with this thing fell off the rails a bit huh?

But even though I didn't post on Thursday or Friday, that doesn't mean that there wasn't sketching being done.

I got a page of sketchbook time in on Thursday, but wasn't able to get anything done Friday. However I did get a page of drawing done today.

I'm pretty sure that it might be hard to get my sketching done this next week as work is going to keep me CRAZY busy to make up for this week of snow days. Just a warning.

So, here is content for those days, just a little late.

The Intertubes are Frozen

Hello again. Tonight is another mobile update for me. The snowfall our neck of the woods received (all day) managed to cause a power surge that killed our Internet. And our ISP is closed due to the weather.

I didn't get another sketch posted last night as our daughter kept waking up and the GF and I got sucked into the first season of Fringe.

But I did get some sketching done today. More Song of Ice and Fire character sketches.

Hope ya dig. And that you are staying warm.

Later.

Tuesday Mobile Update

Good evening everyone. Sorry about not posting yesterday, the plan to move my sketches over via my phone hit a small snag.

So, here is my sketch of Cammy from Friday along with a page of sketches I did last night. I have a few sketches going today that I will post before bed. It's been an interesting snow day here that actually kept me pretty busy. But I will have something to post for today before I hit the sack.

Hope ya dig the doodles.

Snow Day

Good morning everyone out there still bothering to come around to my little corner of the internet.

I know what some of you are thinking. I didn't get my sketch posted Friday and I probably didn't even do one. Well, that's not exactly true. I did do a quick 5 minute sketch on Friday inspired by a cosplay video I saw on kotaku. But I didn't get the chance to upload it onto my blog at work and when I got home I found that I am still unable to connect more than 4 devices to my wifi router (for some reason). And those spots have been taken up by my Mac mini, Apple TV, PS3 and the GF's iPhone.

However, this morning I did have an idea. I am going to move my sketch to my iPhone, then transfer them to my Mac mini for the update.

I also want to do another sketch today (obviously, since I need to get back in to the whole 'sketch a day' process) so I'll try and do another update sometime later on.

Till then, if you are also finding yourself not at work due to some awesome snow, go have fun in it. And be safe.

Sketches of Ice and Fire

Happy New Year everyone!


Wow, I was really not very good about updating my blog last year huh? Well this year I'm going to make an effort to be better about not neglecting this thing. Granted, I'm not off to a very good start in that regards.


Work has been really good at keeping me excessively busy. And every time that I think I've got it sorted out, the monster reveals its self to be more of a hydra rather than the normal dragon that I was expecting and I get to start the chaos all over again.


I haven't been to my martial arts in a few months, and I'm not sure how this month will fare in that regard either. Probably not well.


But that being said, I am going to be trying to get back on track with my sketch a day.


To help prove that I'm not completely ignoring my sketching, I have some pictures of some sketch book pages that I was able to get done over the past few weeks.


And of course since I'm working my way through the rest of the books in the A Song of Ice and Fire series (currently into book 3), and anxiously waiting for the first season of the show (Game of Thrones) to be released from HBO, the sketches are all of characters from this series.


Hope you all dig the sketches. I'll hopefully be seeing you all again soon, with new sketches in tow.

Who is this? Where am I? What's going on?

Well well well. Lookit here. Someone found their way back to the internet and actually managed to update their blog.


I hope I didn't cost some of you out there any money (placing bets that I have completely abandoned this project). But if I did, well, shame on you for betting against me.


And not offering me a cut.


Anyway, I have done some sketches. Not much, but some. It has been a crazy ending portion of a year for me. Work has been, chaotic and unpredictable as of late. And one of my family members has just been diagnosed with cancer and is undergoing surgery tomorrow. And that's just a few of things worth mentioning.


But I have done some sketches. And since I'm sitting here at work waiting for something to reproduce, and then will be on the phone with my family for the next little while, here is a small dump of them. I have an actual physical sketchbook page to add to this as well, but I haven't taken a picture of it yet. So you have that to look forward to.


Anyway, hope ya'll dig these sketches. And I'm hoping to get some more done on my holiday break.


See you tomorrow.

Appologies

Wow. I'm at a loss for words. I have seriously neglected this poor blog o' mine.

I mean, seriously. If it were a child, CPS would have been called and it would be taken to a safe place, where it would receive warm blankets and hot food. While I spent some time in a hard, cold cell awaiting my fate.

Despite work being pretty crazy lately, I have been albe to fire up CS3 form time to time. I didn't get a sketch finished, but I have been working on a sketch of the character Shi the past few days. A minute here, two minutes there.

I have plans for the sketch that hasn't gotten realized yet, but I am hoping to get some time on it tomorrow. Perhaps while my daughter is taking a nap. We'll see how that goes.

Till then, hope you all have a good evening and a great weekend.

Making up for lost time

Well, well, well. Look who finally got back around to his blog.

That's right. I'm back for a new update everyone (who's still bothering to come by my moderately neglected corner of the internet). And this time I'm bring you three sketches of varying content.

The first is from the other weekend, and was done while my daughter was taking a nap. We had just finished watching some more Avatar (which we finished last weekend, and it was AWESOME!). So I did another sketch of Ang and Katara practicing some tai chi / water bending.

The next sketch is from yesterday and was the product of only a minute or so. I was rather busy and my sketch-break ran very short. So it is nothing more than a gesture.

And lastly, is a series of sketches I did today. I wanted to treat it more as an exercise of warm-ups. Just to keep my hand moving on the page, not getting attached to anything and keep doodling till my break was up.

I also got a request for some artwork at work, so I will probably start working on that sometime soon as well.

So on that note, I'm gonna call it a night. Hope you all dig at least one of these sketches, and I'll see you back here next time.

A Mobile Update; Attempt 1

Hi there internetland. I'm using the Blogger app for tonight's post.

Thanks to a topsy/turvy day at work I didn't get a digital sketch done. But I did do some sketchbook sketching over the weekend, so here is a posting with that page. Hope y'all dig and I'll see you back here tomorrow.

Sketch Dump

Good evening to those of you out there who happened by my digital dojo tonight. I hope you all are well and having a splendid time in these final hours of a very beautiful Friday (here in the Pacific Northwest).

I'm very sorry to say that I didn't get my sketching or blog posting, done as originally promised this week. But I did manage to sit down with the ol' Bamboo tablet and rapidly aging stylus to do two pages of random sketches.

The first was done yesterday during my lunch break, while the second was done today during one of my regular breaks. In between working on document outlines and reading project documents.

I hope you all get a kick out of em'. There was some fun stuff here. I was particularly entertained by sketching the minotaur head on page 2.

So until next week. Have a great weekend.
