Homework Sketch Dump 13 + Crafty Time

More sketches from my homework. This is a bit late but I had to throw out something since I’ve been slacking on these posts among other things. I suppose I was in a crafty mood over the weekend since I was able to make 2 sketchbooks using the Coptic stitch which sort of fit into this leather wallet I found at the thrift store to make into a little travel book. XD It was actually kind of fun! I didn’t do anything else I was supposed to do which is bad but at least I did that since I’ve been…

Review: Rhodia Weekly Notebook Calendar

Ok this will be the last calendar review I’ll do for awhile. I won this great calendar at http://blog.europeanpaper.com and have decided to keep it for lists and other notes since I already have a calendar I want to use for this year. I love Rhodia’s paper so this calendar was not a let down in quality. This is a nice cover, very much like the Moleskine. I prefer the inconspicuous black versus the bright orange, just my opinion but the orange is nice too. The cover is what I describe as a semi-hard cover. It bends slightly but it’s…

Finished Sketchbook + 2011 Sketches

Ok, so I meant to have a more substantial post this past week but before I knew it, it was already Tuesday so you guys get a sketch post! I also meant to write up something during the weekend but I got distracted….>_<;; I know, bad excuse. Anyways, still trying to get back into the swing of things. I was able to focus and on getting a tiny bit of inking for Citlali’s story and some toning for Eilam’s story. I also was able to write a bit of Blindfolded Love but nothing all remarkable considering the time I had…

Ohayocon 2013 + Homework Sketch Dump 12

Been slacking a bit this past weekend due to Ohayocon. It was pretty cool. I was not at all able to keep up on writing for Janowrimo which I’m not too surprised as I fell behind awhile ago. I have been able to get some journals/sketch pages in but I’m still behind on those too. Need to catch up on that. Gotta do those daily! So I got to see some old friends and meet some new ones at Ohayocon! As you know I wasn’t as eager to attend this con this year so was debating whether or not to…

Review: Quo Vadis Scholar Basic Calendar

I won a free Basic Scholar Planner from Quovadisblog.com! I was really lucky to win a couple of planners but this one I gave to my Mom. 🙂 In the first picture I was comparing it to my Quo Vadis Space 24 Planner and actually it could fit the cover as a refill if I wanted which is extremely nice but could stand on it’s own with a fairly thick cover. As you can see it is fairly eco-friendly with 88% of it made from recycled materials and made in the USA. Here is a close up of the nice…

Homework Sketch Dump 11 + Janowrimo Progress + Ohayocon 2013

I haven’t been very good at deciding what blog posts to write as of lately. I’ve been meaning to write blog posts ahead of time but I’ve been working on other things. For instance, I’ve been able to do some beta book reviews although I was a bit late on the deadlines. Still managed to get that done and a few other library books I’ve been meaning to read. Still haven’t really made a dent in the pile of books I’ve wanted to read. I will be able to get to more of those eventually. XD I’ve also not been…

Nanowrimo Ends but Janowrimo Begins!

So I was about to erase my dry erase board before I decided to take a picture which is why there is a white space where a line should be between Monday and Tuesday. XD Sorry about that. haha My first Nanowrimo was a failure for 2012. I was attempting to write my version of Beauty and the Beast called Wildly Charming. I’ve been procrastinating on this post for far too long. I should have wrote this blog post right after the event. haha It wasn’t a complete failure though since I was able to get to 12,477 words. I…

Homework Sketch Dump 10 + Happy New Years

Sorry guys, I had meant to write a more profound blog post but I just haven’t had the time and looks like I won’t have any time until after the New Year. 🙁 So here I am throwing out another sketch dump. I honestly didn’t expect to be this busy the later half of my break. The first couple of days were so leisurely but I was still working. I’ll probably will be able to get more work done after the new year. Been falling behind on my sketch page a day challenge. I need to make up 3 pages.…

Homework Sketch Dump 9 + Happy Holidays!

Sketches I had to do for my 3D modeling homework at school. These sketches were all copied from Bridgman’s Complete Guide to Drawing from Life. It’s interesting to learn to draw from it. Hopefully it improves my anatomy. XD Sorry, wasn’t able to get a good blog post this week so  you get mostly sketches! I’ve been able to start comicking again which is great. Slowly but surely. I’m hoping to be able to get a lot of work done over the break if possible. Comic or novel. Either would be great. 😉 Oh I bought myself a bunch of…

75 Day Sketch Challenge

Hey artist friends! Ever want you own “Artistic License”? Well jump on over to Brenda Swenson: 75 Day Sketch Challenge. Here you can get your own Artistic License with your own photo. It’ll look something like this (image from http://brendaswenson.blogspot.com): It’s a real solid plastic license, not just an image that you’ll see online. lol The only rule is that you can only use pen to sketch which I kind of already do but I’m just inconsistent on how often I sketch. I’m going to try to kick it up a notch and sketch 75 pages not just the number…
