More random doodles. The Joker was from reference - what I believe was a photo of an early concept for Nolan's version of the character. I've been playing around with markers lately and finding they're great fun! I'll chuck up some more more marker pics later. Also - the girl at the bottom of the sketchpage is all kinds of screwed up sorry, but I liked Regan's scooter and David's cow skull.
Jeff pointed out that these four images seem to form some sort of a little series. I did them all around the same time but didn't intend for them to work like that - so what was it that made them go together so well? My initial thoughts were that they all seem both somber and surreal, but on closer inspection I realised that they're all looking down and to the right. Sheesh, talk about uninspired! The very top image, by the way, was done for my friend Rachel's birthday.
A CD cover I made for my little brother using my own photos - the album is a mix of the recordings Animal Collective did during the time they recorded the album Strawberry Jam. I tried to retain the visual aesthetic they went for with that album and the recent EP Water Curses.
One (or is it two?) that Cory hasn't seen yet. The first is a sketch I had lying around that I coloured on a whim, the second is a speedpaint from a reference photograph, and the third is a collage of sketches done from more reference photos. I had a revelation about the way 'faux shadows' (there must be a proper name for them - shadows that are not from cast light but reflected light) work tonight at the bus stop - it's impossible to explain with words so hopefully I'll get around to using some photos or sketches later. I dunno though, I am quite lazy, and the subject is probably pretty boring to anyone that isn't me :P
Erm, fighting robots.
And some interpretation of Mickey Mouse.
