New Year's Work

Wed Jan 28, 2009, 4:32 AM
This year things are gonna be different.

I'm going to be at university; I've currently accepted a bachelor of sofwtware engineering and bachelor of science, but I'll likely drop the science degree to focus on the software engineering.
University means I'll be working on weekends, and I guess not drawing as often. But, you now, seeing as I've got nothing up in the last three weeks, it could hardly get worse, eh?

Art wise I've got a drawing of Kotaro looking at me from my manga folder, begging to be finished. Hopefully I'll get round to it in the next few days and then start on more. I got several Negima books for Christmas, so I've got lots of nice reference :D I've also got some drawings in my new sketchbook which I need to scan and upload. I want to do more conceptual things like the one I need to upload, but I haven't found the inspiration to do more than crummy sketches recently... I need to start coming up with good ideas for a project I'm going to be working on with =Calco and ~LuciferianSoul, a three-way painting.

Musically I've been getting all sorts of new stuff from a variety of sources, mainly mine and Calco's guitar teacher. Awesome stuff like Iced Earth and Satriani and King Diamond. As you do. His band's got a show on in a few weeks, can't wait for it to happen, their stuff is amazingly awesome. Calco and I are currently learning a Firewind song and writing our own song, which is really really fun.

I'd like to be able to put tab for music of my own witing on my website, but that requires fixing my website. It's [link] but don't go there yet, it's not been updated for at least 2 years... In the next few weeks, however, I'm going to try and redesign it, start again from scratch and create a music-blog type site.

It seems that that's about it for now, except to say that I'll be updating my grandfather's deviantART gallery more often now, as I haven't for months. If you don't know, I've made ~TotthJeno for my deceased grandfather who was an amazing artist in many media. I've done this to share his enjoyment of art with other people and bring appreciation to his talents.

Laters all,
Fithakk

Set yourself a challenge or schedule regarding drawing. Even if you just plan to at least draw 1 little doodle each night before you sleep. Just having that there has really motivated me this month, and usually I would draw once every few weeks even sometimes once in a month (Horrible, I know).

I wish I could come up with some ideas for this collaboration; I have no idea what it is or what is happening about it at all :P
:iconfithakk:
I've done a little concept-sketching, trying to come up with ideas for my section. I'm hoping we can do something kinda continuous, that flows between the three sections, but that depends on what we decide. If we manage to get together and talk about it =P

The sketch every night things sounds like a great idea, though, I reckon I'm gonna go for it! Hopefully it'll help me get more creative ideas too, instead of just sketching the same people in the same poses over and over. Thanks for the inspiration!

It really does. A few nights ago I wasn't sure what to draw so I looked through a tattoo magazine and found a butterfly which had really good patterns and shadings on it's wings, so I replicated it, and then the next night I did one similar but I changed certain features of it and added things, and then pretty soon I had a lot of new ideas for it.
