Another Labyrinth inspired design
Mostly clothing and hair style. More stylized than the other one (which is how most of my drawings are done, super cartoony. Didn't fly well in drawing class.) but I still like it. Makes me want to flat color it. :3
Warrior Girl
A sketch that I did while watching a Jim Henson movie haha. Kinda inspired by Princess Mononoke but I didn't use any reference pictures. I like the war paint designs. :3
Strange desire to color this in pastels hmmm

Results
1 - 100 - Not that much of a hipster. You’ve barely got any hipster characteristics. While some hipsters may look down on you for being too mainstream, at least you look like you have somewhere to live.

100 - 200 - Pretty hipster. You might be a denim jacket away from full hipsterdom, but you’re still capable of successfully defending yourself when called a hipster in a derogatory fashion.
200 - 300 - Full hipster. You’re so hipster your handwriting is in Helvetica. I’d talk more about you, but you’re so underground that I probably haven’t heard of you anyway.

Art is sophisticated
So this weekend we had to draw a contour study of major edges. Okay yeah. It's a self portrait. Again sure, self explanatory. Of us wearing a paper bag on our heads. Wait- what?
Needless to say the other art classes probably thought our drawing 2 class suspected the coming of Extraterrestrials and were woefully lacking in aluminum foil hats.

Why I'm doing illustration
Alright so here's the deal, mostly an epiphany for myself.
I figured out what I will do should I go into some sort of illustration field. I want to storyboard. Or concept art but I'd need a lot of color practice for that.
It's perfect for me. Things can be a little rough and expression, fluidity of movements seem to be key. It's also about developing a story, something I love to do. I love creating characters and my art style tends to verge on the overly simply and cartoonish. Storyboarding would be the best thing I could do with an illustration interest. Now I have a goal, something to work toward.

both of these are from Disney's Tangled Concept art. I love this.
