Bri's Little Sketch Blog

New Blog!

2009-06-29T13:04:00.000-07:00

Hey there!

I suppose I should let everyone know that doesn't already: I've been updating my new blog rather than this one!

Why? Because it's catchy! And it makes more sense than Kazcartoons! And because I started giving it out to people. Go check out

http://brianimated.blogspot.com

for updates! Thanks guys!

Otafest01

2009-04-24T17:22:00.000-07:00

Well, I've not had a lot of time for drawing fun stuff lately, but I would like the share the first of my Otafest Chibis: Hatsune Miku from Vocaloid!

Thrown together in about three hours; I like the way her hair turned out, but I don't think I'm going to have time to shade them all nice like this! TnT Ah, well.

Ebon Spire - Len Ref. Sheet

2009-03-18T10:24:00.000-07:00

A character reference sheet I created for a contest running on DeviantArt called Ebon Spire. All of the character design/art and text are mine, but I did not create the logo or the background (they were provided for the participants.)

A larger version of the bottom image from the sheet, since I thought it turned out quite well. :)

Another Sketch Dump, My Goodness

2009-03-03T22:55:00.000-08:00

Not much to say here. Another batch of original characters. With the exception of Sherlock and Watson up at the top, these are all just random pen doodles.

Oldest OC's

2009-02-25T19:47:00.000-08:00

These two are my oldest characters (That I can remember) and I'm still rather fond of them 8'D. The girl is Desmona/Six and the boy is Five, who never received a real name, heh.

Ebon Spire Sketches

2009-02-19T11:10:00.000-08:00

Just a couple sketches that turned out semi-alright. Especially the one of the crouching fellow at the bottom there. Some issues with depth, but overall a step in the right direction, I think

Characters (c) Kiwihara, Beanjamish, Sincerely, Elliwiny

Sketchdump! AGAIN!

2009-02-18T00:57:00.000-08:00

Can anyone spare a dime for a new sketchbook?

Len

2009-02-05T11:11:00.001-08:00

Len is a terribly fun character in that he's entirely bendy and rather limitless in how I can pose him. I'd really like to try my hand at animating him someday (When I have time, gah!)

Racket

2009-02-04T11:03:00.000-08:00

As requested. c:
Puck belongs to Barb

Sketchdump 02/02/09

2009-02-02T23:58:00.000-08:00

Man, I really fell on my butt for uploading last month. So here's a big sketch dump.
And I do mean big- It's rather huge. 8|

08/01/09 Dump!

2009-01-08T12:12:00.000-08:00

Just playing around in Sketchbook, working on proportions and anatomy and stuff. And then I made it my character, Spin.
Spin again, sitting on a bench. I had a better version of the sketch, but Photoshop wouldn't let me save it. :C
Finally colored a picture of Rude. And here he is, being... Rude. :C
A WIP of something I'm attempting to color.

Happy New Year!

2009-01-01T23:42:00.000-08:00

This coming year is going to be full of change for me. Graduating class, with either more schooling or my first 'big-person' job on the horizon, I'm excited (and terrified) of what 2009 is going to bring.

Expect big changes with my art as well. I want to improve my anatomy skills (for oh, how they require improvement) and start working a great deal more with color. I also want to finish a lot more pieces.

All in all, it's going to be a busy year. Let's cross our fingers and hope everything goes smoothly (or, at least, mostly smoothly.

E

2008-12-18T14:59:00.001-08:00

This is E.

Before you ask, no, I'm not quite sure what exactly he is. I was inspired by hearing about someone's halloween costume, being 'a faceless man in a black suit.'

From there he just got weirder.

Also, it's terribly fun to have a character that is nearly completely silhouette with no facial expressions. It really forces you to consider how your character should be posed to convey emotion.

Si and Ar Colors

2008-12-12T22:40:00.000-08:00

Well you got boobs last time, have some poorly drawn man-pecs this time (those nipples are probably all wrong. Anatomy please.)

Just Si and Arruk. Testing out colors and messing around on Sketchbook Pro. 8)

Girls! Girls! Girls!

2008-12-11T14:58:00.000-08:00

Random face. I like how her eyes turned out.
Chicks! With guns!

...Yeah, those are supposed to be guns. Shhh.
...

...

Boobs!

Out of your system now? Good. In all seriousness I like how this turned out, except for her rather huge head and dodgey anatomy haha

11/12/08 Sketches

2008-12-10T23:11:00.000-08:00

First up, Silas is looking happy about the snow. (The complete opposite of me askjhdgk HATE THE SNOW.) Just something I threw together in about 10 minutes.

Sketches of Rude 'cause I can't get enough of him.

And last but not least, a quickly colored doodle of Liam's adorable Robbie<333

Duckie will roast your business.

2008-12-07T19:31:00.000-08:00

Ahh, Duckie. I need to draw you more.
Another character from Curses!
I think her chin is too big, and that little flame thing is so lacking of effort.
And... I should really do a background for something sometime. ._.

OMIGOSH!

2008-12-05T10:34:00.000-08:00

Colored things! Done for an announcement for Rogue Skies This is Miss Crowley looking rather panicked! She belongs one of our judges, the lovely Crow!

I... Really have no excuse for this one.

BEAUTIFUL KNEE! (and Silas too)

2008-12-02T15:20:00.001-08:00

First off- Rude doing some BEAUTIFUL KNEE!

...Really it's just a pose my brother struck and I told him to hold it. Then rotation, speedlines and BAM! BEAUTIFUL!

NOW THIS! This is what I'm really kinda proud of tonight. I realized earlier today that for some reason none of my characters have foreheads. And they all have really long faces. People seemed to think that this was a stylistic choice on my part.

It was not. :|

So I'm sort of trying to adjust some character designs to include foreheads. Silas, being my wimpy ginuea pig, was up first. These are the most recent tries (the first ones were hastily baleeted due to ULTIMATE SUCK) and by God, I do believe he looks better than ever. (Though input is always appreciated in these things!)

(Also the shirtless image of him turned out pretty good, I think, considering my shaky, shaky grasp on torso anatomy.)

Danananana SKETCHES

2008-12-02T15:20:00.000-08:00

YAY!

Rude and Parker

2008-12-01T08:24:00.000-08:00

And to start off December- Nothing Winter themed! (Because I hate the cold!)

...Unless you count that Rude's full name is Rudolph. :|

Some cleanup-sketches of Rude and Parker- Gangly wacky-limbs are fun to draw! (With a minor warning for language in that second sketch. Those foul-mouthed teenagers.)

25 Expressions Meme- Jamisen Roughs

2008-11-28T09:06:00.000-08:00

So I found this great little exercise over on DeviantArt and decided to give it a go. I definitely recommend it, it's a lot of fun to do and great practice!

I may go back and fix this up later, as well as redo a couple of the expressions (like tired Dx)

The template is here, check it out!

And now, have a hand turkey!

Seriously I can't come up with Titles for these anymore.

2008-11-24T15:10:00.001-08:00

Today's best Sketch. Redux to two characters, Jack and Padget. I really like how Jack face turned out, though the two of them stylistically don't really match very well.

Spin! How I've missed you! Her head's a bit big, and her general pose is all sorts of weird. But Oh well, I still sort of like it.

And more Jamisen headshots. I keep doing that silly Butch Hartman style. It's just so rediculous!

Well I don't call it a sketchblog for nothing.

2008-11-23T21:30:00.000-08:00

Playing around with how to draw Silas's face. Any and all feedback is appreciated.

Drawing people playing the violin is hard. D: The embarrassed-looking fellow at the top is Fred who belongs to Oly over on DeviantArt. The charming looking fellow below him with the pointy ears is Edward, who belongs to Zara on DA. The disgruntled fellow in the top right is Johnny the Vampires, and he tragically belongs to me.

Silas with a pie.

...I have no excuse for this one.

Some newer-type sketches of http://kazcartoons.blogspot.com/2008/06/33333.html>Morty the http://kazcartoons.blogspot.com/2008/07/morty-roughs.html"> Cat

Done randomly for fun the other night. All of these guys here belong to Meo over on DA!

Like.

Seriously.

More Sketches

2008-11-17T01:08:00.000-08:00

Just some random doodles. A colored version of Rat that didn't transfer very well from my Cintiq screen to to other monitors and, uh, some cute nerds and a hyperintelligent Cat.

Rylie Concepts

2008-11-11T23:43:00.000-08:00

Working out Rylie. Skinny chicks with big boobs are surprisingly hard for me.

Please excuse the horrible horse anatomy on little Gert. Need to work on that. ._.

Gert and the New Girl

2008-11-10T01:40:00.000-08:00

More random character designs. These girls are actually based on some My Little Ponies xD Top left is Gert, and the rest are designs for a new girl, who I'm having a lot of fun with.

Kung Fu Panda Sketches

Sketchdump 01

2008-11-06T15:41:00.000-08:00

Sketchdump Time!

Just a whole bunch of random photoshop doodles. The tops ones are basically the redesign of Kaz, the bottom two being Matt (because gosh I love drawing him) and practicing drawing Riley (who is a pain).

TDTESS - "Concept Art"

2008-10-18T03:39:00.000-07:00

A piece of "concept art" done for class. I'm happy about some of it, and disappointed with most, but for getting 95% of it done in one day I suppose it's not terrible! I think my favorite part might be the shading on the alien. My least favorite- The style and composition of all those crosses.

More Randomness

2008-10-10T00:49:00.001-07:00

New characters (What? AGAIN?)
All the characters I design tend to be so serious business. I wanted to do something with more silliness/bromance/lolz.
Despite Matt and Duckie looking pretty stern in this picture, the whole thing is just silliness. Hopefully I'll stick with this one, yeah?

Doodles 01

2008-09-27T04:30:00.000-07:00

Some doodles.

Headshots

2008-09-22T01:01:00.000-07:00

Rat Sketches

2008-09-14T22:58:00.001-07:00

Just a little dragon I started drawing at like, 4 am last night. xD

Kinda like the cheese

2008-07-26T21:36:00.000-07:00

Just a random picture of myself, done for my silly DeviantArt page.
The arm is a little off.

Life Drawing classes NAO PLZ.

(Cue horrified reaction videos?)

Steve gave me Sketchbook pro and I was playing about with it. Tons of fun!

Morty Roughs

2008-07-20T02:38:00.000-07:00

Some more drawings of Mortimer the Cat. I dunno what this guy's purpose is yet, other than being rediculously fun to draw. 83

These are the rough drawings and the colors. Woo!

Kaylee Sketch

2008-07-14T23:46:00.000-07:00

Just a rough sketch of one of my characters.

Price Bros Sketches

2008-07-08T22:38:00.000-07:00

Just a couple of sketches I did. The top one was a (mostly failed) experiment in perspective.
Characters Nathan and Elliot Price belong to me yeahyeah.

Spin Painty Thing

2008-07-06T01:10:00.001-07:00

Oh man, nothing for over a month. Sorry about that.
Uh. In that month there has been much arting. I may or may not put some of it up here.
In the meantime, have this... Thing.

What did I have while making this thing here?
Absolutely no. Idea. What I was doing.
This is basically just playing around and experimenting and such.
Fairy is my character, Spin. Looking abnormally cute.

<33333

2008-06-01T00:04:00.000-07:00

...
Happiest day. Seriously.

Emily Redesign Sketches

2008-05-06T12:16:00.000-07:00

My old character, Emily Shepard, is getting redesigned.
So here are some idea sketches.

(The one in grey was also meant to be practice putting emotion in drawings. I don't know if I succeeded or not, haha!)

Phei Ref Sheet

2008-04-30T23:27:00.001-07:00

Done from sketch to color in the course of an evening.
Made for a competition I may be entering! 8D

Phei belongs to Bri R.

Hellhound Kaz Design Concepts

2008-04-11T22:03:00.000-07:00

Just some sketches done for a character design. Also practice with males. I do suck at drawing the dudes.

Kaz belongs to me.

McHellhound

2008-04-10T23:21:00.000-07:00

Demon dog!
Woo!

Zane

2008-04-09T23:15:00.000-07:00

Something I did for my friend Barb of her character Zane. Isn't he adorable? 8D And bubbles are fun!

This picture was actually done with crayon on a Jack Astor's table, so there wasn't a lot of planning going on (his head especially doesn't flip well ;_;). Still, it looks cute, I think!

Also, I know next to nothing about digital coloring. D: Oops!

Kitsu!

2008-03-02T21:39:00.000-08:00

Oh geeze, right, updating!

Here is a quick sketch of my friend Kitsu, inspired by our conversation tonight! It was drawn pretty quickly, which is my excuse for the mistakes...? ^^;
But! Kitsu liked it, so that's what counts!

An older picture.

2008-02-12T22:34:00.000-08:00

So I suppose I should update this somewhat frequently...

This is a picture I had sitting on my computer mostly finished for several months. I dunno... It looks alright, even though both character's designs have changed since then.

Emily and Kaz belong to me.

Obligatory Intro Post

2008-02-10T13:19:00.000-08:00

Salutations!

So... Welcome to my little art Blog. Err... I'm not too terribly skilled at intro posts...
I am attending school for 2D animation right now, and loving it hardcore.
I hope to work for a studio, and hopefully do some of my own stuff in the future.

So yeah! Hi! And welcome to my blog!
