More Gumballlll.

I applied for a character designer position on The Amazing World of Gumball (TAWOG) for their new season a while ago. I didn't hear back from CN (which usually means "You didn't get the role". ) but, I still enjoyed completing the assignments they sent me. It was a BIG LEARNING CURVE for me in illustrator. Thanks CN, Love the show. 








Gumball & Darwin (FAN-ART)



I found an excuse to play around with Illustrator. The turnout was interesting, these colours have come out a lot brighter than I intended. The actual colours are on my tumblr

WEEK 3 - We love Pirates!



The best way  for me to try new techniques on PS is to apply it on new personal projects. I'm not overly pleased with the final outcome but, I'm going to go back and finish it after I complete the whole CGMA character design course. Assignment DEATH-lines.

WEEK 1 - Shapes.







Its a bit late but, as you can tell from the previous posts, I've enrolled in a character design course to find what out I need to make good designs and get noticed into the amazing world of animation and illustration. So far its been 2 weeks and I've learned a lot of simple and basic methods to make good character designs. I hope you all enjoy what I post up here for the next two months. 



WEEK 2 - Crusading.






My start to finish of how I (try) develop characters. This is from my current course at CGMA with Nate Wragg as my mentor (tutor). He's a  really cool dude.

WEEK 2 - Silhouettes of many, many people with weapons.


These are all strong but, in the end I went with the bottom right silhouette. It was a coincidence that the final shape was the last one on the line :}
