Elf-age [06 Apr 2007|01:48pm]
[ mood | content ]
[ music | The heater gurgling to itself ]

Decided to do something different with this one.
Started out with a sketch of Natalie Portman. Changed the eyes a bit to make them more open and brighter. Added the elf ears. Redid her hairstyle. (The braids were fun.) Modified her outfit a little. And voila! Elf chick.
You can still see Natalie in there, but I'm cool with that.

Gah, black backgrounds are SO much easier.

[ music | Imogen Heap - "Daylight Robbery" ]

Gah. I'm getting horrible cramps in my wrist from drawing so much. I usually spend about 8-9 hours these days. Pretty much non-stop. Major ouch ouch. The sketches I've been posting here are just the warm ups I do to get into the flow of things. They're direct copies of photos so I don't have to think about composition etc. Though I do selectively edit the pics a bit and often add or exclude things based on what makes a better portrait.

Today, a quickie sketch of Audrey Hepburn.

Just an average day at work for me...


The Pink Five Trilogy! Woo!
Ever wonder how the Rebel Alliance would have fared if a Valley Girl was at the controls of an X-wing fighter?

Jonathan Rhys Myers as King Henry [01 Apr 2007|09:46pm]

[ music | Po' Girl - "The City Song" ]

Saw a teaser for "The Tudors" the other day. Got stuck in my head.
So I found me some reference material and cooked up a sketch.

Safe version for friends pages:

Small Visual Update [19 Mar 2007|07:56pm]
[ mood | creative ]
[ music | Bob Sinclair - Rock This Party ]

Told myself I wouldn't bother too much with the look and feel of my stuff here as I wouldn't be spending that much time on Livejournal. But damnit the designer in me just wouldn't let it be.

The background sketch is based off of Keira Knightly. 
And speaking of sketches, here's another. I give you Mr. Fantastic, Ioan Gruffudd:

What the hell is up with you? [19 Mar 2007|05:47pm]
[ mood | weird ]

Ok. So I'm not a huge blogger.
It took a trip around Europe for 6 months to get me to actually post regularly. And really that was only because I was lazy and didn't want to email everyone on where I was and what I was doing.

So what the hell am I doing on Livejournal you ask? 
Really I'm just the icon / art wench for Anna Rosa. From time to time I'll kick out a few icons for her or do up a sketch of her latest celebrity man candy. Sometimes I'll help her with her journal's layout. (Before road testing it here of course!) And before you ask, no I'm not really interested in making icons for anyone else. Sorry!

Oh... and lest you think that stealing is an option. I assure you it is not.
I have a crack team of icon ninjas at my disposal and they are well trained. Seriously. They have these little ninja shuriken throwing stars made out of poorly burnt music cds. And they ain't afraid to use 'em!

Take that!
The override function is my bitch. :D

More "tweaking" to come later, but now I've got some apartment hunting to do. Yes, must escape the plague infested hell-hole that is my current abode...

Am not really awake, so bear with me...
I will eventually figure this darn thing out.

However, more testing must be done.
