Merry New Year.

Sun Jan 11, 2009, 4:22 AM
Over the past few months atleast once or twice a week I've picked up a pencil and done a little doodle, usually in the front of the shitbox or this blasted contraption the computer. Over those many days I've kept thinking "Shit, I am NOT doing enough art, I need to get my act together," followed closely by a shot of Mezcal or Robo or wine or something, it doesn't matter. What matters is that party time is over and its time to get drawing back into my life. So, like many others on here, namely Sin and Poj, I'm going to list down a few things I plan on trying to do this year.

- Anatomy. Everyone needs it like they need a good piss. Into a toilet not out of a bottle. Anatomy can help so much, with it comes understanding of certain movements, certain posture of characters, angles, all that shit, and thats something that is infinitely helpful.

- Start on my fucking comic. Alot of people I know have a large story brewing in their heads they want to tell. I need to get around to telling mine. Hopefully I can really flesh out some of my characters, maybe have a bit of progression in the process.

- Work on pacing and panel layout. I find this shit fucking difficult.

- Add colour to all my shit. I don't do it enough and I need to learn to make myself finish stuff.

- Work on my lines. I like them actually, the messiness. But I'd like to be able to really pull out some clean shit once in a while.

- Work on my design abilities. Mainly in logos, characters, vehicles. Generally everything. Mainly i think its just studying and building up your own archive from which you can learn and be inspired by.

Well thats all I can think of right now, although I can't help but think i'm missing something. Oh well, I have the whole year. While I'm at it, I'll ask something of you cool dudes reading this. Check out :iconpropaganda-x: a very very good friend of mine who happens to be the greatest writer I know and I feel he needs some recognition for the few short stories he's put up onto his page. We all need a pat on the back to push us forward.
