More doodles/sketches



I have access to a scanner again! Woo!

So originally I was only going to post the sketch of the robot, but then I just started doodling later in the day. I ended up drawing Yan Yu... again. I liked the sketch, particularly of the head, so I decided to scan that and colour that too.

Then when they were next to each other it didn't look right with just the sketch of the robot, so I scribbled in some colour.

Anyways, the reason we haven't been topic posting together is because Yan Yu hasn't had very good internet connection, so we haven't been able to discuss topics. But at least we're posting! Ha ha.

Hope you enjoy,


William

SNAAAAKEE!


Pasjdsakhzrogglefroggle, internet is back up--but by the time it was, it was already too late to go onto the computer in the other room to scan and then send to my email, then paint. Oh well. I was playing with gouache again today but I didn't like how some of the things had come out. Ehh. Anyways I had intended to post up at least 3 sketches today but that... failed. At least I did one~ D: Tomorrow I'll try to do at least 2. Though I'm not sure how that'll come out, considering that I have to babysit.

Hat



Not much of a post tonight. I was kind of lazy and Yan Yu's internet was being wonky again! So she hasn't been able to get up ons.

Not only that but I was really lazy with mine. Took maybe 20 minutes, ha ha. I'm in New Hampshire right now for vacationing and for some reason it makes me not feel like working. Ha ha.

More sketches




We wanted a break from themes and decided to post some sketches that have been going on in our heads. Tomorrow we may do something digital again. William did some more concept design for upcoming Para-Ten chapters.. the type of stuff I should be working on because I pay so much attention to just faces without context. D: zxnmbzxn!
I've noticed that I've been using bigger and bigger noses with each passing drawing, because I've realized that no matter how ugly you make it, nobody will notice because all the attention is on the eyes, lips and hair. Hah! So it's fun being able to play with nose shapes. William's been doing the same thing as well. Go experimenting! I added a lot of drawings in one post to make up for the entries I've missed. D'aw.

Some useless facts:
1. Bottom right is based on William (hair, glasses)
2. Bottom left looks like what William would draw
3. A friend, Mike, mentioned that I look like the top right. Another friend, Mando, agrees.. saying that the lips look like mine. I think they do, I'm not sure. He said people tend to draw features of themselves into their drawings. I agree because William's drawings are point and sharp JUST LIKE HIM.
4. Top left actually looks more like William, because of the chipper expression. Harhar.

On an irrelevant note, I really hate my name. Jessica. What does the name Jessica remind you of--Jessica Simpson? Porn stars? Or just about every other girl since it's such a common name? Either way, I don't like the way it sounds. For some reason nobody has ever used my chinese name; not even my family. And a couple of people have told me that they wished my name was chinese--which I do have! But is never used. So I'm going to try and enforce it. It'll be hilariously ironic because everyone will call me by it except for my azn family. So yeah, starting from today I'm no longer Jessica on this blog. I'm Yan Yu. Got it? get it? good!

Concept



Jessica was gonna post too but her connection was lost for a while and also her scanner wasn't working anyways.

So here we have a character concept sketch I did for a future Para-Ten chapter. I like how it came out, and it's different from the stuff I've been drawing the past... months. Ha ha.

I really haven't done a good male character design in a long time, and for some reason I often limit myself to clothes that fit the character, so it's good to variate. Not only that but it's a nice pencil drawing which I used to do all the time and don't do nearly enough any more. Years ago I was almost exclusively pencil, ha ha.

I think one of the reasons I more easily got away from my usual stuff is that I know that in the chapter, Paveline is gonna be there. She will satiate my need to draw a pretty girl type character so it leaves me open to all other sorts of people. It's a lot of fun to draw more "geometric" characters like this guy here and his coat. Ha ha.

Have a great day or night everyone!

Steam punk.




We decided to do the them "steam punk" because Jessica and I were designing steam punk robots for a story our friend Mike is working on with Jessica. I had an idea related to it but Jessica didn't really. I said, 'Ok... the theme is 'new dress'?" So it kind of was? But Jessica just redesigned the girl she drew yesterday. Which is fine too!

I drew one of the robots I came up with being dressed up... in a dress. Ha ha. That's all I suppose.



Peas!

Sketches



PEOPLE sketches. Because I'm not good at it and need to play with faces more. );
Also some dresses; a variation of Lapin's and a new (although strange) frock that I will probably alter later in the future.
