I-Should-Have-Been-Taking-Notes 7.5: Art

Unlike my last post, where it consisted of things I found after I had uploaded my first three batches of doodles, I had this one ready to be scanned and uploaded for a long time. But I, being the lazy me I am, never got around to it. To prove how lazy I am, I still have a small pile of sketches I did back in July I have been meaning to upload for a while now, but probably will wait until the start of September to do so.

Anyways, I didn't upload the art I did in art because this actually contains some stuff that I'm proud of (of course, because it also includes things I did for school).  

Disclaimer: This doesn't have every art assignment I had completed for class as I never bothered to take them home (they wasn't a lot anyways, trust me). Thus, even though I have not much to show for it, and even though the class was ultimately an easy A, I did put some effort into getting that A.

Fanart for someone's character, except the term "fanart" implies that I'm a fan of said character, which I'm definitely not. She's basically a mary sue put in the Bleach world.
The concept work for my vegetable marching band picture.
Loosely based off a bird in a birdcage. It was supposed to be inked with actual pen nibs and liquid ink and such, but once I saw that it bled horribly when I used it with a ruler, I gave up.

Ugly self portrait. I prefer the portrait of my friend I drew using a phone picture as a reference. The quality's so bad because I took the picture with my phone camera as it's too big to fit in my scanner.

Another ugly picture, but this time its a painting. Something I did when I was bored. I obviously don't know how skin's supposed to be coloured.
Probably my favourite piece in a while, especially since I did it entirely out of paint and it has a background for once. It was actually put into the yearbook.
And that's all, folks! Unless I find some more art I forgot to upload, this is practically all I art I have to show you from my last year of high school.

I-Should-Have-Been-Taking-Notes 7.4: Misc

Hey guys, guess what else I found when I emptied out more of my binders? More art I didn't upload! Yay!

Here's stuff from a bunch of subjects, I just never uploaded them with the batch because I'm not going back to those old posts to update them. This saves you time you would have been spending going back to old posts looking for the update. You are welcome.

Horses and cats. Found in my Japanese binder.
People practice. Trying to get better at drawing realistic.
More concepts. You might recognize them to be practices for my Eng graphic novel project.
Some concepts drawn in the back of my math notebook during English.
Reversed side of the picture above. The same concepts, and some dinosaurs on request from the guy sitting behind me in English.
Done during volunteering when I should be looking after the kids, but I do a lot more than some of the volunteer colleagues who just do the craft and doesn't help the kids at all so I deserve to slack off and draw this once. It's obviously a picture of a girl.

Drawn with pencil on plain ol' paper.
Last picture drawn with pencil crayons.

Fanart: Saya no Uta

See? Finally finished it.
And it practically looks like the one I showed you before.

But now you can see their faces.

Fuminori and Saya
Event File.

I originally also planned to show tendrils of her monster side, and Saya "blooming" in that monster thing at the end of the game (the ending where she turns everybody into monsters like her) but I just gave up. I'll show you how much of it I got done, though.

I gave up because it looked bad so I scrapped it.

Still looks alright, I guess, from afar. I kind of like the picture better with the background blank like this.
I'm kind of tire right now, so I'll keep this short. I won't spoil the game for any of you, but I will say that I didn't find it as sad as people say it is (doesn't mean you won't though, I'm just heartless) and Fuminori is one serious asshole.

Also like to mention that I tried to keep the colours less saturated than what I'm usually used to, and sicne they still look as lively as ever, I consider that a success. (Yup, artsy talk. You don't have to get it.)


Made in openCanvas.
