Mineself

These are pages that I made for the Mineself website project. I figured I would post the artwork up for all to enjoy in its original format before I put together the site :)

World of Wick-Craft Character Profile: Beck

Down-to-earth, nonsensical, and many would say brilliant, Beck is a woman transformed by Wick-craft. Originally shy and naive, this Troll is now one of the most outgoing and extroverted of all. She enjoys playing video games, reading indie comics, and collecting all sorts of weird things that end up taking up residence in her room on the second floor of Townhouse A2.

World of Wick-Craft Character Profile: Kayleigh

Kayleigh seems to have the most together out of anyone and seems to make the most sense. A Goblin, Kayleigh is pleasant to be around, funny, and witty. She is a huge fan of Doctor Who, Tumblr, and TV Tropes, and is the President of Women's Center.

Epic Artist Spotlight: Artgerm

As part of my art blog, I have decided to include little spotlights, showcasing some of the finest in digital art.

Due to his amazing process of taking characters already composed of small pixels and rethinking them in an entirely different way through digital art, I have decided to have this first entry sharing with viewers the amazing video game art of Stanley Lau, (aka Artgerm). Having played my fair share of video games, and read tons and tons of comic books, I really appreciate this artist's work, especially his collection of art made for the online version of Street Fighter 3, one of my favorite video games.

Digital Coloring Done right

I am still mostly a traditional artist, but I love to color my artwork in photoshop. Here is my most successful coloring venture. Not only do the characters look very lifelike, but I have hardly any parts that are ruined by photoshop. Hopefully, with this success, I will have the confidence to continue working with digital coloring.

World of Wick-craft

Since I am running out of ideas, I have decided to start up a webcomic, featuring daily shennanigans at my school, re-imagined if everyone was a world of warcraft character.

This first issue didn't come out as well as I had hoped, but I'm still happy with it. It features me as a Troll waiting for a particularly dull class to end.

**Late Post

Didn't really have much to talk about, but I apologize for the slightly late post. However, I dug something out of my old files to post up. It is just a quick little background I made using Photoshop.

Interesting New Project

I'm a little confused and yet excited about my newest Digital Art and Design class project. In it, we have to look for things that may tell viewers something about us, like for instance our name, our school, our hometown, and anything else that we can think of. Then we have to form a 5 page website with it. I've never made a website before, although I do know html very well.

Here's a link to the Project if any visitors want to try it out themselves, just for fun:

Things I Need to Stop Doing with a Computer: Number 1

Editing the things that people say in comics to make them sound very silly.

You can do this too with just a little bit of either MSPaint or Photoshop. Sometimes on really sad days, it's great to make a much of these and then laugh at them. To all the readers of my blog, just for fun, find a comic you like, pick a panel, and let your funny side take over for a moment. Trust me, it will be worth it.

Also, discuss: are fudge cookies really worth that amount of anger?

What do you do with a creepy photo?

Make it EVEN CREEPIER with photoshop. Happy creating, everyone.

Late posts

I sincerely apologize for making all of my three posts this week on the last day of the week. I also haven't had much time to be creative as it has been a rough week.

One of the most fun types of digital art is cubeecraft. Different artists create all different characters, animals, and concepts as "cubees" or templates that you are meant to put together into a 3D paper sculpture. They are loads of fun and I recommend them to anyone who just wants a little craft that they can make. There are also templates so you can make your own design as mine, above.
