Guinea Pig Sugar Skull!




Because why not?

Learning more tools on Illustrator these days, although there are still random errors I don't quite understand. I kept this one relatively simple in comparison to my previous 2, but I'm very happy with my progress :D

JanuARTY Drawing Day 11: Jareth, The Goblin King...



A particularly sad day today. We lost the Goblin King. He's a huge part of my childhood, and of what makes me who I am today so I'm a bit at a loss really.

"It's only forever. Not long at all..."

#JanuARTY Drawing Day 9 & 10!




A random portrait and an Acanthus leaf. If I get stumped for ideas I use Random Image Generator, that's where the photo for the portrait came from, as well as the previous Tree Frog :)

JanuARTY Drawing Day 8: A Couple of Forget Me Nots



Running on fumes tonight, so I just managed these little wildflowers :)

An Anemone in Illustrator!




I took my previous Anemone sketch and recreated it in Illustrator. It turned out really well, and I got to learn a lot of new tools too :D

JanuARTY Drawing Day 6 & 7: An Anemone Flower & a Tree Frog!




I'm pretty chuffed with these 2! The frog is particularly cool I think ;)

I have another Illustrator file on the go, based on the anemone drawing, which I can hopefully get it finished and uploaded tomorrow :D

Vector Sugar Skull!



I thought I'd see if I could recreate one of my Sugar Skulls in Illustrator; if it works out I can use them for all sorts of exciting things.

Turns out I could & she looks ace! I'm particularly chuffed with how pretty that rose is.
Expect more of these things to come ;)

JanuARTY Drawing Day 5: A Lily & A Sugar Skull Giraffe!..



A lily! In no particular style, just trying to draw it from a photo :)

A Sugar Skull Giraffe! Requested by Jon's youngest sister & it was a lot of fun :D

JanuARTY Drawing Day 4: Roses & Some Sugary Fun!..



The first was a copy to learn the style, the second was trying to adapt the style to a photo of a rose.

Here's a bit of Sugar Skull fun, but on a pony! :D



Just a warning, there will be more of these. I've just had a request to do a Sugar Skull Giraffe next, so that'll be interesting too :P

JanuARTY Drawing Day 3: Sailor Jerry-Style Pin Up...


This one's my own design, based on Sailor Jerry's American Traditional style. I quite like it; there's something really satisfying about drawing the faces :)

JanuARTY Drawing Day 2: Sailor Jerry Continued...






Drew another Pin Up and had a go at some of the lettering. Turns out, I'm no good with straight lines :P

JanuARTY Drawing Day 1: Sailor Jerry...



A Sailor Jerry Pin Up girl, and she turned out pretty nice! I think I'll be trying this again soon :D
