I did this girl with a blue outline which I think gives her a different feel from my other stuff, which I usually do in a brown outline.

It was a sunny day but now it's a gray one. Its cool man. So this Sunday I have a another photo shoot, some of which is evidently planned to be nude. hmmm. I don't mind showing some skin, but really Im not avant garde enough to put that kind of stuff in my portfolio. Anyway something about cookies and crumbling or however you make pajamas is how you sleep in em or you know, whatever.

Also evidently it's good to be passionate but karma has a sharp eye for being so in the wrong places. If you're a vixen, even a friendly, innocent one who means well, keep your paws off hands with wedding rings on em, because weight gain, sinus infection, walking into metal poles, and throwing up milk that has solidified in your stomach await you. I'm telling you this is sage advice.

Also some guy named Dennis Hopper died. When I heard this I thought Edward Hopper, and took a moment to reflect sadly on the all those lonely naked women hanging out at their windows.

Lana finished except for the t rex... obviously.

progress on Lana's final image. t rex hunting is serious business. I even added gums to her intent snarl.

finished Aiala- never finished the fish but thats okay.

sketchbook concept of Lana's image- which I just started redrawing in photoshop today. shes gonna be ambushing a trex.

tough choice

Instead of doing one final image that incorporates all the concepts, I decided it would be easier to do three; one for each of the characters- hopefully that also demonstrate some of the terrain I've come up with.

I'm sick of pen tablets so I'd like to do at least one of these with traditional media.. but I'm very pressed for time so we'll just haveta wait and see! Heres the beginning of the Aiala's final piece:

I'm goingt o put in the big tree with the little houses that I did in 3d modeling back there.. and maybe some crumbled sky scrapers or something.

lav it

some early (and incredibly awful) concept sketches of Lana, the short haired t-rex fighting vixen.

I found a boobs and beasts blog: http://mike-destasio.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html

final projects

final projects and such----

I'm still trying to come up with a character for the maya class that isnt too scary to attempt. But shall soon!

for concept art I've decided to practice my patience and do a super fab commission that takes days of sweat and blood. Last year some guy requested an original boobs and beasts (and even offered to pay but I shant ask for anything) featuring a short haired brunette with a scary dino. And so! I'm going to do this short haired vixen with my jungle girls in the greatest, most action packed boobs vs beast I've ever attempted.

Hurray!

as far as my attention span will take me into the world of environments.

:(

:(

I really want to have SOMETHING finished to show tomorrow. Seeing as... some THING is apparently due. alas. I tried but it's still not done.

I am cheating a little with this: courtesy of some tips from Miles.

taking tooooo long.. I hate to post not so evident progress of the same pic, so hopefully the next one will be the final image. I'm working on the background too, which is post aaaapooooccooooolytptpto ical! I dont think that hand on the bottom right is anything to sneez at, btw

im working on some stuff. buts its baaaaad to the bone. Also the guy next to me is chewing gum so vivaciously and with such lip smacking vigor that I must leave class early. I'm super disgusted.

my character is a lesbian now. btw.

working on a new pic, going to introduce a new character. Normally I wouldnt do the mouth first but I'm having a lot of trouble with the slight downturned angle of her face. I seriously have no idea where anything goes.

Also the main girl/jungle me probably should have her eyes closed- she looks kinda crazed

Why, my character isnt pre-historic! Shes Post-Apocalyptic! Duh!

natural environments concept art

I shoulda woulda coulda been famous. I had my chance in Hollywood, ya know. Love is never worth it- especially young love. Ambition first. Take it from an old has been.

this is a sketch of my boyfriend I did about a year ago- I never use black line anymore, I always try and use a color

After class today I walked outside and walked into a pole. A metal, glong-ing pole that left me with a swollen lip. There was an art exhibition underway, so the whole town and their moms saw. I fled the scene and cried in my car. The universe was so cruel; a young, beautiful girl smacked in the face with the cold pole of karma. I say this because I was gazing longingly at a man who is spoken for through a glass window when it happened. Harsh reality leaves me with big lips. Luckily after the weeping resided I looked in the rear-view and thought it actually made me look kinda sexy.
