Juhuuu folks!
Long time no post...but I've been doing an awful lot. Strictly speaking about drawing. For example, thousands of miniexercises for the drawing course. The professor wants them to have NO SHADOWS at all, she only wants to see the outlines; of course, when she said this, I almost coughed myself to death.
BUT, a few days of un-shadowed drawing later, I realized what a great exercise this is for my lines. They are getting much cleaner, I think.
Here are some minithings (my scanner EATS pencil drawings and spits them out in very poor conditions):
I like the fat chamaleon :)

I found this together with Dinosaurs.
So, today I wanted to have a self-esteem-boost looking at old drawings I made, and I found an ANCIENT mini-sketchbook from two years ago with trashy paper where i had drawn some stuff I actually still like. Here are some pages:
So today, on top of that and in between of all the pencil drawings I have to do for University, I made a little page, taking some inspiration from the last of those drawings:
I'm satisfied with this one too. I can kind of see an improvement, especially in 3-dimensional looks.
But I need to rush out and try to get a job, now. Again. Aber was soll's??
Wish you all a punk evening. Fruf.

The story is ACTUALLY going on
With "the story" I mean the Noah's ship thingie. Yep. The one with inks in my first post. Here in the second panel we meet a misterious new character: LONELY BLUE BIRD! DAN-DAN-DAAAAAAAAN!!!!
Here he is, in all his temporary!)loneliness.
Working with a perspective really almost killed me. I don't do that quite often (I don't mean being killed, I mean drawing stuff that actually requires perspective :) ), but I'm quite satisfied with the result. I mean. You can understand it's a room, right?? In a ship, right?!?? I hope.
ZZZZO...last but not least, I wanted to post here a nice song from a certain Ginko, a reggae artist I've seen yesterday live at Acrobax (awesome social centre in Rome!). This particular song is about (and agaist) atomic energy. It's got all of that freak stuff about being one with nature, blah blah blah. I LOVE IT!
Sorry not-italian folks if you can't understand the lyrics. The lyrics are really the best thing about this song.

Headbutts, but no Butts.
Good evening from your favourite completely-freaking-out-elf. I know, I know: real elves don't freak out. Well. Wannabes do.
The reason of this freakingoutattack I'm going through (which consists in a voice in my brains going "IIIIIIIK" every 30 seconds) are the frequent headbutts I accidentally throw on real life. Specifically, after ONE lesson I've already had a harsh exchange of opinions with my wood-engraving professor.
At least, SHE exchanged her opinions with ME. I decided I'd rather shut up. I'm a VERY wise elf :)
So, I decided to leave wood-engraving apart for a few...decades, and I've gotten back to work on an old thingie I found on my harddrive today:
The lineart is COMPLETELY done on Photoshop, as well as the rest. I must have gone completely NUTS (thank you, dear wood-engraving professor!). But, as you can tell, I still prefer traditional tools ;)
Well, as for today, all my further comments are "blabbi buba graggle baf!"! Which pretty much means: "I wanna see The Pillars of the Earth tonight!".
Have fun, lovely folks!

Hauptsache: Fat.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Since I've spent night and morning shaking epileptically to the sweet sound of evil music, what I've created today is, as well, a bit shaky.
The story is easy: a short time ago, I've drawn a princess on an overweight pony:
, then, my sweet friend Braddie the Sloth suggested I should draw another one, an overweight princess on a thin pony. And I did. Sorry, mr.Pony!!
They're very sketch-like, and since I'm really into classical fairytale stuff (such as princesses on ponies!), I'd like to draw them once more in a rather "serious" way, one day. These two ones have been coloured with the incredible amount of colourful inks I've received lately. I didn't even know coloured inks would exist! Life is sure wonderful :)
Well. Enough blabber for today. Fruf.

GOOD DAY, LITTLE BLOG
So, it's after a while of thinking "Hey, the day I'll be an awesome artist I'll get an artblog! Juhuuu", that I realized that day is still far away.
This led, of course, to my decision of creating an artblog even though my arrrt is far from being awesome!
Looks like a normal conclusion to me.
So, the serious stuff. Here's some: child-book-style illustration for a small project I have. Let's see if it'll go on (the full-sized image is MESSY).
And I think that's all, for today :) I only still need to say: MIAO.
