Timm's doodle

sketches for the new year

2012-01-21T13:06:00.000-08:00

I was watching the presidential debates/arguments yesterday, so I doodled up their faces. Also some other quickies I thought were worth sharing.

concepts from a group project a few friends and I started. It didn't get very far, sadly.

Christmas!

It's christmas eve, so I thought I would share some of the seasonal crap I did this month

Doodle of santa. This felt really good, I havn't done something this loose in too long

paper I crafted out of the junkmail we got over the month.

a santa magnet I made for my parents, and my kitty christmas ornament for this year. It's tradition in my family to get a new ornament every year, so I made mine this time

Pikaditto figure I sculpted for my brother

Had fun doing the sss for him. Here's the finished bust. Didn't take me much time at all (maybe around 16-20 hours? WHO KNOWS). Success!

Zack bust WIP1

started working on a quick sculpt bust of my pope character, Zack. Wanted something fun and easy to do in 3D. Will be textured and rendered.

Surfs up WIP 03

putting this on hold until i get myself together. I think its turning out ok, but I cant get any good feedback on it and there's just something not right about how it's progressing.

Finished just in time for Halloween. Just under a foot tall, this little buddy was on the backburner for a while. I got around to making his tiny jacket yesterday, so now he's finally done! He was just a quick sculpey project, not a whole lot of thought went into making him. But I don't think he turned out half bad. Kind of bummed out I couldn't get a better photo of his whole body, he's so dark.

He has armature in his arms and legs and also in his hood, so hes semi-posable. One of his right toes is currently broken off, I don't have any materials to fix it at this point.

Surfs up WIP 02

2011-10-11T09:51:00.000-07:00

Completed lineart. I cropped the canvas width, I think it helped with the composition (though it's nowhere near perfect). Fixed some proportion issues with Jesus. Started blocking in colors and basic shading.

Wanted to do a PS painting, figured why not have something started in every media, hah. I've been wanting to draw my pope character, Zack, surfing, for quite some time. I've never been able to nail the pose quite right, though. So this is yet another attempt, more successful than my last few. I think I'll finish it. That's Jesus floating around in the background, sippin on a girly drink.

my poor mans art studio! It does the job, the windows let in a lot of natural light. The floor gives me lots of expanding room, and everything is always within arms reach.

Hookah WIP 01

2011-09-29T11:52:00.000-07:00

Three WIP shots of the painting I'm currently working on, the hookah smoking caterpillar. I thought it would be fun to make a more realistic version of the character, and used a monarch caterpillar as reference. They have really nice coloration and patterns for the color pallet I wanted to use. The furthest left is the mockup I did in PS, which I've never done before (I don't really paint that often, anyway). It happened to help a lot. The painting itself is still in its very rough stage, blocking out colors and shades.

Thought I should kick this thing off to a decent start. Here's a page from my sketchbook I did yesterday.

Just wanted to doodle a minotaur (well, something with horns, really). Then I thought it would be cool to have some fun inking, so I did. Then I decided, hell why not, might as well color it for some practice. I havn't done a marker and colored pencil piece like this in a while. I'm glad I did, because the coloring work is what I'm most pleased with. His pose is less than exciting, though.

First blog post! This is me (as a kid). Hopefully my kid-face will be enough persuasion for you to continue reading this thing.
