This is the one time I can successfully say I wish I would have begun this later. Why? Because then I could have made it work for the current AP assignment, too. Anyway, the idea was supposed to be a bit more whimsical and all, but I think it went through alright. I was trying to recreate a black and white cartoon scene in the background behind me, and if you look at this piece in person it really does have that effect! You know, every time I draw realistically the head always seems too small to me. Same goes for here. Also, that weird spot on my face was really just supposed to be regular shade, so I might tweak that a bit. Other than that, and the fact I look angsty as heck, this might be an okay piece.
Also, in other news...
Shana seems to be okay with getting an artist alley table (at Naka-kon) with me, and I'd really like that. However, I've already expressed interest in making things for Mangacandy, so would it be rude to get a table then? I've been wanting have a table ever since middle school, it'd be a shame to graduate high school without ever even trying, in my opinion. Shana seems really enthused and willing to work just as hard as I will. This makes me really, really glad. I know that it all doesn't sounds very AP related, talking about stuff like this, but I plan on turning my artwork into tangible merchandise, and I feel that can really impress an admissions councilor, but maybe that's just me.
Another thing, I really wish I had a light box, it would make making these comic pages (for my concentration) much easier. I have had some progress with tweaking and editing what I've inked so far, though.
Okay, well...yeah.
