AfricanVoodoo's Sketchbook
#38
Taking a break from the character line-art that I am trying to do. It has been an experience honestly. I have to change up my strategy for the next character because I made too much mistakes (not fully understanding the character, not finalizing my brushes, and the lack of planning ahead)

Next time, I should do a bunch of thumbnails of the same character in different poses. Choose one. Scan and crop that one thumbnail and enlarge it. Do a less shitty sketch on Photoshop, refine it more and more until I get the line art that I want. Now that I am using brushes that I like, I won't have to pause my progress on my piece just so I can make a new brush that fits the situation that I come across.   

That's the plan I suppose.

Art colleges

Talking about art colleges near artists usually heat up some debates if artists should go there. 

The art college that I am thinking about going to is SCAD Savanna in Georgia. I did not hear that much negative feedback towards the college so... might as well give it a try right? I even talked to a SCAD student via email and she mentions that Savanna is a historical and cultural landmark in the U.S., so there is most likely a bunch of statues and art surrounding me which helps with thinking up of dumb shit to put in my sketchbook.

I yearn to go to an art college because it helps with connecting with people and studios and famous artists. It will finally makes me connect with other aspiring artists instead of hobbyists at my high school. Relating with people who do things like me is soooo relaxing think about. Even though I am shy as a damn dog in the rain, meeting people is still... magical to me(?) New personalities, new drama, new people to smile at. It's just nice to talk to someone y'know, especially about stories and art.

Plus I heard they have these sleeping pods where you go inside, set a timer and sleep with whatever music surrounding you. Ya'll already know that after class I am going to fly into those things like Super-fucking-man.

1000-Studies Challenge

I've seen some people on here who are doing this challenge where you do 1000 studies of whatever. I mean... I am the king of doing small doodles on my sketchbook so I might try it out doing the summertime.  Looks fun and inspiring!

There was also a challenge that Holly Brown on Youtube is doing too called the "10-A Day" Challenge. Where you pick a topic then draw ten of those in your sketchbook everyday. It's a visual library kind of thing and that also looks like a very effective thing to do (especially as an upcoming character artist)

Back to the line-art I go.
