CoreyH - Thanks! I had a look at your sketchbook too, you've improved quite abit too :D.
JakeB - It wasn't a monk, its Jiro, from the documentary Jiro Dreams of Sushi. Its worth the watch!
Markus - Thanks. I was freaked out by your beastmaster, felt like he was staring into my soul xD.
Jaik - You win 10 bonus points xD. I'll check that movie out, I think I have it but it didn't have english subs :(. Thanks for the encouragement.
K so this week, the smallest of updates. The forgivable reasons as always are drawing alot on paper studying dark souls designs and this red ink teacher guy http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=59317 . I got the link from http://eyecager.tumblr.com/ , which is still my favourite tumblr which I will keep telling anyone who listens to visit. I've come to really like studying design/construction/memory stuff using pen/mechpencil, because I feel when I do it on the computer I don't commit to lines and stuff, so I can just erase till it looks right. I'm also still studying anatomy with echroche stuff, but read previous post why i'm not posting it.
The unreasonable reasons for small update, I got this game called Monaco on a whim, and played that abit with friends. Almost finished it so soon that will be out of the way. The other reason was Eva 3.33, had a viewing party with friends. Unfortunately, the movie failed to meet expectations (it failed spectacularly), but that took up most of a day. Then I wanted to watch norcal regionals, a fighting game tournament... I promise next week, less slacking :(.
So, here's the little I will bother showing.

Some more workflow tests. I think I have something I like for extremely quickly painting something emphasizing drawing and making it read.

More 15 min color studies. This time the coolest Chinese kekai kotaki, zhong feng hua.

Pushing that sketch further. I'm not feeling it though so this might be as far as I take it. I found something else I wanna push to finish anyway. I'm starting to realize I need some kind of long term project if I want to push myself to make finished works. I wish one of my friends was a sick writer.
Well that's this week, I promise heaps of work back to productivity next week. There's only like 4 more missions left in Monaco to play...
