Time to say goodbye

Oh Pinocchio I'm seriously going to miss you. Finally finished, not for the class it was initially planned, neither the way I would've liked it to be in the end, but I found a way to make at least something out of it.
A seamless-fanfold-comic-zine-thingy!
Pity I couldn't photograph it before submitting but you're going to see some pictures of the real thing as soon as my semester starts again. For now have this:



Showing my university stuff online feels oddly… odd.
Btw, I have a website now: Congratulations! It's a portfolio!

Linien die so bleiben wie sie sind.

This week's homework is done and one thing it tought me is that I have no idea how I look…
It's not like I'm narcissistic or anything:

Painter, ink and drawing nip (saji pen), Artgrage, Copic (markers), acrylics, ink again with calligraphy pen and some screentones, back to Photoshop for the last one.

And an illustration for my screenprinting class:



This one is huge and was hella time consuming so leave me sulking in my corner since I'm still not exactly happy with it.

Ok it's official: I simply love drawing and will never enjoy anything that is graphic design related as much…
(+this semester I'm doing a basic illustration class again and our teacher is amazing! I'm still all high tension 'n stuff.)

And since I don't do anything despite uni/work-stuff have homework-poop (nah just kidding, in fact I like this one quite a bit):

(Illustration for a headline: "Applejünger ohne Jobs" - "Apple disciples without Jobs")

For next week's class we're going to draw a self portrait each day, first day: painter


(I had to challange myself with this task, I'll try to do every portrait in a different medium.)

And still not ginger!

Have a quick warm-up self portrait, an attempt on natural colors.

And a Van-Gogh styled Amy 'cause deep down I'm just a fangirl (and "Vincent and the Doctor" was fantastic!):
->Photoshop

New semester

And once again I'm telling myself: "This year is going to be SO different!" indeed things are going well atm - hoping for continuity.

Best so far:
1. Got into that damn screen printing class
2. Can speak English all day without getting weird looks (thank you, you lovely little exchange students!)
3. New reasons to use my sketchbook (and therefore this blog) again

Here we go:


Friend on floor and chick from mind with words that are totally not some lyrics from a Japanese boyband song…


What I do in writing classes… can't blame me, that teacher has such an interesting face! (And do I need to mention the coat?)

As you can see I'm full of energy and motivation! More to come.

One in a million

Unrelated title is unrelated.

I finished the comission and since it came out likeable and has been posted everywhere have some spam for this place too:



…and progression shots cause people seem to love these:

go there since I'm too lazy to resize it for my blog right now

For the final some Emma 'cause I love this girl and she's a princess. Period.

My grey sunny day

I'm staying inside today trying to get things done but I can't motivate myself the way I'd wished to… so… it's BLOGGING time. Wohoo.

A few weeks ago I made myself a schedule of what projects to be finished this semester, like this (on my door)



Somehow I don't feel like it changed much these days…



Well.

8 hour for 7 seconds - Animation. Story of my life. It looked like this (very low frame rate):



And since I used charcoal my room smelled easily inflammable and I saw rainbows all my cheap hairspray is gone.

1/3 of the backgrounds I did (and still need to do) for another animation.



There is one more picture I'd like to show but I'm still discussing with myself…
