Some News and a Video

Well as someone has already realized i'm not having too much time to update my blog...
I'm going to start a new work on january and in the meanwhile i must search for a new flat and move back to rome again after one and half year spent in genova...making more than one thing at time makes me crazy guys (it's not a joke)so i've been not able to draw or animate or making creative kind of stuff and i'm not going to be able to do some until all the matters are settled in the best way.
I just spent some time travelling over India and i took a lot of pictures.
I finally decided to edit them in a video with some music.
Just clic on the Taj Mahal pictures to look at it.

evening nude class

the pose, since i'm always in late, was hard enough tonight...the spine torsion is something i tried at least a dozen of times,,the left shoulder aaaarggh and the worst thing is that i'm really incapable with chiaroscuro there's nothing to do with it...never practiced it and never found a teacher able to explain me how to start with it...he would like to see a kind of academic stuff...and i really feel like a student at his first day at school...brrrr

new wip revised proportions

trying out to roughly define proportions!!
suggestions welcome!!

char_development_small_update

some elements i found useful to group as a reference for development

char_development

i'm developing my own char based upon a caricature of myself...planning to make a CG version as well...i put this one up because of the lovely t-shirts style.i'll post up some more soon.

The sketchcrawl's one trough wacom

life drawing's class sketch 2

here it is today's evening class sketch
i'm happy about that since i tried for the first time to workout white on black.
The right part seems to work fine and i like it a lot!
i'm sorry about the left part of the drawing since i had not enough time to make it better...
i was supposed to refine the left shoulder,arm,hip,leg and also to make a try with the head and the hair...
what counts at this stage is that i enjoyed a lot in making my hands dirt and so i'll go forward trough this way.
cheers

life drawing's class sketch

here's a sketch from my evening's life drawing class,
after few unsatisfactory attempts i was happy enough tonight and i'd like to share it on myblog
even if it needs to be completed & refined.
I'll ask my lovely wacom to help me in doing it ;)

sketchcrawl_january_2008

just few drawings made for the sketchcrawl day...
i'm really woody with traditional pencils.
it has been a long time since i was infected by wacom viruz.
i definitely have to come back to make a deeper use of them.
