T2W5, Wednesday

Figured out the hands. Just inbetweening the first section now. Currently have finished 3/15 frames. Will hopefully be finished by Thursday.

T2W5, Tuesday

Working on AP3. Up to the rough clean up stage as I try to redraw the frames so that they're on model. Having difficulty with the hands did some studies on paper.

T2W2, Friday

So my shading process basically breaks down into reduction and addition. I start with a darkened canvas and then make the lights lighter and the shadows darker. But today I only managed to get the canvas a bit darkened and struggled with adding lights. Suspect this is because it's the first time I've tried to shade digitally and need to learn some new technique ie you can't just wing it like you would with a pencil. Will get more done when I get home.

T2W2, Thursday

I got more work done today than in the past three days. Good but also not good. Have laid down most of the flat colours and am now adding details to the bushes before adding lighting and shadows.

T2W2, Monday

I really don't know what I'm doing when it comes to digital painting...

T2W1, Friday

Missed the first two days of this term. So got a late start on this week's assignments. Have started to develop a more definite direction for the hybrid character design assignment that is I've decided to design a mermaid based on jellyfish and a dolphin or shark I haven't decided yet. Finished a basic text outline of the storyboard two assignment. Still have to design the hitchhiker and start thumbnails.
