Mall drawings and more...

Here are some mall drawings and a couple of random people sketches I'v done this week.. In there somewhere is a drawing of Kyle happily animating a sc.. such a cheery fellow... it's weird posting new work next to some old work.. You can really see the concious shift in my artistic direction.. I used to be all about making thing look "real". wheter that be through accuracy of likness of rendering techniques or whatever... Mostly because i was pretty bad at stylization. But once I decided that Animation was going to be the path that I wanted to take.. I started to focus more on getting the essence and character of a person across in a sketch. And flow... rather then technical accuracy.. It's still something I struggle with and have constant hit's and misses with as well... I think most of my approach back then was spurred on by an instructor telling me how crappy my face drawings were... So i felt a need to really shape up in that area... It's probably why i still draw many more facial studies than I do full figure ones.. Anyway.. enough babbling for today.. Have a good weekend!!!
