Ref sheet like this would be $25, as it has an extra view.

So, after little more than 2 years, I decided it was time for a change.

(And yes, there's stuff I forgot to erase. Deal with it. I was about to flip tables because I was getting so frustrated.)

Back in January of 2010, I did this: http://avenstudios.net/gallery/2010/snowhawk_jan2010_color I was intending on drawing a back view, but completely forgot and never did. Thus, I made the SL av ref sheet(s).

Yesterday, after doing a test run the night before (http://www.flickr.com/photos/snowhawk/6857640393/in/photostream), I decided to make the coloration official and make a ref sheet for her.

Then I forgot how to draw.

But I had to try something, my mind wouldn't let it go. After 3-ish hours of failed sketches, I pulled out the 2010 image, upped the resolution, and threw it into SAI, reinking it, then dumping it into Photoshop to color. (The Wine-wrapped SAI has no pressure sensitivity, and is very jittery.)

I then tried to convert this into a backview... still not able to draw. After another 3+ hours of failure, I gave up and went to play Skyrim.

So here, a preview of Snowhawk's new markings. She's now a (purple) bay with dapples and countershading.

Tiny tablet, you make me rage so much. You will be relegated to flat coloring work once my mom gets the 9x12 sent to me.

This week (okay, last week because I forgot to upload this here), Decker takes a look at the 2002 straight-to-video, Jean-Claude Van Damme movie, "Derailed."

Funnily enough, the facepalming at the toy helicopter (and "5-year old got a hold of the art tablet" background) turned out to be appropriate for the review. :D

I did have to rush this one more than I would have liked. I have been having a lot of back problems lately, and not able to sit at my computer to work very long lately.

Second title card for Decker Shado. This week, he looks at the 2010 movie "Predators".

http://blip.tv/decker-shado/decker-shado-reviews-predators-5925222

I took a LOT of liberty with the Predator. >_> Everything was either based off of dark screen captures, or a 1:6 toy that kept popping up in my searches.

This has to have been one of the most challenging pieces I've done, and not sue there was a human in it! I've never even attempted to draw a Predator (and back in the 80s, I was not exactly interested in the original Predator movie because Ponies and being a scaredy cat girl).

It's not perfect, but I am pleased with it.

The images used for reference for Berserker Predator are as follows:

I'm not sure how to classify these... :X

Decker Shado is a long-time friend of my fiance, and when he got his movie review series going, I offered my artistic services for title cards.

The first up was for a movie from 1973 called "Sssssss" ... So Here's a happy snake (...) jumping out of the DVD box. :D

"'sup, bro?"

I did the rough, rough sketch for this in my sketchbook, then the rest is, obviously, completely digital. It was nice to get to drawing something that a) wasn't a horse and b) wasn't a furry (even though, yes, the snake is a little anthropomorphized).

What I did for the DVD box, as it's the only thing that I didn't freehand and I know it looks much smoother than most of my lines, was to take a picture of the first DVD box I could get my hands on (and it was actually the case for the XBox Godfather game), then copy the edges with the pen tool. The DVD cover is the actual cover, and I found the cover on this site: http://www.triskaidekafiles.com/reviews/2010/6/28/sssssss.html

I didn't have much time to pull this together, so I do admit to cutting corners there.

Next week's review is Predator, and I should have some fun with that. Certainly not something I normally draw, but I like challenges.

You can find his Blip page here: http://blip.tv/decker-shado

Non-titled version can be seen in my personal gallery: http://avenstudios.net/gallery/2012

Hopefully~ regular commissions will start in February. Until then, I'm taking smaller things.
