Day 365 - The Last Day

Well, today marks day 365, the last day of this challenge I set myself 1 year ago. It's been a journey for sure. I hope I've improved over the duration, and I feel I've done some learning along the way. Now I can focus on enjoying the process a little more - technically, but moreso the idea generation itself. Part of where I feel this project hasn't been successful is the lack of interesting ideas throughout. As I've said, technically I've learned various bits and bobs, but this next year I can take my foot off the gas and enjoy delving into more interesting ideas. Hopefully.

Thanks to all those who have supported me throughout, and watch this space for more development in 2014.

Day 364 - Ink Portrait

Vanilla.

Day 363 - Kitty

Anthropomorphized kitty creature sketch in Zbrush. The usual boring caveat of more time needed to make it look decent, but it was fun to do.

Day 362 - Comb Over

Day 361 - Leaning

Day 360 - Walker

Zbrush doodle which needs a whole lot more time to get it somewhere decent.

Day 359 - Shorts

Those would be christmas shorts.

Day 358 - Quiff

Not very Christmas Eve-y, I know. Maybe Santa's helpers look like this?

No. Probably not.

Day 357 - All Dressed Up

And nowhere to go.

Day 356 - Folksey Beard

Day 355 - Chelsea

Darkness seeps in ...

Day 354 - Bird Face

Reminds me a little of General Grievis (sp?).

Day 353 - Heady

Not headly.

Rough as badgers balls, but too tired to care.

Day 352 - Slick Hair

Had to be very quick with this. An exhausting day, little time on my commute, and needing to get up at 5:30 tomorrow morning, so to bed with me.

Day 351 - Hazel

Well, she looks kind of witch like. Not so successful a design today.

Day 350 - Santa Inspired

Dwarf/Santa/Kris Kringle.

Day 349 - Locks

Utterly uninspired doodle tonight. Hum.

Day 348 - Rush

One of those 'no ideas'.

Day 347 - Beard

Quickie last night.

Day 346 - Monk

Day 345 - Fists

Bleurgh.

Day 344 - Wounded

Zbrush sculpting fun.

Day 343 - Blue Face

Day 342 - Blown In From The East

Inspired by P.L.Travers' Aunt in Saving Mr Banks, her inspiration for Mary Poppins.

Day 341 - Buns

Day 340 - Giraffe/Goat Geezer

Thought this zbrush doodle was slightly goat like, then began to see more giraffe in it.

Day 339 - Turtle Neck

Day 338 - Beanie

This and the next post are late arrivals which I haven't had time to post due to a big push at work for a studio screening. Back on track ...

Day 337 - Strong Jaw

Zbrush doodle time.

Day 336 - Nobbly Noggin'

333 - that has to be auspicious.

Day 335 - Awkward

Simple simple simple.

Day 334 - Dinner Suit

And traditional again.

Day 333 - Strawberry

Traditional for a change.

Day 332 - Lanky

And a bit rubbish. Couldn't get it together today.

Day 331 - Orc

A day late sketch. Wrist slap.

Day 330 - Sky Bound

Day 329 - Feather Head

Day 328 - Spike

Day 327 - Bats

An odd version of Bats.

Day 326 - Sketchbook Pro doodle

Day 325 - Another Quiff-like Do

Started playing with sketchbook Pro on the surface on the way home today. I'm digging the line quality, something I was unable to have access to on it's sibling ipad version (lack of pressure sensitivity). Rough as balls sketch, but enjoyable.

Day 324 - Asian Woman

Another zbrush doodle today on the surface.

Day 323 - Commuter no.blah

I'll check what number but it's been a while since I did a commuter sketch.

Day 322 - Quiff

Dude has a big noggin.

Day 321 - Doggy Style

A quickish attempt at a dog in zbrush on the SP2. Only rule was no reference, hence the anatomy is off in places, and I'm hiding the paws as I didn't get to those. A good exercise.

Day 320 - Split Muzzle

Day 319 - 'G'

Day 318 - Pirate Time

Ahaaaaaarrrrr!

Day 317 - Scowler

Still trying to get used to PS on the Surface. I need to find a better layout for the scale of the tool windows and colour picker.
