Updates on Assn 1

4 hours of work and thankfully some progress. I worked on the guitar idea Jean suggested (thank you sister, you're a life saver as always). Here's some initial sketches Jean helped me out with

Music Notes 1

From 2208

Ok i really gotta elaborate about Music Notes 1. Quite obviously Jean drew the "J" which you'll see in later pictures i really really really couldn't replicate. But shit happens and I'm moving on.

Guitar 1

From 2208

The quick 1 min sketch Jean did for me that would lead me to doing Guitar 2 and 3. More on that in awhile.

So I was finally on track by the 22nd (Monday) and I finally got down to some drawing in the lib. 4 hours straight and this is what came out.

Guitar 2:

Guitar 2 was the two most satisfying thumbnails I've ever done. It's hard to explain/describe it anymore; no words will do it justice. On to the first reasonable looking full size sketch.

Guitar 3: Les Paul

From 2208

I had wanted to do a full Joseph inside of a Les Paul'ish guitar, but I can't really fit the P and H in. I intend to figure it out though. Meanwhile it's just Joe.

I took a break from Guitars and moved on to my second theme which was Musical Notes. First sketch was a more cursive version of Musical Notes 1

I know it looks alike la... But zoomed in you'll see the details I wanted to put into the design. Had way too much fun playing with different pencils.

My favourite design for the night. The acoustic 4-string bass.

I had to start coloring it because i lost patience trying to show the holes were well... holes. So one thing led to another. The P and the H still gave me problems though.

Musical Notes 3

From 2208

Last bit for work for the night and it was the neatest. I didn't like the idea in the beginning but it got better and better the more I did it. I kinda dig it's assymetrism.

So that's it for this post. I'll add more comments when I've mulled over the designs.
