week 6: skyline



okay so ive done a million of these sketches and they pretty much came out the same. still i didnt feel like i had it down until last night. i was feeling kinda down so i went out to a movie and then hit a bar and sketched some stuff on napkins. this was one of them, i threw it ino photoshop, had some fun and ended up with this.




this one is kinda a stretch, and is kind of a inside thing. awhile ago i had been too busy to recycle the beer and soda cans that had slowly accumulated on my desk, yes i realize how that sounds, anyway my then-girlfriend saw it and laughed that i was constructing an aluminum city. in shame i grabbed a trash bag and dumped them in the recycling bin downstairs. anyway it was a memory that popped into my head and i thought that id sketch it out.

enjoy!


edit: rough on napkin.



edit a different take:

per request, a rural scene.



inspired by fond memories of summers where i grew up.


edit: cleaned up earlier attempt, along the lines of the first sketch.

Hey, I really like your graphic work - i don't even know how you do that stuff (like the colour pic of you? looking into the skyline and the rural scene - that's great). is it ps?
the sketches are great too, it's inspiring to see what you can capture, even on a napkin! i like the way you photoshopped that, gives it a way different feel and texture.
i also particularly like the way you portray smoke/tea steam. and, for eg., the 3d feel of the pic below this "backlog:tea". good work!
