Bailie Oliver Oh! death..by..college! Do you have a deviantART or something? I wanna see your artssss! ! sorry for not replying quickly. i'm currently working on another contest entry for Carnality. Here's my dA! You'll be able to see the utterly shameless anime in me xDDDD But! I'm proud (to an extent) of my work so far, and I'm confident in my charcoal/graphite realism when based off a live model (for some reason I suck at ref pics from the web? but that could be because they're not as subjective, so i can actually be 'wrong' or inaccurate in some places xDDD). but but yeah! check it out if you want (and i'm so happy you asked! x3 !!) do you have a dA? oh! and where on LuLu.com is your comic (i may have to check this out, hurhurhur!)? sorry i have yet to reply to your other lovely response D: !!! *goessss* |

Bailie Oliver Ahhh those subway cookies always look amazing oh man. Oh god I totally know how you feel lol, I always loose weigh at school and then come home and get delicious fatty yummy foods and it's baaadddd. I need my rice and turkey meatballs to stay somewhat thinner baaahhhhhh ha ha I can understand that! I feel the same way, there's a lot of resources at school that I don't get here, but I try to use the internet as much as I can xD I reference a lot of stock photos and 3D pose websites to make up for a lack of live models. But also, the summer is totally an excuse to ignore the pressure of perfect finished pieces, wonderful compositions and all that stuff! I just like drawing for fun ahhhh, so nice. Aw :C That seems like it would be hard. You could always go to graduate school for art to try and learn more? But I know a lot of people majoring in art at state schools, and they really like it because they feel more well rounded. Oh and yeah, I have tons of friends that should have graduated YEARS ago. Switching majors and schools is really hard. I think the major difference between art college and other colleges with art majors is mostly preparation for an art career and having professional artists as teachers. Which might not even be true, this is just what I've noticed. If you try your best and are confident about your artwork then I'm sure you could be a pro C: As for my comic, at my school our senior year is working on a project that will help us get out into the art world (along with other classes). We have to pitch our idea to the department heads, and I pitched creating the first issue of my comic the first half of the year, and the second issue the second half of the year and they approved it. I'm going to be self-publishing the first issue by the end of this year, and I'll probably put out a few issues to local comic shops and such. I'm also publishing through LuLu.com, so people can buy the comic on there too! It's exciting, but yes, very scary. I plan on applying at animation and video game companies along with the comic. I know people at Harmonix who were pretty interested in my stuff so it's pretty exciting! oh man, i'm excited for you! 8DD that's a really good project, and it forces you to extend into the pro world even from a distance--a nice stepping stone. i probably will go to graduate school. i actually would like to be an art professor (most likely for drawing/painting when I actually take (a) painting course(s)), but that in itself seems like an intimidating position to 'quest after' (gaia dorkdom, lollll). i've thought about video games for sure, but am WAY intimidated by learning new software and 3D modeling etc etc. omg it's SO SCARY *coward!!* ahaha my favorite video game artist actually isn't an anime guy--Takayoshi Sato, the lead concept artist for Silent Hill and Silent Hill 2 (SH being my favorite series in the UNIVERSE hfaklfshf ... *is a freak xDDD*). His website is pretty cool, if not all that streamlined or professional-seeming xD (but that's kind of cute haha), and it shows sketches etc. He really is my role model for life drawing--the expressions (examples: [x] [x] ) he can pull off are just drool-worthy to me 8Q!!!! you have any artistic role models/idols/etc? i'm interested to see where you get your muse 8D ~~ heart ! |

And I have totally seen you around dA before, I definitely remember that 'spared' picture ahhh. Oh wow, I am super impressed, I love your style. The coloring and everything is really gorgeous. Fffff never complain about your anime influences again, you definitely have your own awesome style and it's awesome. I AM WATCHIN' YOU! I'm oneeyedrobot on dA! Oh it's not up there yet xD My summer is dedicated to designing the characters and laying out the pages. The comic should be up on Lulu by December though C: |

That would be awesome! I have a few friends graduating in art education and it seems really cool, and you'd probably always have a job. Which is definitely good in an art career ha ha. Oh god I know, I have no idea how I could learn all that 3D stuff and software and ahhh, very scary. I'm hoping if I get a video game related job it's all designing stuff with drawing ha ha. Ooooh I love silent hill! That was a fun game. His work is really, really nice! I love the life studies as well, they're really gorgeous. I like how he handles the line and weight. He's really good at positioning hips and everything ahhh, so nice! And oooohhhh the environments are excellent too. My favorite artist is probably Tara McPherson, her colors are like, awesome. I also really like McBess. Everything he draws is like...the best thing ever. |
