hi guys
ok long time lurker first time member exclaim
my name is amanda, i'm 21 years old
i go to school at Pratt university's satellite campus in Utica, New York
where i also live with my parents
and i need y'alls help ok.

i think i'm pretty aware of my weaknesses: anatomy, CG, drawing things other than 3/4 profiles...the list goes on. But i hope that you guys can help me fix them?!

ok so minidump:

an avatar headshot which i am particularly proud of, despite (or perhaps because of) its resemblence to elizabeth berkley in the movie Showgirls.

i think this is a weak piece. i feel like i need just tons and tons of help in making my CG work look decent. this is definitely a big part of why i applied to this guild: hopefully you guys can really lead me in the right direction.

i dunno i just really like this one. it's so goofy looking.

this was a school assignment. we were looking at the fauvist mini-movement and had to make fauvist-inspired self portraits. while this is probably not real fauvism, i'm still proud of myself for making a decent flesh tone with acrylic paint :B

--I'd like to take this time to apologize because i didnt realize i had imageshack set to resize all my images. If you want higher res of these they're all on my deviantart.--

Hey another Pratt kid! blaugh
Your anatomy isn't that bad. the figures are a bit stiff but they're not terribly disproportionate. If you really feel it's bad, just keep going to open drawing sessions. Also, i don't know if Utica has any animation classes, but if you can try and take drawing for animation as an elective. I'm in it right now and not only is it fun, but it's extremely helpful.

As for CG-ing, there's a bunch of really awesome painting tutorials on furiae.com on all kinds of things. Also, color theory applies to everything including digital painting. Don't forget it!

yeah i'm just learning more about color theory now
and how colors relate to one another
so hopefully i'll start showing some improvement.
pratt utica does not in fact offer an animation course. or very many courses at all :<

Okay. I'm sorry about this but its really bothering me. The arm on the left is waay to short. Otherwise I really like it. I love the way the legs end and the position is really cool.

Newest pic: looks really cute. The line quality is really nice, esp on the head wrap. I can get a real sense of the cloth being wrapped around on top of itself.
