Graphic Doodles #2 : "Pow!"

Photobucket

Here's my second attempt at my new "graphic doodle" series. I want to do some with some creative phrases and others with action verbs..."pow!" is always a good action verb to start off with ;)

Microsoft Paint Doodle #2

Photobucket

I did this one yesterday at my friends...again in computer class, this was the eeeasiest type of drawing to do...the "smiley face", where you take a circle and just add features to it and make it a face...i must've created over 100 something faces..of which 3 or 4 are saved, haha, but yeah..i miss those Paint days...things were so much more simple then ;)

Microsoft Paint Doodle #1

Photobucket

So before the time of Corel and tablets and Illustrator and Photoshop, the only graphic program I worked with was Microsoft Paint..

I remember my senior year in my computers class, when i was bored, i would draw on there, AAALLL the time, haha...especially when the teacher wasn't looking ;).

Recently at my friend's house I decided to play with the program again, and this is what came from it.

Drawing Day 2009

Photobucket

Drawing Day 2009 is tomorrow, June 6th!!!

For this particularly wondrous day, I've drawn inspiration from a good friend of mine and our university mascot...minus the wings, haha.

At first I was going to do a realistic approach, but thought it might be funner if I did it in the style I've been using the past couple months.

Hope you guys enjoy!

Photobucket

playing with line and color on corel, stiilll trying to get the hang of it...i've never gotten the hang of the pen/tablet, need practice!

corel drawing test #1

Photobucket

so i've got this brand new shiny wacom tablet, and with it came corel, a drawing/painting programs i've ALWAYS wanted to try...i've heard so many GREAT things about it...

i have spent the last 4-5 hours just playing around, so it seems that my drawings will be now tootaally digitally generated...up to this point i had drawn everything/scanned/colored in illustrator..

this was drawn/colored entirely on corel, hopefully will only get better from here!
