Was doing a session with Adrian this morning. I started working on this in the morning. My buddy adrian and I did a final sculpting session for the year via skype. Looking at this wip, rembering all the work ive done at this year at Red 5, and all the studying ive done. I can say whole heartedly that I have improved. I have two of my digital illustrations hung up in my home. I took a class with my best buddy and I learned a very important lesson. nothing beats the power of cataloging observation. I have learned more this year by applying what I learn from seeing the people around me. I constantly am applying the lessons of charles hu, bridgeman, hogarth, darcy korch, robert vigone, ryan kingslien, and care michaud. I can see all the forms I have learned about in peoples faces. im begining to see how some faces break rules. How flesh and bone interact. I can only keep growing and hope next year to grow even mmore. I'm updating this on my phone, so I apologize for errors. This wip is the head of the vulture. I am currentlt attempting to make the cover of "the Amazing Spider-Man" issue 387. This is the first comic I remember ever getting. It was a key piece in my life of what made me want to be an artist. I originally wanted to be a comic book artist. I realized this week after picking up issue 700 of amaing spiderman, that I still love comic books. I also realized that just becuase I am a digital sculpter, does not mean I cant do comic related projects. so I am re-creating this cover in 3D! It is the best way to pay homage for something that inspired me to my bones. I cant twll you how many times I drew this cover and its pages. Vulture steals Spideys youth! It's awesome! must get ready for new years. Cheers everyone. Last wip of 2012!
Be safe everyone. And keep fuckin sculpting. May the force be with us all in 2013.
