Finals for Advanced Character Design

Finally get to see them

I haven't seen my sister in over 5 years.
I am trying to finish a set of 5 paintings for her and her husband of their children and them.
This is the most recent one, I am almost finished with it.

Chloe Hendriks process

I've been wanting to sketch something nice out for my sister for a while, and my family recently found out that she wont be able to come out to the U.S from Holland this Christmas, so I decided to do this for her. It's a sketch of her beautiful daughter Chloe Jade Hendriks





Here is the process:

Our first Pumpkin Carving

Halloween is coming soon, so Aaron and I are trying to get ready for it.

Here are some images!












I should note that it DID break. It wouldn't have, but Aaron was trying to "pound the rest of the junk out" from the bottom and it fell over our back padio and broke into pieces. Luckily we were able to fix it.

Our Halloween will be pretty quite for the most part, but...
We're going to Knotts on the 31st!
YAY!

T-Shirt Design

I've been working on a T-Shirt Design for this website for a while, a potential to win a fair amount of money and have my artwork as an article of clothing both sounded super appealing!

So here's the product:





I love the tan color with the design the most, but the black and white also look pretty awesome, imho.

Character Modeling

A design I came up with for Character Modeling class, I wanted to do something a little different, so I thought a cross between Real Monsters and Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends. Thus this idea.

Here are my original concepts:



Some thought the pirate was too overdone, some thought the monster creature was too simple, and most liked the witch. I agreed with the majority of the comments, but I felt I'd go with the one they thought was the weakest and try to make something enjoyable.

My boyfriend hates the design, haha, but I like it.

Again, thanks to Mr. Patrick Ballesteros for his crit.
