I've started the course when my creativity was running dry. Had to doodle a bunch before I could get the first day's drawing done. My first drawings were all done with a pen for some reason.

Day 1 - Journey!

A tiny little person in a tiny little doodle, going into the unknown. I don't know?

Day 2 - Cloud Watching

Those stylish curves deserved an equally stylish person. I truly hate how the hair turned out though.

Side note: I've always had a reference for my drawings. Maybe for the pose or for a prop or maybe I just wanted to double check the hand I had drawn. It was actually interesting to have all my reference on the paper itself.

Day 3 - Feelin' Slow

I had no clue on how to approach this one so I just went and drew the slowest lines I could with my trusty pen. It started to remind me of the shape of a lightning so I went that way. I guess I just went with the flow?

Day 4 - Shake it up!

It was about time that I used something other than a pen. I really went as crazy/energetic as I could with my lines. It had been a while since I last used my posca pens.

Again, going with no references was freeing really. I have drawn wings before so I imagined it on the paper and drew it. Then looked again to what I had drawn so far, thought about what it needs and added more wings and action lines.

Day 5 - Metamorphosis

I liked how this one turned out. Started as me just doing a shape similar to the sign of infinity(8 but horizontal), which became the form of our fuzzy friend. The change of a soft structure into a solid one(or maybe the other way around?) did go with the concept well. I had the urge to fill in more fur but got scared of ruining the drawing in the process, so I didn't.

Day 6 - Metamorphosis 2

I did manage to use the whole canvas to form these weird curves. I did have to rotate the notebook a buncha times to get the lines right. While it looks like a volcano exploding from that angle...

It kinda resembles a giant tree from this angle. That works for metamorphosis, right?

Day 7 - Crowd of Creatures

I let my mind wander with this one. Did random shapes until I ended up with the fella on top of the pipe. Tried to make them as different as possible while looking like the same species? I did cheat this time and look at reference for the antlers, but I got no regrets.

Day 8 - Colors here and there

In my defense, I was supposed to use colors of that day. The day was "same ol' same ol' " except for a nice little moment of laughter. Tried to represent that as a literal splash of color.

Day 9 - Not so flat

So hear me out. I was trying to draw those eyes as flat as possible and I wanted them to flow as a group. You see, when the eyes get smaller and smaller into the distance(while being flat) it apparently gives the drawing some depth. And those eyes gotta be going into SOMETHING and when that something is a giant eye flower, the whole thing looks 3 dimensional. Who woulda thunk?

Day 10 - Thread

I really don't know how but I remembered "train of thought" as "thread of thought". So, yeah, you can see how that went. Even made the thought bubble like a brain and all.(without reference this time!)

Day 11 - Transform me

I wanted to change the first drawing a little bit. Yet, the drawings themselves felt special somehow? They were done! quickly! That's such a new concept for me. I didn't want to change that in any way. So I went ahead and redrew it digitally and added the very things that I can't draw that well: "clouds".

Day 12 - Structure

I never really could figure out the structure of curly hair. This was my chance! Tried my best here, it reminded me of a jellyfish as I kept drawing, so I embraced it.

Day 13 - Take 2

Again, with the digital. 2 very different brushes for the "soft" and "solid" looks. It somehow doesn't sell the impact feel but I like it nonetheless. It's always

Day 14 - Texture

While I had a perfectly fine wooden table texture, I went and decide to draw the big ol' salt rock on my desk. Look at this guy, with random looking textures and patterns...

14 Days of Doodlin' - image 16 - student project

But I managed it! While it didn't look very similar to my reference, I focused more on giving it that rock texture. I think it worked.
