Thanks, Jeremy! I most definitely will. High school is *soon* a part of the past, only exams left now, and then I'll finally have all the time in the world to work on my art.


Opening page 3 with some Beastie Boys

I finished that self-portrait. The likeness isn't quite there, but apart from that I'm quite satisfied with the result.



and here's some recent sketchbook pages. They're mainly filled with messy and stupid things beh. Got to shape up.
Also, got me a 0.3 drawing pen and a marker- they are super-fun to draw with!

More sketching.










and some very early progress on a 80s painting, fueled by procrastination. I might have bit off more than I can chew by going with a pose like that combined with slight bird's eye perspective but oh well we'll see how it ends up.

from a still from Aliens


from a photo of some figurine


from lyfe


Also, i've put up a livestream channel http://www.livestream.com/jensesesfarts for my digital paints.
It creates the illusion of performing in front of an audience, so it's harder to dooze off onto the interwebs. very useful.

Domo arigatio, Joe-san!

Here are some paintings from imagination.

An aircraft carrier spaceship thing. You park on top, and then live in the tubular part underneath. Based on a bath scale, hah!


A big fan of orange soda.


A tribal broad, basking in moonlight. It was originally going to be a chest up thing, but I got tired and cropped it away :/

And some photo studies. The former is from Inglourious Basterds, whereas the latter's from a photo of Gwendoline Christie.

art school stuff. back to basics- circles and lines, and life drawing. exterminate all style. build a strong foundation. maybe not too fun, but thats life. should pay off in the end!

sorry for the poor photos, and even poorer handling of charcoal

Figure drawing ain't easy. I have the hardest time balancing what I know (stuff from anatomy books, Loomis, etc) vs what I see.

I've made a habit to attend around 3-5 figure drawing workshops per week though, so I'll eventually figure (hah!) this out

Why do you need to find a balance between what you know and what you see? You should try to see what you know in the person in front of you and let it dip into your drawing. If you learned something you don't see on the figure, you learned something wrong! Don't struggle or fight with your knowledge, use it!

Thanks, Conte

Some guilty pleasuring in zbrush, after several hard months of fundamentals-courses, and a long long 3D hiatus.


Head study.



Feedback is welcome :]
