My 1950's

Well i was thinking for a while and came up with redoing a movie poster whats better than old cheesy horror. shamefully its not done wanna do the last part very well pretty much 50% there and need my damsel in distress of course. Well critique away i'll add suggestions to the final product.

color pencils & micron

sandwich girl

originally, i was trying to go for the "perfect woman" pinup but then meredith beat me to it

so now there's a sinister twist to this pinup....who's neck seems a little flat D:

oh and yay i tried texturing

i'm beginning to think i have a fetish for cyan O_o;;;

errrm i dunno if the foreshortening of the legs comes across clearly or not :\

reworked

i feel like the legs are still too short =.=

blergh

reinventing the 50s

Alrighty here, gang! Sorry this is a bit late...

I wasn't happy with how the painting I was doing for this assignment was turning out... and I'm really eager to just work on some personal pieces sooo... I've decided this week to not stress and just turn in some sketches. We have the anti-poodle skirt girl in a bulldog skirt annnnddd a housewife who decided hell, why do the dishes when I can drink some bubbly with my dog? Enjoy.

The Ultimate Woman

Look! It's Barbie/Housewife/Pin-up! THE ULTIMATE 1950's WOMAN. She even has a sandwich.

WELL. THAT WAS FRUSTRATING. The background was very last minute, as I'm sure you can see D:

Beth's Daymn! That's Sexy!

Can I just say... I LOVE PIN-UP GIRLS!!!

I think this is the best thing I've done this summer. I really really enjoyed doing it. This figure is actually of one of my close girl friends Jillian Wernette. She's absolutely beautiful and doing this of her makes me want to do more. I've got two other really close girlfriends and myself... I think I'm going to do a series of us four. OH! I loved this!

I had to do all of this today because I had a commission to finish this week. This took me about 6 hours... BUT IT'S DONE!

Also, check out my blog to see the process pictures.

let's all go live in the 50's

oh hey guys,

since i got kicked off of the couch and can't watch the glee finale tonight, imma post this week's topic:

basically, i was thinking along the lines of incorporating or reinventing things from the that wonderfully conformist decade.

you know, the age of the pin-up girls, muscle cars, deliriously happy looking nuclear families, and retro horror posters! mmm i'm already salivating from thinking of all the beautifully illustrated gender role advertisements :D

good luck y'all!

and btdubs, mary drizzle is the next chosen one =^.^=
