Happy December everyone! We'll be starting off this month with the last set of old drawings and pages from an old sketchbook of mine.
First page is probably the only sketch I did to show off the futuristic setting for 2422; enjoy it while it lasts. With that page features another drawing of that rejected character I brought up the last time. Second page is a redesigning process of Mandy's dress, and the third page is another first sketch of the futuristic setting for 2422; enjoy it while it lasts.
And with that concludes this peak into one of my old sketchbooks! Of course, not every single page was shown off, and these pages aren't exactly the actual final pages in this book, but I think I've provided a pretty good idea of what's inside this sketchbook.
Hopefully soon I'll start posting pages of my last recently completed sketchbook!
We're nearing the end of this sketchbook!
Here's some full pages of doodles of the alien character Nevadri back when I was figuring him out. The last image is a character I created to fill in the gap of the small cast of male characters for the Propinquity character line-up.
Sadly, he was never implemented into the cast. I try not to force characters into anything unless they feel like they naturally fit well with others and contribute to the overall story.
This character was neither of these things.
Back again with more old drawings! For the 17th time!
Before you go on, I wanted to let you know that I'll be stopping with posting pages from my old sketchbook for now! Once I'm less busy, I'll continue with posting more pages since we're about half way through with this sketchbook!
I have an old doodle for a vehicle, the Japanese title/logo I came up for my "Propinquity" series, a full page of doodles which include Nevadri, a hoverboard, and Marilyn.
Regarding the Japanese logo, it reads "Tada Nakama," which means "Just Friends" or "Simply Friends." Normally, the word "friend" in Japanese is "tomodachi," but in this context it's a term that means friends, comrades, allies, etc., but with a stronger connection(s) towards one another. With this context, it can pretty much (in my opinion) be along the same lines with propinquity's definition. The logo is not the final design, but it definitely won't be that intense-looking; it'll most likely look like its English counterpart.
This dropped character's role is shown here: he would have worked at the local ice cream parlor that the characters usually visit.
The rest here are drawings of Robert going through a small change in design.
The first page are initial character concepts for an idea I'm currently playing around with. I really enjoy drawing their crazy tall vehicle truck car thing. Obviously, I'm still trying to work things out here. The second drawing is just a cartoon me using hologram glasses.
The third image is an old character I was gonna add into the Propinquity line-up, but ultimately decided to drop since he never worked out.
Finally the last image is just a b͜͡ì̡̛̀̀ǵ͟ ̶́ò̧͝͝l̶͝'̛͏̧͟͢ ̕͝͏̡́g͏҉ļ̷̀̕͢i̷͘͜͠t͘҉̵͜c̕͟͝h͘͟.
First post for October! Speaking of October, I've decided to partake in the Inktober challenge! I'm currently posting them on my personal social media pages, but I'll be sure to post them on here later. School's been keeping me pretty occupied and I don't have much easy access for updating the blog.
The Blogger app sucks a ton, but using Blogger on a mobile interweb browser is totally perfect, so I might use that.
Without further ado, here's more fun doodles from the past! (at least I think they're fun)
I think around this time was when I was messing around with redesigning Jake's hairstyle? It seems I'm never satisfied with any redesign for his hair. Heck, even now I'm considering changing it again!
But as you can see, we have a small drawing of Princess Daisy from the Super Mario series, Jake, Danny, and another short-haired Alyssa.
There's some good ones I like in this set.
The first picture is a drawing of a character from an old idea I kinda revived privately, then died just as quickly. One of that idea's main concept is still alive as another idea that I'll hopefully reveal later down the line.
The top half of the second picture is something I'm messing around with in my own time, but I really like the idea of an alternate universe where my characters have opposite personalities.
The last one is a mischievous-looking Daisy. Do not trust the Daisy with a face like that.
The twelfth post featuring more old drawings from old pages from a time long ago!
Nothing much to note here, unless you guys never knew that Jake loves practicing magic tricks. If didn't know that, then guess what? Jake likes performing magic tricks.
We've reached the eleventh post! No sign of stopping yet!
Even more old drawings of Marilyn, an old hoverboard design I used before changing it to what it is now, and a very protective Alyssa defending the one of the few things she enjoys: her TV and video games.
They're still coming!
Here we have Sally back in the old days, some video gamin' down time, and a full page of interesting drawings.
Another batch comin' your way!
We have Danielle freaking out about Halloween with Jake not helping the situation at all, Daisy in her costume redesigning process next to Alyssa with a different costume change and a small pony-tail, and lastly we have Daisy excited to find her new T-shirt has arrived in the mail. I know it's not known that well, but I created a fictitious band that Danielle and Daisy are huge fans of, named "Explosive Snow." You'll see more of the band later.
More and more to share!
More playing around with new cartoon styles. I'm still currently doing that now; I'll show off more recent experimentings later down the road.
Next up, we have a sassy McDonald's worker followed by more Danielle drawings. Lastly, we have an old concept of a nerd bullying around a jock. Looking back, I really like the idea of reversing the roles here. Maybe I'll go back to it some time.
Another one. Another one. We the best.
Here we have some old doodles of Marilyn, Kate, and Ted back in the old days. Ted's had a major overhaul since I initially added him to the line-up. Looking back at Kate, it's kinda funny to realized that she went through different hairstyles behind the scenes; I had a tough time settling on a good hairstyle.
Now we see two small drawings of Marilyn, and a futuristic vehicle design that I saw online somewhere. After that, we have ourselves some interaction between Mandy and Sally, again sporting the old design. I really like playing around with the interacting between those two. I really ought to do more of that.
More more more!
Some eggheads, a Jenny in her element, and Daisy's desire to see a violent slasher film.
Funny enough, the last picture is cutting off the bigger picture. Literally.
Danielle's on the other side of the poster, protesting against seeing the movie.
I know I don't post actual full pages, but to be honest some parts on some pages aren't that interesting to look at.
More old drawings from old sketchbook pages!
In this selection, we have a little drawing of Daisy and Danielle doing their thing, a full page of random drawings which include a short-haired Alyssa and an inked Daisy, and the last page is birthday situations for Danny and Alyssa.
Not sure if you guys caught on, but Alyssa curses regularly.
More interesting pages!
The first page is an old concept I was playing around with which involves turning those characters into superheros. I already have an episode idea that involves having superpowers, so those designs might be seen again way down the road.
Second page has some Splatoon hype and an angry-looking fish, and the third picture is one of the first few early drawings of Austin and Jennifer back when they had that design.
