Record Player Bench

I'm going to use the campus woodshop to create a bench to hold my records and record player I think.

Here is the initial 3d sketch of what I am thinking....

BIRDS AND SNOW



Being who I am, I left the powercord to my laptop in stillwater meaning these images are without color / brightness fixings.

I imagine you can deal with that.

[edit] problem solved.

     The bird was a bit of a study of sketching with wet watercolors.  Vaguely inspired by an Arch professor I had (Moh) and also vaguely inspired by the bird that was outside acting a fool.  The second painting was just something to break out of being bored but turned out... ok?  I go back and forth on this little piece.  I think the trees in the background turned out well which was the focus of most of my attention whereas the tree in teh foreground I kind of dislike.  At first it was too bold but I ended up varying the line weights a little bit and now its less terrible.  Same with the bench.

     At any rate.  I can't tell how happy with it I am but its distracted me from my cabin fever so job well done I suppose.

Devons

i got it.... i got the drppl

well two of em.

crap drawings are surprisingly hard to draw.

i tried to mimic the Johnny Shen (whose done most of the deerpeople artwork) just enough to have my sketches fit in with their style.  I did sketches of all the members, but the only two who ended up recognizable.  are alex and kendall...  I can probably post more soon, but brennan really needs to make his face easier to draw before i can get his up.

Progress for Progress Sake

Devon Tower to Sell to Devon Employees (...hopefully)

RESEMBLANCE?

I thinned it a little to make it look more towerish.  Its an attribute that towers find attractice.

...towerishness.

After the ink, I will paint.

With towercolors, 

.....to accent its towerishness.

Back into the Real Stuff

Sent prints of this out for Christmas... I'm happy with parts of it but more watercolor practice is to come.

It's two kids under a tree with their backpacks.  The left kid's backpack makes her look lumpy, but really shes just smaller than her pack.
