First, I have produced pretty much ZILCH since my last post. I've been so caught up in reason number two that I haven't had time to really do anything worth posting about. That's the truth, and you can take that to the bank, though they'd probably just hand you a giant loan just for walking in as dictated by the fed.
Anyway, I digress.
Secondly, I've been facing an occupation change for the last month. A few friends of mine from college recently founded a design company called Zubian Studios. So far, they're trying their best to get on their feet by doing various design jobs, logos, tshirts, anything that will bring in money for the company. I've been prospectively hired to head their iPhone game department. Very exciting for me, obviously. I can make simple games that go on the cool iTouch and iPhone, and then post them on iTunes for all the world to see and buy. This is a VERY big step in the direction I want to go.
Obviously, the fact that it's a new company is a little worrisome. They've decided that actual wages won't be paid until about September, so I've been holding onto my current full-time job while also going to class 5 nights a week and devoting all my other spare time to Zubian. No joke, it's been MAD hectic. It's been fun and exciting for the most part, but still sleep depriving.
I was hesitant about jumping ship for a while and going to a job I had no guarantee would last a year. However, ASF has begun changing their production process pretty significantly, and it will definitely make my position there completely superfluous. I mean, would you pay a full-time wage to someone who walks in and then is done 2 hours later? I don't think so. That's mostly solidified my decision to jump to Zubian in the near future. As in, within the next couple of months.
That's my two reasons, and I hope you are all quite placated so as not to spam my comment fields with hateful messages. Though, admittedly, I'm sure if I continue to be so long winded, you won't even get that far. :D
So I'll cut to actual art. I have here one of the products of my Life Drawing Class. No, it's not a nude model, though they might be, but you can only see their heads. We spent the last couple of weeks practicing heads. I have a few others that I don't feel is worth posting here, but these, I think, were my best. The two on the right came before the other 4, so you can see a change in shading technique that I've come to like. Please give me any criticism you have and let me know which head you like da best, though I think I know what everyone's answer is going to be. :)
In other art news, the polls have closed, and my viewers have weighed in. Once I have some pieces that I want to post that involve nude models, I will upload them to a separate site and just give you a hyperlink with large, annoying warnings about the content. Hopefully everyone will be nice and happy with that.
I'll have some more stuff to post later on, so thanks for checking in!
