Finally had some time to finish watching apocalypse now (the redux version is about 3 1/2 hrs). I was inspired to draw some foxy ladies after watching the R&R scene (where the playboy bunnies dance)

Here is a quick sketch I made yesterday when I took my brother to school. I walked out and the sky and the air had a red glow....its ridiculous how red/orange it was...it looked very post-apocalyptic. 

It got me thinking about this music video

its definitely one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs! :)

I felt that the portrait I posted in the morning was kinda off so I thought I'd try a different approach.

I've got title block... :-/

I just came to a realization literally a couple of minutes ago so I felt the need to post about it. For the past couple of weeks I've been forcing myself to sketch traditionally....so I haven't touched photoshop other than to color. I did this because I felt that my work was becoming all digital (all the work I did last semester was digital, even my sketches) and when I tried to sketch traditionally once the semester was over, it was like I had to relearn how to do it and it was mostly all bad. However,since sketching traditionally, I felt that I've already learned what I lost and some new things too. Tonight, while working on an illustration, I got stumped and couldn't get the right look for the main figure no matter how hard I tried. On a fluke, I used sketchbook pro and got the figures' face in one try and I realized that I physically draw differently while using my tablet.... I realize that this is probably very obvious to others but I wasn't thinking about it. I think what helped me was taking such a long break from using my tablet. From now on, I going to try embrace these two ways of doing things and hopefully my work will benefit.! :)

Now that I'm done talking.... I figured I might as well show you the sketch, as well as the traditional ones.
