Typomatic
A piece of some side illustration thing I’ve been doodling. Although it is related to my current project (obviously, I swear I don’t even LIKE the Arcade Fire most of the time but this ONE DAMN SONG), I’ve more been using it to unwind while working on the script or on pages, so it’s not really something I need to get done… just want to.
There is something pretty fantastic about that, though. Throughout my college career, my will to draw for myself has been minimal, if not totally nonexistent. Even during my breaks, I never can really arse myself to just draw and stop caring about the why. It’s not a bad thing, necessarily, but I haven’t really had the chance or urge, even, to illustrate something based on a character (rather than a concept or a metaphor, as per the usual). Now that I’m working on a project all of my own doing, all I want to do is draw draw draw
I’ve missed drawing you, my brainchildren.
The best part is that I could turn this in for credit, oh ho ho. (And I probably will.)
Also, I feel like I need to give this project a proper name. More or less so I can stop referring to it as The Project.
FUN FACT! I draw everything in greyscale before adding textures or colors. If I can get the contrast down first, then picking colors is easy.
