D4M Update

So I've finally settled on the band idea but I'll probably end up coming back to the other in a later project.  Here's some examples of my renditions of that band members with this picture that I honestly found AFTER I drew the caricatures.  Pretty close, maybe?

So here are a few random things I have thrown together while brainstorming.  A few compositions and Andrew and Ben as doggies...

I think a lot of my first compositions were more focused on fancy backgrounds which is good for me (I've never been one to think too much about those) but bad for the project since is supposed to be character-based.  Here are the ones I thought had the best design but all may not be appropriate for the project.  The design that gets chosen will obviously influence the characters' design complexity as well as the color scheme.

So in case anyone doesn't know, MGMT is basically a band from the future playing music of the 70's... or is it the other way around?  Either way, the colors used on the final product will be very reminiscent of a 70's style.  Here's a few examples I made.

That's all for now! I feel like it will come together really fast once I get my composition down.

The Birthday Times

My little brother's birthday is on Halloween and right now he's finishing up his football season.  He's a pretty cool kid... but my dog is cooler as you can see.

Once again, done in markers because I still haven't replaced my stylus.  Hope he likes it since I have no moneys for real presents!

Since I'm posting this, I may as well post past-sibling gifties!

Here's my other little brother who actually said "Hey, you should draw a picture of me."  and since I forgot his birthday I drew this as fast as I possibly could.  He still looks pretty rad even with a miniature poodle while wearing a pink shirt (which he does frequently).

And my sister with her terrible adorable dogs.  (I LIKE DOGS, OKAY!?) This one's extra old, btw.

Can't wait until Halloween!!!
