Drawing Next + Update

Welcome to another post! I am going to say here what I'm drawing next, as well as when I'll start posting about it again.

So, school is almost out, meaning, if you aren't (as a class) preparing for the final exam (YAAAAAAAAAY*), then you are looking at the next topic for your class. This is usually something you will continue in high school. For example, in Science, we're learning about DNA, and in Algebra, we're doing Geometry. This also means end of year projects!!! (YAAAAAAAAAY again!**). I am currently working mostly on my Geometry project, not to mention the script for this class's TED Talk.... I, therefore, cannot do as much on the actual research of my project. BUT...

.... I can show you what I'm drawing next! I decided to go with Captain America, since I just saw Civil War (Amazing). I'll keep you posted*** about the drawing. Here's what I'm drawing! [Insert cool outro here].

Drawing Progress Posts

Here are the transition posts  that I meant to put out, but didn't get the chance to.



1. Here comes Calvin and Hobbes! So far I have part of the skeleton and then Calvin and Hobbes's heads.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Now I have the drawing finished, but it still has the guideline lines and so I'm gonna move it over to another paper for polishing. Meredith helped me out with this. What you do is you shade really hard on the back of the paper you're using (over the back of the drawing). You then put another paper underneath the one you used, and you trace the lines you wanted on the drawing, and it comes out faintly on the paper beneath. Trace it to darken it, and voila! Here is the ugly one with the guidelines and eraser marks. I also had to shorten Hobbes, or else it wouldn't work.

3. Time to sit down with some hot chocolate, and start shading and darkening the drawing.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. Just finished my hot chocolate and my drawing. Just gonna add a bit more, and that's it!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5. Here it is! I'm going to research the rest of my realistic part of my project, and finish up with a drawing. Like I said, if you have any ideas, that would be great. So far I have a superhero, or Link from Legend of Zelda as my drawing ideas. Thanks for following this blog!

Next Project

I haven't finished my Calvin and Hobbes drawing, but I want to see what people want me to draw for my realistic drawing. I will accept ideas, but I was thinking of Link from the Legend of Zelda series. If you have any ideas, please comment!

Schedule

I am going to lay down the schedule for the next few posts.

For the past week or so, I have been studying the art of witchcraft  cartoon drawing and I have decided to do my do my cartoony project, which is going to be Calvin and Hobbes. To be specific, this picture.How to draw Calvin and Hobbes from the Comic Strip Calvin and Hobbes with easy step by step drawing tutorial
I won't finish for a day or two, but I'll post my progress. Wish me luck! I don't want to butcher these guys in my drawing.

What I need to improve for my presentation

To day I gave my presentation, and let's just say it went just as well as I predicted (meaning I caused a stroke or two). I decided the thing I needed to learn most is probably my explanation and also my filler words. Time to practice! My next post will most likely be the first drawing project for my before and after. Wear your sunglasses/other protective eye-ware.
