SP#01 Baby Owl

14th Jan 2015

Did a speedpainting after REALLY long! It's been forever! I hope I keep this up. This is SP#01 for NY 2015! This owl didn't end up looking like the reference, but I think my eye either saturates things or desaturates them. Either ways he still looks like a really cute fluffball! >_<

Happy New Year 2015!

11th Jan 2015

And a very happy new year to all!! I've been having the best of everything. Work is balanced with play so far - been travelling so much whenever a project ends! There's been a huge mixed variety of work we've been doing so far. Hopefully this year we'll kickstart with some great animation projects!

I finished my Professional Storyboarding Course with CGMA Academy and working on some commercial as well as personal work! Unfortunately everything we've got is still confidential until release, so will only be able to share that later. I only hope I manange to squeeze in time for personal work and fitness now! And then I'd have nothing to complain about. ;)

Happy New Year 2015 everyone! Hope to share something concrete soon! Until next update, enjoy this quick storytelling panel I did for fun.

Mikki Ekko Study

20th Nov 2014

Haven't done a speedpainting in really long! Felt totally out of touch. :( Anywho, this is Mikki Ekko from the 'Stay' music video by Rihanna ft Mikki Ekko. I loved this frame, the balance, cam movt, lighting was just gorgeous. Crossed the clock by 30 minutes. :(!

Critiques greatly appreciated!!

Total time taken: 1 hour 30 mins

Inktober Day 1, 2, 3

1st October 2014

#1 - A friend said it looks like he's doing namaz! It's actually blood on his hands. I realized I should have chosen better hand gestures to illustrate. Ah well!

#2 - Her face turned out much more elongated than I'd like, especially after inking! I think I got overexcited and tried to be too stylistic. Anywho, yay learning!! :P

 #3 - The only problem I had with this one is that deltoid line - it's so anatomically and visibly wrong! I decided not to edit it so I remember my carelessness.

Travelling sketches

13th Sept 2014

I've been travelling a lot this month and last. Many train journeys. These are just a few sketches from my journey to Goa. I wish I'd paid more attention to form and proportion, but I was drawing in the flow, more for myself. I thought it was hightime I update my blog regardless of how shitty the drawings have come out! :P Also gave some quick digital tones for depth. Enjoy!

This one had the side ladder in a screwed proportion! Dunno where my attention was.. Maybe I was just in a bit of a hurry :/

Lastly a snap from the journey! ;)

14th July 2014

23rd June 2014

Summer heat

20th May 2014

For a while I was really beginning to doubt myself when it comes to boarding. Just did a quickie based on my friend Shubi's facebook status. It's actually super hot everywhere in India, but I got the power of AC! Lemme know if it conveys properly. Criticism is most welcome.
Cheers and happy monsoons! (Yes, the first showers have cooled off my Goan land)
