Monthly Report Cards: November 2014 Goals

What? It's November? These past two months have flown by, goodness gracious!
On to my goals for this month.

Document my trip to Germany 
I read an article about documenting your train journey with photographs. They had some really neat ideas that I'm excited to try out.

Film another music video
Quinne and I already have another song in mind. We just have to get it done :)


Take a break from writing
I'm running out of ideas, time to take a break and recharge.

Draw 
 I haven't been doing this much. Plus I just of a Deviant art account. Yay for extra motivation!


You can read Johanna's here (well if she does one that is. hint hint ;) )

Steampunk Legolas

Long version or the short version?

Long version:
Johanna made me read Behemoth by Scott Westerfeld (neglecting to mention that it's book 2 in a trilogy) So I read it, and it was World War I, only it was steampunk, and they were in Istanbul, and the book was illustrated by Keith Thompson and I loved it.
So then I felt like trying to draw steampunk, and instead I just sat at the computer and drooled over Mr. Thompson's art. And then Johanna said we should watch the extended Fellowship of the Ring, and I was like "no I gotta draw steampunk" so then she's suggested  that we draw LOTR characters as steampunk people. And of course I agreed, so while Merry was breaking things and Frodo was being stabbed I drew this:

Short version:
I drew steampunk Legolas:

 (Bad scan, soorrryyyy)

And I liked it, and Johanna liked it but she said I should try it again.

So then today I drew this: (it was really hard not to Google "steampunk Legolas" but I didn't because I wanted it to come out of my own head)

 Which I like.

That's it folks, the story of how I drew steampunk Legolas. Exciting no? No.

Captain Frozen

I send Johanna this picture. And then she said Kristoff as the Falcon! And I was like oh yes.
So this happened.

Booyakasha.

Kristoff as the Falcon.

Annnd then this sort of happened:

 Captain Anna

So of course I had to draw Elsa as the Winter Soldier

 

And to complete the set I drew Hans as Brock Rumlow (that Hydra hit man dude).

Which seems to be a mistake, Has doesn't really look like Hans....

But it was fun anyways (:

Just a Few Drawings

 Hello again!
Thought I'd post some drawings. Maybe I'll make this a regular thing.

 Princess Anna.

 I found a tutorial for her head a shoulders, but I drew the rest.
(Graphite pencil)

 Used a picture reference. 

Not 100% pleased with Anna's face, 

but there is only so much I can do about it now :P
(Water colour and permanent marker)

Legolas selfie
(Quinne I totally stole your pose)

I was inspired by this.

Drawing

Yesterday Johanna, Sam and I got together and searched drawing tutorials on YouTube. It was fun because we plugged Johanna's computer into the TV so it was BIG. These are my best drawings:

 Purple Minion - Despicable Me 2

(Thrilled how it worked out. Awesome right?)

 Sandy - Rise of the Guardians
(Yay!)

 Batman!!

(drawing muscles are harder than you might think...)

Kyoya - Beyblade

(surprised that it actually looks like him)
