Miaomiao



Miaomiao teaches little kids and toddlers a few words in chinese.
It is a series by Mark Animation. Each episode is 2 minutes long.
The first season was recently released in Kidobi's website! 
Click on the image to see :)

I helped out with some animation, some modeling, some texturing and some designs for the project. 
It was a lot of fun working on it!

Toons on Tap: Adventure Time!


The best-ever life drawing session in town, 
Toons On Tap (designed for animators <3 nbsp="" p="">
held an "Adventure Time" session last time I was there. 

This were LOADS of fun to doodle C:

 












The following are quickies: 30 second poses





The model was awesome posing as Fiona, 
amazing poses!
the copyrights belong to Cartoon Network 
and Adventure Time (NOT ME!) 
and I am really thankful to the Toons On Tap superteam 
Laurie, Jeremy, and Jeffrey 
for having this theme :3

PS. I'm testing a label to watermark my artwork...
I think this is not a winner just yet :P
I'll be more playful with the next test!

Tutti-Frutti


I took a pink and a white bottles of acrylic paint and rushed to the cashier.
The store was about to close.
The pink one was labeled "Tutti-Frutti" (om-nom-noms, right?)
I used to avoid this colour as much as I could, but it looks very inviting now.

I made a painting with them on a little canvas. 
I used a photo I found online, just to practice.
I'll post it later, with its reference.

I also used the pink paint for the last Toons on Tap session.
Here's the outcome of that session with the tutti-frutti acrylic.
The theme was 007. These are between 2 and 10 minute long poses.


The pink panther theme started playing on the background while I drew this one.






I really need a lot more practice!
Looking for interesting things to do and learn from,
Richard suggested I tried painting silhouettes and volumes a while ago.
Just the paint and a brush.
I hadn't done it for some time, so I tried it again.
(In the end I couldn't help but throw in some black lines, though)
Thanks to Richard for the tip!

And if you ever wanna try it, you should! It's fun :)

Toons on Tap: Paris Romance

Toons on Tap:
-Is an event that runs every couple tuesdays where you can life draw models in different costumes, and have a couple drinks while you do so because it happens at the karaoke room of a bar. Every session there's a different theme, and based on it, the costumes and music for the event are chosen. I've been going for some weeks now and always enjoy it a lot. It's super inspiring!! and I would recommend anyone who likes to draw to join!! :3

Here are some of the drawings that I did on the last session. I like how this ones turned out, so I thought I'd share them :)

The theme last session was "Paris Romance". The models were Bianca Boom Boom and El Toro and they did great dynamic and emotive poses.

Hope you like them,
-Gina

Silhouettes





I started experimenting with shadow drawings by suggestion of a dear friend.
Thanks for all the inspiration Richard!

I may go do some real life-drawing this week,
 but in the meantime I used this lovely website here:
