Pocketful of Ink

This is what I did during the in class critique today. I found out I had a bunch of coloured ball point pens in the front pocket of my bag, that dad had given me and I wanted to plaaaay.

I had this idea in my mind for a while, I wanted to draw a decent picture of Suka and Dalan as I haven't yet.

I'll let you go and think about what's happening as it's a bit much to explain when I'm sleepy and tired!

But she's not pregnant. For all you assholes out there.

I've changed Dalans name, yet again, and now it's just Dalan. However, he hates the D on it, so tries to make sure everybody knows his name is Alan, or at the very least calls him Alan.

I changed up his face shape a bit, and made it more angular and younger looking, and rounded his nose a bit. Other than that, his character design is exactly the same, and I think I'm happy with this one. In fact, I think I can stick with it and finally start to draw pictures of him just for fun! Joy of joys.

Woke up at my usual 7 this morning, left for class at 7:30, walked to school, walked into class ten minutes early, only to discover... Class was canceled today! Well that's just brilliant. So Leah and I walked back home, gave our room mates a good morning greeting, watched about an hour of Avatar, I had a shower, and then I sat down to work on my 2D design, because I didn't know if it was due at the start of class or not.

I'm going to assume from now on everything is due at the start of class.

I was starving by the time I was almost finished, so I didn't want to get up and leave until I had finished gluing down the four patterns. When I finally glued the last in place (with a lot of swearing and pulling free of rubber cemented squares) I trooped downstairs to make myself lunch. Leah was already in the kitchen, making toast, and I was like, "So Leah, wanna watch some more Avatar?" and she gave me a really confused look and countered with the question "When?" I assumed I still had plenty of time left, so: "After I make my lunch?"
"Don't you have class?"
"Uh... I don't know, what time does my class start again?"
"One!"
"OH! Oh well.. well shit then..."

Turns out I'd gotten so buried in my homework I blew my entire four hour break, and it was quarter after twelve, and I had to leave to walk to school in about fifteen minutes. My nice relaxing well earned lunch turned into hasty toast and jam that was wolfed down and followed by a chugged cup of juice and a twenty minute walk to class.

Suffice to say I don't feel too hot right now.

Other than that, a new assignment I can try to figure out how to cheat on! We have to take words and make them say something. Yes, that sounds stupid, uhm.. They have to represent something, typography where the letters are acting as pictures. Only without pictures or coloured font.

I'm playing with the words "Interesting Texture" and "Nervous Habit" right now.

Weeee, I need a nap! 3:59
