Weekly Character Design #4 -Whatchu Talm'bout?!

Here's my latest piece for the Weekly Character Design Challenge.

Raymond Jenkins was not a particularly talented child actor, but because he had a condition that caused him to look like a small child into his teens, he eventually landed a starring role on the hit sitcom "Havin' Thangs" at 14 years old. Unfortunately, once the show's 10 year run was over, there was no work for this little man with the famous child's face. -->

Good Morning! This week's been pretty hectic (Marley's getting a head start on those 'terrible twos'), so I just got to the WCD challenge this morning.

Weekly Character Design #3---> Inspired by Mother Badu & Weezy

Tried something a little different for the Weekly Character Design.
this joint was heavily inspired by the Erykah Badu song  Jump Up in the Air (and Stay There)
The character is called Amazing Grace, and she is a pre-civil war slave who spontaneously transported herself through time, gaining access to cosmic powers that she uses to fight against modern day slavery and injustice.
hope you like her... thanks for stopping by, and have a nice day (i know you want to...)

Weekly Character Design #3 ---> I guess y'all love the ladies!

this week, the voters came out hard for the lone female drawing! I guess you guys REALLY want to see me draw the young lady! Fine by me... I'll have a full body piece for you on Friday or Saturday.
this joint was heavily inspired by the Erykah Badu song Jump Up in the Air (and Stay There) as I suspect the final piece will be too...
thanks for stopping by!

I didn't have time to do full turn-around this week kiddos! but here's my drawing for the Weekly Character Design. I sketched him out on some scratch paper, and finished it in photoshop. I really like this character, and have some ideas for a comic, so we'll see more of him eventually! gotta go to bed now...

Weekly Character Design Challenge

i just started participating in a Weekly Character Design challenge on deviant art to help sharpen/develop my character design skills.hopefully, this will help me get faster and better at designing characters. I get a fair amount of work designing or fleshing out characters, so I'm working on my design instincts.

 

the way the challenge works, the guy who's running it draws 5 random shapes on Monday, then everyone  posts drawings they made from the shapes on Tuesday. then you pick one of the headshots and submit a full body drawing on Thursday, then color turn arounds on Friday. I just started on Wednesday, so I skipped the full body and went straight to the color turnarounds. for the record, I did all the drawing and coloring in Photoshop. see ya later!

holla!
