Bring out your dead!!

 I've decided to make some new sketches over the last few days and have steadily grown surprised of how my skills have grown.

So here you are, my darlings!

My fave four pages of the last few days! <3

Yeah, I think I'll give me an A+ for effort. *nods*

Have my sketchbook

I've been neglecting you as of late, haven't I?

Please forgive me for this, I did have some work ahead of me! That and I just couldn't think of what to do.
So to make it up to you, I decided I'd share my sketchbook and "??? month story" revolving around the things I make and pass off as works of art.

As you may or may not know, I wanna be an animator when I grow up (or should I say when I get older, since my 18th birthday just past?)! Because of how great of a school it is, I really want to make it into Sheridan in a year or two, and to do so, I've been studying my art technique some.

I got this sketchbook earlier this year after my last one filled up and spent most of my time writing lyrics from David Bowie songs in the first three pages, but there are some sketches!

By this time, I had already heard about Sheridan and had spent a few months trying to life drawing and failing miserably at it (or at least translating it into my regular stuff).

After this, I found a couple blogs helping out Sheridan hopefuls (links in my notes), and found

pages with character design notes.

These Atlantis pictures

Belongs to Disney, of course. I'm nowhere near this cool.

Lead to this change in my sketches! It's not perfect, but it's working out a bit better (I think).

I decided to make some more doodles and even a lazy comic book sketch of myself as a shameless self insert in Doctor Who.

Afterwards, I finally managed to install my tablet onto my new computer and started to draw away on Sketchbook!

This are pretty much the only interesting bits for now, spare maybe my best friend's birthday present! It'll be done in the weeks to come, so I'll be making an update with more on that and other little doohikies I'm daring to call "side projects" to sound professional.

No seriously, they're just for fun. I have too much time on my hands at the moment.

With all the almighty love on the planet,
Nikola Strange

Hiya! I'm Nick. It's been a pleasure writing my thoughts out for you!
If you enjoyed what you read, you can find me on YouTube under the same name, and on Facebook on a page called "The Lives and Times of Young Adult Things."
Thanks for your time, and I hope you enjoyed this! :D

I am artist. . . .thing.

Sometimes I feel as though I'm cheating myself when I say "I'M AN ARTIST, LULZZ!!" and never post any art. Like people are judging and I have something to prove.

Realistically speaking, no one gives a shit.

But I do, so I'll be posting up some things I sorta still like.

I don't know if I can put up any of my AP porfolio up before turning it in, but to be honest it's all I've had time to do at the moment. I'd like to know if it's okay before putting anything up online, so for now have some old stuff! :D

It started with a bubble and turned into a face.
