memory sketch and some doodles.

Ill skip the diary this time and just keep trying to update once a week. First drawing is a memory sketch and the rest are small doodles from work done with a marker. The last two drawings are sketches I will eventually color and post on my deviant account. Davidreyes.deviantart.com

Drawings between work drawings.

Im just trying hard to remain consistent on posting weekly. All of these are from work. The first five are from walk by's from people inside the park. Ive been trying to just really generalize the people I see. I usually look at them for a sec and try to rememeber what I can and make up the rest. One thing that Ive been trying to stick by when coloring is not to spend more time than it actually took me to draw the drawing which is maybe a about a minute or two but since Im slow at coloring and I dont have a fancy wacom tablet like everybody else its been taking me about 10 -15 minutes to color these. Oh yeah and there were also drawn with markets.

The last thing on here are a few profiles that I did at work. Hopefully ill be able to buy a digital camera before the end of the summer so I can post actual inpark drawings of guest. The good thing is that I feel that Im lossening up again(with my actuall park sketches that I sell). At the beggining of the season I had a my boss watch me like a hawk criticizing me at every opportunity about how goofy my drawings are and that I need to draw more conservative and make the customer happy. At the beggining of the season I was actually drawing people really safe and keeping it cute and that was still too edgy for him. I was really frustated because I was forced to practice my mediocre sketch and it really reflected on this blog for a bit. But now it seems that he has backed off and Ive been feeling like im lossening up alot more again. Maybe it was working with my old seaworld buddy bill drastal. I promise myself to get alot loser and fucken draw real cartoons none of this quick wannabee watered down portraitures. Well maybe Ill draw something more realistic in the future just to prove to myself that I can.

Ill try to post in my deviant account soon. In the meantime theres a little sketch before this post.

Concept

Heres a concept for a character that I did at work a few months ago and re-hatched while looking through all my junk. My awesome boss was cool enough to almost throw away the original marker drawing that I did at work. The reason I didn't post the original was because it was too big to scan. So I ended up drawing it again. The original version was better according to my brother since it looked more like was deteriorating. When he said that it made me remember that, that was the direction i was actually going for. The mistake that I made when redrawing it was that I was trying to make it a cleaner and easier to read, and in the process made it more healthy looking like warrior hog type creature. I want this character in the end to convey a feeling that it has already been in the battle field and that it was one of the last survivors left somewhere in the middle of a endless desert, slowly decomposing while it still remained concious and still walking and fighting to remain alive. Ill post the finished version at davidreyes.deviantart.com

Some people i saw at work

These were all done at work with a markette at work. Then a couple of them were quickly colored in photoshop. Also Im posting on Deviantart under davidreyes.deviantart.com

Work doodles

How can I start this off ? part of universal burned down, our best airbrush location is sidelined in the darkness of citywalk, gas is 5 fucken dollars a gallon !!!!!!thus affecting tourism at Universal. The most serious relationship I have with a girl right now is with Sallie mae. The way things are working out it may seem that we might be together for the rest of our lifes. Thats not considering the money thats being garnished from my paychecks to pay off my huge dmv fines to my license unsuspended. That along with being jumped, going to a funeral and having my brother get bitten by fucken dog. Despite this and many other things its incredible how I can have the mental ability to be so optimistic about the future.

So anyway heres a few work doodles from the abundance of crap that I ve drawn at work during our down time. I have alot more stuff i wanted to post but since I still don't have a camera Ill have to save those for a later date. These were drawn or large paper so I had to isolate each scan and then compile them together on one page. They were drawn with the markettes (markers) from work and theres one I decided to quickly color, just now in photoshop, just for the hell of it. The color drawing is a quick memory sketch that I did of an employee that walked by. Although these aren't great drawings I feel Ive loosen up alot since last year when I first started this blog and my speed on these are so much faster about 30sec to 1 min.

I just remembered this post was more about letting you guys know that Im posting on Deviant art now, I will continue posting on here but Ill use my deviant account to post more finished drawings and in the future when i get my harddrive replaced and have maya on my computer again ill go back to posting 3d stuff as well. So heres the site http://www.davidreyes.deviantart.com/

Right now I started off by posting a finished turn around of an old character. More will follow . ohyeah LAST PIC IS FROM MY CELL PHONE ON DAY OF UNIVERSAL FIRE.

Just some leftover poop

I was going to post alot of these along time ago but my scanner was broken so know I Just grabbed a bunch of them and threw them together. There still a bunch letover but I think this is enough crap. It all looks the same anyway. I like it looking messy and unfinished.

More in park demos.

All that time at Seaworld and im still drawing elephants for dolphins. Honestly I can really draw dolphins I just get tired of drawing the cute ones.
