John's original drawing
My study. I feel a little weird about the left foot in particular.

This is a Study Blog
This blog is devoted to STUDIES of the traditional cartoon. Most ideas on here are not mine (characters, poses, etc.)-- this is a blog about learning new things about classic cartooning. While I am proud of my work posted here, I can't take credit for the ideas.
I owe a lot to my mentor, John K. He is a great teacher, and many of these studies also use his drawings as a starting point.

If you donate more than $5, make sure I get your address a short list of your favorite cartoon characters!
I think you did a great job. I'm very impressed with all of your drawings. How much time do you devote to study's?
ReplyDeletealso do you ever compare your study's to the originals in photoshop?
Less than I'd like!! Ideally I'd spend 2-3 hours a day studying, but because this is my last semester of getting-a-piece-of-paper school, and I work part-time, it ends up being about an hour a day on a normal school-day. I'm embarrassed that it isn't more. I'm doing my best to change it back to what I used to be able to do!
ReplyDeleteI do compare my originals in Photoshop. What I like to do is do the most basic of the construction and compare that in Photoshop before I start going into more detail. That way I don't spend lots of time on a study that has really big basic errors. Usually I compare again once I have the details down, but I didn't in this one because-- oh, jeeze, I've gotta get to bed!! Good night.
