I worked on some numbers for Super Motherload today! Oi, that was tedious work, but I think they look pretty sweet when animated and sound will really help sell the effect.

The last couple of times that I’ve gone to figure drawing the model has been late or a no-show, but it actually is a great time for the Wednesday night gang to get some practise drawing each other. It’s really been refreshing to draw clothes, textures, folds, and oddly shaped shadows. After a couple of years, drawing nude models gets to be a bit predictable and I end up spending less time than I should looking at the model and filling in too many gaps with what I think I know. Clothing or drapery of any sort forces me to refer to the model more and it lets me go nuts with mark making. I almost wish there were a few sessions a month that I could go to where the model is clothed. Anyway, this is Raymond. He’s good fun and seems to appreciate my sarcasm!

Figure drawing gouache attempt round 2!

Figure drawing gouache attempt round 2!

What a crazy week! I had a bunch of new followers so I did some detective work and found out that this post was making the rounds on tumblr! Thanks! It had a few pieces that I did back when I was in school that I hadn’t yet posted here so I thought I’d reblog.

Mostly I just wanted to direct some traffic to http://society6.com/scottdraws/Fur-Fashion_Print you know… just in case any of you want to buy that first image. Just sayin’. 

More personal work is on its way soon! Thanks again spectigular!

Had the wonderful opportunity to reconnect with an old team of amazing talent (re: birds) to pull together this short photo story.

After first attempts to shoot at the beach during an unexpected windstorm, we were able to put together alternate plans for this portrait session. Once again I’m reminded of the great things that can come out of everything not going according to plan at all and am incredibly thankful I had such a strong, creative and adaptive team behind me. The strength behind any shoot stems from the chemistry between the creative team and it certainly makes everything more fun, exciting and reminds you why you’re doing what you do. This one’s for the team, thanks friends

Here’s work from another one of my friends! Nick Wong has the most incredible ability to capture light and mood. This batch of photos is evidence of that.

I bought some gouache to play with at figure drawing! It’ll be a bit of a struggle for a little while as I get used to mixing colours again, but it’s a nice change to use a bit of a different part of my brain during these sessions. Colour is a bit of a beast, and when you only have 10 - 20 minutes to get both the drawing and some paint down it doesn’t leave too much time for “noodling”. This is the result of noodling. I’ll try to force myself to be a bit more economical in the next session. Check back here in a week to see if I’ve learned anything!

Sunday Best & other CG sketches

Mike Kerr, an instructor and inspiration of mine from ACAD, is now on tumblr! Show him some love!

Also while you’re at it have a look at his sketchbooks at his site wronghand.com. He has the best sketchbooks. You’ll be busting out your acrylics after having a look at these. Guaranteed.

Prints available! I’m trading prints in multiple sizes for donations towards my beer fund at Society6. It’s uncharted waters for me, but it seems like the demand is there, so I thought I’d give it a try. This image has made the rounds on tumblr multiple times which has been a pleasant surprise and really cool to watch… what is it about girls with animals? Is it the cat? I’d understand if it were the cat.  Buy it here!

This is my submission for the pin-up show which opened up a couple of days ago. Horse racing has traditionally been a bit of a men’s club (tiny men, that is) but, in the last 40 years or so, there have been a few really influential female jockeys to fight their way onto the track and compete with the boys.
