Excitement!



Heres the illustration that got into Eye Candy. I got my books yesterday, and not only are they HUGE, but they're gorgeous and packed full of amazing people. Steven Gordon, Kei Acedera, Bill Presing, Jose Luis Agreda, and Andrew Wilson are in there so you KNOW its gotta be gorgeous work. Thanks so much to Alberto for making it happen! Go out and buy a copy, you'll be happy to bring 'em home.

I've been going through both books this weekend and got inspiried to draw some ladies. But then 'some' turned into 'one' and then I colored it.


The end!

Hi Aisleen ! I really really love your drawings and character designs!
Actually i just got in an animation school and i'm starting to invent characters, and i know it aint easy to make such good work! Keep it up! ;)
Oh by the way, the blue pencil you use to sketch... is it a special pencil or something? or just a normal blue colour pencil. Thanks!!

Hey Adameth! Thanks so much for commenting, glad you like my work.

The blue pencil is just a prismacolor colored pencil called 'true blue.' BUT Im trying to get out of using it. It gets dark too quickly. Try using a 'col-erase' blue pencil, its used in the industry and is easy to erase.

Its great ot hear you're in an animation school, good luck everything!
