Character Design: Bamboo!

So as you may have understood, Character Design is 
a class that I have this semester.



So I wanted to share some of the stuff I've
and will be working on throughout this class.


First of all, and introduction to my character!
Her name is Bamboo and is Chihuahua Canine girl.

Bamboo is a canine girl who thinks she's kind of a hero, but not really. She's silly, cute and sporty, with a great deal of playfulness and charm.  
She's 15 and loves to make friends.


The first thing we did for homework was to, explain who our character is.
So we got a template, and filled in her traits of all sorts ;)

 This was the first drawing hand-in, 12 thumbnails of how
Bamboo may look like.


The following are just exercises and sketches by my self.
Trying a full body shoot, and a side view of her head. Also
pointing down stuff I would like her to have.


Testing Face and eyes.
 But also hair, her tail and body type.


More faces, ears and eyes.


The next part has more of a personal aspect,
But I would love to have Bamboo mainly as a dog,
which I could use in small comic strips etc.
But this is just an idea jet.


Sketching and testing how to draw a chihuahua xP


I did after a while find kind of a style to try out, 
and then sketched some expressions and actions.
The reason that some are post-it notes, are because 
I simply doodled them in class,
without my sketchbook :P


So that was all for today, I hope you are having a great Monday,
and I will write to you later :D

Hi everyone! :3
I hope you have a lovely Sunday,
and this was my week :)

Monday:
I was at the dentist in Trondheim, and went to Steinkjer
after that. Just wore a super casual outfit, so didn't take any picture.
I spent the hole afternoon and evening, drawing a new thumbnail,
and made a video ending.
I also made a Sims 4 video, which I hope you have watched :P

I didn't do much other than that during the evening ether.
Tuesdays outfit was this:


Jumper: Cubus

Venture cup project we have -.-
During that evening I was working on the project but also drawing :D

Pants: H&M

Thursday:
Today we spent 6 hours at school drawing and 
learning about anatomy.
I love the Character design classes, but they are sure 
heavy too :P
When I got home, I started on the homework, 
but also made my first submission for Sketch Dailies :P

 Jumper: H&M
Shirt: BikBok
Skirt: H&M

Friday:
Finally it was friday, and I came early to school, 
to do some drawing, project work and GameLab.
In Sound Production class I had to talk in a microphone 
in front of the hole class to test the range,
and I made my teacher play 
Nightsong from World of Warcraft Cataclysm!
Best song ever <3

When I got back in Trondheim, I spent my evening 
doing school work, but it was drawing, so I had a good time :D

Saturday:
Yesterday I went downtown to pick-up some stuff 
which I got really disappointed about, but I can't really tell why jet.
The rest of the day I was drawing again and watching Youtube.
Dodgers series of Hatoful Boyfriend is just the best! xP


Sunday:
Today I was supposed to do this, so I guess that's check, 
work with some project work (almost check),
and the just chill, draw and watch youtube.

I think this week has been pretty nice, and I love the fact that
I have been so inspired to draw the past days (yes I will share something soon!)
and because of that haven't played a single game since Monday o_O :P

So then I see you again later guys!

Leibster Award!

So last week I got nominated for this Liebster award! 
I have been nominated for this some time before, but that is 
some years ago now :P

That girl that kindly enough nominated me is Fashion Gets Fierce 
so please check out her blog :D

So the first thing I have to do is tell you guys

  11 facts about myself :D

1. I'm a lovely mix between an extrovert and super introvert :P

2. I've grown up with several dogs, but also had two cats.

3. I LOVE making checklist.

4. My favorite games are; The Sims and World of Warcraft.

5. I play MANY Facebook games, and figured
that it actually helps me with the game dev. part of school.

6. I've been blogging all through my teens, starting mainly in 2008,
but started getting into the way of blogging already in 2006/07.

7. When I was a kid, I could get so concentrated on a project,
so the time just flew by. An example is that I could start playing a CD, the drawing, and suddenly I could hear the last song on the CD without realizing the other songs past.

8. My favorite anime genres is Slice of life, preferably with no continuing story. 
Because then I can watch an anime while playing games, drawing or etc. 
without missing out on important stuff story wise :P

9. Me and Laze has been together for 4 years <3

10. I rent an apartment with 3 other girls,
at the place where our college is, but as you know, 
I go for 2 hour drive to visit my boyfriend or family almost every weekend.

11. I would love to be an illustrator when "I grow up", 
but I'm really insecure about my talent especially compared to my age.
(means that I wish I practiced more when I was younger)

Questions from Fashion Gets Fierce:
1.Why did you start a blog?
I started my first real blog, because I moved, switched school, 
and still wanted to tell my friends at the old place, about my everyday life.

2.What blogger inspires you the most?
This is quite difficult since I sometimes reads allot of blogs, and sometimes none at all.
When I got into Lolita it was Zeruda in 2010, but it has also been
Xiaxue, Mewkid and many more. I have no current favorite ;)

3.Did you ever felt bored about the blog? why?
Often! Mostly because I feel uninspired and writing entries 
and taking photos for it, becomes a job.

4.Tell me a little about yourself, what do you like to do, what you don't like, etc.
5.What's your biggest dream?
I love playing games, draw, listen to music and watch movies.
I do not like being alone too much, but at the same, I don't like being with lots of people for too long ether. I'm not a fan of exercise and I hate being late.
My biggest dream is to live happily with my boyfriend in a decent sized house or apartment, with a chihuahua, and my life is full of art and creativity.

6.Do you like to read? If yes, what type of books?
Sometimes, but it's been less the past years. 
My all time favorites of books is the Animorph series,
and nowadays I read the W.I.T.C.H. comics ;)

7.What's your biggest fear?
That would be loosing some of my dear ones,
but also being part of a car crash while driving myself.

8.What do you think you could do to make your blog even better?
Being more consistent, spend more time on high quality entries,
and be more motivated.

9.What do you hate most in a person?
It has to be when they are extremely self-centered, thinks they are better than others,
or takes credit of others work or sayings.

10.What's your favorite destination for holidays?
I haven't traveled much, and me and Laze often has a great time just being at home.
But my mothers cabin, is something I appreciate more and more.
I also love road trips, so I'm content as long as I can get a few hours trip included.

As in single food it's tomato.
As in a meal i think boiled/cooked white fish.
