AUTHOR RESEARCH

E.B. Hudspeth is the author of The Ressurectionist: The Lost Work of Dr. Spencer Black, a book about a scientist studying anatomy and creatures not of this world.

This book has always intrigued me as someone who has always been fond of the fantasy/horror genre. Books are generally a large inspiration and influence in my life, and The Resurrectionist falls into the category of artistic inspiration. The studies and anatomy drawings of the creatures in E.B. Hudpseth's book are the kinds of things I've been thinking about for this project especially. I thought of this book as I was researching the sheep bones.

I only have to do finish illustrating some details. And change some colors. And then this project is done ;; … and then this project is done.

To finalise this string of posts for this second project, I will be showcasing the final piece that was created.

There was a lot of editing for the assets since I had to do a lot of planning for where things were going to go, the texture I was going to apply and the effects I wanted to create since I was using all the tools available in Adobe Photoshop.

I created the frames in segments before putting them all together.

This is the first frame which focuses on the forest area, this segment is happening at evening as seen by the setting sun. The story is set during the winter season hence the snow and the main character is walking through the forest on route to their destination.

There was a lot of effects and texture I applied to the surroundings to try and create a more natural feel as well as better reflect the time of day. This is personally my most favourite panel to work on.

This is the second frame which focuses on the character climbing a mountain to get to the top, at this point is is late evening/dusk as seen by the sky. The character and the mountain they are climbing are seen as a black silhouette while the animals and mountains in the background are in focus.

This was a personal experimentation of having what is considered to be the background to be the main focus. I was told that I could have improved the silhouette by adding effects to it but I personally liked it the way it was.

Here is the final frame where the main character manages to reach their destination at the top of the mountain where they can watch the lights in the sky.

It was fun working with the lighting effect and textures, hopefully I will be able to experiment with this further in the future.

With these pieces created, I put them into onto a document to complete the whole three cell narrative/triptych.

As part of the requirements, I had to have the final piece printed which fortunately didn't take too long when it came to printing as I had limited time for how long I could stay at my college/university.

That's all for now.

If you have any questions don't be afraid to ask.

Some character exploration for a uni project

I don't typically draw like this, but the stylistic exaggeration was fun and it felt good to explore new ways to express characters, especially for a childrens' book project.

you'll get the urge as an artist or a writer to say out loud the things you're worried about "the proportions are off" "kind of out of character" "i'm not good at summaries" "didn't get as much detail as i wanted" "i made a mistake and here's how" and that's the self-conscious part of your brain telling you "it's bad and if you don't tell them you know it's bad then they'll think you're stupid" but you've got to ignore that little voice and pretend you think it's good or else that little voice is going to ruin your life

David Lynch's Weather Report 3/6/21, 4/10/21, 2/20/22... among others! It was a very recurring sentiment. He wanted everyone to have good luck and fun with our projects.

Reached out to a biologist to request some info about an extinct species of freshwater shrimp and the email she sent in response was not only lovely and helpful but also kind of poetry to me? People who study invertebrates are actually the most hopeful and compassionate scientists that we have.

From the previous post, I will be showing the process for the third and final print experimentation which was Risograph Printing.

As of that point in time, I had already gathered experience with this printing method so, like the Linocut Printing, this was a way to work upon skills I already had.

In terms of designs, I was using these concepts for the prints as I was going to create 4 designs at A5 size.

Since I needed separated layers to can into the Risograph Printer, I made digital refinements in Adobe Illustrator before being edited together in Adobe Photoshop and printed to use.

With the print references, I went onto creating the prints by having the Risograph Printer scan each layer and print the specific colour I had in the machine. I had two sets of Risograph Prints which two different colour combinations.

From last year, I was able to use Risograph Printing a lot so I was able to improve my skills and understanding further with this printing method. Compared to the previous two printing methods, this is what I consider as more of my go-to to use.

That's all for now.
