Weekly Report 2013-11-25

This report came out behind schedule, sorry for that! Short story is that I became so tired after handing in my homework for the week that I forgot to write it. Anyway, enough with the delays!
 
At the start of the week we were introduced to the methods of perspective involving visual guidelines in the form of grids. A repetitive and tedious endeavour to be frank, but the result is a most useful tool to help you with keeping any object […]

Perspective week

Hellu there!
This week we went through perspective and space. I’ve learned techniques for making different shapes in planes without losing the ratio of the shape. The toughest one to understand was the ellipse, and actually, I still don’t really get it and draw them most on feeling. (I have found some YouTube tutorials of drawing ellipses that I shall check out this weekend thou, to settle this once and for all, hehe)
Other than those murdering ellipses, perspective is something I […]

Quick update and thoughts

What kind of airplane, what kind of car etc. At one point during my drawing of the airplane, I was trying to pinpoint the middle of the airplane “cylinder” but couldn’t remember how to do it, eventually I solved the problem though. 
It feels like the perspective lectures came right on time since […]

Day 6 -No99, Maiasmokk, Christmas Market, Olde Hansa, Kompressor, Shopping Mall, Airport and My House

Philip and I went to the bicycle party and I hoped that more people from the workshop would come but it was only two others that showed up… It was a bit boring but it was good to go out at least one night because it was our last night. The DJ was awful… There were bicycles where people could challenge each other and compete, on the top floor there was table tennis going on. The building was quite nice […]
