Betsy, new design

This is my new design for Betsy.

AHHHH!

Oh my gosh, you guys!
I have been MIA for quite awhile now. I sort of shut down after I finished my thesis film. lol Speaking of which, if you have not had the pleasure of seeing it, check it out on my youtube page here:

I won't post it on here because the uploader thingy is SUPER slow. SO! just please check it out on my youtube! :)

In other news, I have sort of stopped art and just focused on working/repairing my social life after having absolutely no life for 3 and half years. lol
But now that I am over it, I have decided to try and pursue making a web series involving my dog characters that I love so dearly. SO! That being said, my first upload here is not going to be too exciting. This is my re-design for my main character, Greta. Now, I really REALLY loved my design for Dumpling in my thesis. So I decided to make Greta a sort of Dumpling hybrid. As you can see, they are very similar now. It is pretty much Dumpling with jeans on....and a little bit of a different body type. She won't be quite as squat as before. But anywhoo! Check it out. And I promise, more designs are on the way!!!!

Aesthetic Test

Here is an example of how my film will look when all is said and done!

I have changed Dumpling's colors a bit. Apparently, some people have trouble reading her as a pug dog. It was suggested that I play with the color of her muzzle and ears. what do you think? More readable this way???

Thesis 1

I have started my senior thesis!

You will be learning more about it as I keep posting. But consider my character designs:







My main character, Dumpling.




The boyfriend design. He is nameless still! Any ideas?

Critique is encouraged!!! Keep watching.

More animation! More!

Some more of my past animation:




This is my pride and joy!! This is a paper cut out stop motion animation I made. Definitely one of my favorites.



Just a little something I made while I was making an illustration.

This completes everything that I want to post from my Sophomore year!
