Mini crawl

Did my own mini sketch crawl today round Guildford this afternoon :-) It was a bit chilly!

SketchCrawl

Iain and I joined the SketchCrawl this weekend. We went round a couple of museums, it being too cold to draw outside. It was really good. It's been a long time since I've sketched! I was trying to copy some sketching styles I'd seen from other peoples blog, but it didn't really work, this is pretty much just how I sketch! It's going to take some practice. Good to have made a start though.

Update

This is the matte painting so far. I've blocked in all the main elements and roughly colour matched stuff. Now I need to work into more detail and correct the areas where colour and lighting aren't working and try to get the scene working as a whole as well as all the individual elements. At this stage I think it could look a lot worse! So, I'm pretty happy with how it's progressing so far.
