Pencils/Ink/Red pen/white color pencil on brown paper

a project i had to do for college. The task was to make "miniature" drawings. So each one of these is only 2 X 3 inches which makes it kinda hard to add in very fine detail (especially with the crappy black pen i was using to ink) ... Its all mayfair-ed and bond-ed and mounted on illustration board if anyone cares (hahah)

i threw it into protraits cuz they are kinda concepts/portraits of this little project i've been working on...its kinda "what if hip hop wasn't a human thing?...what if it was robot trend/culture?"

so yeah pretty much its a small comics based on 7 bots and thier lives. i haven't fleshed it out that much (they don't even have names yet....so its currently : MC bot, Graff bot, B-bot etc ... the working name is Mekanikal) but they are going to look like they were designed for what they are into...for example MC bot will have jacks in his head to plug the mic into ... and a gun for a head (inspired by abeck) cuz he "spits bullets on tha mic" ... Graff bot will have a backpacklike section to his body that dispenses cans like grenades/ammo and his face looks like a gasmask (think raiden's mask from the very beginning of MSG2) ....

its not all just hip hop tho, its kinda all the shit im into thrown all together...so you'll see car culture,parkour and martial arts thrown in here and there (Car-bot?, Ninja-bot? ... hahah) ............either way if you got some sketches/concepts , lemme know...this isn't like a huge project unless i get a wicked response so this'll continue for a while here and there

oh yeah, the 3 mechs pictured here (from left to right):
Parkour bot (rockin' MDRV700DJs~!), Emcee bot (version 2.0) and Graff bot (his face is blank cuz he paints on it all the time... so his face changes from day to day)

C&C always welcome

heh, you're applying to sheridan? what for? illustration? animation? those are going to be my two guesses :)
i'm going to durham for animation... i would go to sheridan but i can't afford it :( and i don't want to spend hours and hours a day on a bus to go to oakville. nice work :)
:iconfirefromheaven:
im in first year right now but it was nuts, it took me like 2 hours on the bus everyday (thats only one way)...so i wasted a good 5 hours everyday just on travel (4 hours on the bus and about an hour waiting for it)

but then i got a temporary place (rez) so its not so bad now, the level of art here is insane so its worth staying here ... but if i didnt go home on the weekends id die... its boring in oakville ... u cannot imagine how boring it is

well congrats on getting past the first part with all the insane bus riding. that's exactly the reason why i didn't go to sheridan or seneca. that plus, i'm poor and can't afford res.

oakville is probably just a little bit more boring than where i live, whitby.
boring towns are the worst :( they just suck the life out of you.

good luck :)
