Maian's Pencil Drawings by the Truckload




Posted by maian

lul

I carry around a sketchbook everywhere I go in school, because I like to draw, and I'm super ADD. I can honestly say I listen better when I'm drawing something. >_> Trying to focus on the lesson alone puts me to sleep.

As a result, most of these drawings never leave their first stages as sketches, and many finer details are ignored. In pictures simply meant to entertain people, you'll find many poses are very tacky looking, and that proportions can be very off. This is because I don't spend time on drawings meant to entertain people. :)

Oh, and these are all photos of my art, because I have no scanner. Excuse the occasional low quality shot.

That, being said, here they are.

I had a bunch of hand drawings, but none of them were too entertaining or special. I just chose to take a picture of this one.

Eh, just quickly copied from a CG image. Nothing special.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures016.jpg]Dude with a gun[/url]
Somewhat inspired by Advance Wars: DoR art I saw. I was really heavy with the blending stump on this one. It made a good result, but also blurred out a lot, which I kind of regret.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures017.jpg]Kirbys Galore[/url]
Yeah, it's all the SSBB Kirby hats. CAN YOU NAME THEM ALL? Some of them are off due to me not have seen them when I did this.

Just a quickie in pen. Boredom.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures019.jpg]Dude with a sword[/url]
I still don't know about the pose, but I like it nonetheless. You'll find I draw him a lot. He's actually one of the characters I have in my head for a long story I'm writing, per se. We'll call him Sirus.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures020.jpg]Big Boss (Incomplete)[/url]
Just a super quick pen sketch. Never even came close to finishing, probably never will.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures021.jpg]Got bored, was going to draw Brawl roster[/url]
...Then, I got bored again.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures022.jpg]Morbid death scene[/url]
Eh, I like it. Still a work in progress. (See: girl's head)

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures023.jpg]Big Boss pen quickie[/url]
Meh. Like I said, quickie. Not really a good picture in my opinion.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures024.jpg]Sirus in red pen[/url]
Another quicky. It's okay. Meh. I don't really give much attention to pen drawings.

Inside Joke.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures026.jpg]Random Sirus[/url]
Style inspired by Days of Ruin art.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures027.jpg]Random girl[/url]
She looks kind of...weird, but whatever.

A quickie, but I like it.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures032.jpg]Big Boss/Frank Jaegar pen drawing[/url]
Never finished for some reason, but I like what's there so far.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures033.jpg]Close up face of some guy[/url]
I don't really like it. >_>

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures034.jpg]NINJA SITTING ON ROCK[/url]
Heh, the ninja. My friend has this comic that he draws, very basic drawings, but extremely hilarious. It has many, many fans. It's basically about an incredibly BAMF and super awesome ninja. I asked him what to draw one time, and he said a realistic, detailed version. I lol'd out of the results. It's obviously exaggerated.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures035.jpg]Ninja again[/url]

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures036.jpg]Tried drawing Young Link, MM version.[/url]
Didn't like, quit drawing it.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures037.jpg]An attempt at Twilight Princessified Young Link.[/url]
Got bored with it.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures038.jpg]Designs for two main characters.[/url]
I don't know what's going on with the camera angle in this picture. >_>

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures039.jpg]Three Sirus designs[/url]
Never finished. Eh.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures040.jpg]And, another Sirus pose[/url]
You're probably wondering why I like to draw him so much. I guess in a school environment, he's just the most "accessible". It's easy for me to be really diverse with him, without going over the top to onlookers. This is the first picture I extensively used the blending stump in after the gun guy, and I think it worked a lot better here.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures041.jpg]Sword and shield dude[/url]
Slightly inspired from Days of Ruin art.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures042.jpg]I was just working on the female form here. Never finished.[/url]

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures047.jpg]Leonidas[/url]
Someone told me to draw him from memory. It was easier than I thought.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures048.jpg]Was working on a basic shaded male/female form[/url]
Ignore tacky poses!

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures049.jpg]Someone told me to draw a "hawt girl" for him. This was the result. I didn't really care.[/url]

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures050.jpg]Meryl Silverburgh[/url]
Doesn't really look like her, but, meh

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures051.jpg]It speaks for itself.[/url]

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures055.jpg]Samus fighting a Space Pirate?[/url]
This, and most of my other Samus pictures were drawn when I was playing through MP3. You can barely see the pirate because I honestly had no idea what they looked like from memory.

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures057.jpg]Mrs. Wightman taking over the world in a super robot[/url]
She's my math teacher. We like drawing ridiculous drawings of her because he's this short sweet British lady who's completely the old lady british stereotype. She says "Jollygood".

[url=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/Art/ZachsPictures058.jpg]Samus' hidden super gun.[/url]
Let's see if I can name everything it's got: Front and back flamethrower, AK-47, Ammo Belt, rail gun, RPG, Gatling guns, Spidey Web Launcher, scope, a speaker that blasts High School Musical (Possibly the most effective weapon), and an R2 unit for good measure. SHOULD'VE BEEN FINAL SMASH BUT WHATEVER

I had to write an essay once. I wrote it about him. lols followed, so I drew him. Yes, I made it up right off of my head for the sake of the stupid essay.

Our super liberal, very opinionated government teacher. This picture is probably accurate to real life, if such a thing would happen.

The artist I chose to mimic was Ashley Wood, the artist who draws the MPO cutscenes. Very stylistic. If I had my own way, this would've turned out WAY different, but my art teacher wanted it his way. >_>

Eh, just quickly copied from a CG image. Nothing special.


Linked me to a site called Raiden. Stopped clicking right there.

Your new stuff is a ton better than some of the other stuff. Proof that PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE is the key to kicking *** at art.




Posted by Slade

Man, I looked at all those last night. Phew. A few in particular stuck out to me, but I have no clue which ones. Others reminded me of what I used to draw, so I'm kind of bummed I stopped because I can see what the next step would have been.

Miss Samus Hot Bamf cannot keep her feet properly placed. She needs leg braces. Stat!




Posted by maian

Most of the drawings that actually stand out (ie the blended ones), are the ones I actually spend time on. =/

I'd say 90% of these drawings were a result of boredom, and just a quick one-class effort, or probably half a class. On said drawings I spend a little bit of time on the details, but not much. Meaning, most of those drawings will look good at first glance, but then the feet, hands, proportions, etc will start to look pretty crappy if you actually take a look. The fact is is that I don't care. :cool:

But lately I've actually been drawing them with a result in mind, so I'm actually taking time to carefully sketch the skeleton sketch, go back and refine the lines, use a blending stump, etc. I've actually drawn some stuff in the last few days that I think is better than most of the stuff on this list. >_>

Oh, I think when I made the link, I typed in [ url=raiden ] Raiden [ /url ] on accident. That's my guess. >_>

I'll change it right now.

EDIT: Huh, looks like I just forgot to put the URL in there entirely. Whatever, it's up there now.
