Would Rather Be Travelling

Doodle Often---#4 "...hello."

Honestly, I'm not quite sure. But he's certainly friendly, yes?

Good day to you, dear guests. How are you faring?

Doodle Often---the 3rd. "Gonna Fly Now (or Robot Boxer)"

After watching Real Steel, I got to scribbling, and after a time I looked down and thought, "hey, as far as doodles go this isn't half bad."

This is the product.


Yep.



And I guess I have a soft spot for the little music-loving, boxer 'bot, in a similar way as I had towards the movie and it's characters.

So... yeah, this is kind of what I do. 

Movie Poster

 Okay, okay, one more and I'm good!

I hope I don't get burned, seeing as this is a viral movie poster (and I most certainly own nothing) but I found this movie poster (here) and thought it was cool, so hey, you know...?

  

All in all, the design of this robot is very cool. I especially appreciated the segments in his amour; they allow a large amount of movement, and keep him lighter (which can allow for better speed), but the spaces in between are too small to allow the opponent robot any real advantage. The proportions are atheistically pleasing while still retaining a dangerous, realistic look. Artistically speaking, the designs is deceptively simple (for a humanoid build), but convincingly appears a state of the art, complex and deadly machine.

I guess that's really why I loved the movie. Hugh Jackman, the kid, and the fight scenes aside (okay, not completely aside), it's really dialed in to my love of robots, hearkening to a sci-fi-obsessed 12-year-old sketching robot designs on computer paper, dreaming of the day when she would build and possess a ‘bot of her own. I’m not sure what it means, this cinematic celebration of my much younger, more certain self.

But I’m pretty sure it’s why I posted this picture, thinking it was worthy to share with the world.

Hey, why not?

Robots (Again.)

I actually liked this video better from Real Steel, so I decided to post it. The fight between Atom and twin Cities was sweet!

Yeah, i know I'm late, but this is what I do; share about movies I liked. No matter how mindless the movie (well, most of the time...I do have my limits; and this one wasn't that mindless either), they tend to inspire me and make me think. And I just saw it, so hey, whatever, right?

Yeah...

Doodle Often---the 2nd. "To Owl City"

My second doodle. Yes.
This one turned out better; it seems as though the scanner likes pen much better than pencil.

Hoo...

Aside from God, of course, this one is dedicated to Owl City. I received his All Things Bright and Beautiful CD for Christmas this year, and listned to it while I sketched this. Definetly one of the best gifts I recveived this year. We love you Owl City!

Aside from that, this is a perfectly "normal" and (IMNSHO) adorable cartoon owl.

Yes.

Once again, Happy New Year everyone! :)

God Bless!
