Snowskooler's T-Shirt Designs


These are 2 little T-shirt designs I did out of the kindness of my heart for some snowskool chums as they saw my work and wanted a taste.

Go Go Powder Rangers


A little illustration I have done that is an adaptation of the Power Rangers logo.  It is a parody on the logo using it to represent a group of us in Banff doing our instructor course, who are committed to snowboarding/skiing!  Up there everyday with out fail for lessons and even on our day off we make sure we all attend Sunday Skool.  We have aptly named our selfs the Powder Rangers/The Hardcore Crew and in celebration of this fantastic group of people I decided to design us some T-Shirts.

Conclusion

Well hi there.  Unfortunately this is all coming to an end.  I have found this whole process of blogging extremely helpful.  I no way has it been a burden on my mind as something more that I have to do.  This blog has helped me keep up to date with my work, it allows me to view everything from a distance and to keep to my goals.  It is very easy to go off on a tangent or forget what you are aiming for but when constantly being reminded of what you have already done, who you have looked at and so on it keeps everything in perfect perspective.  As for the F.M.P i feel so far it has gone extremely well!   I'm really pleased with the work I have done and I really think that this blog has played a large part in achieving this.  Unfortunately as the hand in for this blog is 2 weeks ahead of the F.M.P hand in there are a few things that you will have to wait till the show to see but it can be a nice surprise.  My time management is usual something i would say could improve when i write a conclusion on most of my projects, however I think that not so much for this one.  I'm really pleased with the way everything worked out and hopefully my hard work, good communication and a little bit of luck will pay off.  In this project I have explored new techniques and settled on some good ones.  In the previous project I felt that I found my style, which i had been looking for, for a while.  In this project i felt i really settled into my style and developed it.  If nothing else i think i have come away from this course with a lot more skill and confidence than I went in with.  It is sad to see the course ending but i feel i have achieved what i wanted from it.  This project especially has been the highlight of my 3 years on the course because of my improvement and my devotion to it during the project.  I hope you enjoyed my blog and I hope you like my finals.  And thanks for taking the time to read all this.

Presentation of Finals

Thought I would just quickly add that this is how I will be presenting my final images.  In A2 white ikea frames.  I will also be using the raising technique that Pete showed us using foam board to lift the prints away from the back ground

Video Diary on youtube

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFS__gbnFl8&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL

As the videos have been tempremental at time I have put them all on youtube incase they start playing up, you can find all my video diaries here.  just click above the video where it says 27 videos. and you can view them all there.  Enjoy

Final Video Diary (A recap or the entire project, Very imporant!)


Unfortunately Blogspot is having trouble uploading my final video so what I have done is published it in 3 parts to youtube so you will have to watch it there.  The links are below

Having done this it seems like kind of a smart plan to just back up all my videos on youtube in case you have trouble watching them as they have been temperamental before.  So i shall pop a link somewhere to my youtube channel where you should be able to find all the videos. Enjoy

Final Blog Update


Thought my blog needed a final sprucing up so I gave it a new colour scheme and used one of my finals as a back ground.  It works a lot better and looks a lot more professional now i think

Final Scans




The four final images all drawn out and scanned in ready to be coloured.  I am very happy with the way the drawings have turned out and can't wait to get colouring.

Development Of Finals





This is the image I have done of my time in Italy as it develops.  The image so far turned out well.  I am happy with the quality of line and am excited to get to colouring the image.  I have spoken to Pete and Louise and they both gave me great advice for colouring the images.  However they seem quite time consuming and time is short.  But I shall do what I can.  Remembering of course that I still have a large 2 meter by 2 meter Canvas to paint.
