Watchtower - Update

I spent a little more time playing with the drawing, and made some changes based on feedback I got.  This change was done to help make the perspective better, and to help the overall composition.

Weekly Design #11 - Watchtower

I'm sorry that this is the first (and probably last post) for June, but life has been keeping me busy.  I have been working on a drawing for the last week or so, but I never got around to posting anything.

This drawing is unfinished but is turning out pretty nicely so far (I think).  It still has a long ways to go, but you should be able to get the gist of it.  It is supposed to be some kind of a watch tower.  I used various asian buildings as reference to give it a slightly different look than I might normally do.

Anyways, let me know what you think.

June's Design Theme - Concept Sketches

Since I have been doing typography(ish) designs for the last two months, I have been feeling that it is time to change things up and do something a little different.  When I started this project at the beginning of the year, the goal was to help motivate me to 'design' things.  Since the word design is so broad, I have tried exploring some of the different things that I believe the word encompasses.  In that though, for this month I want to work on concept sketches, or the idea of doing a quick sketch of something and then elaborating on it.  While I don't consider myself to be a great artist, and these works will probably be very basic, I think that this will be a fun change from what I have done so far.

Look for the first of these sketches this weekend (probably tomorrow).
