If for whatever reason you’re wondering what my website used to look like, and my older portfolio images, you can still take a peek at kimhazel.com/old. I still like those talking birds.

Animal Character Design Class

It’s been a while, blog-o-mine. I figured it was time to finally post up some of the doodles I did in an animal character design class I took summer 2008 from David Colman! I still don’t have a scanner, so once again it’s cleaned-up iPhone photos. (Sorry! :<) There’s a lot of things wrong with these drawings, but I learned A LOT in the process. . . that’s all that counts!

“Time is a gift, given to you, given to give you the time you need, the time you need to have the time of your life.”

I wonder if they’ll ever re-make “The Phantom Tollbooth.”

For the past few weeks I’ve been taking an online storyboarding class through Schoolism.com. Here’s some quick character doodles for my latest assignment (I’m a bit behind… ack) based on a script called “The Dysfunctional Dam.”

Have I mentioned how I hate creating interior home environments? I automatically think of a couch, a lamp and a TV. And the rest of the house is empty.

The first faculty critique came and went in a flurry. I’m not sure what’s going to happen with my story quite yet, but I’m experimenting with a new character design based on feedback I got in the crit.
At the very least, I like the colors for him and the sock . . . that is, if my story even has a sock in it anymore. :(

Doodley doo.

Took a break from homework to do some flamingo doodles:
And here’s another color dino + sock — in amazing TECHNICOLOR NEON!

More character exploration!
