Homework Sketch Dump 4

Sketches I had to do for my 3D modeling homework at school. These sketches were all copied from Bridgman's Complete Guide to Drawing from Life. It's interesting to learn to draw from it. Hopefully it improves my anatomy. XD

Been slacking a lot lately...well sorta. Trying to get things done but there just isn't enough hours in a day or maybe I don't have as much energy I used to have. ^_^;; I will try to get a buffer of posts done next time! I bet you all are tired of these sketch dumps...well let me know if you are or not. Just haven't had time to write a substantial blog post.

Been watching Doctor Who (starting from the 2005 version) and I like it. I'm slowly catching up on the shows, I'm on season 2 now. hehe Let me know how you like it! No spoilers please!

Also really need to get my outline done for Wildly Charming for Nanowrimo as that's coming up faster than I would like. >_<;; Anyone joining me in this madness? Let's cheer each other on! Add me, my username is Aisazia. hehe



In addition to that I need to finish my sketch giveaways! I haven't forgotten you guys! Thanks so much for being patient! I will get them done by the end of the year at least! I think there are 3 sketches left. They aren't particularly complicated, I just don't know how to manage my time well. Sorry about that guys!

Hope you all have been doing well! Don't forget to enter my free notebook giveaway!

If you don't or can't wait to win one you can buy one from my online store! I'm holding a FREE SHIPPING special for the premiere of these notebooks until November 1, 2012 (US only)!

Review: Caged Cranes Notebook Design + Giveaway

Finally! Got some pictures of the new notebook design I had printed on little notebooks. They are about 3.5x5 inches, so perfect for a pocket notebook or purse! It's paper is made from 100% recycled paper and is printed with soy-based ink. It has 32 blank pages for your creative use.

I created the design in Illustrator and had it printed professionally.

The idea was inspired by those situations where I have an idea and sometimes I would cage it up in my head later because I didn't have a way to preserve the idea. I decided to go with paper cranes flying out of the cage since they mean happiness, honor, loyalty, good luck, and peace. I thought those were good representations of ideas so I used that in place of real birds.


Close up shots of the notebook.


I left the front blank so people could DIY. As a creative person, I would give it a title and decorate it. I haven't decorated mine yet but I will post pictures when I do.

I had a person tell me it's perfect since they were left handed. I didn't even consider that but I'm glad that the person could feel more at ease using it.



The binding just uses staples but it lies pretty flat.







Not completely sure if it's fountain pen friendly, I think it handles ink fine but not wet inks with broad nibs. I haven't experimented with mine yet but if you're curious enough I could try it out in an extended review or update this review. :D

Like what you see? Great! Then enter below to win one! In honor of my birthday on Sunday (Oct 14) and since I've been delaying the release of these notebooks I decided to give one away to one of my wonderful readers!

If you don't or can't wait to win one you can buy one from my online store! I'm holding a FREE SHIPPING special for the premiere of these notebooks until November 1, 2012 (US only)! If you buy something from my store it increases your chances of winning in the giveaway! Don't forget to come back here to claim the extra points!
