Extra photoshop thing

I got photo shop at home and I liked what the people who where doing the concept art were doing. I wanted to learn how to do a detailed shading drawing on photo shop. I have watched a few speed painting on You Tube and I always thought they where really good. So I did a little practise in my free time at home on photo shop. This was my first on so I drew something that was close up and detailed not a whole character. I was just a test. Here is a wolf's eye on photo shop.
Ok this is the finished one. 

To do this I went through different stages.
First I drew the outline for the eye in pencil on photoshop.
Then I drew over the eye with the pen tool so you could see it properly. 
So now I could see were to colour in. I then got the paint brush tool and coloured it in with the simple colours you could see. I also blended some of the colour for the grey part of the eye.
I used the paint tool and found the colours I wanted to blend together. I basically painted a few line of the colours slowly becoming the other in between the two colours. then I used the smudge tool to make it look more effective.
 
So then finally adding the background and some more brush strokes to make it look like the final (at the top of page).

Extra animation at home


Before the animation project I did a practise walk cycle of a wolf in an animation program I have at home. I knew we where doing a walk cycle for our first project in unit 54. So because I animate wolves a lot at home i thought ive never done a walk cycle so i decided to do a simple one for practise before the unit.
