Acrobat Sketchbook Assignment

As you can see this is my sketchbook assignment called Acrobat. For acrobat, the first thing that comes to my mind is a circus. In that circus, it is full of bizarre acts and full of  odd and funny performers.

so I decided to add some crazy characters in my sketchbook assignment.

As you see above, this is my rough sketch of my acrobat. My sketchbook assignment is about Fatcake, a ring leader for an circus commanding cookie, his assistant to light the cannonball  which then launch the giant elephant up in the ceiling.This is my out lined version of acrobat. I enjoyed outlining Fatcake, because he was very easy and fun to outline, and i think he still looks good outlined or even sketched. The other character I enjoyed sketching is the Elephant on the cannonball, because he was easy too trace and it was fun after tracing it. What I disliked tracing was cookie and the border that separate the audience, because cookie turned out horrible, and I  positioned him to close to the cannonball. The border was very challenging because I didn't draw it  that long, so i had to improvise, and draw it longer, which turned out horrible.

This is the  final version  for my acrobat. The biggest challenge for me, with coloring it, is coloring the cookie, and the exit of the circus, because i colored it horribly, and it was difficult for me to shade it using a brush. What I enjoy from coloring this, is coloring fatcake, the elephant, and the ball. I enjoyed coloring the ball because it turned out well, and it was the only thing that was shaded properly for my opinion. In conclusion this isn't my best work that is colored with gimp, but I did enjoyed the challenge of it, and the other outcomes of the characters, like the Elephant, and Fatcake.
