First Paper Craft Project

Here are some photos from my first ever paper craft project. I made this for my big sister as a Christmas present. It's a caricature of my youngest niece, Hayden. I got really inspired by a lot of the paper craft artwork I saw when I went to the Creative Talent Network (CTN) Conference in Burbank, CA in 2011.

Hayden seriously has that hairdo all the time! So cute :)

Buffs!

Here is something I drew after being inspired by all the buffalo I saw when I visited Yellowstone recently. I was also inspired by all the stupid people that got out of their cars to take pictures of the buffalo from like 20 feet away.

I was amazed at how dumb people are when it comes to wild animals. Especially when they gave out this exact flyer at the entrance gate to Yellowstone, along with a newspaper about the park and several other forms of warnings about the wildlife:

I just redrew the sign to be a little more humorous.

The Von Uzbek

Here's my creature that I designed for Quick Sketch during week three. This is just the profile pose I used to finalize my design. I'll post a more dynamic pose soon.


And here's the description I wrote for it. I wrote it in about five minutes before class, so it's not the greatest. And yes, it's supposed to be a slight caricature of myself:
