Sycra post Sycra's Secret Scraps #3 from patreon

So here's another secret scrap... Dunno much to say about these because it's really quite a while since I made them. I dunno... I would be interested to know your thoughts on secret pieces or stuff you just withhold from showing for a long time. Do you like your older pieces? Do you find you...

Concerning Style Development

So, I got a message from someone who was asking if they should base their style on reality, and if that would help them, and was wondering what my thoughts on style were and how to push it further. Here's my response:I think reality is the best basis for style, but I also think there are differe...

Sycra's Secret Scraps #2

Here's another of those secret videos, done a while back.

Sycra's Secret Scraps #1

A while back, I did some sketches that I recorded but kept unlisted because I didn't really feel like they were worth posting. I figure it doesn't do much harm to post them here though.

Old Works from 2014

Okay, so this'll be the last of the image batches. I was a year into finding my style at this point. There are hints of it, but I still had a long ways to go. You can see the images here:https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qeggvewtymgfz6v/AAC8jgDdaiyyObKp93MpiUYSa?dl=0

Old Works from 2013

So there are less images here because 2013 is when I committed to do daily studies with bobmeatbag ( that eventually became the Pointy Chins series ). So these are images that I haven't shown in the archive already. There are a couple of card art illustrations but then it goes into the period of...

Old Works from 2012

This is the probably one of the crappiest years I had artwise. I joined the Crimson Daggers and started getting work doing card art. I guess I learned how difficult it can be when you're not following your passion!Here are the files:https://www.dropbox.com/sh/615zhqx16igt2yp/AABtPnWyUhODyCX3Vbj0...

Old Works from 2011

This was a pretty confusing year for me. I finished animation school, and knew I didn't really want to be an animator, but wasn't quite sure what to do with my life.I think these images reflect some of my confusion and directionless feeling:https://www.dropbox.com/sh/0shc95dm50e3yev/AABk4CET...

Old Works from 2010

So this is the year I took a course on caricature with Jason Seiler at Schoolism.com and it's also the year I started animation school. I was 26 years old and 4 years into making YouTube videos. Well, here are the files:https://www.dropbox.com/sh/yv4qu3dzmbysso7/AACl0AKDpRQI5vySZ1dGHijLa?dl=0

Old Works from 2009

This is the year I started getting into caricature.WARNING: There is a fair bit of NSFW content in here! Viewer discretion is advised.Okay, well here are the files:https://www.dropbox.com/sh/xtu2mazhvhrpkue/AADgG9GDy6F2CdDXAFVlhz4la?dl=0

Old Works from 2008

I had thought I wanted to be an artist from age 17, and I thought I was 'serious' about that goal, but I think it wasn't until 2008 that I finally started putting in work as if I was serious ( 12+ hours a day drawing ). I was 24 at the time. Here are the files:https://www.dropbox.com/sh/...

Pointy Chins - Episode 16: July 2015

On the 1st of every month, I'll be uploading brand new episodes of Pointy Chins! Here's the episode for this month! Hope you like it!

Old Works from 2005-2007

Not much to show for the next few years... I had some hard drives who passed away, leaving very little behind. But I wasn't really making much art around this time anyway. I'd do a drawing a day, but on top of that, I was sporadic with my production. 2008 will have more to show for itself.Fo...

Old Works from 2004

My toilet runneth over... Here's the next batch:https://www.dropbox.com/sh/w7593xi93nlucuh/AADqmT9p8m96-iuLd0xU6pjya?dl=0Age 20. Enjoy!

Old Works from 2003

Over the next few days, I'll be posting my older works from 2003 to 2014. So today we start at 2003, when I was 19... ...this is gonna be painful. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/091mewv4bubzv6g/AAC1ygmnYie8h_imA612DAuUa?dl=0

Specialist vs Generalist

Sometimes I get people asking me questions about art and I reply to them with a pretty long reply... But I started thinking that maybe it would be good to post some of these replies so that they may help more than just one person. Here is my response to someone who was told they need to learn many s...
