I have been working on some sketching exercises and “visualization” basically perspective stuff, but I had gotten way too into it, so I haven’t been able to actually work on the portfolio which as some of you might know, is why I’m taking the break. I decided to change up my daily schedule a bit to put less emphasis on those sketching exercises I was mentioning and dedicate more time on other things, one being the portfolio and the other being shoes, I’m gonna get more active with them then before, so hopefully if everything goes as scheduled I should have a new shoe done within 1-2 weeks, and probably a month from now I will start taking orders again.
Heres how far I’m at the portfolio, on the last update I had done three pieces, now I’m at the fifth(I’ll upload the fourth later today) which is supposed to be based upon this piece I did a about two years back:
The top section is pretty easy to do, just time consuming, its supposed to be a trace of the left paper piece in order to make a trail. the bottom piece doesn’t exactly take as much time, but its just a bit of a brain exercise to get the right panels in the inverted colors by the edges. I’ve been procastinating on this for almost a month so today I finally gotta put some work on it, heres how far I’m on it:
Well yeah, thats gonna be fun haha!
Now with the shoes, I’m currently working on some blazers for my sister over at Japan, initially they were supposed to be the vans I had posted a couple of months back, but due to the lack of a last they had turned out all wonky, this time I actually got one in hand so it should be a different story. This is the base:
I already took them apart, and started the pattern making so I should have some interseting pictures later.
Concluding what I had mentioned in the beginning I will be alternating days between working on shoes and my portfolio, so later today I will be working on the portfolio and tomorrow(Saturday) I will work on the shoes, this will keep me posting basically daily and you can see how things turn out and how long it normally takes me to work on such projects.
