“Odosketch seeks to recreate the decidedly non-digital experience of working with a sketchbook. Its papery textures, variety of brushes and intentional imperfections make you forget you’re working on a screen.” [from the website]

That’s true because it’s often hard to get the brush to draw at that exact place that you want it to. But somehow that makes the charm of this project even bigger. It’s really great to grab some ideas by doodling around on the platform.

There’s also the possibility to re-watch your drawing process with the playback feature. I LOVE to watch the drawing again also in between because I can think about the picture and what’s still missing more efficiently. It’s also fun to watch the pics of others and how they’ve started.

Sometimes I just miss the “return step” possibility but as they want to have a realistic sketchbook I think this is necessary. There are also some featured sketches on the main page. And lucky me I’ve also got 2 times chosen for a featuring. I was very happy realising it although this means nothing special.

Sometimes the website is a little slow.

Here are two short Making Ofs:

Me and Alex – winter 2010 by *PinkBunnyLilli on deviantART

At first I only wanted to draw the boy and his guitar but now I’ve ended up drawing also the surrounding quiet in detail because I think it fits the atmosphere very well.

Here is a short Making of Heino:

For the final piece of work I’ve also added some textures in the hope to make the scene more realistic.

Heino by *PinkBunnyLilli on deviantART

She looks a little too much like a Barbie I think now but it’s still ok I hope

Here is a short Making of the angelic girl with bird:

After I finished the picture like it was on the photography, I thought that it was looking like the two
boys are watching something on the water. First I tried some spacy alien something but after some
other bad ideas the gold fish came into my mind. I like goldfishes because I had 2 of them when I was
very little (about 3 years old).

I think the picture finally turned out quiet nice.

Here is a short Making Of the sailing trip:

Alexander Rybak was one of the first I draw. I used a picture from a Norwegian talk-show interview as a basis. I don’t know whether I really captured his smiling.

finished: 17 May 2009

As I was coming into the mood to draw portraits, I searched for a nice picture in the big collection of deviantart. I found a great black and white photography of a young woman and draw the following picture.

finished: 27 May 2009

And this drawing was made after a picture we took at the prom of those two girls.
I liked the light atmosphere of the background and tried to include it also in my picture.

finished: 7 September 2009

I’m sure there will be more portraits following soon …

It was really fun to draw the bear, although I feel a little pitty for him. The keeper was telling
us that he is ill. So I hope he got better already.

At the moment I want to draw flamingos the most but I also have a cute pic from a little
elephant while he get’s washed. Can’t decide where to start

This are some little pet sketches. I was drawing them on different papers and in the corners of some study works.

This is a really fast doodle I did after I made a wrong answer in a lesson, I think. I often started to doodle after I made a mistake.

I think this is one of the oldes sketches I scanned. I named them little bunny girl and the mean rain kitty.

And here, again, they were found on different papers. Sometimes I’m even in that kind of mood.

Luckily, I got one of the winning entrys.
I took part with two pictures: Costumed Figure Got A Boy and Eye Candy Girls

Finally “Eye Candy Girls” were chosen as one of the winners. I also uploaded a Making Of to DeviantArt.

As a price, I got the book “Guy Sketches” from Bobby Chiu. It arrived this saturday. They even added a personal note on the inside:

This was fun. Maybe I should enter more contests in the future.

little green square pet papertoy, ready to get cut out: here

And here is a collection of some other great paper toys I found:
papertoy gorilla: it was my first papertoy some years ago, but I completely forgot about it
speakerdog: you can print out the blank version for free, but it can also look like this: by ~D-u-b-o-n
~el-salitas has also some cute papertoys in his gallery on DA
~luiskriegel has an interesting gallery too, I wonder how hard it is to create such cool shapes
Nice Paper Toys: a whole network on the topic of paper toys

sweet paper toys on an asian page
so cute >.<

The next days, I will start to create some more paper toys. But maybe I will stick to
the quare format… as it’s really simple and still cute
