Description I'm taking a Sci-Fi Fantasy Illustration course for Wintersession, a 6 week long stint. (: The assignment was to create an alien species, and illustrate how it would first encounter a human. This was fun to do, and I found this natural dry brushes somewhere and fell in love.

This is awesome~ I love the alien's face and expression. The composition, too.

Aaahh oh man, I didn't know you were a RISD student-- then I saw the word "wintersession" and I was like WAIT. HOLY CRAP
Another RISD artist in my watch-list! o:
Congrats on getting into sci-fi illustration btw, that class is so difficult to get into after freshman year!

Thank you very much! (: I'm pretty excited to re-work this, though, my professor found the composition a bit confusing. Are you a RISD student as well?!

And aw man, I'm glad I snatched it up - I'm gonna miss being a freshman, it was so wonderful getting first pick. :c The teacher is absolutely wonderful, he's the best I've had so far and I really hope I'll have him again soon

Yep, I'm a junior student here!
And yeah, freshman year was definitely the best time to choose classes you want most, I always wish I could still have that kind of priority haha ;w;
Ooh, and for the teacher I'm guessing you mean Jainschigg?

O: That's awesome! Small world, huh? Are you in Illustration? And I'm gonna miss this freedom, definitely ): but I'm still excited to get more focused on one thing. c: even though apparently sophomore year in illustration is like freshman year x2 lol

Yes! (: He's hilarious and a great teacher. I really, really hope I get him again. Have you had him?

Yep, I am! Are you thinking about going into illustration too?

Oh and, I actually thought sophomore year was a lot easier than freshman year! The classes/assignments are much more illustration oriented once you go into illustration, so it was much less stressful(and more fun, even) since I actually got to work on concepts that were more suited to me, instead of ones that force you to be an ID student or something XD (No more spatial dynamics helped A LOT) I suppose it's similar in other departments too, though!
Basically, you wouldn't think it, but freshman year is basically the hardest year for a lot of people XD

I haven't had Jainschigg yet, but I've been trying to hunt down the sci-fi class for a while lol! I hear so many great things about him. Unfortunately the class is always full before I can even register :/
