@AngelinaKizz I really like the sitting one (and I agree not cheating). Go for it!
Uni assignment

Man, it has been a crazy busy 6 weeks. I haven’t even had a chance to wrap my head around Glow, and inktober has been a total flop for me. It seems to be pretty consistent that sept/ October is where I hit my burnout, and then I get my groove back come November. I think is has a lot to do with weather shift here, and the kids going back to school. Any who, I’m back full swing into my university courses, and I’m so excited to be enrolled in picture book illustration through Emily Carr in Canada. My first assignment is to create an illustration of myself. Clean simple lines, black and white, that could easily be read really small, to be turned into a digital stamp to sign all of the submitted work with. I’d like my little avatar to be more interesting than just standing there… any thoughts on these two little rough sketches? I had done one a while back, and I liked the perspective on it, as I’m a tiny adult (I’m 4’8 and around 100lbs) but it’s full color, and I feel like I’d be cheating this assignment to just trace over it.

They all look like they’d work for you. I don’t think it’s really cheating to trace over your completed work. If I do that I usually think of my original as a sketch… most of the time it comes out better.

@AngelinaKizz I really like the sitting one too! It would work well in a square or round format, and for some reason I always think that avatars look better in that format. More compact.

Thanks everyone! I'll flesh out the sitting one!

@AngelinaKizz I was going to say the sitting one too, but it looks like you already decided to do it. It is a fun pose and friendly.

Progress…
