Space Alien attack from Outer Space (some studies, actually.)

I thought I'd be doing a lot more personal/imaginative stuff over the break.. but then I realized I can't paint as well as I need to in order to work that way. Damn. Anyways, here are some studies I've been doing to get better at drawing/painting the things I like.

First one is a study done in painter from my favorite Sargent. I might want to spend a little (a lot) more time on this one..

 Second, and last for now, study of an 83 Honda BEAT.

Thanks for looking, and Happy New Year!! Hope this one is good for all of us.

Some works in progress.

School is out for a while, so besides making future-rent-money I'll be working on some personal projects.
Here's what I've got going so far... both are digital pieces:

Thanks for looking, comments and critiques would be much appreciated!
