unknowz Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Hello people, this vid show me drawing a character as quick as I could (the vid is speed up) It doesnt show the shading part, but you see the final result at the end Thanks To:reddawn509, Hoopster211, JacobRyan, navyplaya, bigsword33, Ferahgo28, speedofsound, Goldwolflord, unknowz, GonAndGary and born2die Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terley Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 very odd technique, you should never just draw your final linework outright, you have to plan, make constant changes.. Your roughly jotted out a shape of a character which you seemingly refered from a stick-chararacter plan and filled it in with randomly chosen colours.. Even when speed pixeling, the main part of it is, sketching out your character, getting the anatomy correct as possible and then cleaning everything up.. When colouring it, its essential you are constantly altering your palette, certain shades may be slightly too dark/light/saturated etc.. when shading you need to be adding depth to your image, creating the illusion the image is 3 dimensional, and not flat.. It really seems like you've bypassed all that an artist focuses on and simply filled rushed linework. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeonardMart Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 if i made a video of me making pixels, you would fall asleep... just with the linework i do at least 2 versions of the same thing and keep adjusting it for a very long while. and anyway, whats the point of speed pixeling? taking more time will give a much better result.

The goal of this was to see how fast I could do it. sketching then cleaning up (like I usually do) wouldve take too much time And you can see a shaded image I didnt vid at the end Thanks To:reddawn509, Hoopster211, JacobRyan, navyplaya, bigsword33, Ferahgo28, speedofsound, Goldwolflord, unknowz, GonAndGary and born2die Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jav Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Very nice man! I know I definately couldn't draw that fast :shock:,even with it speeded up. jav "Let your feelings be like that of a monkey in a pinata, hiding inside with the candy hoping that the kids don't break through with the stick."

Lovelydude Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 I agree with Terley, using linework in that manner almost forces one to leave problems with it. D: Also, use Shift with the pencil tool for making straight lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terley Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 whether its a speed pixel or not, you've totally ignored the basics.. you didn't even sketch, you drew the final linework straight on without any alterations.. If you wanted to restrict yourself for time, then drawing a complex human form wouldn't be the way to go. intead I'd try draw something much simpler, and on a smaller scale.

Heh, you almost sound like I've done something against the law :lol: Well, I'll bear that in mind if I ever try something like this again. And thanks for that shift tip lovely, I knew you could use it with the circle, but not with the pencil.

Lovelydude Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 You have to understand, that you will not improve by doing things like drawing the outline and not making alterations to it once it has been made. You also rely on the outlines too heavily. Not good. D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
