Very nice Vonami!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'd put some of my sketches out there, but they need editing and they may not be very Mod-Friendly....Sooo ya...

 

 

 

What do you use to color? It looks pretty basic, but very effective indeed..

 

 

 

I guess...Paint? lol I'm prolly very wrong tho :wink:

 

 

 

Quick note if I may, his teeth look very even and his eyes are pretty friendly :P Just if you were going to pursue it any more :D

(Its anime, not porn by any means tho)

 

 

 

Photoshop, actually. As i said, the pixel part is quite a wip and I still need to add all that dithered shading, AA, SelOutlines etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for the critique. What's so un-mod-friendly about your own stuff? bewbz an bummies? Too bad if it is, i doubt they'd really appreciate "artistic nudity" being posted here. :lol:

Its covered...Just scsntally, I'll pm you with my latest piece after I clean It up a bit (Just from the scanning I mean) and possibly you can give me some tips on converting it/coloring it :D

Havn't cleaned up the edges. Was more of a test of detail than anything.. :x

Very nice venomai. Love the color choices too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We need more digital paints from you!

Hehe, I'll try to do digipaints from now on.

What's the next topic? :?

If I were anyone important in this, I'd suggest love scenes, but thats just me :wink:

Sorry folks, I am doing some new work, but can't show it yet.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It is a larger digital piece that is coming together pretty well. I am doing it for a contest with trunkswrath over on rsc. when the contest is started I will post it here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Besides...rsc battles are just too fun...got distracted.

There are digital painters at rsc? :o

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

btw, I've been away from my PS/scanner since monday. I should be back at it tomorrow afternoon, ready for these new topics! :)

3dsmax + ps

thats the coolest venomai

Very nice work! I finished my large piece and hope to be back in the swing of things tomorrow.

dude the 1 who wants a scaner go to your local library ( need 2 be a member ) and scan it . if your not a member ask your mum dad,friend, etc.. or go anywhere weir they photocopy stuff and copye it ..

Off topic wip, for Kane's little event (doesn't look like he's going through with it though). :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WIP (45% zoom)

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think i'm gonna try out some new methods for it though.. He's looking a little pale :lol:

nice work so far venomai.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My advice...cheat and just use levels to darken it a bit. Then you can paint using the new tones for the rest.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well, no bears have yet been produced by me but here is a new sig piece:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heh yea, he looks pretty ghostly.. Tweaking with adjusment layers isn't turning out as red and peachy as I was hoping, I think I'll end up just redoing it with a better colour palette.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nice sig, by the way. Cool pose and good work with the lighting. Are you working with a larger canvas, or directly at that size?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyways, no bears from me either - but I have been working on some new techniques. This was for their daily sketch forum - today's subject was "Art of War".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: Here's a brighter one. Gotta fix my monitor :x

well this isn't a bear, but he is furry! I am working on doing some quick sketches just to work on my restatement, lines, etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This was made to look like a quick pencil sketch though it was done in painter. bout 10 minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

pencil, quick sketch, 7 mins during our drawing class. Kind of a fun angle :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I did a quick bear :D , awww..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

teddy bears count as bears right? dun have to be like grizzlies?

teddy bears work :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

nice job on that one, very clean.

Just dug these up....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

a quick review of my old drawings....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These were some of the ones from when I first started...maybe at age 12-13...I didn't draw much before that.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

a lot of my early works I derived from D&D books, didn't know what else to draw.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

here was a bit later one. In fact, this one had a date on it...I drew it on the back of a grade report from governemnt class haha. would have been about 16 at the time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

then I went through a phase where I did conan style :) Some of them were decent...had more detail, but way off on proportions :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

speaking of proportions, check out that head! haha

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

probably my favorite from that era....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

later I started drawing from national geographics after college.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I never had a real drawing class. the only art class I had at all was a loosely structured water color class, so I taught myself. I still have a long ways to go, but I can really say I have improved. I was suprised too at how much I had practiced. I had tons of old stuff. That is the key folks...practice :)

digital water color practice

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Great colours.. A little blurry though.

since someone finally did a bear, guess I should switch topics :) angels...I still hope to get the bear done. but I keep drawing other things lately.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

yeah I was going for the old style, loose really airy water color look. I have done some detail stuff in watercolor like my cat picture, but that is dry brush, and doesn't really look the same in painter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

here is my portrait of a truffle sniffing pig....on artpad

Here is today's work. Drawing from life, quick poses. no shading , while working out haha. Makes for a moving target, but that is alright. Considering it came out pretty well.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Life drawing is so much more fun. You get a huge reference, and I worked on an 18x12 sketch pad so had plenty of room to stretch it out there. Great fun! I need to do more of this. Maybe we can start a clothed figure drawing group around town or something.
