Wonderful sketches, specially those made on pencil. Yeah, the transition from pencil to tablet it's terrible - I myself I'm not done yet, although many years has passed since my first digital attempt. But why don't you use the best of two worlds? Make your initial drawing on pencil, scan and paint in PS? It works very well…
Gonna start doing daily sketches, I'm thinking one is going to be pencil on paper and the other is going to be in photoshop, I'm not as good in photoshop as I am with a pencil, so it'll be good practice. Yesterday I did noses with pencil and paper and today I'll do noses in photoshop. And then maybe I'll do mouthes. Any…
I carry a 6x6 sketchbook which fits easily into a back pocket. I use a ball point pen or tech pen which is better than a pencil, as the pencil will wear out from rubbing on the pages. If I'm not sure where I'm going with a character, I'll use a pencil to throw down some lines and then pick out what i want with a pen, or…
thanks man :) They're done in my moleskin sketchbook, so about 8" x 5.5" per page. I was working larger, but wanted to pull in to work smaller for a while. May get a big pad again - but i love the smooth surface & super thick pages moleskins offer. the figure stuff is a mix, but i mostly like to use charcoal pencils & vine…
Fixed the above, was "distorted" because of all the thievery lately. . ?p a c man? not pac man? (while back wanted to play with "colored pencils". an this happen) Was inspired long while back by an img by an artist on artstation & their concept stuck with me, so i wanted to play with a version of "my own". Then i decided…
lol...almost reminds me of a story here in the UK this week. Some 10 year old boy slashed another 10year old with the razor in a pencil sharpner,so naturally everyone is like "look how dangerous these things are lets ban them"....so guess what,they are trying to ban your bog standard pencil sharpner in schools....still i…
Mmmmmm FISHBOY! Great stuff as usual Pior I'm trying out Justin Kaufman's (Coro from CA.org) technique on my last pencil drawing... just inked it and done a quick wash with alcohol-based pen refill inks so far. Gonna do a coloured pencil pass, then gouache on top... haven't drawn anything in coloured pencil for years, and…
Starting today I decided to get back into pencil sketching and bought a sketchbook and some pencils. This is my first proper drawing in at least five years and also the first time I have used a charcoal pencil. Now that I finished it all I can see is the problem with the shape of the left side of his head. This sketchbook…
Twoflower - Thanks man! I'll keep pushing it! More pencil drawings! Working on some portfolio stuff on the side now, really stoked to get it done so I can share it. Loomis figure studies as usual. Still struggling with proportion and linework. Slow and steady I guess. And sketchbook pages. Focusing on drawing from memory…
[ QUOTE ] i think these studies are going to pay BIG dividends in the long run, keep studying. the head studies in particular are nice. this new crop of torsos are good, but it looks like you need to sharpen your pencil keep it up, and keep scanning! [/ QUOTE ] yea I am bad about sharpening my pencil. I actually don't like…
