Saidin: Fyi the vanishing points of objects aren't always the exact same unless you are doing an orthographic projection, or they are all in the same plane and at the same orientation. So the vanishing points of the road and the chair should generally line up, but everything else is pretty well on its own. Indian Boy:…
quick paintover highlighting areas needing improvement-- sorry, couldn't resist but in all seriousness, some tips that might help; 1. your brushes could use a little less fuzzy. turn up the hardness a bit--because sometimes, no matter how many strokes you put in, those soft brushes will kill detail. i'll get into making…
Your drawings lack shape and come off as very flat. Think in 3D when drawing. For instance, the wax that holds shut the letter casts no shadows on the letter itself, giving the whole painting a flat appearance. Push up the contrasts more. Work with darker brushes, don't be afraid of them.
heres a little piece for an ISU for a class i have coming up its a view of a fighter craft photoshop 100%. not even a pencil drawing to go from. it HAS to be 100% digital, lol. tell me what you guys think about it. i'm, as always, open to all crits and suggestions:
the image is too busy, with no composition. is that a puddle of water? is that fire? is the fire coming from his hands? what is holding the trident? I can't see any of this being answered. a slight improvement over your earlier works. but it appears as if you're still putting too much thought towards your intended results,…
My girlfriend had a real cool dream, and it inspired me to make this. Lol, may seem weird, but he's a warrior who uses matchsticks, and his ability to flick em fast enough so that air-friction helps attain ignition temperature . the idea of a warrior didnt come from the dream.. the use of matchsticks sorta' kinda' did lol…
Great stuff Indian Boy, you are comming along very nicely. It has been great watching you evolve as an artist. You still have a long way to go but you have already come a very long way from your first pimp here on PC. You still need to work on rushing into the detailing phase. The last drawing is showing a lot of promise…
-speechless- those are amazingly eye-opening crits! i dont quite know wat to say in response to them, except: "wait and watch for my next piece" cuz i swear im gonna do something which is "all one colour", only 'not'. or try. The polar bear thing was a nice revelation for me, so thank you! thats all i can really say:…
I agree with oobersli. A good way to get fast, and good results out of drawing, (especially fast results) is to look at how cartoon and comic characters are constructed. Lightly sketch the whole figure in basic forms of their mass, even start with a sort of stickman to get the pose and lengths of things right, then add on…
hello once again guys! art class at school is killing me. causes art burnout to the extent that i cant spend more than 30 minutes a day doing art [though i HAVE been producing music of late] i finally decided that i can go 30 minutes a day to make some rael quick pieces, starting from simple to complex all digital for now.…
