Vatsel: I know this is a the noob question since I have the art pencil set for every size of shading yet prefer to use the 0.5mm pencil (mechanical) and get to shade my art just fine.. What pencil do you use for such shading? to detail in dark and defining shadow?
@vatsel: Nah it was just that. I was reading on the net that you need 2B to shade stuff. But if we are using just .5mm mechanical pencil, I'd need a cotton to give that shading depth.. Thanks though. You gave me a relief that one does not need any sort of art pencil set for a good art and so on.
Tons of progress dude, this is awesome. you still need to work a little on your line in your pencil drawings, they need more confidence! but your paintings are sweet, keep it up!!
Beowulf- Yea I usually draw with the whole of my arm when I work in pencils, I need to translate that into my digital work. Also good point about the face ratios, I usually draw the forehead too tall, been trying to eliminate that for the past 2 weeks. thanks for the comments.
jack - yea I can't upload any pencil work I'm doing and I'm usually very selective with the digital work I post. The frequency of updates helps me get more comments. the time it takes to update is minimal. It's a good payoff. Much thanks for the comment and tips on how to improve that piece a bit up the page. acapulco -…
Well forming is the easy part the hard part for me is the shading, which you seem to have no trouble with >.< Anyways Good luck on your exam. How about I'll show you my sketches and you will know what stage I am at and what I intend to do. I figured that if I want to learn how to shade in general I would want learn it…
Grok5620 thanks for writing a comment :) Devin Busha thanks for the massive tips! appreciated drummer1075 Hey there! My name is Mark, and I dont take requests :) Nitewalkr A cotton? that sounds like a nice technique. though my goal is doing transitions with no smudging. tbh, idk if you can achieve the really dark values…
