New Milestone? Thoughts??

HEY HOWDY DEAREST PATRONS! I just wanted to let y'all know that I'm thinking about adding another milestone goal, probably around the $130 goal-- What say ya on weekly livestream sessions where I can get together with peeps & pick one of the countless exercises in Scott McCloud's 'Making Comics' book-- And I'll just sit and get some practicing done in the company of fabulous people?? Plus, a whole lotta these exercises include options and lists of stuff to choose from- Settings, simple plot...

Snowy Sketch PSD file

Dear $5 Patrons, From studying some colors based offa a screen shot on Episode 1 of Kill la Kill, I learned that almost every color in that screen cap (see Snowy Sketch Process in Activities section) was all within the blues section on the color wheel. Understandably for the background, but it happened for the girl, too! Her clothes, hair and eye are all in the blue section while her skin was a grayish/purple. Only the highlight in her hair was a deep magenta/red if I remember correctly. In the...

Color Observation!

Dear Patrons, Most recent thingamajig & its progress!! 8D The most major challenge in this was perspective and color- And in short, lots of reference for the color came from the game Dishonored! By studying the scenes in it, I learned that the backgrounds are almost always lighter in color than the figures. In fact, the more distant the backgrounds are, the lighter the colors get, from what I've seen. For perspective, I havn't learned that much, I mostly just followed the grid I set up by l...

Takin' too much time on deets in doodles? (Life Drawing/Sweet Figure Practice)

OH, OKAY SO- I've heard a few professional artists say that when setting up a picture, you shouldn't take too much time on the sketch, maybe ten minutes at most. I consistently suffer with worrying about details subconsciously as I sketch and I keep losing myself in it, taking up to 90 minutes to finish a sketch before finally moving to the lineart stage-- A'IGHT, essentially what I'm trying to say is, this website right hurr: 2014-12-30 23:44:36 +0000 UTC View Post
