DO THE DISCO!!

i love your style (especially digital paintings) but at times i feel like the characters limbs are just a little stiff jointed or the poses aren't exactly right. just work on that (i admit, it is the hardest part of art), and it'll be perfect!! i really want to see your style of painting too (watercolours blah D:< needs more acrylics!!! blends nicer and looks cooler, and is a little easier to handle)

Two new sketches. Very sketchy sketches that need work. Planning on using them in a piece when I get time though.

Spoiler:

Spoiler:

I like the top one. Your anatomy has improved, though I think they still need work, especially on foreshortening/perspective/diff. views/or something.

you've got some nice sketches.
The top one looks like yuna. The bottom one I like better because of the facial expression.

Third is a sketch of Roiz and Krue from the day I predicted my ex was gonna break up with me. I'm good like that. I always know. In order.

Bull. Shut up. Lol. Anyways, that's right Ultima. Draw those hoes like there's no tomorrow!

I'm a visual person, so I like redraws to help me with anatomy. If you don't like it, don't click; http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5...0s/anatomy.jpg

1. It might be 'style', but distance from neck on both sides = width of head.

2. Your bodies are usually really long but I'll chuck it out to style for now.

3. Your elbow ends at hipbone/end of ribcage.

Keep it up. Too lazy to do anymore.

Both of these pieces will be done by next Sunday. They're the cornerstone of my college portfolio, which I really want to finish in the next week or two.

Shit son, you're getting good at this drawing business!

(and they look anatomically correct, to boot!)

Its pencil. Whole thing done today on the back of a thematic essay assignment sheet. Don't have pens to ink, so I just had to take a picture. My scanner sucks.

I really like that "Yield 65%" thing; she has a great body, but the arm just looks wrong. The upper arm tapers too much, the forearm looks like it has been whittled down, and the hand seems far too big. I like the overall style though, with the hair covering the face.

Latest advents of this piece. This is just a version for my portfolio, due frighteningly soon. Once all of that is out of the way I'm going to go back, equalize the lines and add more detail.

Also looks like I upped the resolution. Happy loading, guys.

Portfolio version done. I'll pick it up and work on it in a week or so when my college shit will hopefully be done. The inspiration from this piece was CGsociety with all the fine details and stuff, so hopefully thats what this will evolve into.

I don't like the fact that the River of Souls piece has diff tones in the background yet she's flat. Lighting is all messed up too. But I guess you're rushed. Anyhoo moving on, I like the composition on the one taken with a camera.

Yeah people have been on my ass about that all night. My answer was: She's not exactly flat (there is shading), but if I have time before I have to send it out, I will fix it. And I'll also probably end up fixing it for my other four portfolios. The piece is "done" but its not done, if you know what I mean.

Anyway, the other 'cornerstone' piece is done.



If I have time, I'll try to "fix" the circles, even though I like them as is. The last two rows are larger, but when reduced to the size of the others, the symmetry is still off and it doesn't look good (I lost the brush size :\/)

The coloring is better here, although I'm still annoyed at her crotch. It's like she's flat there or something. Don't blame it on tight pants cause those would only accentuate the line from thight to crotch to thigh.

Greater contrast in skin tone and more tones overall would've been nice. And uh... you could always just copy and paste the circles.....

Took a Wii break. I'll fix those things more towards 6am-ish because there are some things bothering me too.

Here, have an advertisement (Portfolio piece #3)

Don't rush your art, it makes it look bad.

Unfortunately I have no choice right now.

Had a chance to work on it before I sent it out to Carnegie-Mellon. I have 3 hours to work before I have to send it out to Drexel, although I don't know if the big post office is open today...

The new piece kind of rings more incomplete to me than the old piece did, but it does look better. I need to add more lighting/shading to Krue and blend the mountains better, and it will look much more complete. As soon as CS3 finishes reinstalling, this will happen.

After almost 22 hours straight of drawing, I did get some sleep last night. A decent amount too. But it begins once again....

Got bored. Look forward to more.
