Awww he looks so angry but so squishy and huggable!

Finally someone else decided to post here again! I have missed this thread.

I just finished a portrait of me at 9 months for my mother's birthday. I'm such a cheapskate (but wasn't I adorable!). It took me forever, I think I went a little bit blind.

This is two different versions of a sketch I did on the Intuos last night. As you can see, I'm trying to figure out what to do with the mouth, probably won't get it right until I ink and color.

jodizzle · « **Reply #52 on:** 21 Jan 2008, 16:14 »

Why thank you! ^_^ I am also impressed with you MS Paint and mouse picture! it is lovely!
I was actually going to revive this thread the other day because I miss it but photobucket was being dumb. Here is a rainbowy sketch!

Nonbaka, nice work, especially the dress.

Spluff, that is most excellent. Great use of shadows/highlights.

I have no idea what I think about this.

Ebony Willow, you are amazing.

The Sam bee is pretty much my hero. Almost. Right below that guy who hid a castle behind hay bales.

Thanks Hartley. Sam is a great bee! I am working on some thinrenlty, so maybe there will be more things to showcase. Hoorah!

Spluff: I like the coloring style on that. What program did you use to make it?

Thanks, that was just Photoshop.

To distract me from the complex drawing I am spending forever on I drew Ali (aka Fatty) because she asked me to. here she is in all her speed sketched glory!

jodizzle · « **Reply #67 on:** 09 Feb 2008, 22:02 »

Here is my picture I had been working on at the time of the Ali-sketch. I spent like 7-8 hours on this, and alot of that time was spent on the goddamn ballet shoes. I am pretty pleased with it though. even if it is completely obvious I am horrible at backgrounds!

Also Nonbaka, that guy looks intense.

pen · « **Reply #68 on:** 13 Feb 2008, 06:57 »

Jodie, those shoes came out perfectly. Well done!

What kind of setting were you trying to go for?

Cam · « **Reply #69 on:** 13 Feb 2008, 07:02 »

nonbaka, how do you work in mspaint and not go insane? Very nice work, especially for being made in paint.

Ebony, the only reason I would think the background would be out of place is the break of what looks like a tree on very left to a gentle slope. Otherwise, it looks good. Nice detail work on the stitching and the ballet slippers.

Nothing says love like eating babies. At least, that is what A Modest Proposal taught me.

Anyway, I'm new and thought I'd share some drawings I did for school.

And a painting from last night

Also, is it okay to post any sorts of furry artwork here?(I don't do porn or anything.. I just like animal people..)

jodizzle · « **Reply #76 on:** 04 Mar 2008, 21:16 »

So this is probably the best thing I have drawn to date, because of how excellently the face shading turned out. Its supposed to be Amber Benson (Tara from Buffy) but it doesn't really look like her. But it still counts as something I am super proud of anyway!

Soulsynger · « **Reply #77 on:** 17 Mar 2008, 10:29 »

@ebony:
Did you draw that on one or several layers? It looks awesome!, but I noticed some small flaws that occur mostly when drawing on a single layer Oo

And now:
Time for a drawing, everyone...

After a long time of not doing that, I wanted to draw something more related to myself again...
So I drew myself and chizzled the whole thing up with photoshop... ^^

Ã¶de · « **Reply #78 on:** 17 Mar 2008, 16:12 »

Jodie you are fantastic at drawing but please don't draw in photoshop! Photoshop drawings/paintings are so terrible ):

jodizzle · « **Reply #79 on:** 19 Mar 2008, 00:43 »

Dan photoshop and I are inseperable. Also, it is the only drawable program I have because I am SO used to it, and I dont want to pay money.

Also soulsynger: yesss I am terrible at layers. And tend to do things in just one or two. Layers annoy me! I dont know why.

Terrible? You don't have to be.
Annoy you? They don't have to.
It's amazing you maintained that attitude... I was always told to "MASTER YOUR LAYERS-thefuk!" first and obtain skillZ later. Oh well, many ways leading to Rome, I see Oo
That said, I like looking at your realistic pictures. Like the style =)

These are two digital works of mine. I am thinking about making the scheme (b&w <-> vivid colours) one of my things, cuz' I actually like those. (a rare thing for me)

I drew a couple of things last week! A weird bird thing and a little blue monster guy.

Inked with Micron Pigma markers, coloured in Photoshop, backgrounds done with Staedtler Auarell watercolour pencils.

absurdabsurd · « **Reply #85 on:** 08 Apr 2008, 11:47 »

I like this thread and don't think it should die.

@Hannah - those are amazing. The hand/bird one especially reminds me of some of Lupen Crook & the Murderbirds' aesthetics.

The following two sketches are from some point last month. Permanent ink pen, plus ink, plus crappy paper. Yeah, I do have a preferred angle for faces or face-like things, and I don't let that bother me when I'm just knocking sketches out in sequence.

.........

Also I have no scanner.

flauntit · « **Reply #86 on:** 08 Apr 2008, 19:29 »

love those eyes, absurd.

Soulsynger · « **Reply #87 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 11:29 »

Here's another one of the style mentioned before. I have decided to create a fictive world called "Vividity" in which these scenes take place.
(Spontaneous idea, I hope I get it working ^^)

Hannah · « **Reply #88 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 18:52 »

@absurd- Thanks! I've never heard of Lupen Crook and the Murderbirds before, so I'll check it out
Also, those drawings you did are stylistically really cool, especially the way you drew the eyes.

@soulsynger- Holy crap, that's neat. I liked the other two you did earlier a lot as well

absurdabsurd · « **Reply #89 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 19:06 »

@soulsynger: that is one seriously wicked piece of artwork. Also, I don't know what it is with me and band references, but...

Now, to dig out an ancient piece (2005) with a crappy title:

Soulsynger · « **Reply #90 on:** 10 Apr 2008, 11:22 »

@Hannah @ Absurdabsurd:
Glad you like my work =)

@Absurdabsurd:
Eh woah! The details!
What's that one done with and whats the original size? Oo
(I totally adore works of hidden secrecy like that. I myself am more than unable to draw like that ^^)

absurdabsurd · « **Reply #91 on:** 10 Apr 2008, 11:52 »

It was originally drawn on A4 paper. I can't remember what sort of pens, but going by my usualy habits it was probably Staedtler Pigment Liners between 0.05 - 0.2 thickness - been using those for 3 years and have never been tempted to change to anything else for works of this sort (though they are expensive and I do tend to wear down the nibs quite quickly).

I refuse to believe anyone who says they can't draw like that, because all it is is completely letting go of your head, and drawing in a stream-of-consciousness style that's composed of your hands almost instinctively drawing lines and dots and shapes. I find it's basically the best way to relax, though I haven't really taken the time to do so in a long while. I probably should.

I know the purpose and I know the "technique", but I have a hard time even drawing clear lines when I am not thinking ^^
My strongest moments are when I exactly know what I want to draw and can think about every line beforehand.

Letting go of my head almost always results in weird, grungy, restless linework, never in drawings as clear and complex as yours up there.

Here is an example of how grungy my traditional drawings are (when not using a reference) even when I do plan ahead:
(If I should start using thumbnails again, just tell me)

Hannah · « **Reply #93 on:** 14 Apr 2008, 13:23 »

Soulsynger, that drawing is just really pretty. I love the line work and detail in it

I drew this during lunch really quickly (I almost got pizza sauce on it more than once), but I like how it turned out:

It was my friend's birthday this week. She is as Alice in Wonderland orientated as me. So I drew her an Alice-themed picture. The background is crap, because backgrounds and I don't get along. But Alice looks totally adorable. I like how she is all greyscale and outlined so SHE DOESNT FIT IN GUYS. WONDERLAND IS NOT FOR HER.

imapiratearg · « **Reply #98 on:** 18 Apr 2008, 13:28 »

I draw stuff sometimes, too.

Like this:

I changed it a bit, the other day, but I keep forgetting to upload the new version when I'm in class.

And sometimes, I use the pen tool on Photoshop to layer shapes and make things.

Like this:

Also, the quote from that drawing up above is from the song "You Are" by Built to Spill.

nathano · « **Reply #99 on:** 24 Apr 2008, 13:59 »

Just a few pictures of some of my friends I've drawn, I'm still pretty bad, but I'm trying to improve on it, my major issue is that I have very shaky hands and I'm pretty bad at drawing gently.

Anyways, posted in order they were drawn, several months between the two, each took about 2 hours to complete.
