All the art students I know have told me to not bother with those models, and that they don't even use them (other than a jewellery holder)

I half agree with this, half don't. They're not much good for making poses look realistic, because... they're little blocks of wood. What I do find them great for, though, is perspective. Mine has saved my life many, many times when I've been drawing someone with an outstretched arm or leg or whatever.

Sometimes I like to draw! Plus, with bonus flat colours to show the difference.

wheeeeee!

My apologies. I usually remove pictures in my quotes, I seem to have forgotten that one :/

Also flying Cronos!

May i join in?

This is not a finished sketch im still working on the pose and the finer details, but its what im currently doing.

Eviko · « **Reply #211 on:** 04 Aug 2009, 03:44 »

thanks... i think ^^;

i actually got bored of that one and went on to this, its a quickie sketch of a new Orginal Character design im working on.. im still figuring out her colour scheme, but i think it will be techno colour...or at least her hair will be either lots of colours or bright pink... i think.. :/

pose could make more sense too.. :/

JD · « **Reply #212 on:** 04 Aug 2009, 08:52 »

How long did that take you?

Eviko · « **Reply #213 on:** 04 Aug 2009, 13:00 »

hmmm :/ well i was doing it in class so i did't keep track but i think around about 20-40 minutes.

Thanks.. shes a new character for me.. so im working out her colour schemes still.. shes a bit crazy with colours..

here is a prototype colour scheme on her..

i think i might change the hair colour a bit. (on another picture.. this was done with markers so its done forever)

Eviko · « **Reply #218 on:** 05 Aug 2009, 14:02 »

Thanks.

That particular character has a taste for very bright colours. XD it sometimes contradicts my natural instinct for colour, but she is a lot of fun to draw.

Avec · « **Reply #219 on:** 06 Aug 2009, 10:01 »

I could never get skin color down, that's beautiful though.

Eviko · « **Reply #220 on:** 06 Aug 2009, 13:16 »

Thank you guys.

hmm skin colour can be tricky. what mediums do you use?

HighlyUneducated · « **Reply #221 on:** 07 Aug 2009, 19:53 »

What started as a warm up sketch amused me so much I turned it into a desktop background. I'm not sure which version I like the most.

White Shirt:

Black Shirt:

Anyway I am also working on a pair of graphic novels. One is kind of whimsical and the other is about a murderous, possibly possessed, sadistic serial killer who rapes and murders the main characters sister. I might upload the cover art later on - or maybe I won't let it see the light of day

JD · « **Reply #222 on:** 07 Aug 2009, 22:20 »

Sounds like Johnny the Homicidal Maniac.

Eviko · « **Reply #223 on:** 08 Aug 2009, 17:50 »

sounds fun. most of my art is concept sketches for several novel projects im working on. I used to love drawing comics.. i still do community ones (improv comics where artists battle it out by taking turns doing pages) one one of the forums i frequent I accidently started one with this sort comic (it probably doesn't make much sense if you don't know the character. im too lazy to really explain, but she is an OC of mine, who doesn't have much sense, and changes into different personas depending on the stimulus.

one artist thought it would be fun to "join in" and replied to it.. and it sort of continued.. with more and more artists taking part. the story arc is pretty simplistic but fun.
.. its a lot of fun, and you learn a lot art wise, because your pushed to draw situations and characters you would otherwise avoid.

Anyway i would love to see your cover art. <3 i love seeing what other people are doing with their projects.

So I've been studying Jeph's art style and I think i've just about got it nailed.

On the left is Hanners's face (partly), and the right is just a quick little drawing of nobody in particular

Eris · « **Reply #226 on:** 21 Aug 2009, 02:11 »

I got asked to draw someone in a bee suit, so someone in a bee suit I drew!

est · « **Reply #227 on:** 21 Aug 2009, 04:21 »

I am not exactly happy to be in the bee suit.

chowburger · « **Reply #228 on:** 25 Aug 2009, 12:56 »

It's a lady with a beard. What more can I say.

A lady with a bread.

You are quite good at what you do! Is that colored pencil?

jodizzle · « **Reply #231 on:** 20 Sep 2009, 02:44 »

I drew a thing! It took me over 20 hours to get it as close to how I wanted it as my silly hands could and I am pretty happy with how it turned out! It is actually significantly larger than this!

Eris · « **Reply #232 on:** 22 Sep 2009, 20:09 »

I, uh, drew some fanart

chowburger · « **Reply #233 on:** 10 Oct 2009, 14:30 »

Eris, I like her teeny tiny feet. Not sure I'd like to see her walk on them in rl, though :/

A sketch I did a couple of nights ago. I suffer from drawing-me-over-and-over-again syndrome. (Please don't refer to the previous picture I posted as evidence of this.)

JD · « **Reply #234 on:** 10 Oct 2009, 14:59 »

Nice work chow

A thing I made a while ago, touched it up recently, so it looked less boring.

BrilliantEraser · « **Reply #235 on:** 10 Oct 2009, 22:34 »

I consider the revamped drawing to be very not-boring-looking. I do actually like it quite a bit.

JD · « **Reply #236 on:** 10 Oct 2009, 23:46 »

Thanks!

phooey · « **Reply #237 on:** 15 Oct 2009, 12:46 »

Chowburger, I really like your style and you're making me seriously reconsider my drawing hiatus (not going so well, considering the extended Baba Yaga doodle i did in class yesterday) of almost two months. The shading is wonderful and so rare to find.

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #238 on:** 22 Oct 2009, 16:43 »

Hey guys, I've been drawing stuff for our student station, and over the course over the past month I think it's become clear we're dealing with a bird mascot.

quickpick of my sketchbook

Hip hop mondays!

Yo, other bird I'm really happy for you and I'mma let you finish, but CAWW CAWW CACAWW

Eris · « **Reply #240 on:** 23 Oct 2009, 01:08 »

I drew this about a week ago, but realised it was appropriate, what with Movember coming up.

PrickOfDestiny · « **Reply #241 on:** 08 Mar 2010, 03:52 »

MOUSTACHE.

Also, revival of the drawing thread with a picture of little Ares and Eris (the Discord, not the person who posted right above me, mind you).

(soooo I don't like drawing chillunz a lot)

LEARN TO FUCKING DRAW

Prickofdestiny your shit stinks so bad I can smell it from here, and I live on cunting Ganymede, the seventh moon of Jupiter.

Thomas Edison · « **Reply #243 on:** 09 Mar 2010, 17:25 »

It's true. I visit him for luncheon sometimes and we talk of the troublesome working class of Europa.

KharBevNor · « **Reply #244 on:** 09 Mar 2010, 17:52 »

Here's some ideas.

1) Learn what composition is

2) get some books about anatomy

3) throw away your fucking artists mannequin

Artists mannequins are just about ok for working out foreshortening etc. if you have some idea how to set them up, which you obviously don't. Here's a big spoiler: human beings have WEIGHT. They have a centre of mass. Their poses flow through this centre of mass.

Also

Really shitty noses.

So noted. Hey, forgive me for never having the chance to take an actual drawing class.

KharBevNor · « **Reply #246 on:** 10 Mar 2010, 06:41 »

Absolutely not an excuse. I never had a drawing class till I went to art college.

Neskah · « **Reply #247 on:** 22 Mar 2010, 00:56 »

The thing with me is i never finish what I start.

My house is full of unfinished paintings.

One day I asked my BF what I should paint. As we were both heavily into L4D he yelled out 'Zombies" and this unfinished peice is now currently hanging over our non functioning fireplace.

I really do mean to finish a painting one day....
