- Thank you! I finally cleaned that up. Meanwhile started 3 more ..I have a habit of taking too long to finish a piece, then I lose interest in it and just start something else. I found 8 from recently i started and abandoned, that are decent enough to not delete, but not finished. There’s also been a number of drawings I felt I “outgrew” - became better before I finished them, and it would be easier to start from scratch than fix them. Anyone else thinking that?in24.5k
- Lady Death Fanart Collectible: Part 6 Polypaint and base Hi, it’s time to share with you another part of the process to create this fanart piece. Polypaint As this is my first collectible fanart I didn’t have previous experience with polypaint so I tried my best and played a bit with it.I wanted to give a ghostly and eerie look to Lady Death, she is beautiful and deadly, but at the end of the day she is a woman that died and was reborn at hell as an avenging spirit, that’s why I gave her skin tone a bluish very cold tone.As you will see I gave myself some creative freedom to deviate from the traditional color scheme that this characater has in comics and illustrations.To add a bit of sensuality by painting some freckles on the face and the chest. The dark nature of this character was the perfect excuse to gave her a kind of goth make up, very dark shadows around the eyes, blue lips and fingernails. I know that the original character includes sexy red lips but I wanted this girl to have a sexy but at the same time creepy look, that’s why we can see some thin veins emanating from her eyes. The biggest chromatic change I did for this character is at the hair. Lady Death has a characteristic white weavy hair but in my fanart I decided to gave her a very saturated blue color.The reason behind this wasn’t only an aesthetic choice. I want that the face area strongly pulls the attention of the viewer so this area needed a stronger contrast. Another reason is that I want her to have a more modern look, as I mentioned before, I’m strongly attracted to women with goth/punk look. I gave myself half an hour or more to analyse the work of experienced sculptors that create collectibles and I discovered that the use of darker values on the skin is often applied to create a greater sense of volume and three-dimensionality. I found that areas with heavy ambient occlusion are the perfect places to paint with darker colors in order to increase the separation between different forms. Even though she has a bluish skin tone, I used a bit of warmer hues in areas that, in real life, tend to go towards red and pink, this is very obvious in the nose, cheeks, and knuckles. Thinking with a logical mind it’s completely absurd to have warmer tones on the body of a zombie like creature but I didn’t want to limit myself by using only blue tones, it looks boring and artificial. In real life these colors are created by blood vessels in areas where the skin is very thin. ** Scythe **for her weapon I applied a cool gray with some warmer variations, this color scheme is influenced by the work of H.R giger. Base I’d like to talk about the design for the base which, to be honest, I forgot to develop along with the character.My main idea with the base is to show that Lady Death inhabits a very sterile and arid land, at the end of the day she is at hell.You can see a that she walks over dirt and rocks, a sign that she’s surrounded by death and loneliness. As part of the landscape we can see some bones and skulls to reinforce the idea of lack of living creatures, yet we can see three hands that try to reach her legs.This hands represent that all creatures are subordinated to her power and seek an evil blessing with a simple touch of the princess of the damned.1- The hand with skin burns represents the souls of those who are newcomers to hell, tortured souls that suffer for the sins comitted on earth.2- The hand with greenish rotten skin and pustules is the reminder of the decay that has infected the souls of those who have been trapped and have forgotten their humanity3- Last but not least, the hand of a demon shows that even dark creatures and entities bow before her presence. The cherry on the top, at least in my vision, are the simese twins that emerge from the ground, this malevolent creatures remind us that in hell there’s only perversion and any trace of innocence is lost. Thanks for reading till this pointI’m really happy to be very close to finish this creative journey, last but not least it’s mandatory to talk about splitting the sculpture in several pieces to be printed, this will be my last entry before showing the final rendered images. See yaMay Zbrush be with youin1.5k

TERM 1 lesson 1
assignments
as im not really new to my tablet or art program i didnt try too hard on these, rather did them for fun and out of curiosity
i dont have Photoshop but use Krita instead, found out sum new tips and possibilities the program has that ive never thought of using ahaha
the last exercise had me taking waaaay too many double takes
i was really strugglin with sum of these can u tell xd
was lazy w these heheh
Term 1 - Nude Figure Drawing - Assignments
here are the assignments i did for the second lesson of term 1
drawing the ribcage and pelvis circles had me struggling frl TT
ive never really thought about ideal proportions before, was fun
also i spent too much time on drawing the male istg
was my first time trying to measure, failed but it looks kinda cool ahahah (red lines are traced off the model)
Term 1 - Perspective - Assignments
ive studied perspective before but dont enjoy drawing using it tbh, really slacked on the street corner one but it was more fun this way TT
this is my room (changed a couple things cuz im lazy xd), sadly the dead plants are the most accurate TT
also the clock and lamp seem off cuz i used perspective transfom tool and it just didnt seem to do its job

Term 2 - Digital Prod - Assignments
i did the assignments that i could figure out how to do in krita (didnt do pen tool and smart object assignments)
as im not new to using a digital painting program, i have already tested different brushes and found one that i really like, so i used that one for all the shading and gradients
making the chain brush was a struggle but i got it to somewhat work
9 days later
Term 2 - Anatomy - Assignments
had a really busy week, finally got the sheet filled up
ive done the head exercises multiple times before but have never tried drawing a realistic portrait aaaand i think i need to start doing those...
didnt use a reference and, i mean, it looks like a head, an ugly one but xd
also drew and shaded a stylised portrait (portraits just aint my thing, reference from pinterest and kinda speedran TT) and it just didnt work, i think i need to fix my way of drawing faces, cant change the proportions so much, it looks fine in lineart but shaded uuf
shading more complex shapes is a problem aswell, i can focus on the shadowshapes but lose it when doing halftones and just wing it xd
The features alone definitely look great! Shading the head is definitely a big jump in difficulty up from shading individual shapes, you did a nice job! Definitely check out the asaro head for more information about the different face planes and it will get easier over time. Shading a face is definitely super hard. Good work!
Term 2 - Perspective - Assignments
perspective is noooooott my thing, but i managed xd
i spent time on the first assignment, kinda winged the other 2 TT
i also changed them a bit and instead of creating 3 different buildings/sceneries i just did them all about a single, uh, lighthouse, tbh i started with a gateway to heaven but welp
hope thats fine xd

also thanks for all the nice feedback so far :))
