  • 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?
  • 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 you

Ah yeah I tried to free hand a lot of the stuff to same time haha.. I will make sure to go back and check the perspective lines. Thank you!

Here is my attempt at the perspective 2 assignment! There's a lot I could have done better and I don't know if I really fulfilled some of the requirements of the assignment, but I kinda like it. This might be something I try to finish or redraw later down the road.

If you'd like, please feel free to comment everything you think is wrong about this work! It's a bit rushed so I do know where a lot of the issues are, but there's most likely still issues that I don't see yet.

Next up, I will be moving on to term 3.

Hello and welcome! Seems like you're doing well already. Your pre-Art School work already looks quite nice (I love the buff Pikachu :joy:) . It will be awesome to see how you progress over time.

Hi Cedric! Thank you for the nice message :smile: I'm very excited to see how I progress in the next month or two as well! And don't worry.. buff Pikachu is only the start. After the anatomy lessons I'm going to buff-ify everything >: D

I love your painting style and the feel of your Environments, your work is already so good can't wait to see how you improve more :open_mouth:

Thank you! I just saw your post as well! Let's improve lots and lots together this year!!

Here is my attempt at the clothes fold demonstration from Marc. I was blasting through terms 1 and 2, but it seems I will be on term 3 for a little bit longer. I really want to get better at clothes folds. Next up I will be doing some of the assignments and then move onto anatomy lesson 2.

Criticism is always welcome at any time!

Here is my own attempt at the assignment. I am having a hard time with the tension points and making the clothes look like actual clothes. Right now it just kinda looks like silk.

Any advice or criticism is much appreciated!

Oh, thank you! Means a lot to hear it from you heh. I could learn a lot by looking at your sketches OoO

Hiya! Today I will be working on personal art, tomorrow I will continue with the anatomy 2 lessons. In the meantime I wanted to share a one week difference in my gesture drawing practice.

30 Second Gesture Sketches
Before


After

1 Minute Gesture Sketches
Before

After

The way I approach these gesture practices have changed a bit over a week and I think it was a good change. But currently I'm having a lot of trouble with quickly seeing the gesture while also maintaining correct proportions so if anyone has tips or advice on that, that would be great!

If there are other types of mistakes, please feel free to correct me, Thanks!

for me I had that issue as well and still have it but I just spent a long time(about two months) just focusing on gesture day in and day out and over time I got better at drawing them to what I see as proportional but I also picked up the ability to identify my mistakes while I am drawing them and quickly edit them afterwards or while the timer is still going even if they are very small problems that aren't to bad so. Your gesture looks great though so keep up the good work! :smile:

tl:dr it gets better with time as you draw more and more gesture you start to be able to keep things in proportion easier and fix minor issues everyone will have proportion issues no matter how great they are at drawing imo it's just how noticeable is the issue at hand

Ahh okay, I see. Thank you for letting me know! I'll keep on trying to make a conscious effort to see my mistakes and hopefully it'll improve overall time as you said :smiley:

I'd keep proportion and anatomical correctness separate from gesture and focus on the flow of the body. Like Kosmonaut mentioned you'll get better over time. The more anatomical studies you do the more you'll recognize different parts of the body while you do gestures and they'll improve.

Ok! I'll keep these tips in mind for my future gesture sketches. Thank you! :>

Wow, your starting point was already super good and you finished so many assignments in only a few days! :flushed: Can't wait to see more from you :smile:

Thanks! And yeah the first few assignments were something I already knew some things about so I blasted past them. I'm now on anatomy lesson 2 and it's definitely starting to challenge me now hence why I haven't posted in a bit. Can't wait to see your improvement as well!

Hi! It's been a while. I'm currently on the anatomy lessons now so it's taking a bit longer to digest all the information. I've watched and sketched along with the anatomy 2 lesson. After that, today I decided to test my knowledge.

I sketched a whole bunch of random poses and drew all of the muscles of the torso on there from imagination to really test myself to see if I understood everything. There are still some proportional issues that I may have to look into. But overall I think I understand the anatomy of the torso a lot better than before!

Advice and Criticism is always welcome!

I don't know much about the muscles yet but to me it seems you're really killing it! :smile:
