  • 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

I have finally decided to post on the forum as a way to make a sort of timeline for myself as well as meet and/or surround myself with others with a similar interest. I bought all 10 terms two months ago when I decided I wanted to improve my digital art skills but I have only managed to go through two videos and have only been able to complete around three assignments.

There are some goals that I already have in mind before I start this long journey:
- To truly improve (extremely vague and subjective but it makes sense to me)
- Gain a sense of comfort and confidence with my work
- To become more dedicated and hardworking towards becoming an illustrator

What I'm using:
- Clip Studio Paint
- Wacom Intuos5 Touch, M, Model: PTH-650
-Procreate
-iPad Pro 12.9 inch

Thanks for taking the time to look at the beginnings of my journey. I hope to stay proactive and update as much as I can.

There were some issues I did run into when I started on the assignments for Photoshop for Digital Production 1. But I did try to complete the ones that I could using Clip Studio Paint.

1.

This is an assignment that I would love to return from time to time to complete time and time again. Please don't mind the name and date in the top right corner.

2.I was unable to open this assignment but I would be more than glad to return to this assignment if it were to become accessible for CSP in the future.

3.

I'm quite critical of this one. I don't think I was able to execute it so that it seemed like the girl was part of the picture. It still seems off looking at this a week later.

4.
I think I did decently for this part of the assignment. However, I was unable to complete the second and third parts of the assignment because CSP doesn't offer a tool close enough to liquify or healing brush.

The assignments that I was unable to complete will have to sit on the back-burner until Photoshop becomes accessible for me.

This will be out of order but I had skipped to watch the video on Nude Figure Drawing and had not realized that I had assignments I could follow along with the video. I had taken some notes but I will have to revisit the video to refresh my memory and follow along with the assignment in front of me. However, what I have taken away was doing gesture drawings daily. It's been about a month and a half since I started and I've definitely missed a few days or spent less than the recommended time on some days.

Start day November 2, 2019

These are all the gesture drawings I have completed on a daily basis with 39th being the one from last night. I usually zoom in about 200% into the canvas and start at the top left corner and slowly move to the right end of the page. In earlier gesture drawings, the size of the canvas and gestures were very inconsistent but I have gradually worked towards a most consistent size for both. But I have noticed that even during 1 hour sessions, I still have space remaining at the bottom of the page so I will be working to zooming out more for a more filled out look.

I am currently using a 750* image pack from Kiroz Blogspot but I am hoping to find even more gestures to add to my visual library later down the road.

Edit: Forgot to mention that there has been quite an improvement in line quality for my gestures but I am unsure if I am still using too many lines. Nonetheless, I still have to work on my proportions of limbs relative to one another.

18 days later


Finally got around to doing cylinders in different angles. Took roughly around an hour.






Same day, spent some time doing gestures from imagination because I wasn’t at my desk. It was much harder to come up with different poses but even so, each one didn’t take much longer than 15 seconds. For some of the poses, I went back and added mass. In hindsight, I should have expanded the canvas or zoomed in so that the gestures would have been on one page instead of 5.
