  • 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

One more whilst I had the chance, Perspectives. Practising for the room assignment, something I've struggled with in the past so I'm stoked to work on it!

I forgot the apples didn't I u';

Also; Whenever I use the colour picker (latest photoshop) it changes the colour of my background colour (the one you'd see if you were erasing something whilst the layer is locked) instead of my foreground colour, does anyone know how I can fix this? It's highly annoying and jarring whilst I am trying to work.

I like the Angelina / Beans mix up! :smiley:

The foreground square is the lack one right? Cause even if I've clicked the 'reset button' (the miniature black and white squares) and then colour pick, the white square is changed.

Also thank you c': I think the idea was good but my execution could have been better

Whilst I struggle along with the mystery of my colourpicker tool, I none the less got to continue on my room, so here's a progress shot because I'm still thinking about what I should add though, I'm awful at filling up a blank canvas. I'm thinking it's like a spa resort or a luxurious bathroom, Any suggestions?

I think the roof seems a bit empty. Maybe a light or another window?

Also, some shelves on the right wall and beside the door might look good!

I like the shape of the bath :smile:

All of your work looks fantastic so far Keko. I especially love your image composite. The Dutch angle really helps create a sense of drama to it. One thing I will suggest is that you work on the nose on the combo of RDjr and Gilbert Gottfried. The nose isn't centered, and its not in the "all people are not symetrical" way but a bit in the, "This doesn't belong" way. Like, it is REAL close, but off JUST enough. Sort of like the Peter Cushing and Carrie Fisher models in Rogue One. They were good, but just a bit off.

Hey, thank you for the compliment c: I struggled a lot with the face and especially the nose placement, so I'm not surprised it's noticeable. I'll have to give it another go and see if it turns out better a second time round, thank you for the feedback as well c:

By no means is it meant to be negative criticism. I really think your work so far is outstanding. Certainly more dialed in than my own. As Marc said, we grow here by helping each other, so I just hope that my critiques ARE helpful.

I didn't take it as such, I'm very glad you took the time to look at my work! I myself hadn't noticed it until you pointed it out c:

@Tenzo Thank you I'm quite pleased with the shape of the bath c: I've added a few more elements but it's still lacking some life to it, so I hope to add a few details when i next have the time, gotta add in a few more curves too probably, thoughts?

Oh yeah, now it feels much more whole, I like it. The only thing that is bugging me is the windows on the left wall (not sure if it's a window). It is a bit confusing, not sure if it's in the wall or sticking out of it. I think there is something wrong with the perspective there.

But all in all, I really like your drawing :smile:

Whew I'm not dead, but the flu hit out 3 piece family very hard so I've been nursing my baby boy back to health, as well as my man baby and myself haha. Then a fun filled family weekend to follow and I'm still not 100%, but at least there's progress!


I've finally started on my Apples basket manip, but something like that is super tedious to me so I'll be doing it in slow bursts. I'm also gonna start the extended version of line practice in a bit so I hope to have that done soon too so I can go back to working on the Spa Room <3

Speaking of;

@Tenzo
Those are wall decorations like this image, but they're one of the first things I drew and I agree they just aren't done well so I'm going to redraw them when I next have time c:

ahahaha I'm not entirely dead I promise, but I am insanely busy.Also I'm going to go back to school! So although I'll be saving and downloading my lessons, I can't guarantee I'll have time to follow them. I hope everyone else has a blast doing so though!

Anyway I guess this is just a head's up!
