I was thinking, on the Fanart thread many of you write that you've just finished this and this non-Disney drawing and I'd personally love to see all the rest of your artwork, so why not post it here for all to enjoy? :D I hope you will!
Aww cool idea Honey!
I've got soo much work that isn't Disney that I've been working on! lol
I'm actually really excited you've started this!!

Aww, that's really pretty! She looks very mysterious but not evil. Does she have a story?
Hehe okey dokey =]
I posted 2 random drawings on a different topic
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4913 (https://forum.dlpguide.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4913%22%20onclick=%22window.open(this.href);return%20false;)
Where you commented me :mrgreen: :D/
MinniesBestPal that drawings brilliant! I agree with Honey she does look mysterious!!
Is she a Vampire?
I read on your intro that you liked them :D
Have you seen the Underworld movies? (I'm not sure what certificate they are)
But they have Lycans in too :mrgreen:
Yep! She's a vampire! And thanks!
She does sort of have a story behind her.. She's called Fang!
Aw cool!
I love her hair :mrgreen:
Thanks! She was only meant to have one strand flowing across her face though, not a big clump!
I drew this for a friend who moves school!
//http://little-cuddly-bear.deviantart.com/art/St-Trinian-Girls-93667929
She asked for us all to be St Trinian styled, because thats her fave movie, but in our own school uniform!
Cool!
I love it
Specially the girl with the mickey ears! :mrgreen: =D>
Yeah...um...thats me...hehe!
Eden listed all the people to be on it, and I tried to show their interests!
From left to right:
Amanda: Loves pigs
Caitlin: Love Nick Jonas
Sophie: Is Eden's best friend!
Eden: Loves to play hockey!
Sarah: Has a little sister!
Sarah's lil sis: Is cute!
Yasha: Loves reading

Heres another random drawing I've done

Ooo and do photographs constitute as art work?
AWW HOW CUTE!
Aw thanks =]
Well I'm going to bed, got some more Wedding stuff to get through early tomorrow.
Aww! I love weddings!
We're going on a trip tomorrow! Don't know where, but we've packed and everything. Mum just said " a trip" so, could be anywhere! (fingers crossed its DLRP!)
I'm not sure I'd call photographs artwork as such. Buy maybe we shuold just start a random photography thread then?? It's always nice to have a variety of creative threads to read.
And Phoebe, good luck with your trip! Hope it's dlrp too!!! :D

I would call photography an art form, as I'm sure so would everyone who does it for a living. Here's a pic I photoshopped for my mate's Bebo Page
Sey 'ello to da bad guy.(//http://file041b.bebo.com/13/large/2008/03/15/17/5391708516a7156724888l.jpg)
Wow Pete's Dragon that photographs amazing!
What do you think about having another thread for Photography like Honey said?
Would be a cool idea. :D
We could, is there not already a thread for posting you pics though or is that for holiday snaps of DLRP ? Cant remember off hand
I'm not sure, the only ones I've seen is the one for DLRP Pictures and then one for Posting a picture of yourself.
well then, why not. The more different artwork threads we get going, the more likely Kristof will create an Artwork Section.
I know Captain Pan had already asked about one, but there was more need of a new section for Games at the time.
Yeah, sounds good, would be great to see a new section for the art work.
Would you like to start it? Or should I? :D
I think you should. :) Ladies first.
Lol :lol:
Okey Dokey then :mrgreen:
I'll post it now =]

Why Yes... Yes I did... and at the time a new games area was more of a need... that an art area... If we get more Up and running I will again PM the head honcho and suggest it again...
But We'll have to wait and see...
But lets get these Topics up past 100 pages in the mean time eh? :wink:

I was thinking the other day about seperating my Tutorials from the Disney Artwork thread. Because they are different to the art work, if that makes sense?
Like the tutorials are meant as tutorials not pieces of art.... I don't think I'm making much sense here :lol:
Dunno if this is really artwork. I drew it once ( then photoshopped it a bit ) and was gonna get it done as a tatoo band around my arm. But at the moment, I'm no allowed to get any more ( I also want the Heroes symbol on my other arm)
(//http://i342.photobucket.com/albums/o427/Brtweed1976/LOTR05.jpg)
Thats cool!
Is it Elvish?
Oooo how many tattoos do you have?
It's the first line of the One Ring inscripton. It's not quite elvish, its the evil Mordor version, although the characters are the same as the High-Elven Quenya.
I only have the one tattoo. It's a scorpion on my right shoulderblade. My wife doesn't like them, so no more till she changes her mind

That Sounds Like A Good Plan Sienna...
(I would call you by your popper name but my mind tends to forget thinks these days!)...
With Tutorial topic then you could have members requesting tutorials also then, you could even ask others to give tutorials on how to draw other characters for you too, or they could post their on tutorials on how to draw other characters too!
Ultimately it would thin out the Fan Art Topic and as a result I wouldn't have got SO lost when I returned the other day from a small time off after my laptop went Crazy!
So is it this line? 'One Ring to rule them all'
I think the Elven writing is beautiful, and the designs of the sets in Lothlorien.
Did you find the tattoo painful?
Heres a drawing I did last year of Uruha from the Japanese band The Gazette.
He plays guitar.

Lol It's Laura :D
Yeah I'll start it now, and I'll repost my first sets of tutorials.
It's a great idea to have other people doing tutorials too, as it would be a way of finding out how others draw aswell as how to draw the characters :mrgreen:

Yeah, that's the translation. And yes it was sore, but only when the needle went over a bone. After about 15 mins, everything went numb.
Cool :mrgreen:
I think tattoo pain isn't too bad, it does just feel abit sore, but is bareable :mrgreen:

Here's another band member - Ruki - Lead Singer :mrgreen:
I really like everyone's non-disney artwork - once again, Laura, I really admire your talent at drawing people - it is simply amazing.
It's been a couple of years since I have drawn somthing that was not disney. But when I was younger I used to draw animals and some other cartoons - e.g. Simpsons. I will just see if I can find any of these drawings and then post them.
It wasn't DLRP but it was fun! I didn't realise when my mum said "packed" she meant a picnic! :P I thought we were staying somewhere! We took the dogs and went to the beach for the day! It was really good (minus the sick, poo and crab body parts!)
We went to the beach, so we had a 2 and a half hour car journey, and Bonnie gets carsick. So halfway there, she threw up all over my jeans! (luckily we were prepared - Dog bags, kitchen roll and baby wipes!) so I didn't have to live with it for the whole day, then at the beach Clyde pooed on my brothers shoe (I thought it was funny!) and then we started walking along the beach. I kept picking up shells, and the dogs were barking for me to throw a stone for them, so I picked up what I thought was a stone...It was half a crab! A crabs body and claw! I screamed, threw it away, and then realised everyone on the beach was now staring at me!
Anyhoo, I got some shells that I want to draw, and I also did some tinkerbell sketches in the car! So, I hope to put some of those up!
Now I've found some non-disney drawings from when I was quite young - I think over 5 years ago... I also found some old disney drawings, which I will post on the disney artwork topic.
I used to draw animals all the time - here is a tucan:

... and here are some Macaws:
(//http://i325.photobucket.com/albums/k377/forza_united/Non-disney%20artwork/DSC07158.jpg)
I've also done some Simpsons drawings earlier - here is one of Bart:

... and another one:
(//http://i325.photobucket.com/albums/k377/forza_united/Non-disney%20artwork/Bart.jpg)
and here is the whole Simpsons family during christmas:
(//http://i325.photobucket.com/albums/k377/forza_united/Non-disney%20artwork/DSC07157.jpg)
Hahahaha!
That little story just made me chuckle so much! :lol: :mrgreen:
Bonnie and Clyde seem like rather entertaining dogs :D
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/l_4a5fe3d0b55d396e740eb45424c79361.jpg)
Here's another one of my character :mrgreen:
WOW! Those drawings of the simpsons are great!
And I LOVE her tiara/headress thing. Its really nice!
Yes, Bonnie and Clyde are quite entertaining dogs! They kept running away from the wave whenever it came up the beach! Oh, and a really funny part of the trip, was when we had just set off, and my dad turned the radio on and it said "Bienvenue!" and my dad goes "We've got that far already?" and my mum yelled "DISNEYLAND JUST AROUND THE CORNER!!!"

And I agree the drawings of The Simpsons are awsome!! :mrgreen:
Unfortunately, my dad had the radio tuned into a French station (Goodness knows what for!) and we weren't in France...
Hey guys, just went throught the thread and the artwork here is just amazing! Can't wait to see more!!
And Laura, good idea with the tutorial thread. Makes it much easier to locate them. :D

Haha I'm that excited heres one already! :lol:
I love her, she looks so pretty! Is she one of your own characters? You should pitch her to Disney to be their next princess - she has that innocent, naive beauty about her :)
Quote from: "Snow_White_Girl"I love her, she looks so pretty! Is she one of your own characters? You should pitch her to Disney to be their next princess - she has that innocent, naive beauty about her :)
Aww yeah she is, and I'm writing a story around her too :) which is going well :mrgreen:
I'd love for Disney to make a film base a film round her and my story :D

That has always been a plan of mine to write something that they'd pick up and create... with me making the money for typing a few thousand words... and starring in it too as the voice of the Prince... with Possibly Miss Tisdale or Maybe Ms. Cyrus (who ever would win in a fight really) as the princess... But yet they'd need a soft singing voice.... so Tisdale Wins (withot the need for getting a black eye)... with Rees Witherspoon as the Mother... and James Earl Jones the Father... Just can't think of an actor to play the villain either male or female!

Question : Does the different coloured eyes relate to your story in some way ?

Aww cool!
I love Reese Witherspoon.
For the villain you could have someone like Jeremy Irons or Alan Rickman or maybe Tim Curry. Or a lady villain could be Glenn Close maybe... haha That's the only person I can think of!
Quote from: "Pete's Dragon"Question : Does the different coloured eyes relate to your story in some way ?
Yeah, she's meant to be really quite 'earthy' and her personality is devided, as she is grounded and level headed, but can easily become rapid and quick. So it's like one represents the earth and the other the water. It was just to show some sort of subtle conflict within her. :)
I really like your character too Laura. Have you tried drawing her different ways and playing a little with her characteristics? She's a little too pretty, if you know what I mean?
I've also always wanted to write a Disney story that they'd make into a movie. As I kid I actually wrote the base of a story and it just hist me that maybe I should finish it. It's about a kid who's been kidnapped by pirates. And her sidekick is a parrot. This idea was way before the PotC movie but it still might work anyway.
Maybe we should make a Disney Stories thread?
Btw guys, I'm sick AGAIN! Last time it was food poisoning and now I have a cold and a sore throat. I hate being in bed all the time. There's so much I want to do.

Aww yeah I have. I've got ones of random things from throughout my story.
Yeah I think I know what you mean. I wanted her to be really quite pretty as she's going to be in strong contrast to everyone in the story, as she's different to everyone else. I really must get back to writing the story I'm only 22pages in :shock: :(
I keep getting writers block though :x :shock: :(
I've drawn what my character would look like in more realistic ways too =]
Aww cool!
You should deffinately get back to it!
Maybe the thread would be a cool idea =]
I'm ill too!!
I'm not very happy I keep throwing up :( :( :(
So I'm going to bed after posting this lol

Your further than me... I have text to put into my story... and so far I have the description for all characters (Main) involved... some actual story dialog... just having the problems with names...
So far my story is 1625 WORDS! So Only 9000 short of a short story!
Sienna expect a PM with a Crazy Request... concerning my story... maybe it'll help me knock some more out!...

Aww I'm sure you'll get into it and propper speed off writing. Thats what I did, and I just realised I actually have 26 pages which is 15,436 words, which is only 8 chapters.
But if It were in a book, the pages would be smaller, by about half (A5 not A4) so I always end up doubling the pages...makes me feel better as then it's 52 pages haha!
I want my story to be really long :D
I'm looking out for the PM :) :lol:
Ooo and I'm currently working on a new drawing of my character =]
I'll post it when I've finished :mrgreen:
Rose coloured, but I don't know what to do about a background!
//http://little-cuddly-bear.deviantart.com/art/Rose-W-I-P-pt-2-96487834
Aww wow MinniesBestPal that rose is so beautiful!
I love the colour :D
I like roses that aren't always red, I think it's great that they are different :D
I really like white roses.
Heres a piece of work I've been working on today, as I haven't been able to draw as my thumb really needs to heal cause I'm fed up of it hurting and bleeding...so I decided to colour an image I drew a while ago.
Useing Photoshop CS2 I coloured the girl in and created the background.
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/SiennaIncomplete.jpg)
It's no where near completed yet though =]
Wow that rose i beautiful =D>
I really like your own characters Laura, they have just same quality that some of Walt Disney's characters and they especially remind me of Atlantis (don't know if it is intended or just in my eyes) They are amazing! :D

Aww thanks =]
Yeah my story has been inspired lightly by Atlantis, so it should reflect in the characters too. I liked the clothing styles of Atlantis and the whole Tribalness of it all too...and so that's what I've taken over into my own work. :)
Aww thank you!
That picture is really nice! I love the background!
Aww thanks!
The background took me about 30mins to do I was getting really stressed out! Thank goodness for Online tutorials though! lol :mrgreen: :lol:
This is such a cool thread!
I especially like Phoebe's rose and burntsienna's character.
Good job guys! Please keep posting!
Here's some of my little things:
(//http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y47/lolitasumomo/artwork/DutchessdrawingClassFall2005StillLi.jpg)
^my best drawing ever, as far as technical stuff goes.
(//http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y47/lolitasumomo/artwork/creativeselfportraitDutchessFall200.jpg)
^Class assignment-I had to make a self-portrait but basically in some sort of fantasy style to show some meaningful imagery about my personality/life. I would love to explain every little thing but not sure if anyone is interested so I don't want to waste the time...
I have more but don't want to give it all away up front hehe.
Wow great drawings!!!
:mrgreen: =D>
I'd love for you to explain about your Fantasy Self-portrait :D
Quote from: "burntsienna"Wow great drawings!!!
:mrgreen: =D>
I'd love for you to explain about your Fantasy Self-portrait :D
Well as long as someone requested it I don't feel like I'm being concieted or whatever. So here it is...The background, though not very well done, is supposed to be the aurora borealis, which I want to see someday, it's nothing more than that. The dress I am wearing is a Lolita-style dress which is really important to me, it's what I'm known for, and it's a particular dress which was my first real Loli dress and I have been known to wear probably too much...heh...
I am sitting on a mushroom because I love and identify with Alice in Wonderland...it is the book I have read the most times in my life, I always come back to it, no matter my age, and I have always loved many elements of those stories (Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass), the imagery, the characters, etc...
The cat is simply my pet cat Stinky but he is smiling like the Cheshire cat from Alice...
He is sitting on top of a cell from my first-ever hand-drawn animated (very short) film I made in school, which was about a bunny that fell in love with an Olive...
He is holding a mouse, which is a play on words, but also shows the significance of the computer in my life, since I was the first of my friends that I know of that had the internet, things like that...my Dad's a computr nerd so I caught onto that early as well :p
My doll is Keirsten, the American Girl doll (AGs are basically dolls based on fictional girls each set in a different time in American history and a different ethnicity) and she is the doll whose last name is the same as my mother's maiden name, she is from Sweden so I identify with her in that sense, and I love dolls, and she is dressed in a Girl Scout uniform, which is something I have been involved with my whole life.
If you look where my gaze is directed you can see some stars forming a Mickey silhouette and that is because I have always dreamed of-and am now just beginning to work towards-my goal of working for WDI!
That is basically everything. It is not incredibly complicated or deep but that's it, you have it there.

If you look where my gaze is directed you can see some stars forming a Mickey silhouette and that is because I have always dreamed of-and am now just beginning to work towards-my goal of working for WDI!
That is basically everything. It is not incredibly complicated or deep but that's it, you have it there.
<3
Wow that's amazing!
I'd love to see the Aurora Borealis too it's so beautiful!
It's really cool how you've put all of that into your drawing :mrgreen: =D>
I love it =]
Thank you.
I've been told off by a Pete Dragon for posting a non disney piece of artwork in the TV Topic (My defence there wasn't a topic for artwork back then)
So I have two... but will show one at a time

Here's a drawing I've just started tonight, it's going to be one in a series for my Dad and his wife for Christmas.
It's my step-bro Joe :)

As you can tell it's not finished yet though.

This drawings proving to be really quite difficult.
I'm taking one of my old teachers 'rulings' and I'm not smudging anything as she's always told me that 'its cheating' so...theres no 'cheating' on this one. Which is making it harder as I like working with a mechanical pencil, as it has a finer point and so...it's taking me really quite a long time to shade in areas, being really careful of the pressure etc so that it all blends well.
Heres where I've been working on this image...
Its a photo but shoes the ref pic along with the drawing =]

OH MY GOSH! A PIGGY SKETCHBOOK! I USE THOSE!
I love Pink Pig sketchbooks! There paper quality is brilliant!
The one I'm using at the moment is classed as a Fat Pig sketchbook! haha
Cause they do different ones like the Classic Pig etc. Basically just means my sketchbook has the same amount of pages as 2 books but in 1 =]
Cool!

I haven't been able to draw for a while now...like a good few days.
I've had very little time, but I'd also not had time to scan that picture in so I managed to fit it in today whilst doing my Uni work.
For some reason I just can't get into the mood to draw at the moment. :(
Laura, your drawing is simply amazing!! I wish i could draw like that!
Its beautiful

Well done MBP, that's a great picture :) =D>
I've finally found some time and inspiration to draw again!
Its a pretty bad image at the moment, I'm not happy with it at all, but its just the basics at the moment. Hopefully after adding detail and other shading it will look more realistic and actually good :lol:
Also because its just a faint starting outline, I've had to darken it quite a lot, so that the lines are actually visible.
So here we go...
I'm hoping to finish it sometime tomorrow/Tuesday

Who Is It?

That looks like a Cracking Self Portrait... and Makes Gods Work Look Dazzling!

Possibly her hair? and possibly even her eyebrows...which is still hair I guess :lol:
Well at least the Captain and myself guessed the image correctly, that's the main thing. Even though one of us thinks you have a resemblance of a gypsy.. :lol: :mrgreen:

Yes, I've got no problem at all in working for you Captain Pan, it would be a pleasure.........Especially in that job position.. :wink: :mrgreen:
Right my last update on the drawing before bed :D
She looks a little bit like a Panda because only her eyes are shaded :lol: Either that or just she needs a great deal of sleep!
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/AbitPandary.jpg)
Very good indeed, what pencil did you use for the initial sketching [HB/F] :?:
Also which 'B' pencils did you use for the more formal outline around the eyes and the shading.. :)
Quote from: "Javey74"Very good indeed, what pencil did you use for the initial sketching [HB/F] ? Also which 'B' pencils did you use for the more formal outline and shading.. :)
I'm just using a HB pencil for it all, and using different pressures and layers to build up the shadows. I used to use a range of pencils until I lost them lol! now I quite like just using the one shade and being able to create the rest with pressure etc.
Its also a mechanical pencil I'm using, which means its a very tiny piece of graphite :mrgreen:
Mmmmm, interesting in the use of pressure with just the one pencil. :wink: :D
I recently bought a set which I've been trying out, they contain the following: 4H, 2H, H, HB, F, B, 2B, 3B, 4B, 5B, 6B, 8B. beyond 8B I'd be definitely on charcoal sticks.. :lol: :D
Really good sketching set after trying them I must say.. :)

Cool! when I had my set I used to mainly use, 3H, HB, 2B, 4B and 6B
I've really missed drawing and I can't wait to go to bed have some nice dreams and then start to draw and write again oooo and possibly read :mrgreen:

See I can only use HB, did do Technical Drawing, and then I could only Use the various grading of H or suffer a hair drying treatment from the teacher who would promptly take your pencil away and force you to use one of his small overly sharpened pencils that lasted a further 6 Seconds when you apply pressure!
Now good Sir we want Art Work, the host needs to supply his own gallery with Iconic Works!
Laura the Shading looks Great so far... Got to wait and see the puzzle complete itself! Nice to see you starting the shading with the most important part of any character... The Eyes! In My opinion the eyes of a piece of work tell the story for the entire piece, along with holding the Soul of the Subject, and if done correctly hold part of the Artists Soul within it!
That's an amazing picture Laura, I'm very impressed. Well done so far and good luck with the rest =D> =D> =D>
Heres some more done today, still needs touching up but its getting there. I'm feeling happier with it now than what I was when I first started...as theres a clear difference lol

Aww I'm glad you did some drawing today :mrgreen:
I think I'm going to finish my drawing tomorrow, as its just the hair left to go, and I have been neglecting my story editing. Although I am tempted to also do some clothing and hair designs for this story...hmmm I'd best get to writing I think. :mrgreen:

I think its strange that at the start of it the eyes look really dark, and then the skin looks really dark, but when its all done and balanced out it looks paler :D
That drawing is absolutely terrific - blew me away! =D>
The GIFs are great and I agree that it does look like something coming to life - "It's ALIVE!!" (Just with a much more beautiful outcome than with Mr. Frankenstein :lol:)

Quote from: "SophieD"i love seeing the stages of your drawing!
How do you make these gif things????
When you open the stages in Photoshop and make them all on the same file thing...like with the layers. then you open it in ImageReady, which is in the File section thing. Then you can edit the animation by adding a new frame on the animation timeline thing, and then altering the opacity of the image and so on. =]
Turned the back on Disney drawings for a second to draw Po from DreamWorks' Kung Fu Panda:

Me and a friend of mine talked about the many penguins in animated movies the last couple of years and mainly how cute and cuddly they are, so we decided that I should make a tribute to these cute creatures, who seem to bring succes to every animation studio, who use them (wow, that was a long explanation :lol:)

Thank you! I worked really hard on it! It was my first drawing of the year and I was determined to improve!
Wow Penguins! I love them!
I went through a phase earlier this year haha they're so cute I love them! So you've just rekindled my want of a pet Penguin!
Ooo and theres a film called The Pebble and the Penguin! lol Its one of my favourite films!
Eee Minniesbestpal I love it!
I saw it earlier today on Deviant art its amazing! the colouring is so cool! :mrgreen:
Thank you!
You could've put march of the penguins in there too, although its not an animation, but it means all the more penguins!
I prefer polar bears though, although they aren't used in animation much. Still they get coca cola!
Yay - a Pet Penguin would be fantastic - Mumble in Happy Feet is just so cute when he is little! :lol:
I have just finished a quick drawing of the hilarious Chicken Joe from Surf's Up - I will be posting it tomorrow.

Aww yeah polar bears are soo cute, I just got a From Me To You polar bear little friend thingy haha :mrgreen:
I started a new drawing today so I should hopefully have it scanned and posted tomorrow, at some point. Step by step again as It will take me quite a while this one i think.
Great art work Nicolai and MBP, they all look brilliant. Thanks for sharing them with us :)
When I was doing the penguin tribute last night, I also did a quick drawing of the extremely funny Chicken Joe from Surf's Up:

Aahhh, great drawing there MinniesBestPal, so does that mean I can use this picture as
'you' for the 'Art of Animation at Home' - The Artist, galleries.. :mrgreen:

Ok! :lol:
Quote from: "MinniesBestPal"Ok! :lol:
Righty O, but you'll need to put a comment on with it about yourself... :mrgreen: You don't get away that easy... :lol: :lol: :mrgreen:
I'll upload it now.. :wink: :D
I started this drawing about 2 hours ago now...but have been forgetting to post it.
So I'm just going to post all the scans so far and get everyone up todate :D

It's always amazing to me watching those drawings build up, bit by bit... :wink: :D
Keep up the good work Laura.. =D>
Aww thanks :mrgreen: :oops: :mrgreen:
The next scan will be soon I think, as I'm working on one of the cheeks now =]
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/Step5.jpg)
step 5 :lol:
Now if you left it like that Laura, it could be a birthmark... :mrgreen:
OOooo it could!
I'm onto the lips now :mrgreen:
Ahhh, the lips.. :) The 3rd most looked at feature on a face.. :wink:
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/Step6.jpg)
Neeeexxxxt one =]
Eeeeee, you can even see the fine creases of the skin on the lips... :mrgreen:
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/Step7.jpg)
Step 7 and I'm sooooo tired right now, I was really hoping to finish this before I go to bed, but I don't think the quality will be good if I push it too much. So I'm hoping to finish the skin so I've just got the hair to do tomorrow =]
Last one before bed, though I haven't finished the skin which I'm not happy about. But I could see how badly the next was going, and the fact that it took me an hour to do...I decided to stop after that.
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/Step8.jpg)
I've just worked out that, the drawing so far has taken me over 6hours... :shock:
:shock: WOW! Thats amazing! I'm not suprised it took you 6 hours!
Hehe Thanks :mrgreen:
I've just spent another hour this morning working on the drawing. Not much has changed for an hour, but the forehead is the worst part I think.

WOW Laura :shock: That is fantastic =D>

Don't lie Laura, the forehead is great, just as every other part of it is :mrgreen:

Don't lie Laura, the forehead is great, just as every other part of it is :mrgreen:
Lol thanks, but it is the worst part, and the hardest to do because theres not much shading to do, its mainly the same tone in the middle and its hard to do the same tone as the pressure is very light.
I'm going to try and finish it tonight after the photoshoot :mrgreen:
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/TooAnnoyedToContinue.jpg)
I got faaar to annoyed with the hair to continue so I've left it... :shock: :x :shock:
Wow! Truly amazing, very well done =D>
The hair at present reminds me of Cruella Deville, it's definitely the shade, it's only the style that's wrong.. :D
Laura as per usual its fantastic... and for that I'm starting to turn green with envy...
You are the person for human sketches mine turn out like cartoons or extremely pants!
as Barrowman would say;
fantastic Fantastic FANTASTIC

I dare say Pot calling the Kettle Black there miss Sienna!
I know I'm critical of myself... and to this day (I actually did it this morning) I still kick myself over my stupid decision to take Graphics not Art for GCSE! But If I wasn't as self critical then I wouldn't strive to succeed and improve... and I dare say some of my firends wouldn't like me as much :oops: !

:mrgreen:
Theres no point kicking yourself about taking Graphics and not Art, because its done with now. And you don't need an Art qualification to be a great artist :mrgreen:
It is simply amazing as always Laura... I almost don't want to post a simple character drawing after such brilliance, but I have started an A3 collection of Kung Fu Panda Characters of course starting with Jack Black's Po:

Thanks so much guys :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Here's a slight update
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/New2.jpg)
I love your work burntsienna :D.
I just came across to things I did for art when I was at school...which I failed haha but they're sort of reflective of me as I was then and I'm not a good artist never have been doubt I ever will be haha.
(//http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd216/JarethDrakul1334/wolfhowling.jpg)
(A Wolf I did that my friend was sure was a fox instead...it even has my old name name at the bottom :shock:).
(//http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd216/JarethDrakul1334/mydragon2.jpg)
(And a Dragon, which now looking at it could have done with shading it and I don't own the original version so I only have this inverted colour version).
Aww wow!! I love them specially the wolfs mouth/nose =]
And you can totally tell its a wolf!
I'm happy you shared them with us :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Heres another update - And if anyone recognises the pose its because I've referanced this one from a c.d cover, which I couldn't actually find a decide sized picture of =]
But I loved the way the hair was :mrgreen: Though I've actually changed it slightly the pose was just too good not to recreate :lol:
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/New3.jpg)
Great work JarethDrakul, thanks for sharing it with us :)
Laura, your picture is coming along very well, keep it up :wink:
aaw thank you :D Its a shame I just gave up with drawing (I think the last time I ever intentionally went and drew something was....early 2007). I might one day take it up again...

Then we'd get to see more of your work! :mrgreen: :D/ :mrgreen:
I like your Wolf and Dragon JarethDrakul! Especially the Dragon!!

JarethDrakul: Your drawings are very good - I really like the wolf =D> You should start drawing again, just I should and will...
Laura, what can I say... Once again you do the impossible and you have outdone yourself with an even more beautiful and impressing drawing than the previous ones. Simply amazing =D> :D/

Another update...I have sooo much more to do :(

Laura, you will be needing a large room for all these masterpieces.. :mrgreen:
Quote from: "Javey74"Laura, you will be needing a large room for all these masterpieces.. :mrgreen:
I think They Call Rooms Like that a Gallery...
Come on now laura lets start getting an exhibition sorted out... Gives Us UK members (and those across the seas) a place to meet up outside of DLRP :D
As per usual Laura the pictures are Perfect... And As usual I am green with Envy at your masterpieces!

Awww thank you both :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Might be a while before I get myself a gallery :lol:
But I'd love to own a gallery/shop/cafe!
Although you're all welcome to come to the Degree Show in about 2 years :lol:
And if I win a competition I've entered I could get a photograph on a book!
And if I just get picked as a finalist for another I get to be part of an exhibition in London.
And I've been contacted by someone in Australia to do illustrations for her book...so there could be many a way to spy me :lol: :lol: :lol:
But I think we need to meet up at some point for sure! Possibly during the summer when us studants are off and if we did it at a weekend then it would be good for the workers :mrgreen:
I can't look at this drawing anymore. Its making my head spin .
I keep asking myself 'how'd see get the hair sooo perfect?' , how'd she do those eyes?' and 'how do you shade like that?'
As I cant comprehend the answer to any of these questions, it makes my head go Kcfoidhvoisdoancdowohoiaaaaa!!!!!
What's the english term for when you experience to conflicting emotions at once, cause that's what I've got. Spellbound by the level of artist skill on show, and Extreme envy cause I couldn't do it myself :wink:

The hair is quite simple but annoyingly repetative. You basically go from the top starter point and swipe outwards gently with the pencil then you do it from the base starter point and meet somewhat in the middle or where ever you want the shine to appear. Then you go over it another 2 times with increasing pressure to create darker strands of hair, making sure you leave certain areas the shade you did before for the shine :)
Then with the eyes its mainly the shading that does that. The shading is pretty similar to the hair, but instead of lines its lots and lots of continuous connective circles with different pressures and different layers to create the shadows etc. The shading can be quite annoying because I don't allow myself to smudge/blend with my finger, everything has to be done by pressure and layers :lol: So when it comes to a part like the shoulder its very annoying because I need a continous shade and getting that's quite difficult. Thats why the faces are the most fun to do :mrgreen:
I hope that makes it a little less Kcfoidhvoisdoancdowohoiaaaaa, in your head Pete's Dragon :lol: :lol: :lol:
aaahhhhh I seee....... I think I'll stick to my building with all their nice straight lines :)

Gonna post this here, cause technically it's a form of artwork :?

Simply amazing development on the piece of art there Laura =D> I agree, get a gallery!
Your little movie just made me laugh PD - great fun :lol:
PD, that is awesome! :lol:
PD I love it!
I saw it on your Facebook too last night it made me chuckle and then my mum thought i was strange :mrgreen: :roll: :lol:
I am baffled as to how its done :D
Its quite easy when you know how.
1) Filmed myself setting the cup down, then walk off screen. Letting the camera run, I walked around, sat down and waited for a few seconds and then lifted the cup up again.
2)Loaded the video onto the computer. Using Windows MovieMaker I cut the video into Parts A + B (A: setting down the cup. B: lifting it up)
3)Loaded Part A over the top of Part B. And here's were it gets technical....
4) On Part B, you select the bits you DONT want see. Beacuse there is another layer beneath (Part A), it replaces the blanked out bits with the other video. So the cup is sitting on the table the whole time, but there's a big square on the top of it blocking it from being seen.
5) When the cup is set down in Part A, the square is removed from Part B. The square is then placed over Part A (so when the cup is lifted, it doesnt appear on the table too).
That's as best as I can explain it without diagrams + pictures. Hope you can get your head around it :) .
I'm now trying to figure out how I can throw a ball to myself :?
Wow I'm still confused lol :)
could you throw the ball one way then throw it the other but reverse that one so it goes backwards?
Quote from: "burntsienna"Wow I'm still confused lol :)
could you throw the ball one way then throw it the other but reverse that one so it goes backwards?
Sadly cant reverse the film ( I think ). The best I can come up with is I film myself throwing the ball, then get Jasmine to throw the ball to me. Put them together and erase Jasmine. The only problem is matching the trajectory of the ball on both parts
Quote from: "Pete's Dragon"Sadly cant reverse the film ( I think ). The best I can come up with is I film myself throwing the ball, then get Jasmine to throw the ball to me. Put them together and erase Jasmine. The only problem is matching the trajectory of the ball on both parts
Yeah good point, but couldn't you only show the ball from Jasmine's throw as it reaches your hands, because you could throw to her at first, then have markers on the floor so you both can just swap places, then the ball is going to go in a similar way, aslong as you both use the same sort of pass too maybe?
Or, if I had some proper animation software I wouldn't even need a real ball (sadly I dont). Could draw the ball, apply a texture to it etc. (too much work)
Lol, that would look really funny if the neighbours saw us. Jasmine on the left flapping her arm up in a throwing motion, and me catching the imaginary ball. Then swapping round. 5mins later the Social Health Van would probably arrive

You'd need 3d Studio Max or something like that for the ball I think. I've used it before it makes digital 3d objects and you can txture them etc :)
You should just try it anyway haha!
I would love to see more of these little movies - they are very funny :lol:
When we are talking about movies I have just uploaded my trip dvd to my trip report, and I would love your comments being so creative as you are :wink:
Today I began the work on my sister's wedding present. My mom and dad are giving them a trip to London, so I am giving them "A Musical Experience" as I call it. Basically it is just a gift card now worth two theatre tickets on their trip to London.
I am doing this giftcard in Photoshop as a selftought photoshop amateur, but I will be posting the progress on here anyway. The work of the first day:

Very nice Nicolai, and what a wonderful gift too :)
Nicolai... Great Progress... It's visually stunning... But there is one Small Problem...
The Joseph and his Amazing Technicoloured Dreamcoat picture is now the Old one... The Actor who played/won the role Lee Meed has been replaced by 2001 Pop Idol runner-up and the man who Gave Lilo and Stitch "Suspicious Minds" in the Uk... G... G... Gar... Gareth G... G... Gareth Gates
There is another Musical you could pop on there... Oliver... It "currently" has 'I'd Do Anything" winner Jodie Something or other as Nancy... and Mr Bean himself Rowan Atkinson as Fagin
There are some more... but I can't think of them right now
Thanks for the comments and suggestions guys - they are appreciated.
I still have a lot of shows to include, so it will be way more "filled" - the only ones that are absolutely done is Dirty Dancing, Avenue Q, Billy Elliot and Spring Awakening - the others might still be edited or added to.
Today's Progress:
(//http://i325.photobucket.com/albums/k377/forza_united/AMusicalExperiencecopy-1.png)
Thats really good Nicolai!! I'm glad you have put the two best shows on your picture...Les Miserable and We Will Rock You :lol: :lol: :D :D
I love it Nicolai! Specially the Phantom of the Opera dedication! :mrgreen:
It's my all time favourite musical! :D/
=D> =D> =D>
Oooo and I really loved watching your vids you posted!
Made me disney envious! :lol: :roll: :mrgreen:
Thank you very much Sophie and Laura - I really appreciate it. Unfortunately I haven't seen enough of these musicals in London. Actually out of these I have just seen WWRY and Lion King in London. I have however watched Grease, Les Miserables, Phantom in Denmark and Hairspray, Mamma Mia and of course Billy Elliot as movies.
Quote from: "burntsienna"Oooo and I really loved watching your vids you posted!
Made me disney envious! :lol: :roll: :mrgreen:
I am so glad you liked them - they were partially made for me and my family and partially for you guys on here :wink:
Now all the musicals are finished - do you miss any?
I still have to do some lightning effects though before this is done, but here is today's progress:
Should it be with or without the little lens flare in the middle?

Its strange as its only like 3hours work there...even less than normal...by quite a long time.
Love the slight facial hair on this one Laura, but I'm not sure if there is a touch too much shading on his right cheek.. :o
[I'm not an expert in this field at all as you well know, so strike me down if I'm wrong, but I also thought it would make a change putting something critical about your work].. :mrgreen:

Lol yeah the rights abit dark, but I still need to make the left darker as theres a huge gaping bit of light shading which needs going over =]
I like the fact that you pointed that out though :mrgreen:

Well as today was my final hand in I decided to do some drawing =]
It took me two hours to do this....
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/3530858785_5635279456.jpg)
Well...I'd done a little more - like both of the eyes were fully shaded! and so yeah 2 hours to draw the outline and do the eyes...[its A3 so I can get more detail]
Then...Chilli scratches it! and its unsaveable :cry: :cry: :cry:
Sooo...I have to start again
And heres the outcome...
I'm not as please with it as the other one...but I can't really fix that because nothing would be as good as the first =[
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/3531302887_15f740d4eb.jpg)
Very impressive stuff Laura, welcome back to the world of drawing :mrgreen:
Quote from: "The Butlin Boy"Very impressive stuff Laura, welcome back to the world of drawing :mrgreen:
Thanks :mrgreen:

Update
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/3532353974_bfa1b47af3.jpg)
Sorry for the darkness but I'm having to photograph it and the room isn't very bright and flash would just look terrible :lol:
Brilliant work, Laura! Absolutely impressive =D>
Quote from: "forza_united"Brilliant work, Laura! Absolutely impressive =D>
Aww thanks :mrgreen:
Its the first time I've tried to draw A3 while using this technique :mrgreen: ...well other than the first one which got ruined :lol:
Update - with better lighting =]
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/d-2.jpg)
Your drawings never cease to amaze me Laura, well done =D>
Quote from: "The Butlin Boy"Your drawings never cease to amaze me Laura, well done =D>
Aww thanks :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Its taking me even longer than normal to do this drawing because I'm still doing the small scaled details as I would on an A4 piece :lol:
And I'm doing more details...
Plus because I refuse to smudge my work to blend it and use pressure of the pencil my hand cramped about 5 times :lol: :lol: :lol: Other wise there'd be more done 8)
New Update =]
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/d-2copy.jpg)
Neeeew update :lol:

Another update =]

Wow, it's really coming along now. Keep up the good work Laura :)
Quote from: "The Butlin Boy"Wow, it's really coming along now. Keep up the good work Laura :)
Thanks :mrgreen:
I'm hoping to get it finished today, though it depends on whether I decide to do the background or not - Though I think I will as it'll be the first one with a background :)
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/WIP3.jpg)
I think I'm going to give up now for a while...my hand hurts too much and I'm getting a little fed up with this drawing :lol:
Well overall, I think it's fantastic, I especially like the mirror effect :)
Don't overdo it if you don't want to Laura, if you do you'll stop enjoying it :(
Well done once again =D>

Aww thanks =]
Yeah I wanted the reflection to be slightly distorted as its meant to be in water but its my first time trying :lol:
I'll probably continue it tomorrow or thursday and hopefully finish it by the end of the week :mrgreen:
Its just it takes sooo long to do a little part it can get quite stressful when things go wrong because of the slightest change in the direction of the pencil or pressure :( :lol:
Right as I'm having difficulty with the first drawing - as I'm not sure of the angle to draw the hair in the water...and how to draw it under the water...I decided to start a new drawing lol :lol:
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/WIP4.jpg)
I've totally had drawing block...lol not sure its that possible to get when all I want to do is finish the 2 A3 drawings...but I've just not been inspired to draw at all until today...though it was more out of boredem and writers block :lol:
So heres another update
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/WIP5.jpg)
Once again your work amazes me and makes me envious of your drawings skills - BRAVO :D/ =D>
Quote from: "forza_united"Once again your work amazes me and makes me envious of your drawings skills - BRAVO :D/ =D>
Thanks :mrgreen: the shading still needs tidying up before I do the hair, and I need to finish the shoulder but I'm somewhat happy with it...though I think the lips could have been better :lol:
I'm making an attempt at a full body shot! :shock:
Kinda...its got the whole body in, apart from 1 knee lol
I'm not sure how happy I am with it though at the moment.

It amazes me how you shading work makes the drawing come to life - it's amazing! :shock:
QuoteI'm not sure how happy I am with it though at the moment.
Well you should be because it is very impressive at the minute :mrgreen:
Good luck with the rest of it :)

My drawings always look really bad before I do any shading, then some just don't improve much lol! :lol:

Aw thanks, I just think I need to get more done...and I'm not sure if I like her top or her shoes..hmm :-k
I haven't drawn in quite a while, let alone done a cartoon! =]
So here's a new one ...
It's nooooo where near finished yet :mrgreen:
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/New-2.jpg)
Update =]
Now I'm going to photocopy it so I can work on top with fine liner as I'm too scared to do it with this one :lol:
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/Untitled-2-2.jpg)
WOW!! That's GORGEOUS!! Can't wait 'till it's finished!!
Wow Laura, I can't wait to see what this looks like when you're finally finished :)
There we go =]
I'm relatively happy with it as I haven't done stuff like this in aaages :lol:
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/NewFineliner.jpg)
Fantastic!!! How did you learn to draw like that? You really need to digitalize your work, add some color and finish, and create a portfolio! You're too good to just share your stuff here with us. I love her lips and nose as well as her hands. I cannot (!!!!!) draw hands AT ALL!!! They make no sense to me.

I used to be a huuuuge fan of Anime and Manga and have about 14 how do draw Manga books upstairs, then I love Disney too...so I kinda think its a blend of the 2 styles. Or at least that's what makes sense to me with it.
The long slender stuff I've seen in a few Japanese programs etc along with the big eyes. but then I love Disney's way of drawing soft curved noses etc =] and making the figures still curvy. I think thats it lol!
I'd love to digitalize my work but...I'm not very good with photoshop what so ever and don't have a drawing tablet so I'd most certainly suck more so :lol: :lol: :lol:
I'm actually starting to like drawing hands! lol I hated them and still do sometimes I guess but I'm starting to like them more. :mrgreen:
This isn't exactly art work in the way the others were...its a dress design for future artwork! lol :lol:
I've been working on my story as many people know, and because of this I've been researching [collecting images] clothes etc, so I've been designing the clothes for the characters in the story =]
Clearly I'm not a fashion designer... :lol: but it works for the job its been created.
This one is actually something I've done for the second book...which hasn't actually been written yet! But I have all the plans ready :lol:
Contrary to how it looks, the main fabric of the dress...won't be see through lol!

Think I prefer the black and white version though. :lol:
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/Coloured.jpg)

Well you certainly deserve a place in any artistic job! After I see your drawings I just want to run and pick up a pencil and start drawing! I think it's amazing how you can just draw something from the top of your head, I couldn't do that!

Do you mean the pic a couple of pages back? It wasn't specifically meant to be Angelina, but I can certainly see the resemblance...think its the lips :lol:
As mentioned on my 4000th post thread...here's my new drawing work in progress

Sorry for the bad photo, but the lightings not very good in the room so I had to change the settings and just changed the shutter speed for ease.
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/Rhothaen2.jpg)

Thanks Nicolai!
Well with a rather achy hand...I've finished the drawing :mrgreen:

Well, every praise you receive for this drawings is absolutely well deserved, Laura! It is amazing =D>
I don't believe your skills in drawing humans will cease to impress me!
Wow he's hot!!! Could you draw a Cullen??? Not an actor PORTRAYING a Cullen, but a Cullen as you imagine them when you read the book? Or just draw Robert haha. Or OR OOOOR, could you do a picture of the Comedian? Where he's not wearing a shirt haha.

I'll start with Cullen how I'd imagined him, then I'll attempt the Comedian :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
And I'm glad you think he's hot! lol he's meant to be rather attractive, but then again I didn't know whether other people would think so as its sort of my idea of attractiveness lol
LOL, Laura your picture seems to have over time morphed from Gaston, into Johnny Depp, and then into Will Turner for POTC :lol: It's still very good though, so well done =D>

I'll do Edward soon :mrgreen:
I'm sure you're not though, everyones good at drawing, =]
And I must agree that Peter Facinelli is rather delightful! =]
Well I started Edward the other day, and haven't posted him because he really looks a state at the moment, then since then I've had very little time to do any work on him because of one thing or another :(
So I don't think he'll be done by the time you leave Honey =[
But Edward and the other you requested will be most certainly done by the time you're back! I'll make sure of it! :)

Batman Arkham Asylum was launched today in the US and will be in Europe on Friday... From playing the Playstation 3 Demo, I found this in the form of Character Pictures on the games website!
(//http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n286/WelshWing/JokernonDisney.jpg)
Hmmm I'm not sure this can be classified as artwork but I'll put it here anyway! One of my other hobbies (besides drawing) is cross stitching. Well, tonight is a momentous occasion - I have finally finished my biggest project to date, that has been ongoing for almost 7 years :D/
(//http://c1.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/37/l_2b95e428e6924addbbd46d12fd107b1c.jpg)
(Sorry about the blurred pic, I have a rubbish camera!) It does need washing though as the fabric is stained a little at the top :( I usually only do a little bit at a time of these as it's so painstaking and a killer for the eyes, but yesterday I saw the light at the end of the tunnel with this one and so I've been stitching for pretty much two days straight! :shock: My head hurts so badly now but the end result is worth it, the picture doesn't really do it justice! :)
OMG!!! I love it!! I so want to learn how to do that! Is it difficult? And can you make your own designs or is that too hard? I really love it!! If you ever decide to take commissions let me know! I'd love a custom one to hang on my wall! I'm really in awe over you right now!!
Well, I originally went to this thread to post a bit of a drawing to get some critical feedback. Here it is. Lay it on me.

Well, here's another piece I thought I'd just add. It's Twilight/New Moon fanart... It's all about Bella's desires, dreams and fears but I wont go into any details as I don't want this to be a spoiler.
EDIT: Just remembered the spoiler function. Here's what the picture means: [spoiler:1fnkn7yg]The right half of Bella's face represents the human part, the part that can grow old and die, whiter away. The other half is the cold pristine vampire half, the part she longs for the most. The red lines represent the surface cracking, her dreams turning to dust as Edward leaves her and everything she desires vanishes. Well, that's it I suppose. I'm a nerd![/spoiler:1fnkn7yg]

Aww thanks :oops: It's not hard to learn to do as such, you just have to have a lot of patience and be able to follow a pattern! I do know people who make their own designs, I'm not quite that good yet though! Someday I hope to be...! I've just started my latest project, which is.... a Disney one!! Hopefully it won't take 7 years to complete this time!

I think I make a good Na'Vi. Must give Mr. Cameron a call, see if there's any openings for the sequel
^ This is awesome, very impressive!
Ooooooh! Pete's Dragon! thats amazing! I really wanted one of me so I was searching the internet to see if there was a simple way of doing it lol!

Wow. Amazing drawings. They're like real people trying escape from the paper :-) Excellent work.
Thanks!
I've got about 4 others on the go at the moment too. I'm trying to get at least 1 portrait of every character from my Trilogy done.
Wow - it is great to have you back here Laura. Your artwork has been missed and once again it seems to become amazing - I cannot wait to see the future updates from you :D/

Aw thank you!
I'm glad to be back! It's been so long. Too long.

I started this drawing today, I didn't intend for Sienna to look sad but as the drawing progressed she just started to look it. So now I'm just going with it. :lol:
Update.

There's a closer, cropped version on my Flickr.
I've finally finished the drawing I've been working on (well one of the drawings I've been working on)

Close up

This drawing is actually A3 and it took me a while to get the shading done because her back was a lot of bare skin with little shadow on it. So the way in which I shade my work was made 10 times harder because I was having to be very careful about the change in pressure and general movement. :lol:
Great shadows! Keep posting updates, the details are amazing! :D
Quote from: "JelleP"Great shadows! Keep posting updates, the details are amazing! :D
Thanks! :mrgreen:
I decided to start a new drawing yesterday I believe it was :lol:
Here's a few shots =]

I've not been on here for some time, which isn't what I wanted. I wanted to be able to come back to the forum more regularly. But because I've set myself deadlines for certain projects I'm finding it hard to come here much as I like to sit back and read things which takes more time.
Sooo, lately I've been dabbling in digital painting for the front of my first book which I'm going to get printed myself just so I have a hard copy of it. I'm self taught with the digital painting and am just tackling it as it comes.
Here's a Work in progress shot of the book cover.
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/forum-2.jpg)
It still needs A LOT of work but it's slowly getting there :lol:
Ooo and with this, as its my first time really trying it with a graphics tablet..I used a reference of a photo of Megan Fox.
Wow, that's amazing :thumbs:
I got a Wacom Bamboo tablet for Christmas, so I've been trying a lot of digital art lately too. I've also been trying to draw more realistic things for a change:
(//http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/2435/emilieautumng.jpg)
A portrait I did of Emilie Autumn (I'm not sure if anyone's heard of her?)
Ooo thats the tablet I have, I think. The white one? I know there's a few in the Bamboo range.
I love the drawing! You've really progressed since the last work I saw you post. :thumbs: :mrgreen: =D> You're even better now!
It looks very good MPL - as Laura says you have become even better.. Keep up the work and please share it with us :D
oh wow =] the drawings in this thread are awsome =] i love that theres a non disney artowrk thread, i dont really do disney drawings except for a random drawing if mickey mouse i have on my wall, i tend to draw anime more to be honest, i draw digitally with the touch pad mouse on my laptop using jasic paintshop pro 8 =] and occasionally i use my graphics tablet, depending on what im drawing.
so heres my two cents, i will up load a picure i am working on as i go along =]
this is a picture of a set of twins called Kaoru and Hikaru from an anime called Ouran High School Host Club
(//http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t116/manic-the-hedgehog/twinsWIPcomp.jpg)
i love this picture most of all the ones i have done.... im not sure about their pose, but after about 3-4 hours of drawing i didnt care any more and doubted very much i would be able to do their eyes that good again =] and i did the shading on hikaru's shirt a little too heavy... =]
Quote from: "MinniesBestPal"A portrait I did of Emilie Autumn (I'm not sure if anyone's heard of her?)
i've heard of her =] its an awsome picture =]
*squeal* HIKARU AND KAORU XD
Yes I love OHSHC :3 I draw a lot of anime myself, though I wasn't sure if many people on this forum liked it
Quote from: "burntsienna"Ooo thats the tablet I have, I think. The white one? I know there's a few in the Bamboo range.

Thank you. Yeah, thats the white one, with the circle in the middle and the four buttons at the top? I haven't seen the other bamboos, so I don't know.

well you have one person who likes it and would love to see your artowrk =]
you have an avid anime fan who draws art work, watches anime, cosplays and reads and writes more fanfiction than is probably healthy =]

I've seen some black ones of it too, but its the white one that I use too! It's so much fun :mrgreen:
Oooo! SwipatronSparks I love it! I can't wait to see more :mrgreen:
I started another new digital painting! I have about 6 WIP now.
This was it as I left it yesterday afternoon.
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/Untitled-2-5.jpg)
Then I worked for it for an hour or so this morning and here's the close up of the face.
(//http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c191/mess_333/Untitled-2b.jpg)
heres my latest doodle =] again the twins =] this one is a WIP i will post pics of this one as i goes =]

Decided to have a go at doing something on photoshop. I did the sketch on paper, scanned it in, and am currently working on outlining it at the moment :D Here's the sketch, it's myself if I were a game/roleplay/whatever character XD This is how I would look, and my weapon would be a scythe :3
(//http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/2845/scythewarriorphoe.jpg)
heres a doodle i did into my note book for uni ^^' its allen walker and timcampy (the thing that looks like a snitch on his head) a gollum, from D.Gray Man =]
(//http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t116/manic-the-hedgehog/Photo015.jpg)
seriously guys, how do you draw like that!! :O
im actually soo jelous.
There's some really good work on here. Burntsienna, you're portraits are awesome. I was just scanning through some of my sketchbooks and thought I'd upload some stuff. The first ones are tattoos that I have designed for myself. I'm just waiting for my apprentice to get better then I'll let him tattoo them onto me. I'd do it myself but I want them on the side of my calf and can't sit down in a comfortable enough position to tattoo them.
This is Our Lady of Guadalupe. I didn't want it in the traditional style, so I did my own. It needs a bit of cleaning up before putting it to skin.
(//http://i1142.photobucket.com/albums/n614/inkredible_tattoo/img114.jpg)
This is a tattoo machine that I drew when I got a bit bored in the shop one day.
(//http://i1142.photobucket.com/albums/n614/inkredible_tattoo/img115.jpg)
I designed the cupcake for my wife but I've yet to tattoo that on her yet.
(//http://i1142.photobucket.com/albums/n614/inkredible_tattoo/img116.jpg)
The turtle is just something I drew one night when there was nothing on TV.
(//http://i1142.photobucket.com/albums/n614/inkredible_tattoo/img117.jpg)
I love that little turtle :P
I haven't drawn in months, but I think this is the last one i've drawn since then :P
(//http://i52.tinypic.com/11cdseg.jpg)
Cheers. I love what you've drawn. Would be quite cool to do that as a tattoo as it's a bit mad. I finally got the tattoo machine above done on my leg on thursday.
Haha thanks,
That's awsome...
I didn't even read that you were a tattoo artist :lol:
:bump:
its been so long since anything was posted in here i thought i would liven it up a little, here's my latest sorry its not showing up very well..... i have just done the first line clean up on the drawing to go over it in pen)
character is called Kagami from Lucky Star =]
(//http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t116/manic-the-hedgehog/SAM_0672-1.jpg)
edit. i didnt realise how badly it was showing up until i uploaded it on here.... i will get a better pic up soon
not by best drawing (i hate his feet and his hair i think they look stupid), but i havnt done any for quite a while, trying to get back into it a little bit, so to start myself off i did this quick chibified sketch of Castiel....
(http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t116/manic-the-hedgehog/59ea6fad-21f4-4404-945d-9c19e6691877_zpscb134dfb.jpg)
