#38 - Irony, part 2

I could have a comment, but I'll just say:

#37 - You have wings to fly

Born of a discussion between a good friend and I. I needed to get the idea out of my head.

Hopefully, once I got my 16GB of RAM, I'll be less limited. I would've loved to expand further on it, but I notice I get scared that my brush will lag, so I don't dare try as much as I could.

#36 - Irony

#35 - 'dumbass XD'

We had a couple good friends over last night. A few drinks as well. And a delicious homemade lasagna that she made. All this together made for a very lazy day today. XD

It does feel good to have some fun with good friends though. We still had to celebrate the new year with them, so. <<

So, my brain has been stupid. I know drinking too much isn't smart (and I had a had time sleeping), and that the hangover sucks. But. Once every six months or so is allowed? XD

I do try and play with anatomy with these little funny sketches too, though. They may not look like much, but like I said: when I don't try too hard to get things right, they have a way of being decent. XD

#34 - Please don't let me die

Honestly, I had fun with this. Started with a random pose, got a sketch that, I think, shows how much I love Egyptian art-anatomy XD... and then I thought: well, how about making it a bit more interesting? And then I went a bit wild. <<

I left the original stick-sketch because, for one, I liked it XD but also to show where and how I altered the final sketch. A fellow admin of ProjectComment directed me towards a coiling method video, which I used to try and get the leg proportions right. I mostly failed, but fact is I didn't try and get it perfectly right, either. I also didn't watch the video with sound << but, I try. I'm interested in building my understanding of anatomy, and that's what I'm doing ^^ just expanded a bit in this piece because I didn't want to upload a simple pose sketch. That and said pose beckoned me to be evil. << XD

Seriously, this was fun to draw. I notice that when I don't try too hard to get things right, things have a way of looking decent.

I also changed an option on G-Pen. I really like the pencil feel of some artists' lineart (case in point), but alas CSP seems to have no decent pencil tool :/ that and I like G-Pen. So I tried and set its opacity to 'random', which creates a pretty cool effect that may not quite show. Basically, instead of a straight thick black line, I get a line with greyish gaps. It's not really pencil-y, but it does create an interesting effect nonetheless. So I'll experiment further with it <<

#33 - Pensive

I'll admit, I think I may have taken on a bit more than I can chew with this art project << but, even if my pieces are unfinished/sketchy, I'll keep going with it. Sorry though that it may not be as interesting as expected XD fact is that for me the point is to improve, little by little. I start from pretty low down the ladder, so it'll take time for my pieces to be worthwhile.

In the meantime, I've started work on a compendium/encyclopedia of all my headworld information. This, now, takes precedence. If all goes well, I'll be done by end February to resume work on editing Nalyn and Corvis' story, which I'd like to get published by April. So I've got to juggle quite a few things. But I'm good at that. << XD

And I felt like trying to draw a character, so I did. With certain success. XD

#32 - Reach for the stars

Yeah okay so it's not yesterday's continuation. I had inspiration. <<

Dedicated to my boyfriend who supports me despite my crazy notion to become a famous published author and make a killing living that way.

When I improve at drawing, I'll redo this one. <<
