Tag: digital drawing from scratch

  • Digital studies

    Fruit plate – speed sketch with a one hour limit. Not bad, though I spent far too long on the plate (which is skewed too); I went over it 3 times which wasted a lot of time, leaving me less time to go into more fruit detail.

  • Grandson portrait

    This one was interesting to draw! As always, displaying my Photoshop Takes Zero Skill heavily filtered pic, but I do want to post some WIPs too!

    I wanted to try something different for this – I really like the angle and lighting of this shot, but it was too daunting to approach with pencil because it was extremely black heavy, and I don’t like having to spend so much pencil lead on paper because it’s so tedious, not to mention the graphite goes everywhere and is prone to smudging! So I decided to start my digital canvas black, and worked my way towards white. It kind of worked???

  • Taika Waititi

    I think I’m done trying to draw digitally for the rest of this year. It’s so hard! Also a cropped version without a filter wrecking it just cause.

  • Damian Lewis

    When will I get better at colour accuracy??? When I can I capture expressions accurately???

    Also I still hate doing digital only from scratch, it’s too hard!

  • The Singing Towers of Darillium | River Song

    Ok so this one was easier and turned out better than the Doctor, I hate myself! But I’m so glad I don’t hate this one as much; “real life” women have always been more difficult for me to draw than anime version whereas for men it’s the opposite, and this one proves me wrong?

    Yay for River Song, though this is such a sad moment!

  • No practice means skill downgrade

    Yep I still cannot get Bad Wolf right… so I’ll just leave this here…

  • Study: Bad Wolf

    Yeah. I really should quit while I’m ahead. These are getting worse XD

    I wrecked the lips and chin this time. Plus HAIR?!?!?!

    Back to my characters now with my newfound struggling skills!

    August 3 update: I tried to fix it and got marginally better so here’s a bigger pic:

  • Study: Digital Bret

    Trying out something different – a realism drawing completely from scratch. I actually like it for my first attempt! Though there’s heaps wrong with it… but considering I clocked in at 2hours 19mins, that’s pretty good for a first try.
