The Sketch a Day Thread!

[ybarrolaemmanuel]

OH! thank you so much!

[migxmeg]

It's going to be weird - it'll still be my style I suppose but I think the aesthetic will be a complete 180. Thank you... it's a comfort to hear that it looks cool though! (Never imagined spending 2 years getting used to a look that isn't what we plan to go with, but what can you do?)

[aqua03]

Thanks! I'm liking it, too. Still debating on how I should go about shading it, though. Split between doing an anime-esque cell shading type style or a more painterly type shading style like I've done in the past.

@DanielRKM Thanks. I actually got the idea for them from an old Skechers commercial, actually.

@nathanKmcwilliams

Lol, what dog doesn't constantly beg for food? XD

[Legendofgenii]

@ybarrolaemmanuel Ooo these are looking great! Love that top panel.

Thank you @migxmeg @stiatent

@migxmeg @DanielRKM Loving these smoochy couples all of a sudden. Also, Bellah may need to borrow this Top Bun idea. I always imagine her ears sticking out of the bushes when she's trying to be sneaky.

@KennethLopezJr921 This guy screams antagonist to me.

@Veropatra Hotties always welcome here.

@GingerLoge Looking good.

@mostpowerfrog Loving all these character sheets. This guy is my fave so far.

@stiatent Really cool to see all the development ideas. Love the logo and key designs.

@migxmeg This really sets the scene. I really like the dramatic lighting and shadows.

No one respects buzz. Not even his dog.

I can relate Buzz. I can relate.

@aqua03 Who are these little cuties?

@aqua03 Who are these little cuties?

I'm honestly not sure.... I kind of based them off of a bunch of Early 2000's things like the Characters from EYZMAZE's GROW games, these little TV Guys from an old Skechers Commercial, and an unfortunately really obscure Japanese toyline called Pontikis.

I want to make some form of "chill" type of sandbox setting with them sometime in the future for fun, but I'm not really sure how to really go about it in all honesty.

[LCT_m_a_d]

I'm not opposed to shading (obviously), but it honestly looks perfectly fine flat and vibrant. The carefully positioned spaces and silhouette figure catches my attention. Like even if this was all blackI could still identify the figure. Which is not common for artists to pull off.

[Legendofgenii]

@aqua03 I really like them.

I'm feeling quite nostalgic today. It might be because Genii's birthday is coming up (27th Nov).

Next year my comic will be as old as Gen is.

[aqua03]

Ah, neat. That really means a lot to me to hear and I'm glad that it seems all the hard work I've been putting into refining my art is paying off in producing memorable and dynamic designs.

@Legendofgenii

Thanks. Maybe I might make a comic or something with them down the line possibly. Or a game or something. Could be fun.

[nathanKmcwilliams]

I got Buzz on the brain today. And he's got a cubicle on his.

[stiatent]

@Legendofgenii Nice on Genii's 27th Birthday keep up the long years of hard work n commitment (highfive) Check the chubby lil foot! Excellent work and glad you love the logo and key design, yea I keep seeing a lock and key tattooed somewhere on his body.

@migxmeg yep unity is a great tool, studied game design so use it for prototyping ideas but I've always considered rendering my comic there too especially as you can view your final scene lighting while editing. Haven't played SUPERBOT before but wil check the trailer in freetime
that's real awesome to hear ProBuilder was used in the final game.

[Legendofgenii]

Couple of Gen drawings. Looking rather smug in that last one.

[YoHi]

I'm trying to do a male OC for my comic.

[DanielRKM]

Monster training.

[aqua03]

They look like a friendly sort of fellow.

@nathanKmcwilliams Funny you'd mention Eyeshield 21... I was thinking of giving it a read and husband has given it the highschool jock seal of approval, so... I think I will after the season is over. I have SO MUCH football to watch right now though OMG. And read! Part of the reason I fell so hard for football is because of how much it's about strategy/mind games (I had no idea it was this brainy and I am so in love with the concept of cadence). So I have a stack of books at home on fewtball strategy to try and understand it.

@migxmeg - It helped, I think, yeah. Before I was kind of operating on "key frames" when it comes to the action. Cool shot here, cool shot here. Now I can imagine the whole motion and work it into the movement of the sketch. And I can throw a spiral even as my whole back protests the indignity

[nathanKmcwilliams]

Nice. Then you're gonna love Hiruma Yoichi from the series. Guy is a mastermind (he's my favorite, and arguably the most important character, even more than the protagonist)

[LCT_m_a_d]

kind of relaxing to play with his forms a bit

[sartinjacqueline05]

Welp. Time for another nerve wrecking concept.

[Veropatra]

OMG the sketch looks awesome .
I'm always impressed with people who can draw that good on paper

[memologue]

Sketch for the cover image of my series, I decided to just start uploading and not worry too much about my upload speed ^^
