@LCT_m_a_d thank you! 
hope it will be good to us all....sooner or later 
Sazed, who I wanted to draw for a year, and now when I finally finished Mistborn, I can do it 
the best guy 
will clean it and maybe even tag the author 
& Sarah Lin - can't draw Oliver without drawing her too :3.
Edit: promise I won't do this more because it's actually a repost lmao, but just realized it's a huge art self-esteem boost to compare today's sketch with "last year on the same day" sketch now that I've got it all sorted. I can see what I was doing... and it's not the worst thing I've ever seen... but woooooof definitely learned something in a year. Ok back to panels in a better mood :).
Leaving the house seems like a huge chore? Yes. Doing pretty much anything besides gaming or drawing seems like a huge chore? Yes. Definitely :<.
Love your Sazed, you should absolutely tag Brandon!! The first book was so fun but I never felt compelled to read the next stuff in the series 
. Is it worth it?
@LCT_m_a_d thank you! It's fun to draw characters doing stuff they like 
Ahhh I feel that 
OMG the first book was so annoying to me 
I read it for the whole eternity, it was so slow and barely anything happened and Sanderson's writing was not really interesting and I only continued because hubby said it's worth it. And suddenly in the middle of book 2 BAM IT BECAME AWESOME and continued to be so xD so yeah, it's definitely worth it!
Oh damn, really?? I don't think I really like his character writing but the world building was a total yes for me. God the romance in that book made me want to slam my head on a desk too. I will read fiction for a fabulous magic system XD.
Absolutely xD the world building is amazing and characters (and well, everything really) becomes better. But the world is chef's kiss. Also his whole plot planning is purely fantastic.
Thank you :>
Oh wow, cool! Thanks so much for the info. You use the white ink well--it's not overkill or underutilized with your style of color.
Today I practiced my inking and colouring.
Here is the sketch from yesterday:
After the sketch comes the ink:
I use a size 1 paint brush to do the inking, it gives me good control when I want to make lines thicker or thinner.
After the inking the lines, I start on the hair!:
I always enjoy inking the hair, it's always a therapeutic process just watching the brush paint over the blank spaces.
After that I start on the undertones:
After the undertones, I finally move onto the colour:
The skin is a mixture of Burnt Sienna and Vermilion. The Burnt Sienna is the brown. However it isn't enough to just have brown. Since Nani has red undertones, the Vermilion is added to give her the slightly red tone in her skin.
@LCT_m_a_d they have so many characters, sometimes it can be hard to pick just one! And thank you, I personally like the absence of sharp lines in the lilo&stitch art work.
@Black_Conscious I look forward to seeing what Disney characters your draw next! That mulan is brilliant, you really captured the colours well. Did you use a reference like a still (a paused image) from one of the films? Did you know Nani has a post of Mulan in her bedroom in the first lilo and stitch movie
@migxmeg & @Kelheor OMG, Stormlight fans 
I just finished Rhythm of War end of last year. Do you have any favourite characters?
@Calculus_Homework thank you, i'm still get use to placing highlights. When it comes to watercolours, it's also a good habit to forward plan and leave areas white as well as using white ink for highlights bit that's a bit hard for me atm
@migxmeg yep theyr'e cool indeed mayb for nex Halloween or a cosplay I'm sure you'll come up with an idea The girl with paper and cat look awesome too 
Love the one with the guy grooving on his guitar, the angle of his left hand also adds that natural, motion feel too 
@Kelheor is that an OC or Tifa (one of my fave characters) looks awesome either way and sweet layout on the piercings for the bald guy, his expression looks awesome gives me a mix between a stern and wise character 
@
@AfroAtelier nice seeing traditional painting art, never thought about it b4 but totally agree, very therapeutic seeing the paint brush painting over 
XD Awesome linework and the undertones were neatly done Nice seeing the process and paintjob, keep it up
Did this sketch while on lunchbreak - I'm clearly hooked on Issandro atm:
His powers are gravity/anti gravity manipulation and his fighting style inspired by Capoeira, there's some time b4 he appears in the comic but continue to work on him meantime, have to work on the bodypaint for his back, superpower effects.
His design is supposed to be layered especially with the bodypaint placement. -his body paint covers tattoos that reveal his true identity. Also have to do some battleworn textures too where the bodypaint starts to wash off.
His shirt and shirtless looks for comparison:
@Kelheor amazing...ly stubborn 
aww but thanks always for the support.
@nathanKmcwilliams see Erick, want to punch Erick 
@stiatent thank you!! Wow these 3d models are just wicked - the clothes and texture 
I wouldn't even know where to start.
How long does it take you to create a 3d model, they look like a lot of hard work has gone into them!
Tell me about it, documenting each stage of the process is so rewarding. Especially if I want to come back in the future to examine how I did something. I still forget the combination of colours to make nani's skin colour, so I always have to refer to my cheat sheet or go back to my previous studies and figure it out
And great traditional work, I really like the anatomy and dynamic angles!
