pencils for 45minutes.

LOOOLL Q____Q niceee Dx

nice pencil drawing, can see pay alot of attention to detail there,

one of the artwork i did during cny

hi guys

I just learned to draw better lips
I think I may have fetish for lips now

thanks mclelun.



here's another painting i did today. subject: KRATOS from god of war game. well i did change bits and pieces of him. not too sure about the colours, a little too dark for my taste. and the background's too simplistic. suggestions welcomed. below is the original pencils:

it doesnt look too dark to me....or maybe because i like darker tone painting....
and the background ,due to the brush stroke, it sorta give me an illusion of raining....
did you do this on painter?

raining? hmm, i guess u're right. it wasnt my intention, though haha.

yes, i did this on painter. all the dark tone comes from the original work that i done with pencils and later scanned into painter. then painted on several layers before exporting to photoshop for some post production effects. pencils took about 2 hours, painting + post effects about 5 hours.

i don't see it as rain haha, i see it as lines of chaotic, which well gave this shot a sense of errr well chaos la hehe. cun la bro. i likey hehe. steady la.

haha...cun la bro...XD
im still very fresh to painter as it is still too complicated for me currently lol....
btw....i wanna ask this long time ago....
is there any side effect/negatives painting on layers instead of the canvas itself like what we ussually do in photoshop?
cuz last time when i did pencil sketch of black color on the layer above the canvas which i done the background, the color of the pencil somehow became like darkblue/brown for sopme reason....

even in photoshop i use a lot of layers when painting actually. however, photoshop layers are more for photo manipulation and effects, while painter's are give more options on controlling the outcome of the media.

the effect that u have is probably the paper surface setting in painter. bcoz of painter's ability to simulate media surfaces, what surface u attempt to sketch on will give different effects. for example, if u use pencils on a concrete wall it will definitely be different from bond paper. even papers have different types. there are watercolour papers, bond papers, tracing papers, soft papers and so on. the effect u have may actually be the setting on those rather than the layers itself. not forgetting that painter has loads of pencils to choose from .

i've moved on from photoshop to painter successfully in 6 months. yeah, it took me that long.

the best thing i love about painter apart from its realistic media is the ability to rotate canvas at will. if u dont know this, the control is spacebar+left click+alt, and while holding the 3 buttons, drag ur mouse around. u'll arbitrarily rotate ur canvas. this imitates rotating ur paper in live drawing. beats rotating the tablet LOL. u can rotate canvas in photoshop as well, but not as easily as this.

ya i notice about the rotation....
thanks for the tips on the paper types...
there's so many tools in painter that i have yet to fully understand what each of them does...
most of the stuff i done looks better in pencil sketch compared to the end painting product currently...

Long time I didnt drawing anything...so just get a refreshment to drawing again...



New concept with X-ray view......(shiieettt.......the A3 size was too big to be scanned in my cheap scanner... )

or you might wanna start sketching on A4..

Nice drawing. I'll try to look up on mine.

both were drawn on a portrait A4 paper. Used Faber Castell's blue ball pen and took about 15 minutes for both. Did it last Sunday.
Identification of the cars? unknown. LOL

Not bad laa.....perhaps you can colour it.....so it will come better as the result.

BTW,another one.....the concept version of road going 917....

Wow nice design, reminds me of the FORD GT40 race car and colour

all are nice drawer. haha... i guess, i'm gonna start my photoshop DVD tutorial by tonight. = ="

i know after so long idling, n only manage to draft her in half an hour (not to mention some fail draft in progress)

Detail(close-up)

i'm using wacom graphire4

[attachmentid=397166]

more detail draft, with clothes now. it seem i did it faster than i expected.
neway realise some part out, gonna fix it tomolo

ps:dang, i hate my monitor, really retraining from clearer overall view. need to get myself a larger monitor (the one that can tilt 90 degree :| )

Fyonne and Azarimy, i am one of your fans when it comes to drawing haha. wicked items mates.

i give up painter after misconfigure it which lag my system a lot, n nao still has been lazy to venture/explore it.

n i need to get OpenCanvas back for canvas rotating function from it. not to mention its easy to use (less complicated due to lesser function)

neone here knows friendly local oekaki community?

Fyonne, if you don't mind criticism...

I think you need to revise anatomy proportions
not that I'm good at it, but it'd would look awesome together with your painting skills

My old drawing......




-This was my own concept car that I made to entered school F1
competition(but this was false hope due to the facts,that I can find the right builder to build such this complex structure.....)

srry didnt realize that part
coz I'd usually fix stuff before colors

i painted on primary monitor n browse using 2ndary monitor, 1 project higher resolution in height, while the other in width, i used to drawn in wider one hence retrain me for looking overall, shrinking em will make harder to spot, only realise it after i see em in height monitor, when i posted em in other forum b4 posting here. since i already put it in imageshack, might as well post it here as well.

New work has done.....



Detail(Close up)

so damn 9 super pro le you all....
been here i feel so.........
._.;;
useless.........T_T

wow all pics so nice, u guys draw in paper n scan or draw in computer?

to be honest, if u're drawing manga style, u can escape with a little disproportion in ur figures. mangas usually intentionally exaggerate certain parts while deliberately reducing others. this is evident in big eyes-small nose combo. what i'm saying is, ur work looks fine

ok nice automotive illustration hehe. i love automotive illustration, so hehe here are mine. all done in Adobe Illustrator, trace bit to bit from the original pictures and took 52 hours to get it done, but still not in perfection. it's not realism, but something in between.

Added on February 17, 2008, 12:32 pmok sorry guys, err i think i have wrongly posted. this thread is suposed to be for drawings right? oh mannnn what was i thinking? ok i know, i have not slept yet since i am rushing for deadline for a job and my client is right in front of me surfing with my WiFi at home haha. or maybe it's because of those concept automotive drawings that you guys posted and it got sexcited hehe. either way, forgive me people.

Whoa. That's awesome, subsonique. One more reason for me to brush up my Illustrator skills. Are those 100% pen tool? It looks like it.

My new concept car drawing....

This was Proton Waja GT1....since I like Proton Waja designation....so I created this GT variant,just like LM spec Porsche 911 GT1,Mclaren F1 GTR LM....



The tail has slightly longer with additional lips,& the front bodywork still retained the Waja trademark Streak line from hood all the way to the front grill,but this time it was made as low slug,sleek front profile.

The rear door has transformed to engine bay,so the opening grabber has been design as hood detachable grabber.

hey thanks mate. yup that is totally 100% pen tool yup bro, you should brush your skills hehe.

hey subsonique, your vector looks sweet...
btw the 52 hours you take is per piece or both piece cost 52 hour?...

thanks mate, 52 hours for both liao hehe. actually there's more to the designs, but i just took the illustrations la.

hehe...the shading is neat....
im still practicing the ways of shading...exxpecially the realistic shading of lips and etc.....
lips are wicked...

must.... keep... this... thread... alive....



media: liquid ink in painter 9.5
time: 30 min.
theme: amalgamation between alan moore's V for Vendetta and final fantasy's Vincent Valentine

hehe Azharimy, as usual...wickeddddddd!!! hehe.

that is really awesome.

nice one

very good dude....

thank you all. thank you for ur support indeed

errr what support bro? oral support eh? haha.

artist community fares stronger when it has equal support from each member of the community. that's how deviantart is so successful . u post up an artwork, u get people to come by and see it, and then they leave comments. to any artist, it will keep ur spirits up (especially when u're down), and continuously want to produce more and more.

so it's not just about saying "wah gempak" or "pergh!", it's what it means to the artist. ofcourse, artists require the occassional smack-in-the-face critiques as well .
