I jelly to you all!!!

u all can draw on PSD but I can only use SAI Paint tool

lol all my work are sai origin

uwahhh??
really ar? teach me senseiiiii

when ever i saw someone use PSD for their artwork always get jelly wooo

Nah, I haven't done any of that. But I've done photostudies and I'm more of a pencil guy anyway. I'm interested in doing charcoal, though

i personally find PSD easier than SAI :|

depend on person

all i need is a simple good stoke brush and 4 type of different layers. and im good to go,
but i have to admit that PS bring toon of tool that are useful and major brush that useful.. sometimes ...
well if you know how to use them..
which i don't.

so sai is pretty much bare... without all the stuff on PSD

and need a lot of time to master since. you pretty much doing everything on your own,


but it does support a PSD file conversion... so its the best tool where you can go back and forth form sai and PSD
to get thr best of both world

another 1 for the night , any LoL players

cant seem to upload it to deviant. but manage to post it up on blog

well actually i use about 2 types of brushes in photoshop as well XD ... since CS5(or was it CS4) you can rotate your canvas already.. hence i can sketch directly in photoshop. i only use the other features and more brushes for detailing once i completed the painting phase

20(!) hours and this came out.

If the sticks behind him distract you, I rubbed it off and it turned out to be...


....meh

shud emphasize more on the tone..now it looks a bit flat and hard to see the overall drawings

this was what i said similar ealier lol... i told him try use pen for outline XD

NO PENS

Right now, i'm just practicing exclusively on graphite.

outline or not its ok..but u need to emphasize mroe on the shadow to have a depth..and also the whole drawing is abit dirty..lol

then strengthen your outline or something similar more darker.
and ya, overall smudge a lot , very waste to see this.

@loto try to avoid smudging its actually a bad practice in my opinion (makes the artwork dirty)



something i drew quite a long time ago (pardon the hair and clothes as my aim is only the face).. using only 2B pencil... hmm you cant really see the shading here in this pic.. but i drew fine hashing .. fine lines -> thick lines = light ->dark

@Loto

I personally find smudging is alright. Perhaps it depends on personal stylisation. Then again, I completely agree with darker and depth thing. You need to press harder, or at least use a softer pencil. It looks rather flat as it is now.

Yeah, I know... I know... I smudge a lot. Unintentionally, most of the time.

I'll try to be cleaner next time. But I don't know about the flat part. Is it the armour or the hammer? or... everything?

everything.



picture at the right side is the one "normal" nice contrast sketch should be looks like.

Dang, knew I shoulda used that 7B pencil...

that's why i said you can use either one of the method...
1) use more strength on darker area.
2) avoid smudge, maybe try get a piece of tissue to put under your palm. but best choice is shading do it from left to right if you are right handed. (just dont touch it)
3) Photoshop or any image editor boost contrast haha
4) Use scanner if your camera sucks, or try shoot it with nice sunlight condition . check your lens got finger print or not *photography term already*
5) ealier i suggest pen because if you have hard time of smudge issue. that's why. use it if you done sketch outline with pencil, or maybe shading with pencil + outline with pen.
