So, I finished inking that two page comic I was working on, and have scanned it in and am starting to play around in photoshop with colors and such. I'm not very well versed in either photoshop or color palettes, so I'd like for anyone who cares to to comment on this. I've got the general colors of the backgrounds in place, and some coloring on objects. What do you think? Do the overall colors work? How should I be coloringg this piece?
It's Uncle Vernon! He's a pig.
And a right proper one at that, too. He's very snooty, apparently like Monsieurs James and Phil, who do not wish to grace this blog with their artwork or comments. Yeah, that's right! I called you out! On that blog that you started but don't read anymore! BURN!
I was in Arizona this weekend, visiting my parents. I don't recommend visiting Arizona, it's full of bugs.
This guy was just chilling at a rest stop just across the border. He's pretty much life-size in this image. Everywhere I looked at this rest stop, there were locusts and bees. I saw at least three different species of locusts. There might have been more than one kind of bee, but bees freak me out so I didn't look very closely.
I drew this with a brush pen at a lake. The lake smelled like licorice for some reason, and it actually looked more like a lake than this little swampy section I drew. Once again there were tons of bugs.
And finally, i worked up Friday's drawing theme of "robot" into this guy. He loves you so much!
And here's some older drawings from a couple days ago.
I'm trying to shift from sketches to doing more watercolor/ink paintings, but we'll see how it works out. I did manage to finish this one, and I'm very satisfied with the results...
Also, here's some drawings left in my sketchbook from the group, who choose to remain unrepresented (that's a call to arms to James and Phillip, respectively).
Some sketches from yesterday and today. I have fought with this tiny sketchbook for months now, and hated it. But today I tried using ink in it, and man that thing takes ink like a champ! I like my sketchbook now!
More giant contour drawings from my birthday party. Thanks to everyone who came and participated.
Just a heads up, this next one is nothing but birds, fetuses, and penises. So don't look at it if explicit representations of birds offend you.
So in honor of my birthday today, we all showed up at my house and did giant contour drawings. The idea was that one of us would start by drawing an image, and the next person to draw would have to fit part of their drawing into the contour of the previous drawings. After a while, you start getting some really interesting shapes and some really interesting drawings crammed into those shapes. These are both about 4' wide. Thumbnailed due to large amounts of objectionable material that some prudes may find offensive.
