drawing pad 3 D:

Megatron · Post by **Megatron** » Wed Dec 17, 2003 12:19 am

I started a new thread because I thought the other one was a bit full and I've got a bit better (mabye) ?

Plus I wasn't getting as much feedback, though the forums are slow. But I'd prefer if you just looked at my drawings, thought they were shit then told me why than look at my drawings, think there shit then go to another forum. Or even worse, tell me that there good even though they're shit.

But anyway:

First real attempt at shading mabye? A bit sketchy, but I don't know what else to try. I suppose a mix of colour, layers with screen/multiply and this could work but...meh. Need more time. I know the drawings aren't very good, should have spent more time on the second one and the arms...

anyway again

I agree..Those are good hands.

I'm noticing a lot of goatse.cx in your recent drawings...Trying to tell us something?

Disturbing... a bit more detail and it turns into intriguing.

too many layers

SuperH · Post by **SuperH** » Wed Dec 17, 2003 11:03 pm

I'm lovin' it! (tm)

How many layers were there?

Heh I usually only use like 4... but for my "masterpiece" I had three sketch layers then a detail layer for the inking, and a separate layer for each color. Same deal for the background, I'd imagine.

I like the ribbing / whatever on the arm.

Great eye, and hand.

(Ribbed for her pleasure.)

usually I do a pre-sketch thing, which is basically the outline and how I want to position stuff and lower the opacity. Then I create a new layer with a transparent background and start the actual drawing, then do the details. If there's colour I add a layer, colour it a basic colour then any other major features and put that under my first sketch.

Recently I've also added a shading layer, so about 5 layers? For this I think I had 14 layers as I did it all seperately.

I use one layer for everything..If I can't do it right, I just erase and start over..I tried to do the layered thing..But it took too long, and I get bored easily.

Pretty great stuff. I'm secretly seeing a penis and a vagina in the first one, though. Need to get the brain fixed.

some new awesome stuff

a fat baby giant thingy walking up to a tower.

mixed-up zombies, that aren't that mixed up? They're going through a mid-life crisis.

i think you need to aminate them to take it to the next level.

like imagine how bizzarro it'd be to watch head latex arm walking towards confused zombie butch.

If you haven't seen them before, those are 2 davide cartoons?

I was thinking about animating some stuff, but it sucked a bit. I might try again though, I like animating.

Anyway, here's a gif of a house and a tree. I've taken photos out of my window since april and this is a small part of all the photos. It's in reverse chronological order and last 49 seconds.

wooo

Nice expression!

If you make the gif faster, it could look like a distorted view from someone's eyes?

ExtremeDrinker · Post by **ExtremeDrinker** » Mon Dec 29, 2003 1:47 am

So why do you take pictures out your windows periodically?

Megatron · Post by **Megatron** » Mon Dec 29, 2003 1:53 am

something to do eh? cheers mate

you should buy a tripod and nail it to the ground or something, they would look a lot better if the camera wasn't so shaky
