ban's sketchbook

[teyoliia]

(which are still... well...)

[teyoliia]

and some more (=

[teyoliia]

[Rarebit]

Nice studies, try pushing your darks further and loosening your line alittlebit,
mainly im posting to share a tip concerning photographing your work. Mount what your photographing on a wall somehow, and shine two lights of equal brightness and equal vertical placement at 45 degrees of the picture, one light on either side (so that there is an imaginary 90 degree point of a triangle in the center of the work). Photograph the picture using a tripod if possible.
Its kind of a common sense thing, sorry if its a bit redundent for you.
Let's see those digitals!

[teyoliia]

thanks Rarebit, i'll just give it a try =)
and thx for the photography-tip, i keep that in mind =D (i have a scanner now, yay ^^, )

well, now some studies and some digital stuff as promised =D

[Hive_minD]

Your stuff looks amazing. A great SB is rising here! I really like the anatomy sketches, alongside your splendid digitals. Looking forward to the updates!

I wasn't sure what to expect from your digitals looking at the pencil/paper stuff - but I was very pleasantly surprised (also, the pencil stuff doesn't look bad at all, just the picture quality kind of sucks and some of the figures are shaped a little funny [specifically the head skeletal-muscular study from post 3]). All of the digital stuff is looking really strong. That last one looks like its a step or two away from being really, really great. Actually, most of them are a few steps away from looking very nicely polished and executed. Keep it up!

[teyoliia]

Hive_minD: thank you =D
Crazy Pills: hehe, thanks a lot =) i hope i will improve more with my pencils skills in the next weeks =d

[DanielC]

nice ! keep working !

[teyoliia]

aah dan, why u post that? i only did like 2% of the whole pic xD
but i will color that soon, rawr

well, new ugly stuff =D

[DanielC]

looking good !
I'd try to do as less lines as possible if i were you. So you can really concentrate on what you're looking for and have a cleaner drawing too. And for the shading, it's pretty handy to have at least two different values in mind: darker darks, and darks. you can have more if you want more decomposed (and therefor, smoother and more detailed) planes. If you have the values good, you can take it even further with the direction of you hatching, by following the shape in two or more directions. And keep in mind, stay simple !
Keep working !

[teyoliia]

aw thx dan, i try that ° 3°~

nyah, here you can see my pets (one chinchilla and two degus (mraw they r so cute... and hyperactiv... hard to capture them xD' ))

Hey, I think you've got the same anatomy book as me--"Anatomy for the Artist" by Sarah Simblet, right?

You're doing much better than me, lol.

hehe, wanted to ask you the same after i saw through your old sb and detected some hand sketches =d

je t'aime bien <3

stuff from today~

[DanielC]

Hey ! good studies ! Something you might want to try also is line weight. For example darker and thicker lines on the shadow side and stuff..
and sorry about sketcher, my dad keeps on doing weird experiments on the router... and does that mean you wont be coming anymore ?

[teyoliia]

aw thanks =D oki, ill try that (=
aaand no, that only mean that i can't stand as long as at my holidays ^^,
