Didn’t get anywhere with my GSoC code today, so decided to start do some painting and doing the drawing challenge. Had some fun 🙂
Made the sketch in 8bit, and also did the flats in 8bit. Then went to 16bit int with linear space to do the mixing. Finally, overlaid the image with a slight pattern, set to overlay, and then converted to 8bit, to prevent banding artefacts. Ended up pretty well 🙂
I had intended to record a timelapse of her, but only saw after finishing it that I didn’t press ‘record’… Took about 1 hour and 20 minutes on this.
I recorded the progress of this one for a perspective tutorial. But… I forgot the pauze hotkey for the screen recording program. So I ended up drawing 2ish hours non stop. My arms hurt now.
Not very clean, but I am relatively happy with it.
I hadn’t painted properly in a while, so I decided to put down an image I had been having in my head, though I’m not sure if the eighties hair was really part of it, I’m not upset with it there either.
Drew this in 16bit srgb first before converting it to my monitor’s profile.
Some concept-art made with Krita.
Just deciding on basic colour palette.
I found out there were a whole lot of pictures I never uploaded or anything, so I decided to photograph them and upload them.
This is a test of comic styles in Krita.
The middle one being a watercoloury style(probably needs better colour picking to be really useful)
The last being traditional ink-then-colour, softshading style, and the first being a variation where I painted the subject first, and then added the lines. Painting is a little more comfortable for me regarding details like hair and folds(which are nice to sculpt this way), so it’s a little more natural to me to try this manner.
All of them have their own charm really.
This one was in wip-hell since last christmas. Today I basically finished it.
Made with mypaint.
I was briefly afraid that it would be a little too crazy, but then the fandom started assigning symbol-vegetables to characters, so I was being afraid of being crazy while sitting in the asylumn.
Anyhow.
…Kind of really pleased with that mountain range there…
Fanart for the anime Cardfight Vanguard, I wanted to describe the relationship between the characters Kai and Aichi.
I’ve been practicing brush inking, and I have the feeling I’m getting somewhere. I got some nice winsor and newton brushes and I’m still happily experimenting with them. I also made a test page for Streets of Ganjet, to see if brush inked characters on a penned background, coloured in, would look good.
Unforetunatly the page ended up a bit skewed and I think I’ll have to become good friends with my mirror once I start doing future pages.
