weeeeellll
i've seen that this forum has an unusually high amount of artists so i guess that i'll just go right along and post some things here
so this first one is my latest work, along with the oldest work i could find on my computer, scanned sometime in 2005
well, it's more colorful now, but that's about it
(https://thebackalleys.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fspamtheweb.com%2Ful%2Fupload%2F150808%2F83398_seranon-fin-version.jpg&hash=6bc2d78591e528bf19fa29bc6bf5871d7a16f38f)
and over here is a detail shot of a more 'realistic' portrait, you can see the whole thing here (http://jeinu.deviantart.com/art/Gloved-Lady-89165600)

and here's something a little more comic-y, this is the closest thing to how i draw (comic-ly) in real life
"I think I may have just solved all of our problems!"
"What."

an unfinished sketch that i will probably never finish, of a character Rila

here is a screenshot of some sort of cartoon i'm working on

screenshot of a collab i'm supposed to be leading or something
and here (http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/437236)'s the only flash i've ever finished on my own. kind of lousy, since i began running out of time and left some frames un-in-between-ed and also it's about pico and the ending is wonky oh hum. but hey it's finished.
That inspires me & yet reminds me how I have low animating skillz.
B-Cube get em.
i like your style. especially your paintings. they're very soft and subtle. thanks for posting your work! hope to see more

You and your fruits with teeth.

not too fond of her hat though
i feel as though her outlines pop out too much
Quote from: unconditionallyguarANTeedi feel as though her outlines pop out too much
and that's because i forgot to put the lineart on multiply

lmao i think everyone here at least doodles or sketches something, or writes or takes pictures, or has an amazing band.
Quote from: Jeinuthere does that make much more sense
it still kinda pops in certain places like her coat and pants
but much better : )
looks fine to me
Dam lookin at your photoshop work
Jus makes me want to learn how to use it
Mo an mo
the collar of her coat doesn't seem to be in perspective with the coat itself in the front view now that i look at it
at first i thought her head was too small lmao

lmao dam
u can teach photoshop to yourself and be a "pro" in like less than a year man just open it and start fuckin around or find some tuts
my only beef with ps is that i can't make lines smooth enough to fit my tastes
that and i have elements 3 which is pretty much shit for illustration (it's better for shit like photomanipulation and jackin up the quality of fractals et al)

yeah, ps is not really good for lineart. If I can't get it right with a pen tool or careful penmanship, then usually i'll do the line art in flash, as i did with Amity.
increasing DPI usually solves the 'i cant make good lineart' problem
Is increasing DPI the same as increasing the resolution?
photoshop is awesome with line art if you know how to work with it correctly, even if you use the default round brush tool only.
and yes fuzz, it pretty much is
my general rule of thumb is to make the document 4 times higher in resolution than what the image is going to be exported at for the web
i've tried doing that a few times, but it always make my machine lag a ton, to the point where my tablet is being slow and unresponsive, which makes lines jerky, which kind of ruins the point. even if i have only photoshop open. very wacky.
anyway, new speed painting, Ensce:

just messing around with some brushes
WIP !
trying that whole 'lineart in photoshop' thing, looking pretty good i suppose but it's making my computer lag.
anyway, this is based on the book In the Country of Last Things, which is pretty short so if you have time i really recommend it
(https://thebackalleys.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fspamtheweb.com%2Ful%2Fupload%2F130908%2F74807_itcolt-screen-1.jpg&hash=5a6abb0674f9e2ba0c64d729e4d699808c9c4092)
one of these days i'm going to have to learn how to draw a shopping cart
today is not that day
lineart is solid
some of the faces are a little disjointed, especially if the eye travels from forehead to the chin
drawing a skull over it on another layer for a guide can help you adjust these things
its really good i think!

yeah, are you talking about the top left fellow? my other problem with drawing in bigger resolutions is that i can't see what the big picture looks like until i zoom out -5x or whatever, but i suppose that will come with practice.
Quote from: Squeefits really good i think!
thannnks
ok here is the second part of some sort of collab i'm leading with aura core.
http://spamtheweb.com/ul/upload/150908/768...liss_part_2.php (http://spamtheweb.com/ul/upload/150908/76808_bliss_part_2.php) (you may have to right click 'rewind' then 'play' to get to my part i am terrible with AS ok)
don't say anything about the bangs they are still being worked on alright
and ignore the sloppy notes/animatics
nothing is final

lmao what have you done it was nothing but a pink screen saying fancy intro thing then i X'ed out and clicked again and it had suddenly skipped ahead and was on a brown screen saying something else
are we ever going to finish that dam collab
also i think my part for that sucks i might redo it
the one psi43 hosted? that one that was supposed to get done in a day and has spanned over a month?
kinda defeats the point of "time trial"
uh, not quite, it was a different one, set to the song Bliss by Muse
but notorious your part is perfectly fine i wouldn't change a thing
i think everyone's pretty close to finishing but no one's been able to get ahold oftariennsdkgjjhpf
and i have no idea what's up with my AS i swore i had it right that time
works for me : (((
try the right click, 'rewind' right click 'play'
that sometimes works!
oh oh oh oh
oh
oh ok then
BOY THE LOOK ON MY FACE
