Finished Up The Inking Yesterday. I Experimented With Adding Hatching! This Is Something That I’ve

I took a photo of my art and played around with its colors on my phone. I thought it'd be cool to share. 😁 I'm still finishing up coloring the original, so stay tuned.

This almost matches my current mood tbh.

I win.

I got introspective one day and sketched out a 6 panel comic. It sat in a folder for a few days before I expanded it to 10. Then it sat for a week. After which, I moved on. The expiration date had passed, and the comic joined the rest of the half-drawn files in the very same folder. 

I still don’t like it anymore, but I’ll take the victories where I can.

Because I was asked how I proceed on another picture but I didn’t really save my steps so this time I have been more careful.

It’s a very chaotic and intuitive process, so I guess it’s more to reply to @rincat21 than for giving tips or helping\teaching something. I used for a very long time the flats+shades+highlights technique, but I am a control maniac when it’s about pics and I find that this way there is more control on the final colors since the beginning. On a less refined way, I do the same when sketching. This took about 5h and it’s my feel-good technique.

That’s all i suppose…? I am very likely to be around (must get comics pages finished by the end of the year so to celebrate when I’ll meet my colleague at the comics fair LOL) so if you want more in-depth info on something just ask :)

In case anybody's wondering what I've been up to this weekend, this is my view right now. This is my #life #unfiltered if you will. I've been doing homework and preparing my artwork to go up on my revamped website. You'll hear more about that when it's done. For now, consider this me poking my head in and saying "hey, I'm here. I'm just busy." and tired... Getting back to work now! ✌🏼 🔹 #lifeunfiltered #unfilteredlife #artlife #lifeofanartist #artist #collegestudent #collegestudentlife #digitalart #digital #painting #instaart #digitalpainting #digitaldrawing #creative #illustrator #graphic #photoshop #wacom #color #art #dailyart #artoftheday #paint #adobe #digitalartist #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #CrystaltheCC

Here's another animation (Plotagraph) that I made last semester using my self-portrait illustration. I encourage you to watch this one carefully; the movements are very subtle. Hope you enjoy~ 😊

A belated Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone! I made some Christmas-themed changes to my Nerdy Ninjas mascot. :)⁠⠀ 🔹⁠⠀ #art #artsy #DailyArt #ArtoftheDay #artwork #draw #drawing #digitalart #digitalartwork #digitaldrawing #painting #digitalpainting #doodle #sketch #sketchbook #digitalartist #photoshop #illustrator #artwork #conceptart #characterdesign #characterdesigner #instaart #instaartist #instadraw #Christmas #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #artist #CrystalCurie https://www.instagram.com/p/CJUwHRcjZiB/?igshid=be81wm7e01

I just heard of Cognitive Drawing recently and I was so intrigued by the idea that I had to try it for myself. I'm surprised how much I memorized about the eye in step 5! (bottom left) Definitely going to go through the rest of the book over the next 24 days. 😊 Credit goes to @jason_brubaker for the concept and book.

gif example for the first 3:

another example of applying measuring:

I know poppin’ to be roughly 5 feet tall. I also know that, on average, the height of a room is at least 8 foot tall.

I also know that the pokémon centre has two levels to its base floor room, so I’m thinking it’s a bigger room than average but still a little less than two storeys tall. I decide to make it 12 feet tall, thats one and a half rooms. Considering the average size of pokemon is like, huge, it sounds about right to me.

So I measure that out:

then I add another floor on top, and that gives me the height of the building!

this is the same as measuring out the cubes, I just applied a number this time! the pokémon centre is about four poppin’s tall, or four cubes if you will

there’s all kinds of things you can do by using just a few lines to measure things out. I wanted to make sure hugh was taller so I measured that out too!

so when you’re drawing things like architecture instead of thinking of it as a big complex shape, break it down and think about the size and position of things - especially the edges - relative to each other, and you’ll find it much easier to draw.

It’s very time consuming, but if you’re patient you can draw anything no matter how complex :^)

Love this ❤️

Jessie with a Dreepy is my new favorite thing. Please give her one. They’d be a great team.
