*fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/228/8/a/rango_by_niku4186-d46uk0c.jpg

*fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/271/c/c/evening_sea_2_by_niku4186-d4b5xiw.jpg
made these two using corel painter.

Awesome drawing gollum. BTW the first one looks like your dp

lol that's rango from the movie.
check it out on google

Actually today only i got to know that there's a film so called rango

(my bro told me)

You are a brilliant artist Gollum. Very nice drawing and paintings indeed.

Sadly, I can't add you reputation in this thread.

awesome sketch gollum...even i used to sketch a lot before but stopped it since past 5 yrs...well looking at this i'll surely start again.

here are some of the artworks i drew when working late nights in office

very nice abhidev
i really like the first one. if you keep practicing you will definitely get better and better. so keep doodling wherever you can be it home, office, train, bus, restaurant or toilet

@gollum: yea its been a long time since then...i used to draw a lot...used to have my sketches held on notice boards in school and college

...

these artworks i hv posted are just something i drew on the office glass board with a marker...just for fun. anyways will dig into my drawer and see if i can find any of my work and post it here...

gollum, i'd pay for those pics

i like them better than some of the crap that is put up in art galleries in the name of "art"

Nice work Gollum. As for me, once I tried sketching a girl's face. When I was done, it looked more like me than her.

does anime characters count?
if so...then i'll post my collection each day starting from tomorrow

thanks dude. but in my opinion most people who are more inclined towards technology would prefer digital art. and three purple you find at art galleries are not the same.
i'm more inclined towards sketching in realism and fantasy.

yes any artwork, even things you may draw at your walls

graffiti
clay models
paintings
sketches etc etc

you know, if you get it right, you can have a very strong impression.
and....i'm telling you this cause it sure works

in fact i mostly draw girls

so here is another one whom you might know from the Harry potter movies.

*fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2010/088/8/e/Emma_Watson_by_Niku4186.jpg

that's Emma Watson if you still didn't recognize her

Nice thread !
I make sketches related to games . I'll post something in Deewali Holidays coz i haven't time in collage.

I'll make something for sure.

Draw "Jem" again and "his crush" too

o yeah jem is such a sweetheart, i definitely will make her sketch. in fact it was her sketch that i started off with. and boy it was a jump start for me. since then i have learned many things about human anatomy and facial features. which has also raised my bar for beauty and.......not every girl is beautiful (by face that is)...but i can make almost any girl look beautiful in a sketch...the problem is, it won't look like her

i can't make "his crush" again cause it was a sketch request and not to mention i made that one with a passport size photo as reference.

Emma's hair looks very good.

thanks krow, i'm working on a new sketch now. just finished the outlines today. will post pics later in the night.

Really good work Gollum, please keep it up.

@gollum, Emma's sketch is really beautiful, lookin like original

awesome!

here is what i'm working on. keep in mind this is just 5% and 10% completed, just the outline. so for now she looks like a ghost lol
i'm drawing this from the 3.2" screen of my phone
*img28.imageshack.us/img28/7303/rps20111007080307.jpg
*img190.imageshack.us/img190/2484/rps20111007080433.jpg
the rest will take another two days cause i can't draw much today for i have some other work today.

@gollum: awesome sketch of emma ....dude if you can let me know the process you follow while drawing a sketch...that will be really helpful...thanx

in what part do you need help? like any specific area? eyes, hair, shin, nose, teeth or general symmetry?
this above sketch is going to be a part of my first tutorial on how to make realistic sketches.

more work done today. spent almost the whole morning drawing. not really, just felt like that
*img638.imageshack.us/img638/6532/rps20111008174543.jpg

after the base lines for the strokes i start with the hair.
*img444.imageshack.us/img444/3858/rps20111008174604.jpg
*img403.imageshack.us/img403/3108/rps20111008174622.jpg

well to be frank...i don't follow any process to draw a sketch(n maybe that's why they don't look the same

)....

Well you can start with...suppose you have a picture with u...how do u go abt drawing the outline, symmetry...etc.... most difficult part for me is to draw the lips and teeth

So probably while you are drawing this pic you can list down the steps in little detail. thanx. Well loved the way you have shaded the hair.

actually,i haven't shaded the hair at all. its just lines.
for symmetry, i would suggest using a grid of 3x3 blocks.
use the grid on both reference and your blank paper.
now start drawing the outline; start from anywhere; use a scale if you have trouble concentrating on proportions. best thing to do is to use a grid of same size on both.
when I started, i used a calculator

but eventually after lots of practice you will not require any grid etc for the outline.

most importantly, don't give up if after one hour also your outlines don't look perfect. a near perfect outline will take you 3 to 4 hours.
realism requires time, patience, and lots of observation. best take a break after every hour, consult with friends to point out flaws. cause after just 3 hours into the sketch you might just start to go crazy.

another important thing is paper. your school notebook will not do.
but a sketch pad with paper of thickness of 100gsm or more. i use 130.
get pencils from 2h to 10b and also use .5mm 2b and hb for detailing.
a regular eraser and a kneadable eraser. kneadable erasers are hard to find but are the best.
try to find blending stumps for shading or make your own.
use a clear, big and detailed photo reference. shitty reference = shitty sketch.
try finding easy references at first
don't ever start with celebrities

^^Some pretty useful tips, thanks.

lips and teeth are the easiest.
the upper lip is always smaller than the lower.
don't draw lines for each teeth, the person in the sketch will look like a monster. draw the gums and lightly draw the edges of the teeth. the viewers brain will fill the lines. that's the magic trick. since teeth are the brightest of the whole face/sketch, make its immediate surroundings as dark as possible. in fact all bright spots ona sketch have black very close to it. now look at the tube light in your room, notice that its surface outline area is quite dark.

Absolutely amazing! You're very talented Gollum. Lady's lips looked a bit off, as opposed to her actual image. She looks more serious. But the rest looks really good. Emma's art is brilliant.

lady's sketch is of the time when i didn't know how to draw lips eyes and hair. you can call it a noob drawing. I plan to draw her again, she's my fav. if you want lips, check out my sketch below.
*fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2011/064/8/8/rosy_lips_by_niku4186-d3axvnn.png

now i can draw a better version of lady but before that i have to draw captain jack sparrow and asuka from tekken.

above girl's eyes are nice.

thanks kola.
a little update

*img41.imageshack.us/img41/6603/rps20111012094644.jpg

drawing early i'm the morning helps a lot in maintaining concentration.

I've got only one word to say "Gorgeous". BTW if you are planning to for some auction or selling off any time, then do let me know. I don't mind paying for the Master Pieces created from your Heart/ Paintbrush straight on the Canvas/Paper.

Nice Thread dude, keep posting.

holy **** ! That's got be one of the best pencil sketch. Great !!!

Superb works, gollum.

Awesome sketch gollum, especially the hairs, the way you've given the curl by overlapping shows ur fine hand

Good ones.

Wow they are real good gollum. Great artwork. Hats off to you.

thanks guys, its been do many days and i have not got any time to finish my last sketch. all thanks to my job.
i was jobless when i started

if that girl's sketch is noob what is enthusiast then?

awesome.

Gollum thats a masterpiece & amazing Talent...

which pencils u use (HB,2B etc) for a single drawing?
also do u use charcoal?

@zangetsu
i use pencils ranging from 2h till 10b
but majorly i use a 2b mechanical pencil with 0.5mm lead.
i don't use charcoal because its a messy business and i can't find grey paper for it.

@Gollum:Saw your creations.You are awesome!

thanks neuron,
btw the sketch above is now complete.
i will upload it tomorrow.
time to find a new model.

I'll post a good picture tomorrow for i have a holiday tomorrow and photos come out well in daylight.

As a big comic book fan, your work makes me jealous Gollum.

why so? i initially tried to draw manga but then shifted to realism. now i don't feel like drawing anime characters.

Because after reading comic books, I really got interested in drawing and tried my hand at it. I suck so bad, I can't even draw proper cubes lol. And comicdom has some great talents like Jim Lee, Lee Bermejo, Frank Miller, etc. If you haven't, then you must see Bermejo's art!

Awesome gollum.

@Gollum, your pencil drawings are pretty good.

also enjoy your digital painting.

thanks everyone. gonna do something new this weekend. week days are just too exhaustive for me

Nice sketches and paintings Gollum.

tkin said:

Yea, they are painful to do. Not that I hate it, I love painting, but it takes time and resources.

You need this:

1. A painting of that size needs an empty and dedicated room. Reason being: A lot of the paint gets splashed around. Oil point sticks were it settles, and has to be removed using petrol / turpintie / linsead oil. Place smells up too...!
2. It takes around 1-2 months to complete that. Cause the paint has to be left to dry, and then fresh layers applied on. 5-6 hours per day.
3. Oil paints are quite expensive. You need linseed oil / turpentine / oil paint also. Paint brushes, sables. Mixing boards. Canvas and spray paint to adhere the charcoal - which- is the outline.
4. Time and time.

himadri_sm said:

See above. I sketch still.

By the way, regarding the 2nd painting: read this:
I have done more oils, but this is another one I had clicked. Am really happy I found the image. There is no way what so ever I will ever get to see this painting again in reality. It is in a house (I had gifted it) -and- we had a big family feud, so cannot enter the house anymore.

The deal here was: It was supposed to be hung up in a huge hall. So I made it in such a manner that it will look classic when seen from a distance. If you see it from a computer screen, does not look that good. Step like like 3-4 feet and then look at it. It will all gel in quite better. The oil paint was applied on really really dense, the huts were done using a scalpel painting knife, and the reflections of the boats had to be staged. I painted in the water till the edges of the boats, let the paint dry (takes ages); and overlay the reflection on top. Same with the foliage of the trees, which I induced using cloth dipped in oil paint+turpintine+linseed oil mix. Also as a rule for this painting: I never applied black or white as a direct stroke. I always mixed it in with semi-tone of something similar to what I wanted. A lot of tubes went into this, reason being that the color mixing and toning was done on the canvas. At some points, I was not satisfied, so had to let the paint dry and then scrape it off with a blade. Cannot wipe it off, cause it will smudge other correct areas. Progress was slow here.

This would again be 18-19 years of age.

Yeah i know the challenges of painting in oil....but the joy of watching a painting come together is priceless...btw, if you already have traditional art skills, you should try painting in photoshop using an wacom...

^^
What is that..?

What is that..?

Its a tablet, uses a touchpanel, for drawing.

I think its called ~~Bamboo Wacom~~ Wacom Bamboo or something like that.

^^Wacom is a pen tablet.you can use that to draw/paint in the computer without a mouse

tkin said:

Wacom is a manufacturer, a brand- it has different models like bamboo, intuos & cintiq. Bamboo One is the cheapest & costs around rs. 2800/-

The Cintiq and Intuos for professionals. Intous4 is latest and price of smalest Intuos4 is around 12k+. Cintiq is more expensive, Cintiq Is an LCD Screen You Can Draw On it with pressure sensative pen.

Pen Tablet from Iball and frontech also available but wacom is the best.

@digi
a little behind on the updates. cintiq5 is out.
bamboo one pen small is 2.8k but you need medium size for any sketch.
i have the medium size one and it's 14" diagonally.

if you want an wacom bambo,you try it out with wacom bambo one which i had(Now Gone for service,Hope i Get An RMA for that).Or Bambo fun is also good enough

Just dropping by to wish "awesome work" Gollum and asingh. Never knew we had such artists amongst us!

This thread reminded me of my drawing classes in school. I used to love drawing. But looks like not enough to pursue even as a hobby. I would like to share some of my drawing (if I can find those) which I made during my childhood. Soon.

I know, I didn't make it an exactly the same

I added a little flavor of my own

man if you can teach how to draw the lips and the teeth or some tuts...it would eb of gr8 help...those hardest things for me to draw

@Gollum : After seeing the original(colored) photo I have to say your sketch is 10 times better than the original one.
You have some awesome skills mate. :doublethumb:

@abhidev : Great cartoons, love them

Great works guys!

well..I'm a self-taught freelance digital artist...just posting a random drawing

hehhee ..

Nice work guys. I just came to know about this thread. I would have joined the discussion and learned to draw if I knew a thread like this exists. Kudos OP for starting this thread.

I kinda like pencil drawing. I have tried to draw few things and posted the images somewhere in the other thread which serves whole different purpose. Now I can post 'em here...

I am not even "B" in beginner. So my work was done with normal pencil and in a notebook paper. The following works (the term "work" may not be apt for these basic thing as there are some fantastic works are posted in this thread) were drawn few months back.

I need to ask you guys a lot right from the material/tools for pencil drawing. But for now please comment on these...

stop using notebook paper
get some good drawing pencils 2h h hb 2b 3b 4b 5b 6b 7b 8b 9b 10b

get a 2b 0.5mm pencil
90% of fmy sketches are done entirely on the 2b 0.5mm pencil

Thanks guys...

Gollum,
I have bought 6H, 4H, 2H, B, HB, 2B, 4B, 6B and 10B and a charcoal pencil (B) and a white pencil. In fact this is what I could find in my place that too after a long search. Totally forgot that .5mm pencil.

No body knows what is kneaded eraser, blending stump, tortillon in the stationery shop. Where can I get these? I have even checked online...
What is pastel? Is this erasable?

Now I am working on a portrait. Even though I have dark/light pencils, I couldn't get the same dark/soft shades/tones. And now I am using drawing paper, but I don't see much difference between notebook paper and this drawing paper other than the later is little thicker.

I am almost done with the portrait I am working on. I will post it tomorrow after giving some final touch.

I really loved work here, specially Gollum and specially the fact that you allowed your creative work to nurture, I remember I used to draw when I was so young then priorities changed and now I am more into development than designing, I still have my sketchbook somewhere, I will try to restore them and post here someday.

you can get art supplies from flipkart now
they have kneaded erasers
If you can;t buy blending stumps them make them, just roll paper up and cut the tip diagonally with a scissor, I also don't have them but I made them myself and I made many for different sizes.

you can buy sketch books of A4 size from Navneet or Built
papger thickness should be more than 100GSM and you should draw from the rough side of the paper to get the maximum darkness.

Stunning work there Gollum! Thnks for posting the work in progress stills

@Gollum: I am impressed

Well, I too was once drawing nice. But, took a long break - really long that I need few more days to bring my drawing hands back

Gollum,
Wow!!! 36hrs... That sure needs one helluva patience... I really wonder how you guys bring that realistic hair. Dark/light shades and light falling on the hair (that glossy look), nothing I could bring.

Here is the one I was talking about.

For realistic hair, you should not do any shading on the hair
Use only a 0.5 or 0.3mm mechanical pencil
you need to draw from the tip of the hair
for dark sides start with 2b which merge into a ligher shade of 2b and then into a regular shade of HB and then a lighter shade of HB and then the shade has to go back to the dark with the same steps
so its like Darkest>dark>less dark>light>lighter>lightest>lighter>light>less dark>dark>darkest

^ Thank you...
I'll do that...

Swapnil26sps said:

you need to study, the light.
Hair is mostly curled and when light falls on it the shade of black changed from light to dark and then back to light
there is absolutely no shading in hair. also you need to use only 0.5mm or 0.3 mm pencil for hair
I'm gonna make a tutorrial soon

@gollum: thank you so much, ok...i'll remember this.
If tutorial is coming soon then i am eagerly waiting.

Nice drawing Gollum

.Any tips on drawing nose for me?

You would need to first get the outline correct. Take your time to get the symmetry correct and then add a little shading making sure the nostrils be as dark as possible

^thanks for the tip

Any idea on how to make better faces? Got myself a 9B graphite pencil and trying.

JojoTheDragon said:

don't use 9b straightaway. I bought a whole lot of pencils from 2h till 10b
but all I use is 2h, hb, and 2b.

For better symmetry, use a grid. And if its still difficult, use a scale and a calculator to measure the difference. Once you get a good outline done, you will automatically get a good sketch.

Draw regularly with a grid until you feel confident without one.
start with a4 size and gradually move to a3

I made the one below with a grid and a big scale cause honestly, a3 is too big for me. Took me almost a day just to finish the outline and prominent features.
Those little numbers on the top are conversions from reference to paper. A lot of math here

I still have to fix the eyes and finish the clothing along with the background.

They are really good gollum! I do some artwork too and these days I have been doing posters for events and stuff for college. It's such a pain in the neck to have to draw and scan 'cause I'm very bad at drawing with a mouse. I heard wacom is good. How is it? Does it come with an in-built photoshop software or is it just an input device which you can only use when connected to the computer. Any idea what's the difference between Bamboo Create, Capture and Fun?

holy f++++ smokin cool sketch dude (you messed up the eyes

) but god damn that's one awesome sketch yaar

I have the cheapest wacom tablet. its wacom bamboo pen medium
cost me 3.5k and its very decent.
forget about software, all u get is trialware
moreover before you move the any drawing you will have to learn to draw all over again before you can even think of making artwork on a tablet.
Its messes with your thinking and perception. It took me a good long time to get used to it and now I can't write anything neatly on paper lol

There is also another member named 'Digibrush' who also have this kind of tablet(much more costlier than this,i guess).hook him up if you want the details.

after long time, i touched my tablet. initial stages of wall-e's cousin

you will have to use a pen tablet though and that means learning to hold a pen and draw all over again.

@saikiasunny: Did you draw it by pen?

@swapnil26 yes, i drew it with a blue cello ball pen, an apsara pencil and my chubby fingers.

a quick 15 min sketch.

awesome work @gollum....shading is something I can't do

added more details. Trying to make this as complete as possible is now getting on my nerves.
what I have in mind is cable tv wires and telephone lines. Some crap on the side of the roads like here in india
an AC or two. probably a cycle kept somewhere at the side of the road
door behind the girl. Girls caps needs some design too.

this fu(kin awesome bro... just awesome. shading on the skin is just spot on.

just my two cents, coz you said sometrhing was missing..

the balcony railing seems out of perspective - coz the right hand is on the railing, she's leaning over the railing thrusting "them" out

.. so the riling travelling into the image should be a bit lower, coz in proportion to her 'symmetrical' body, the left hand wouldnt be at the level of the railing.

the two boundary walls - definitely perspective problem. unless the road is too inclined.

the strap of the top - the right strap is tight so its hanging a bit off from the body. this should be the case with the left strap too, no? that if she is standing in a straight posture, which she is, i think.

by the way light act, the lower part of her body [legs] should be a bit less exposed. no source of light under there, right??

very good observation bro.

Yes she is supposed to be leaning more on the right hand so the right strap gets tight

the road is supposed to be an incline so the boundary walls get bent/weird. It looks like a screwup but the girl covers up the f.up with her sexyness

balcony needs fixing for sure

I might just remove the leg part completely and some of the red flower plant branches.

I just realized that the colors look like **** on my laptop. IPS display on my dell monitor rules \m/

hmmm.. if projecting her sexiness is what you want, then dont remove the leg. overdoing the red flowers will mar the pic.

get a bit more texture on the top [at the bend of the hip] and the skirt.

well face detailing is 90% complete in this screenshot
I'm working on her shirt right now. which is like 40% done along with all shadows.
I'm thinking about a background right now. Was thinking of something like shadows with white eyes in the background.
Like devils behind her.

^the hair on the right should cast a shadow on the right side of the face and eye, no??

does her face look too slim?

anirbandd said:
^the hair on the right should cast a shadow on the right side of the face and eye, no??

Hmmm...You are right, I did add shadow on the cheek, its faint.
on her forehead, have left it for the time being as I was trying to get it close to the reference.
Have to reduce the saturation on her Lips. Will have to use goddamn phtotoshop.

snap said:

dudee I've been staring at her face since 6am today, I can't make any difference now. Gotta go out look at some real people now :tired:

snap said:

I too feel it's too slim... also the lips are thinner compared to the original...

after a good nights sleep i figured the reason the face looks thin is because its not curved properly at the left side. i need to work on that.
tbh i felt that the lips were big. do you guys find the upper lip smaller or lower.
as always i like your input. please do mention things that you find out of place.

everything will be ok if you are able to sync the face according to the hair .... it looks like that a cut pumpkin helmet is added to the hair .... and yes upper lip is kinda thin a mm or two will suffice.

Maybe he didn't notice keenly to differentiate the real one and recreated one.

The nose is not that sexy :twisted:

i have not made the scar. poor thing.
im gonna make a normal left eye for her too

Gearbox said:

i re made the lips, red eye and area near it along with her shirt.
i'm struggling with the embroidery on her shirt collar.

lips need to be fixed..also the nose seems to be skewed towards the left more.... IMO...rest looks good

I agree.

abhidev said:

good observation. :+1:

I think its more because of the angle from the bridge to the tip.
I think I can fix that with a bit more shading.
I love digital art, you can fix anything :toast:

@Gollum really good work bro...

this was done using Corel Painter right?

Nithu said:

no, point tool sai. I hate painter as I cannot figure out the brushes in it. moreover sai brushes are like a pencil so it helps this traditional artist.

can someone point the mistake/oddness in the lips?
Oh and should I alter the eyebrows?
Updated
*fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/243/c/6/wip_4_by_niku4186-d6kg1s8.jpg

For the lips I think it lacks plumpness

if you observe carefully.... Currently it seems more like a pout... the shirt shades looks nice... Great job

Nithu thats awesome! Best post in this page.

pretty good but a bit of symetry is lost.
pointing at the right eye
also fix the Jaw. there is no symmetry in it. Unless you were trying to show that she is facing a different direction and the shadow was supposed to compensate the oddness of symmetry on the jaw.

When in doubt, use the almighty flip.

In real life, Nithu's image comes pretty close to how symmetrical typical human faces really are. I kid you not.

How do I make the collar apparent without using outlines? Pic related.

*i.imgur.com/15N4BfT.png

I would like to set the colours down in their rough locations before making a proper version. I'm using negative space for the neck.

what program are you using?
use light blue shade to give a border to the collar.

H

Photoshop CS6.

I want to avoid any and all borders. I am considering extending the blazer to make the collar, but that would be a violation of the limitation.

try using layers. making everything on the same layer creates problems.
Edit: I looked at this from my PC screen and wow. You need a lot of work and practice

try to get used to the tablet first. It took me 3 months to be a bit decent in my drawings with the tablet.
For starters, use a basic brush or best to try different tools.

Play solitaire with the tablet to learn about cursor movement

I am afraid actually what if I spoil my sketch. so i never tried to color. I only sketch with pencil. I did made the outline darker with pencil.
[MENTION=148045]anirbandd[/MENTION]: Thank you

Cool...it would look better I guess... Just my 2 cents

^you are saying right, it will look better but I'll spoil it if I do now. Have to practice first then I'll start using colors

The anime characters fingers.

her left hand pinky is a little incomplete hmm..
I wanted to hide the rest of her fingers in her hair.

I need to learn to color hair properly. I seem to struggle a lot with hair in color.

For Anime ...outline the strokes for hair and fill is with a color and add wavy lines for shine just like your avatar has .... anime characters do not have much differentiation of hair strokes.
The fingers of the right hand of the characters are pushed near the face so try to make them straight.
Otherwise this characters is ummmmaaah !

That anime sketch is pretty good.

New Girl

I am practicing fast paced sketching/outlining.
Usually I take very long to draw sketches.
*fc03.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2014/103/5/9/cap_girl_by_niku4186-d7ea3fm.jpg

To draw fast follow steps of drawing i.e first make anatomy structure, then make them solid and manage your background and then color. Don't know the steps for Anime but that's how I usually draw.

Mmmmhmmm!!

You have put in some neat work on those curvez!!!

I dont get enough time for doing sketches anymore, last i drew on these big sheets was like more than 1 year ago.
I know I suck at drawing hairs
and rightly guessed, many of these were drawn in a hurry, didnt give proper time.
I use normal pencils from B to 6B, dont remember the name of company - which has dark green coating.

I suggest you to get a steadler 0.5mm pencil. there is a cheap rubbry grip pencil that costs 70 rupees.
Also get a camlin nouvel 0.5mm
If you have good control over your hand, all you need is the 2B 0.5mm Pencil.
I am planning on drawing something today. its been a long time since I drew anything.

I dont feel comfortable with 0.5 pencils, because a break could ruin the sketch. and the pressure after break creates a small pit on the paper and ruins everything :[
also the normal pencils are good for shading, easy to cover area quickly.

yesterday i bought the mechanical pencils
1 staedtler 0.5
1 camlin nouvel pencil 0.5
1 apsara 4B & 1 6B
a drawing book

couldnt get kneaded eraser, have seen it in many vids.

will draw by finding some time

What were the prices of the Equipment you bought ? kneaded eraser is a pain in ass to find. Get from flipkart if you want.

1 staedtler 0.5 - 25
1 camlin nouvel pencil 0.5 - 90
1 apsara 4B & 1 6B - 5 each
a drawing book - 35

going to exchange the drawing book for hard covered one. forgot to about it and bought the one which has soft covers(folds)

I was wondering how much the kneaded erasers cost in stores, because there might be difference in store prices and flipkart prices.
i saw on fk, it says 164 + 50 delivery charge

Seeing all these sketches makes me wanna draw, but I am afraid of the blank page and the time required to finish a sketch.

ohhh....yea....I am also trying my hand in painting with color pencils but the quality makes a difference(also the skill

)

Gained some confidence from the previous sketch and now started with a new one on A3 size paper.
its still outline, finished off with hair bunches for today.
took 1 hour from blank to this much.

Found the drawings which i drew in year 1999-2000, and a few between 2000-2003.

The cartoonish looking are drawn when there was a show called 'Pappyland' which used to be telecast on Kermit channel.
The (old) guy used to draw those and i used to draw by looking at them on tv using permanent markers & crayon colors.
Others which are not cartoonish are drawn at home or school drawing hour.

Found the drawings which i drew in year 1999-2000, and a few between 2000-2003.

The cartoonish looking are drawn when there was a show called 'Pappyland' which used to be telecast on Kermit channel.
The (old) guy used to draw those and i used to draw by looking at them on tv using permanent markers & crayon colors.
Others which are not cartoonish are drawn at home or school drawing hour.

Yeah, old drawing can make you reflect upon your mistakes and correct them

Here, i found one of the episodes of the program.
skip to 6:40 to view the drawing he makes & 18:26 for colouring

nice ones [MENTION=265475]anikkket[/MENTION]

I'll also try to post my old drawings but some are like too old (before 2000)

here are some of mine. I used to sketch earlier, haven't done any sketching for a long time

The progress so far..
working on hairs.
Thanks to [MENTION=85950]Gollum[/MENTION] & some youtube videos, i am little bit more confident with hairs now

*s26.postimg.org/ts48lgh3p/2014_08_06_248.jpg *s26.postimg.org/q9s8p2g7p/2014_08_06_249.jpg *s26.postimg.org/5qxck02ad/2014_08_06_250.jpg

awesome [MENTION=271931]adityak469[/MENTION]

did you shade the last pic with pencil or a marker/sketch pen ??

[MENTION=265475]anikkket[/MENTION]
very good, just remember, hair not hairs
And yes, hair flows in a certain direction and is never straight - except for some Indian girls who do hair straightening.
remember to get those darks really dark, press down hard on the tip of the pencil. Also buy a white gel pen, it comes in handy when adding highlights to a sketch.
[MENTION=271931]adityak469[/MENTION]
I am not a fan of bleach but I like the sketches. You should find time to draw.

pencil. i don't like anything other than pencil for any type of drawings that i do :razz:

what pencils do you use...I have a normal pencil and it doesn't produce that darker effect...I have to shade 2-3 layers for darker areas

Face is yet to be done.
Hope this time the face looks similar

oh...you go from out to in....I go with the eyes an everything first and later everything else

lol I go from top left to bottom right as I am a right hander. But this is only in case of analog/traditional sketch.
Digital, I just start where i like.

abhidev said:

LOL. I used to go randomly before.
After watching a few vids on sketching where the artist used to do hair first then inner parts.
So trying the same since last 2 sketches.

got bored yesterday in class..teacher was away for some work..drew up this superman.
*i.imgur.com/XB9Vi2Pl.jpg?2

Clark kent is superman !!! :shock:

Hey, looks good.
symmetry is a bit off at the face and the right leg is very thin for superman standards.

Nice work [MENTION=173432]ashs1[/MENTION]

Btw, you still in school???

thanks [MENTION=85950]Gollum[/MENTION] and [MENTION=139494]powerhoney[/MENTION]

The sketch could've been a bit better had i done it with a pencil.. Just had a pen with me at that time so the leg had to be thin permanently..

Will improvise on it on a new sketch on sunday.

& i am in college.

good one [MENTION=173432]ashs1[/MENTION]

[MENTION=173432]ashs1[/MENTION]: that superman looks good. I can never draw anything in pen except stick figures which also takes 3 or 4 try. I can't imagine something solid, that's why i need eraser to make my sketches better.

Hey guys
I want to paint a modern art on canvas.

But I don't know how to use acrylic paints.I know use of water colors.

To blend colors layers I use wet brush over colors borders.
Can I use acrylic colors same way?

I use photoshop and painter11.
I use a basic wacom bamboo one pen medium.
All tutorials are on deviantart you just need to look for what you are trying to create.
There is no single tutorial for a complete drawing method.

Anyway, here is my new girl. She is not complete so I have not uploaded on deviant art yet. Best viewed on an IPS screen.

When you have something that you want to hide(like unfinished work) you can use the crop tool.

thanks guys. learning, all of that was homework.
This is entirely done in photoshop. Went for photorealism.

*i.imgur.com/BjVpAOE.jpg

^Thats so awesome mate, did you use a drawing tablet for this ? Also, the previous ones were vector art right ? could you link me tuts ?

nope used a mouse. You can see the jagged edges if you look closely. Yep previous ones are vector art.
Donno links to tuts, this is what the profs showed us in class. Pen tool is your best friend, just trace out the outlines and take it from there. For the frog, the shadows and highlights were entirely done using burn and dodge.

Agree, it's the best tool for tracing if you know how to use it properly. Also in Photoshop the refine edge is a very handy feature

Can you help me with the photoshop option. As-in where to find it?

Gollum said:

Refine edge is feature to refine the selection (marching ants)

1 Use pen tool to make an outline as proper as possible.
2 Once the path is completed, right click anywhere and select make a selection
3 then select any tool that creates a selection(magic wand/selection)
4 right click on the image and select refine edge

It will pen a window with several sliders
Adjust the sliders to make the selection as you want
There is a drop-down on top which changes the background of the area out of selection, in order to view whether there are any loose gaps are present
At the bottom there ids dropdown to select what should be the output(selection/mask etc)

My art .....look at the album Imgur

botmom?
wish there was a way to embed albums

Nah, I saw tincans work from deviantart so was free in school to copy from what I remembered. And it's male, batman

what is the third one? It's the entire thing?

My classmate asked me to make blowing planet, so I tried.

liked the energy arcs
the skull figure is doing the destroying, I suppose

Thank you, no that skull figure was actually my attempt to make half blown terminator, I just doodle such stuff......will post NY sketchbooks tomorrow, there's a lot more

Draft version
*i.imgur.com/E7tkDZj.jpg

Another draft. Not like the reference.
*i.imgur.com/uzV4N7P.jpg

Try not to draw the teeth and concentrate on the outline.
I know it can be frustrating at times but the more time you spend on the outline the better your sketch is gonna be.

I can tell that you made this in a hurry and probably within an hour.

It can take me upto 3hours just for the outline. I am not satisfied otherwise.
shading takes me less than 15minutes lol
hair can take around 2 hours if I concentrate too much else lesser.

Yeah, it's the draft. Need to work more on it. I am drawing because one gets better with the number of hours invested. Hair will take lot more.

How do you do the shading ? Blending with fingers ? What are your strategies to draw outline ?

More than the extra fineness I am trying to replicated the reference photo. First one came out great. Looks almost like the subject. Second one, not so.

Yeah, it's the draft. Need to work more on it. I am drawing because one gets better with the number of hours invested. Hair will take lot more.

IMO, try not to just make the outline. Try to understand head anatomy. If you draw the head outline without knowing what should go where. You'll end up drawing Lizzy Velasquez. Anatomy also helps in designing own characters and trying something new with your own style.

Haha...thankfully I can no longer draw out of proportion.

What do you suggest on anatomy ? I have been reading books on it.

Make a profile on pinterst and I'll share a link for a whole list of links and boards having images that you can use for reference to learn anatomy. If you are a noob, then also look for a dew videos. But only practice can make you Better.

Nowadays working out girls are very popular, you can draw them and enjoy at the same time XD

Note that I just want to concentrated on Portrait (face). Not interested in body anatomy.

Yeah, practice is most important.

for outline,
If you are doing a commission or a known figures portrait, then use a grid.
3x3 grid is good for portraits.

Never use your fingers for shading as fingers contain oil and that can ruin the sketch.

I use paper blender, cotton and sometimes toilet paper.
I usually lay down a lot of dark graphite at a corner of the page and then take the color off it for going light to dark.
I never use pencil direct on the working area.

Also, scan your sketches. dont use cheap phone camera. Unless you have a good one.

I do use vertical and horizontal lines for the features.

I will use cotton. Will looks for paper blender. Thanks.

What do you mean by not using pencil direct on working area ?

Its been a long time since I drew something.
Today I sat down to draw again. Now I don't feel like going to gym.

I need some professional looking logo for my csgo team. Any one ?

tried to make a logo for my website. Any critics? Name is DesktopRigs.in
*desktoprigs.in/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/cropped-logo-render1.png

it looks like a bevel around a cone
if you follow some old school logic, there should be no colours, no shading, no highlights and shadows, and the whole thing should look good in monochrome or when printed in another medium (think keychain, stamp, embossed in stone) you never know where a logo might be used

don't need to listen to me though, it looks stylish enough for web

Thanks for the reply Anorion. Yes flat logos do look good. But with this i was going for a 3d Emblem style. that is the reason for the beveling and shadows

An excellent artwork by me.

Nice work fellow artists! :razz:

I'm posting a 3d render of Lamborghini Aventador Superveloce I did for the Humster3d car rendering challenge.
I was late for the challenge but i managed to finish this in the last 3 days. I used 3ds max.

Wow! Fantastic!..... How did you do it BTW? Some reference might help.

[MENTION=146650]nikhilsharma007nikx[/MENTION]: Thankyou. I did it in 3ds Max, rendered in Keyshot, post work in Photoshop and After Effects. This is a render challenge., I had a rough SV model which I customized to my taste, somewhat like Liberty walk Aventador look but still keeping Superveloce. Added skirting, lowered wheels and changed a lot of things. Then I took the model to Keyshot and textured, lit, animated and rendered it.

I really like the shoulder highlight..
Share the whole pick after its complete.
PS: you have a crazy fetish for naked tekken characters.

Hehe no just one character. And I like to see the human body [F] for its natural beauty. And the joy of drawing it.
This one is a work in progress with a little bit of color testing. God Bless IPS monitors.

I am so lazy. plus my right hand shoulder hurts because of sitting for hours.
I love knee high socks/stocking on girls. Sadly I can't see real life references

Joy of drawing. I know what you mean. Anyways. This one. The shoulders are very wide. The fingers are way too small and the hair do not go well with the shape of the skull.... Other than that, the abdomen looks good. Boobs are half done, they should look even evident after done.
Good job.
I have boards to beat. Will start my drawings after 3-4months. Then I'll be very very active here.

Shoulders look wide because of the puffy shoulder type of clothing. I will experiment with sleeveless

Yeah, I'm drawing without a reference to its a whole new difficulty level. So everything is imaginary and looks weird right now lol

Seems, like you concentrate on one area a lot. Looks like you are a portrait artist.
If you are going with whole body shots without a reference you might wanna improve upon your anatomy skills.
But I think, for this one in particular, it looks just fine. The hip shape and the thigh gap is just perfect, if you are able to complete and add all the details to the piece, it might look just great.
For future though, do look into improving anatomy skills and gesture drawing if you want to go ahead with full body pieces.

So it is entirely your original creation,even so you must have use some 'basic template'(I don't know much about image editing,just guessing here based on what limited info I have about it).

I usually look up an image on Internet for the outline for pose of the character.
Then I add a head.
If the outline looks ok, then I start the coloring work.
I will post a WIP once I go home.

If you look on the top left of the image, you will be able to see the whole sketch. I've only posted a portion of it here. Because the rest of it is kind of NSFW. lel

Got it.

Yeah I already saw the top left area

btw she somewhat resembles female characters from those chinese fantasy/historical novels.

would like to see start to end video, there is a ton of detailing here

Anorion said:

I was actually not taking a video this time. But I have layers of the workflow. So I think I may be able to create a video from it or a Gif that shows this from outline to full color.

Hi @Gollum

Many of old members aren't active anymore. so its really nice to see you back actually.

So, are you still drawing? What has changed since then in your artwork, e.g. using ipad or wacom like digital board?

I'm into biking now.
Got my 4th bike 4 months ago. Gen3 Duke390.
Drawing takes a lot of time and patience and as life moves on, so does priorities.

I do still draw from time to time. Just before COVID, I bought an ipad and used it till I got my office convinced to get me a wacom pen display. Unfortunately I used it so much for work, I just didn't feel like using it for drawing lol

I haven't drawn anything in a long time now. I'm into 3d now. But I don't create anything new or original.
