@smrr - Thanks!

Here's a few new doodles testing out some newer, adjusted brushes.













RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - John - 04-07-2016

Your foundation needs a little bit of Loomis. Your proportions are way out of whack..

Juuust trolling! Man. If this is your sketchbook, how much better is your portfolio?


RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - Piotr Jasielski - 04-07-2016

Lovely stuff, the way you capture facial features is awesome!


RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - tripna - 04-08-2016

The last set you uploaded is amazing man, i think you should stick to that brush you seem to be very comfortable with it


RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - BenFlores - 04-10-2016

Thanks for the answer, definitely helped a lot. It gets kind of abstract when you think of what shapes make up a certain character.

Nice updates ! Always leaving here inspired.


RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - JavierP - 05-04-2016

@John - Thanks man! I do think I could use some more Loomis in my life though.

@Piotr Jasielski - Thanks!

@tripna - Thanks! I'm trying to get comfortable with digital in general so your comment means a lot.

@BenFlores - Glad I could help. The conceptual stuff can be a bit dense and I worry that I can't communicate the information clearly.


Some newer stuff. Trying to develop a process to move from sketch to finish in a controlled way, with predictable results.

Aaah yes, the dream <3

*swoons s'more over updates In love*

@smrr - Thanks! Yes, finding an efficient way to work is essential to producing consistent, professional work. However, don't think of it as a 'dream'. It is an absolutely necessary part of your development as an artist, if you wish to become a working professional.

Welcome back! Hows the digital process coming? I see you found a nice chunky texture brush for sketching :D


RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - DK - 10-28-2016

Masterful work in here. This collection of inktober drawings look so well done they're screamin to be put into a book, and I love that each one of them has a story to tell.


RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - Ice Rider - 12-26-2016

Really cool stuff from inktober, these are good technically, but I also like ideas.
Waiting for something new :)


RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - JavierP - 09-03-2024

@DK - Hey thanks! I really appreciate that!

I have not been here in a while, but something just made me feel the need to check back here. I have been a working artist for most of my adult life and I see how things are changing in the art world lately. I think, more than ever we need to get back to our roots and make real images again, using real media. I still enjoy digital drawing for its ease of accessibility and I hope to share some of my work with you again.

These images are all digital. I feel I have made a digital pencil I am finally happy with after a few years of working on it. Now I am working on paint brushes that suit my needs.















RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - one_two - 09-03-2024

NIce!


RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - darktiste - 09-03-2024

So when are you getting back to traditional?

That ink stuff is where the money at.


RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - RottenPocket - 09-03-2024

Kudos for making digital work for you. I also spent a lot of time and care trying brushes that emulate traditional media, curating a group I was happy with.

You're definitely making it work for you.


RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - JavierP - 09-04-2024

@one_two - Thanks!

@darktiste - Haha, I draw and paint with traditional media 5 days a week all year for my regular job. I use digital for fun or some small freelance work. I wouldn't say I need to 'get back to it'.

@RottenPocket - Thanks!. I am approaching digital work from a very traditional mindset, unfortunately. In real life, we don't have undo and that is a real motivator to not make mistakes. I'm still working on it tho!








RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - JavierP - 09-08-2024

A few more digital things. I don't get a lot of time to draw anymore unfortunately.










RE: My New Digital Sketchbook - RottenPocket - 09-08-2024

I feel like you'd be great at some really pulpy covers and posters.
