Othrandir's sketchbook

[Othrandir]

more Horrible penciiees! :D

everything but the girl poses is from imagination

[Egbu]

sweet poses and dragons, the one thing I would say is some of your faces in your sketchbook look a little flat (which is pretty hypocritical coming from me lol) maybe so head construction can help a bit. Either way awesome sketches man :D

[midknight523]

nice gesture studies

[Othrandir]

Miles-E - No , it's not hypocritical...well maybe a little :D but it's totally ok. I think it's mostly because I draw on a deskt at school most of the time and almost the whole time I do that i'm suuper exhausted so I sink down on the chair and I draw at an angle .It looks fine from where I was sitting from but when I take photos or scan the sketches it's a perpendicular look. and except that...my faces are flat :D

midknight523 - Thanks :)



pretty much just doooodles :P



a pretty girl I saw on the bus , that I tried to paint when I came home


Eragon fanart sketch - Saphira



and a really crappy sketch

[Othrandir]

Just a ' lil bit of sketching before school :P

[Kike Rdz]

how did you do the last one ? I like the texture... by the way, nice drawings, keep up the work :)

[Othrandir]

Kike Rdz - Thank you! Well the texture is really nothing special , just a soft brush with noise and optimised using of the sharpen filter.





Ok. Let's start with the boring stuff :\

some eyes



figures then some proportion reminding sketch :D




some crazy fast terribly uninspired heads





did some life drawing of a skull...goooood is life drawing fun damn! I HATE PHOTOS NOW! :D



sketchbooky and digital doodles





and a painting I did through the night... probably about 5-6 hours. Finished 3:30 a.m. andI had school the next day...which is today :D Too bad I don't have much to offer from today.I'm just so freaking tired :D

[Othrandir]

starting with the studies as always

just 2 pages of anatomy





some photo studies



doodles



trying out a cool color palette I did. I suck .

[Othrandir]

kinda pushed on the studies today...thank god (or whatever :D ) the weekend is coming up.I needed the free time.

I'm super sorry about the super sucky pictures...


continued with the leg studies , some from imagination , some from Bridgman





started doing head studies



skull shit from photos



skull shit from imagination



trying to apply the skull shit with fast head sketches



two studies from photos





Damn...I gotta get my anatomy straight... :(

[Othrandir]

Some figures from mind





faces from mind



did this doodle in the morning - sorta tryed to get more of a movie-like feel...failed pretty hard :D



redid an old painting

before



after



I know it still sucks , but meh... I don't care :D

[Othrandir]

Quick study from this morning



sketch for a painting...damn it took me quite a while to clean up the lines



progress... still very much a WIP

[Kike Rdz]

thank you for the brush , the last painting is really good ,just Idon´t know...maybe it´s just me, but watch out for the perspective, the girl looks a little bit off? (sorry for saying that , not trying to be mean)

[Othrandir]

Kike Rdz - No problem, man. And yeah you're right...I'll try to fix as much as I can of the huge pile of problems this thing has in the process :)



holy crap...busy day today...I could squeeze out only these two little pages...some anatomy and page from imagination...

[Othrandir]

Some more pencils ( all from imagination ) and I slapped a bit of values and color on an old pencil sketch.So fun... :P

[BenFlores]

getting better nick :) are you using the sharpen filter? it looks too sharp in some places

[Othrandir]

BenFlores - Heh , thanks Ben. Yup using lots of sharp filter.I love the way it looks , but I try to use it in an optimized way - so it doesn't show.I copy the layer with the thing ( whatever it may be) hit the smart sharpen filter , fidle with it and delete the parts I don't want sharpened off the layer.I guess I forgot to unsharpen this time :D:D it's a really cool tool though and I love the way it looks.Especially with some noise effects. :)




penciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiils!! Pretty much all I could do at school today

Torso studies - the one where it says Bridgman references has bridgman references :D oh , and there's some in the first one too , the rest is from imagination











doodles :P

[DavidFisher]

[Othrandir]

DavidFisher - hehe , thanks man! suure dude u should definitely do that.Gotta find that balance between studies and imagination stuff :)

[Othrandir]
