Holy shit Nic, I cant thank you enough for that post! I dont think anyone had ever told me I had clarity. And you actually mean it too!
I've been seeking a style without outlines forever and it led to much lack of clarity. I'll show you http://vimeo.com/17203581 it's fucking ridiculous XD
So eventually I ended up doing this B&W thing and I cant possibly thank you enough for helping me see it did work and for telling me where that comes from, I'm gonna eat and breathe Arthur Wesley Dow.
I am aware that in the form I'm doing it right now this isnt worth a finished image, but I want to find the way to get there and you're giving me the faith that it's possible. I can rock this thing! I'mma learn the fundamentals and do all the outlines and details and skulls and cubes I have to, just so I can make this work!
Really I cant thank you enough =) it already feels like this place will mean as much to me as pixelation =D it was really awkward to show this with all the wonky wonky anatomy and the crappy anime-ish eyes and all the shit but you're making it worthwhile =) thank you
I think I should say, you might notice a tinge of too much insecurity here, it's because I'm pushing 30....I feel like this level would be ok if I was 20-23 or something, but I feel waaay behind, maybe you guys should work that into your calculations :p
BTW if you want any comments on gif animation feel free to ask me, or the guys at pixelation! h the forum is not as active as when it was in it's prime, but there's still that good C&C community there =).
@JJ: I do see that they are not renedered enough for a finished illustration, and I will work on that, I'll do it as excercise but this sort of style is what I want my stuff to look like, I know I'm not good enough at it for it to be a final illo just yet, but I'l work to get there
