Lyraina's sketchbook

[Lyraina]

cracked: Thank you. That's the one I'm going with :) Use frustration as energy. Need to remember that.

Suira: It's weird, I think I remember from somewhere that edges don't really lose their sharpness, just contrast when going back in space. But thinking both of depth of field from photography as well as the fact that as an artist we can make everything a lost edge/painterly if we want to your point does make sense. Thank you for the overpaint!

photo ref



hand is better after the adjustments, still going slooow and careful with those





frazetta



feeling like a cheater using photos for ChoW (but it is interesting to play with and see its limits)



thumbs. thanks to Jaik for helping me and keeping me somewhat sane while doing those

Also, sorry for not commenting more on your sketchbooks guys. I feel really bad about that. But I also feel extremely overwhelmed lately and like a worthless shit for not getting more productive time out of my days (despite being super motivated), so I need to get that sorted out first. I'll return more comments when I'm back to a routine I feel ok with, I promise.
