SailingThroughInfinity's Sketchbook

[SailingThroughInfinity]

Hello everyone! 

I'm glad to have found somewhere to post art again. Starting off this thread with an old piece from highschool before posting more recent work later on. 

[SailingThroughInfinity]

My current personal project. Still pretty messy with a lot of shorthand going on at this stage. If anyone has tips on how to convey smoke, please let me know!

Dang, you were already pretty good by high school. I didn't even start drawing until after I was 20.

As for smoke, I don't have much experience with that, but I looked around on pinterest and I think maybe this is a good approach: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/645844402829855371/

Seems to balance lost edges with thin, defined lines. See if you can find something you like more. Look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Yes! Traditional work. I'm looking forward to seeing more from you! Sorry, I can't offer an6 criticism or advice. You seem well on your way!

Great stuff. Hope to see more soon

Thanks everyone!

Here's where I'm leaving her. Onto the next!

[cgmythology]

Great work here! I love your most recent concept, very interesting theme and concept. Nicely done!

Starting point of the commission piece. I'll be redrawing her on a larger sheet of paper and adding a couple more things soon.

Finished commission. Working on a bonus page now.

Very cool, digging the vibe and rendering !

[Jephyr]

That commission piece is looking so cool. Please keep sharing your progress. It'll be amazing I'm sure!!

Thanks! Here's a snippet of what I'm currently working on. Hoping to finish her soon and get started on the next.

I don't have anything to add, but lovely pencil work.

[SailingThroughInfinity]

Thank you so much! It means a lot. Here's a bit more with an old concept.

Last night's abandoned sketch. Maybe I'll come back to her with more time and better lighting.
