Experimenting with highly saturated hues
RE: Crackbook - MrFrenik - 09-15-2013
You're doing really well to study perspective in conjunction with figure drawing/anatomy. Do TONS of this. It'll only benefit you in the long run.
RE: Crackbook - crackedskull - 09-17-2013
Thanks brother Freinik, I shall put these teachings to use.
Day 15

Only problem today was that I went too fast and loose. Maybe its energy drinks, maybe Nirvana, had a blast though, kind of calmed down at the last one.

Day 17

V 17
Decided to try something new, at one point the resolution got too pixelated (3rd drawing) so I upped it. Then I did some experimenting and god some nice colors and stuff out of it. Only fallacy was that I jumped into coloring it too soon, had to fix it many times, because linework wasnt solid.
RE: Crackbook - JonHop - 09-19-2013
Hey cracked, thanks for stopping by my SB the other day. This last pirate ship piece has a fair amount lof potential, nice composition and good colours for an eery night atmosphere.
I'd suggest working on your line quality when doing gesture sketches etc make bold confident marks, a line drawn confidently but maybe not correctly looks better than a line drawn correctly using little timid strokes to join it up.
Also your colours seem to lean toward very dark or the mid tone value range, doing some value only studies could help you with that.
It's great to see you putting in the effort to improve, keep it up! :).
RE: Crackbook - MrFrenik - 09-19-2013
Moving into values/color too quickly definitely got me into trouble when I first started out painting, and it still does now. Always make sure to have a clear idea of what your forms and design are, and you'll have no trouble at all painting them. Keep it up.
RE: Crackbook - smrr - 09-19-2013
^ MrFrenik speaks truth! I only just realised this about a month ago
It helps heaps if you keep your values clear, work your forms sexily and then have fun with colour O:
But whoaaaaaa Cracked!! Them LINEEEESSS!! Huuuuuge improvement since I last dropped by!
Keep kicking it!
