RE: Rotten's Pocket - IrishWhiskey - 06-18-2022 It's been awhile since I flipped through your sketchbook Rotten. It's so inspiring to see the work you're putting into each piece. RE: Rotten's Pocket - RottenPocket - 10-08-2022 <3 Thanks for stopping by as always, Once again was late on a challenge - the CHOW has been extended but I have done what I can with this one. I reckon I would change the tentacled to curl around and look more like they're supporting a heavy weight for the book, and pay more attention to costume... Save that energy for the next one... RE: Rotten's Pocket - JosephCow - 10-09-2022 Awesome! Love that a lot. It really captures the vibe. I'm going to try and get one drawn, too. RE: Rotten's Pocket - cgmythology - 10-15-2022 Great work with your latest, really strong character design there, very well drawn! RE: Rotten's Pocket - RottenPocket - 12-04-2022 Thanks both of ya - I do want to participate more in group challenges I dropped the ball on the last one. I managed to get the ball rolling this morning though and put some lines down... Originally was meant to be a Naga but at the same time mermaid fits better me thinks... RE: Rotten's Pocket - JosephCow - 12-05-2022 That's awesome. The drawing of the goat leg, and the way her fin curls around is really beautiful. RE: Rotten's Pocket - RottenPocket - 12-08-2022 Thanks Joseph I'm calling it on this one. I think I was eager to finish this among a very bad week...It's OK...if I only took some more time to embellish the underdrawing first I think I would have had a massive improvement RE: Rotten's Pocket - RottenPocket - 12-10-2022 So we hit the force restart button on this one. RE: Rotten's Pocket - RottenPocket - 12-14-2022 Bloop... Still not very focused but it's something. RE: Rotten's Pocket - cgmythology - 12-17-2022 Incredible linework there, love how you tackled the characters and the detailing is insane! RE: Rotten's Pocket - RottenPocket - 01-01-2023 Thank you, probably too focused on the little things again that I didn't see the overall shape still needed work. --- Good Golly Gosh I do believe these classify as studies... Started as a warm up, decided to just do a whole bunch of small mini paintings of seafood ingredients. RE: Rotten's Pocket - cgmythology - 01-03-2023 Nice work! They look delicious! RE: Rotten's Pocket - Dominicque - 01-03-2023 Rotten, I really think you should look at doing editorial illustration for food magazines/articles, I watch Holly Exley's videos and there's definitely a market and your renderings look great! RE: Rotten's Pocket - RottenPocket - 01-12-2023 Thanks, for the recommendation! I've subscribed. I follow a few like her, Minnie Smalls and a few botanical illustrators. I ended up having stickers made, so it was a fun little mini project. I'm back at my day job now so I will have to make time for the next one. RE: Rotten's Pocket - ballpoint - 01-13-2023 OMG! I LOOOOOVE the SHRIIIIIMP AND LEMONS! So cool! RE: Rotten's Pocket - Dominicque - 01-13-2023 They remind me of old Victorian wood engravings, but coloured. Deffo would look in to setting up a shop to sell them. Etsy, seems like the easiest. These are all digital, right. No problem, I came across her when I was thinking about the sorts of careers illustrators can go into. RE: Rotten's Pocket - cgmythology - 01-19-2023 They came out great, very rich illustrations with some great detail work! RE: Rotten's Pocket - RottenPocket - 03-02-2023 Thanks for everyone's feedback. I've poked around at POD services again. I think I'm also wanting to hold out for artwisp/ art page to go live for an all in one website. I haven't done anything else since these experiments. I've been sick and when I'm not I'm a corporate zombie. Couldn't get a hold of any new ideas or a good foundation from previous sketches, so I've hacked and rehashed this one. Still wanted an overwhelming amount of feathers and this time took ,y blinders off and didn't half arse it by mirroring. The sword didn't make any sense with the sheath being shorter than the blade so working on making that longer and more Arthuran design later. Re,over the crown, felt like it needed something, didn't want to mus the hair, made a floaty halo crown. So now it's like an achievement angel, you pick one of three objects as a boon. Power wisdom or courage kinda deal. Costume edited to something more romantic. The other had started off based on a lot of tudor costume but now more fantasy, and just fashion rules in general with using repeated form throughout the piece like the frill. Fixed the face, which I obviously didn't care ,uch about before. Anyway, it's kept me occupied this week so far. RE: Rotten's Pocket - RottenPocket - 03-07-2023 I'm just killing time with this again, reworking the same thing over and over. I didn't quite get over whatever bug I had and it developed into a bad case of bronchitis so I just noodled around while wheezing and coughing my lungs out at some point I need to start making money again as I'm pretty sure I've used up all my sick leave, so I'll shelve this one again as I hook up my work from home setup. I could probably redo the wings, using some feathers sampled from what I've got there, to get more consistent shapes. I did the same lace detail as the first version but I think I can remove it, put some piping or other trim there instead. Anyway, It's not new or amazing but it's something and I have a low bar these days. RE: Rotten's Pocket - Leo Ki - 03-09-2023 When I grow up I want to draw hair as you do. Then I'll aim for the feathers, a century later. Get better soon and keep creating! |
