The picture above I drew out of boredom.  Lol.  I just sat down and drew some odd thing.

These are pretty good, mate. Better than what I can do, at least... you ever draw like dark characters... like Naraku or um... blast, what the devil was that man's name... um... gosh, well whatevah.
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Lavata on September 16, 2006, 12:40:22 PM
Well....I drew Naraku once.  That was a year or two ago though...


And I don't know of that other person, seeing as you dont either >.> lol.

Thank you all for the comments.
Title: Re: Art by me =D

Ah, I remember now. Hakudoshi... one of Naraku's incarnations... awesome child... kinda creepy though.

I don't watch nearly enough anime to have a clue as to what a Naraku is...
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Cody on September 16, 2006, 05:46:29 PM
Naraku is the kick-ass evil half-breed villain from InuYasha.
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Lavata on September 16, 2006, 05:51:43 PM
Yeah.  He is basically a god-like creture who can't die.  Well...he can, but it would take quite an ammount of time to do so.

Here is some kind of cover page that is not yet completed.

I can't draw females.  It's so hard!

You seem to be good at drawing feet, and that's a lot more than most anime artists can do. ;D
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Lavata on September 29, 2006, 06:01:12 PM
Omg.  Second or third time Yossy has posted in one of my topics  :)  lol.

Yeah.  Drawing females it hard...but I seem to like it better.  You may think I'm good at drawing feet but I don't >.<

I HATE drawing feet and hands.
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Yossy on September 29, 2006, 07:35:26 PM
How much one likes or dislikes a particular aspect of drawing has little relationship with how well one actually does in creating that aspect.  I like drawing female characters but suck at it; I don't like drawing anime but people say it's awesome.

Post by: Yossy on October 02, 2006, 11:59:52 AM
The dude on the left is definitely wearing White Mage robes.

Your profiles need work.  The human face is not a straight line with a pointed bump in it for a nose.  Find some photos of people in profile or something and study them.  Look at a bunch of different people, too, to see how much profiles actually vary.
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Lavata on October 02, 2006, 06:56:59 PM
Tis not a white Mage robe!


And yeah, I know I need work on the profiles.  I'm trying to search for a few thigns to help me out.
Title: Re: Art by me =D

Post by: Lavata on October 03, 2006, 05:47:23 PM
Well, if that's what you want it to be, then it is.  I didn't want to leave it bare so I tried to add something to his clothes that represent 'fire'.  Didn't come out that well looking likt that though. 

Alot of people I draw have those things on their clothes.

Here are some doodles I have been working on.  It's basically a practice sheet where I do things over and over, trying to get the feel for doing them.  I have been working on hands and faces as of yesterday.

That's pretty cool! In my opinion the faces are a bit too...straight (square-ish?). But it does add a neat look, so I can't really say it's bad or anything. :P

Well...as you can see in this next one: it WAS going to be a doodle page...but I started drawing something and worked on it from there.  The only real thing I want to note is the man to the left part of the page.

His head is supposed to be big, lol.  His nose is also suppposed to be like that.  I think your the first person to say you liked him best.  Mine is Wrath (yellow-haired man.)

Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Lavata on October 08, 2006, 11:08:00 PM
So do I.  I can't draw girls that good though..T.T


Girls are alot harder to draw than guys are.  It is much harder to draw a hot/pretty looking girl than it is to draw any kind of guy.  Women have more corves and softer features, which is something that I am not used to drawing.  SO, along with many other things, they are also something I ned alot of work on.

OK.  Well, here is another one.

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/41114739/

alright, its good, except for a few things.

The eye that is further away from the viewer is a different structure (has a corner, is closed) compared to his left eye, which is open curves. Also, the left hand (and this is a common mistake) shouldn't be horizontal to the ground, but sortof at a curved angle with the thumb on the lower side. its a bit hard to explain though...so...yeah

It's good and helpful.  I know I missed mentioning it so I just waited for you to mention it, since I knew you would.  It wasn't ignored, I don't ignore stuff unless it's complete spam.If you toook the time to look over the pics then you shall be noted.

ah, ok, cool.

and wow, nice reverse phsycology thing.

and...yeah.

also, i like the character design ideas that are populate your brain. Wrath is good as well, but you should color the inside of his vest (e.g. on the right side *our left* of his body where you have it clear), so it looks realistic.
Title: Re: Art by me =D

Yeah...I should have made it darker.  It is shaded in, it just dosnt appear so in the scan.

Crop is removing the area around the image that simply has nothing to do with the picture.

The way to get rid of it is to select the part of the image you want, and then with whatever you're using go to edit or tools or something and find "Crop"

If crop isn't there, just do ctrl-x and create a new image and save it in that.

Ah, I thought he was biting his thumbnail.  I can't tell what his right arm/hand are doing, though.

I see that you're drawing guidelines to help with placement of the eyes.  My recommendation is that you stop doing that... guidelines are pointless...

That's just my opinion, though... If you find that they're helping you, you can ignore me. ::)

Guidlines can be good.  I know I use them, but I don't use them to determine the size of the eyes, it helps me shape teh head.


Anyway, Lavata, the left arm is completely off proportion
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: veltonvelton on October 17, 2006, 05:19:25 PM
I usually shape heads by drawing the right and left sides of an oc-thing-like-a-circle and then at the top, put the hair, and the bottom ha a kind of upside-down triangle, like: \_/

  --HAIR--
   |  00 |  <Like so (Do you like my eyes there?)
   |       |
   \      /
    \__/

For eyes, I draw a feint triangle and and an oc-thing-like-a-circle on it's side with points at the right and left ends, on top of that, then make the triangle inside of the oc-thing-like-a-circle a darker shada, then colour it.

     ________

^The 'head' of Lilith (not really.)  Just a guardian-type thing which extends from gate.  I know it's not as good as the first monster thingy I posted, but I just did these for fun.  I'm going back people for a while now though.

Lilith is one of the characters from..

Art is 99% experimentation.  It's good to hear!  Keep trying different things and find what makes you happy.  That's probably my favorite of all the works I've seen of yours, too.

Thank you both.  It seems to be kind of plain though to be your favorite piece, is it not? 
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Yossy on October 23, 2006, 12:36:12 PM
Not at all.  Mayhaps "plainness" is something you should implement into future art, in that case?
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Lavata on October 23, 2006, 05:53:40 PM
Wow.  Kind of hard to do though (for me anyway.)  Still...I think I should try it.  Thanks  ;D

I reiterate:  Art is 99% experimentation.  Often, a method you least expect to be effective has a profound impact on either a) your "style" or art in the future, or b) your viewers' thoughts of your work.

Don't center your art on pleasing your viewers, though.  What's most important is that it is right for you.

Thank you ^_^  I know that I have to find something that suites me as of yet.  I still try and expirament with things and try to get everything right...dosn't work out most of the time though.  Still...I wish I had photoshop...at least so I could tinker with things.  I can't even find a free download and I have no clue where to buy it.

^Kaza.  My most newest colored one.  I drew a picture roughly, fixed the bad mistakes, then I outlined it with pen.  once that was done I got tracing paper (hence why it's so...flimsy looking and wrinkled) and with a black pen, traced the image on to it.  I then colored it. 

Her fingers are a tad screwy (the ones on her right hand, the ones next to her face are supposed be be like that: they are folding inward, as if it were grasping something.) but that's just because I'm trying to get used to drawing them.


Well, any opinions/comments/suggestions,etc?

im actually doing that backwards, and art class (like, even smooth value shading) is hard as FUCK to do, because i have to develop new shading techniques, since in my drawings i usually shaded kindof...sketchily, i suppose, with like 5 grades maximum, where in art we need like 15.
anyways, i think youre choosing the right path (itll give me time to get better so you dont overshadow me :P)

ok. so the boy's waist up is good, but i think you really didnt put as much effort into the legs, as the porpotion is off and they look overall less detailed. the marker doodle is good, except for the shape of the head is odd.

that one is good, but the hand seems to big.
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Lavata on October 30, 2006, 07:13:22 PM
Yeah, I kind of figured that it was too big.  It looks as it the back of the hand is facing you (to me anyway) when it's supposed to be the palm which faces you (the fingers folded inward).  The arm also seems out of place..
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Lord Dante on October 31, 2006, 12:09:19 AM
well, i could tell that it was the palm, the way the thumb was, but the arm was out of place. it seemed like too much of it was behind the back.
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Lavata on October 31, 2006, 11:20:52 PM
Ohh....now I see.  The arm does seem to far behind  (to much of it is seen) than it sctually should be.  Thanks for the reply.

hmm...

i think i need to learn how to use photoshop as well...and also...Lavata...hmmm...maybe you should start drawing full drawings again, since this character "fades", even though its a good effect, you should still practice so you can be  good at stylistic and practical types of drawing.

Seems good.  Since it's a comical RPG, I think it works nicely.

I know I can't take credit for someone elses work.  I'm not one of those who just takes and claims it as their own ( I take and creidt the owner >.<)  Anywhoo....if I could that would be great.  No one ever wants to though...

Interesting. I  have no markers.  Well...I do, I just have sharpies...three or four of which I'm missing.  I just use colored led's to draw, they seem much more easy and manigable for me.  If not that then I would find someway to learn photoshop if I had access to it.
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Lord Dante on November 07, 2006, 01:52:37 AM
yeah...it seems photoshop would be easier, as getting shiny effects, etc...with markers is exteremley hard. *shrug* but, like everything else, it takes practice...
Title: Re: Art by me =D
Post by: Lavata on November 08, 2006, 01:31:48 AM

I'm guessing you mean 'drawing'.  But, anyway..yeah, that's about it.  That's the easiest way to do things. 

Did you ever try to show someone how to draw? It's mind numbing.  Lol.  My teacher told us to "draw lightly first, THEN come back in and darken it up".  Heh...that didn't work out so well.  Half of the class basically used dark lines first ( looking like they leaned on the pencil to it's fullest) and then ended up having to go through 2-4 sheets of paper to finally get it right.  Yes, I know it's not for everyone...but following those kinds of instructions isn't really hard now, is it?


Anyway...I'll have some new stuff in due time.  For now, however, I have to draw it.

Thanks.  He has no arms...so he can't really have gloves. He does, however, have large feet. And that scythe is his foot-thingy. There is a rason in why he was no arms in which I can't get into :P

hey, thats pretty cool. I like the helmet, the markings, and the gloves themselves...but i dont really like the arm position. It looks almost like they're bound to his torso, from what i can tell. Oh..the scythe is cool.

Thanks.  He has no arms...so he can't really have gloves. He does, however, have large feet. And that scythe is his foot-thingy. There is a rason in why he was no arms in which I can't get into :P


Huzzah! The not so good finished version which now has me dizzi from marker fumes :D

thats really nice. Especialyl the expression. I can really see his personality. My only quip about it is the top hand. It seems to be at a different angle than should be when holding a stave.
