 Listen on! Listen on! This is the truth of it. Doodles lead to drawing, and drawing gets to painting, and that was drat near the death of us all. Look at us now, busted up and everyone talking about hard rain! But we've learned! By the dust of them all, Creative Convention learned. Now, when men get to Doodlin', it happens here, and it finishes here! Two men enter; one man leaves. Post apocalyptic blogs for inspiration: http://post-apo-look.tumblr.com/ http://postapocalypticflimflam.tumblr.com/ http://postapocalyptic-futuristic.tumblr.com/ http://postapocalypticfashion.tumblr.com/ There's a ton of post-apocalyptic art out there to draw inspiration from, so here's some apocalyptic real life locations Chernobyl Exclusionary zone      Hashima Island, Japan    other abandoned places around the world     Anyway I found out that one of the cancelled Fallout games ("fallout extreme") was going to take place here in the Pacific Northwest and whelp

Because I always strive to incorporate constructive criticism:dog nougat posted:Nice. Feels a bit unnatural since there's no reflected colours happening, like the hair would make the skin kinda pinkish/purpley & her hand would have some green highlights. Crap posted:why she topless

I did a child goblin witch. I'm torn on whether I should bother inking and coloring it but I think it's pretty cute regardless.

Not a drawing but instead a photoshop composite of gallery work I have seen since living in L.A.  Click here for really, really big. Great theme this month.

I think you found a good balance between defining shape through lineart/colours here. Last night, I wanted to do a velociraptor. Someone who liked the "food items on chickens" pics I did for the food theme asked if there could be a burrito on top of it.  Yes. Yes there could.

You've seen those "deep dream" google image recognition pictures where the program shows you what it's seeing in a picture, right? And it's so many dogs forever and ever into infinity? If you're not familiar, here's a ton of them and there's some recognizeable as NSFW even after the mutation. I tried to draw one. I liked the idea of drawing, of making an interpretation of an image that's been interpreted by a weird algorithm, from a photo of a sculpture. It's so far removed from the original. Artception!

I love when the weekly drawing event has a once a month painting session. Longer poses makes it easier to paint. I just wish acrylic didn't tear so much. Oils don't seam to have this problem.

Few things from this month so far, Testing some limits with a javascript library (Leaflet.js!) I put this silly thing together. Bit more coding than drawing, but I drew a lot of cats for it, so I thought ya'll'd appreciate it still.  Show poster...  ...recently got hired to draw some text book graphics and had to take advantage of the opportunity to draw some dragons every so often.  And a portrait.

Reene posted:lizardsnakelady You can go very minimal and still convey the presence of scales:   Or you can go considerably less minimal, but still avoid rendering every detail 100%:  There's a lot of ways you can handle scales. In the end, the best advice is probably the usual: have reference and do studies of actual critters. Experiment and find what works and looks best for you! There's not only so many ways to handle scales, but there are so many varieties of lizards and snakes that it really depends on what you want. I mean, the coral snake study up there has smooth, diamond-shaped scales along the body, but something like a bush viper has more pointed, leaf-like scales. It's just a tried and true method. v  v Sorry it's a bit unhelpful to the actual rendering part. That really does depend on what you want, sometimes it is just as simple as some shapes dotted out. Or it can be as overly messy as "put down undercolors, outline shapes, blend shapes inward, erase chunks, just frickin slam the eraser against the tablet repeatedly, etc".Generally though: - You can trim a lot of fat and get away with just some clever stippling and/or erasing here and there. - Try to be conscious of where the drawing stands. eg. you can render lots of/each and every scale if you've got the desire and patience for it, but it's easy to hit the point where all those details end up visually distracting from the whole. - For real do studies and have references.

Thank you for all of this! I think I did a sort of okay job to convey it in those I just know I could have probably done better. I'll keep these in mind for my next attempt.

genesplicer posted:Even more sweet freaking stamps! OK, I need to know everything about this now. How do you transfer the pics onto the rubber? Is stampin' rubber something I could've been buying as huge slabs all this time? I love stamps! Even more than I love jars! Could I have been making stamps for myself ALL THIS TIME?  Tell me your secrets! Let loose the flying turtles of war.

I did stamps back in school. It's basically rubber glued to a piece of wood, pretty sure you can buy it in any craft store. I had (probably still have) a special little chisel with changeable bits. The way we transferred the image was just to draw it on a piece of tracing paper, then cover it with chalk or charcoal dust, then flip it over upside-down on top of the rubber and trace it.
