This month's theme is Spiders      Fun fact I had to watch the movie "Arachnaphobia" dozens of times as a kid because of the 5 minutes of Venezuela in the beginning. That and the lovely racist Tim Allen movie "Jungle 2 Jungle". gently caress Tim Allen.

Spiders are spooky. So are ghosts. Have a cheeseburger ghost.

Non-spider-themed. I feel pretty good about this one even if it doesn't really look like the guy I was trying to draw. Usually my drawings look inhuman.

I made a stupid alliterative picture. dead donut  Are you using any references for this? I'm inclined to believe that you're drawing almost primarily from your imagination. That left hand of hers is pretty jacked up looking, considering you're going for a reasonably naturalistic sorta feel. Large portions of the piece are disjointed and drawn from different perspectives, making her look cobbled together and have bizarre body proportions. When drawing any figure from imagination, your own body provides a great reference material. I recommend you try drawing your hands, like a lot. Not just your non dominant hand either, use your non dominant hand to draw as well, it's really good practice. It also looks like you're drawing from the wrist a lot too. It's certainly OK to move your wrist as you draw, but draw from the shoulder as well. Your linework seems uncertain and sloppy, but I can see you improving. Put your body into it dude. I also can't reiterate enough the importance of life drawing to help you improve. Even just still life arrangements are super helpful with drawing forms and light/shadows. One more thing, what hardness pencils are you using? It kinda looks like you're sticking with one hardness. I personally find it really helpful to do a loose sketch with a fairly hard pencil, like a 2h and then jumping up to a F for more finalized lines, and then a 2b or 3b for the darker/more prominent areas. YMMV.

It's not a spider but I am just about done with this thing I started last month. I'm sure there are lots of spiders hiding in the grass around the menhir. Also a progress .gif

The infinite canvas is neat and well-executed, but I was less pleased with the multitouch controls. More configuration options would be nice. I still much prefer Manga Studio. Always worth trying out new tools, though- thanks for the recommendation.

Here is some life drawing from the other day. Never seems enough. Oh - I am using mechanical pencils because I prefer them. Also - you are correct that I don't use an easel / stand enough when I draw.

Scathach posted:Christ that is the cutest comic. Please keep going It's been a long time since I've worked on something like this, and I think this comic is generally a lot lighter hearted than my older works. The process of making it is sort of theraputic. It means a great deal to me to hear that others enjoy it as well.

I've not been posting because I was working on a project for a friend, illustration for some writing she's doing and I'm not supposed to show the work before it's "published" online. Rest assured though that it had nothing to do with spiders. However, I'm free from that now so spidercats again.
