Old Drawings o' Mine

[Ma_Navu]

I found a stockpile of my old sketches while moving shit around in storage, some of which were actually good IMO. And this time, I have a fully functioning scanner! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

The first one is just crazy cool/good http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

I agree with qoxolg, i really like the first one and its wicked grin.
The CAST (Kireek ?) is awesome as well.

[Ma_Navu]

Thanks for the comments. Really appreciate it.

Also, I just made another one:

My Photoshopped version of the last picture has finally been completed.

That one burst, hm.. Whatif it were absent from the image.


I really like the concept though!

[Freshellent]

More awesome than I could have hoped for clicking this thread on a whim. Very cool.

I put it there mainly to give the HUcast an effect of a glowing eye, as if to say he's been angered or annoyed by the Booma. But, here's the version you were speculating about; nothing a quick Photoshopping couldn't fix.

Also, thanks for the comments, everyone. Hopefully I can renew my passion for drawing soon.

[Sayara]

That "shine of the hucast" could be done by giving the tiniest bit of white in the yellow.

Itd probably work better larger that way though.

This way i do like at its current size.

The only issue I see is that you don't like drawing eyes :[

[Sord]

Could that possibly be Alucard, cause that first one looks shit loads like him. On a non-art related note... WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN... AGAIN!

[Ma_Navu]

The only issue I see is that you don't like drawing eyes :[

Yes, I'll admit it to be true, I get lazy after a small while of drawing, so I cut corners by shading body parts to prevent the need to fill it in with details. D:

Yes, it is Alucard. Congratulations, you've successfully answered the riddle! Now come on down to recieve... YOUR NEW CAR! *applause + crowd cheering*

Anyhow, I've been somewhat internet-less for a while. In order to solve that dilemma, I increased my wireless router's range with a USB-Wifi plug stuck through the middle of a strainer. It boosted my signal like a satellite dish, allowing me to get back online.

Oh, also, I'll have a new piece up sometime today. I think it to be the best work I've done so far.
Here's a hint as to what it is: "HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!"

[Sayara]

Thats terrifying hhahahahhaha

[Ma_Navu]

Exactly what I was going for. :D

[Sgt_Shligger]

I have to say that's brilliant how you added the batman symbol in the Joker's throat!

[Sord]

someone needs to direct TOH here, he'd enjoy that

[Ma_Navu]

I'm having conflicted feelings at the moment. Should I try my hand at inking it and risking the ruin of the picture, or leave it as is?

[Sord]

I personally prefer no ink

[Ma_Navu]

So that's two for not inking it and one for it.

Yes, I counted myself twice, once for each side.

[Sgt_Shligger]

Well, Navu, when you ink you need a lightbox OR a glass table with a lamp underneath. You then use that to trace the original drawing with ink and therefor you don't risk ruining the original :]

Awesome, I need things I don't have. :D

[Sord]

I don't remember who did it as it was years ago, but I know there was someone one here once that had a CRT, flipped it on it's back, and used the screeb as their lght table. Course, most people have flatscreens nowadays, applying pressure isn't an option there ;/

Newest one. God I love it.

[Sord]

awesome dude, you have a knack for crosshatch

[Ma_Navu]

I blame the cross-hatching success on my new pen. Depending on the angle on which it's pressed onto the paper, the lines can become thin and inconsistent from time to time; I think it works very well in this work. :D

[Ma_Navu]

I feel like a sexist now: this is my first attempt to draw a female. Didn't come out anywhere as good as I thought it would. :/

You could always do what I do if I want to ink something... Scan the original piece, and make copies of it after darkening it slightly on Photoshop to see the pencil better. I have really shaky hands, so I dare not ink on an original piece of mine. =/

I really like your art though. I LOVE your cross-hatching. *.* <3

[Ma_Navu]

I've been inking a majority of my work, I just dare not do anything to the "Joker" image; it looks good as is.

Also, thanks for the complements. Seems as though many like my cross-hatching. :D

[SabZero]

Looks very nice, although the hatching is more like texturing since the lightsource and shapes are not clearly defined. Nice none the less. ^^

[Ma_Navu]

The fact that it came out the way it did, I'm happy. Originally, I just started doodling, and this was the end result. Wasn't thinking about shading or lightsources.

Thanks for the input, though.
