DOOOOOOOOOOOOOODLE

More of a WIP than a doodle, but whatever...

Color thumbs...I did a few more, but I took them out.

Originally I was planning on doing #6, but now I'm not sure. I probably won't do #3 because the color palette is too similar to the other environment I have on my site.

    Wow...most intimidating first two posts the doodle thread has ever seen
    Throw some wakkawa, cake or bacon in there and we will officially scare everyone away from posting in this place.
    I love the crap out of you guys :) I don't think I tell you all enough how stupidly awesome and inspiring everyone on here is to me

    NightDragon: My favorite color thumbnails are 2 and 5. The juxtaposition of the cyan light with the environment looks really nice in those.

    He is a nocturnal predator that eats human children that play near the river bank.

    Cheers Beav. That's just my Empire Magazine page/poster for next month - not official or anything (I wish).

    The robocop is for a charity project I am trying to organise in which artists draw celebrities and characters in the style of these old school tea towels.

    It's so, so hard to draw like a child.

    I have to say I'm pretty amused by the concept that her light reading is just a big coffee table book of straight-on photos of crotches.

    Also now I know exactly what to get you in a hypothetical secret santa present exchanging scenario.

    Moss, Tam pretty much summed it up with the "visual wit" thing. It's always a joy to see your work. :D Robocop is also fantastic.

    Red - thanks! I think I'm going to go with 5. Seemed like lots of people liked that one, and that was one of my faves, too.

    Jpeg - great colors in that!

    wak - I really liked these last two pieces...looked a bit more sketchy/traditional. Do you work in watercolor or ink or gouache at all? It'd look waaaaay nice, methinks. :)

    well, Im glad somebody got the hint.

    I was going to add a title, but decided the crotch star was enough. I'll save making up smut titles for the next illustration i guess.

    If you're going to make a series of pictures involving girls cheekily looking at tomes of smut...that...that sure would be something.

    I've never understood why anyone would feel bad about this. You still need to be a good artist to put those colors to use. Not like you hear anyone crying foul about people working in traditional medium using the hundreds of colors at their disposal.

    what

    people working in a traditional medium have to train their eyes to pick the correct color
    if you use a color picker to pick colors off a photo in a digital program- circumventing the traditional process- you're not training your eye, which is why it's considered bad practice

    I also find it kind of funny that he seems to be implying that traditional artists would have more colors in bottles at their fingertips than the digital artist has colors of pixels in the infinite rainbow in the color window?
    You know painters mix the colors you see on the canvas, right?

    I think thats my favorite thing of yours I've seen.

    I hope you are not offended by this, but theres something less... uh, 'slutty' about it than the women in your other work. She seems more like a person and less like eyecandy. :^:
