    I'm trying my hand at caricature drawing again. Think I've improved a bit, still need a lot of practice though, but I had fun doing this.

    How do you like it?

    edit: my apologies for the cut-off part, badly scanned.

    I'm fairly certain I know the lady on the right.

    Nice work. Why didn't you draw her hair?

    This happens every time. I paint the large areas just fine, get frustrated when I come to the details, and block it in using my regular coloring technique. And then I realize that it looks better that way anywho. Bah. Bah, I say.

    Need to start getting more meat and potatoes and less candy and popcorn in my art diet. Painting from photo ref, had to use the grid method on the face (OMG I IS A CHEATER) to get even kind of close.

    I fucking suck at drawing women, I should probably try to get in the habit of doing ref paintings until I fucking suck less.

    there's nothing wrong with using the grid to get things right, but it doesn't teach much though. Are you making sure to draw shapes? It's easier to get a face (or anything) if you just loosen up and draw the shapes. Don't see it as a face, see it as a bunch of shapes. Also, you probably already know drawing from pictures takes out a lot of the challenge because it's already flat. You aren't creating an illusion anymore, just copying one. BUT, sometimes you have no choice cause no many people will pose nude for free.

    I'm pretty sure that he linked them because they're pretty fucking big. I'd not want him to use image tags on those.

    PA is evil: first they make me play more games, then they make me buy a wacom tablet, and then all remaining free is sucked into making doodles... then again, I guess it could be worse.

    Anyway, one of my first sketches in Paint.NET using my new Wacom:
    2006-120.jpg

    ok...I cheated by putting some initial lines on top of a photograph :P 90% of it is genuinely hand-made though! It's just that it takes ages to get the lines right if you're notused to tablets (traditionally speaking, I'm a charcoal and pastel man).

    Don't cheat. Cheating is bad... and doesn't help you develop smooth lines.

    That said, more pencilwork from the pencil camp:

    so true. also went much faster and better immediately when I took out the photo layer. I guess that's the seduction of the digital age...

    great pencils by the way. trees are an endless source of inspiration: each one is different :)

    Frank: looking good. But her head is sticking out way too far and is also kinda big. Fix those things and you totally got it.

    nation: Pretty nice little speed paint. Reminds me of okami for some reason. Also, that pose looks a little painful.

    Don't get too excited, with the grid method the only real test of is of one's patience. Luckily, that's just what I was after, something to counteract my usual... whatever it is I do.

    PS: Those are some uh...road cone-esqe breasts on that girl there.





    More ref girlies, no grid cheatering this time.

    And one not from ref, I call it "What if...the Joker was a Middle-Aged Geisha?"

    It actually progressed from being a rather buth white woman to a japanese high-school prettyboy bully to this. What the hell.

    The anatomy isn't too hot, but this is the kind of thing that happens when I start scribbling around - i try to develop negative shapes as I see them emerging.

    :^: Raven.

    I scribbled this today, and sort of like it, compositionally. I wouldn't mind finishing it but something looks fundamentally fucked (I mean besides scribbliness and lack of shadow); one of you can probably spot it instantly and save me hours of polishing a turd. <3

    The girl seems to have insanely long legs (or at least one of them), and imo it would be alot (and I mean alot) cooler if you lose the manga-face on her.

    Manga-face was accidental (and looking at this smaller version her eyelids just read as part of huge-ass shojo eyes, worsening the situation) and I agree it's appalling. Nice catch; good as gone.

    I think you're right about the legs. The stylized-ness kind of got in my way diagnostically.

    Thanks. :D

    No probs ;-)

    Also to be nitpicky, there's something wrong with her left index finger. If you look at the finger in 3 links, the one connecting to the knuckle being the third, either she's bending the first link without bending the second, which is impossible (unless you have hyper mobile joints) or the third link/piece of finger is simply too long, compared to the other fingers, and you ignored the second link - if you look at it, it seems as if the finger consists of two and not three links.

    I hope I make sense, hehe :S (If I don't, I could draw it out)

    Frank, the metal detector is awesome.

    nat, definitely ink the girl. On her left leg the calf area is a bit wierd (I think the meaty part of the calf is just a tad too low), but the shirt and her face are awesome.

    Squid, I don't mind the faces so much (at all actually). What's distracting me is the big guys thin, tiny little legs. Beef 'em up and you're good to go.

    I need your help, guys. I just can't nail one panel in my comic. It's suppose to be this teenage guy with a shotgun being on guard and pointing his shotgun at the guy laying on the ground who also has a gun in his hand. I wanted the PoV to be sort of from the guy laying on the ground looking up and still have both characters in the shot. I don't care if the perspective is correct or twisted to accommodate both characters, but as of right now I cannot make it work.

    I guess what I'm asking for is would somebody please do a quick draw over so I can have an idea?
