I've been trying to spend a bit more time drawing on the go lately, in a small A6 sketchbook. This is a quick drawing of me and my bf, which I did in the past week. I quite like it.. I'm no good at drawing a realistic self portrait (no idea why) but this seemed much easier. It was lovely to pick up my markers and colour pencils again though mainly. I've also included the part completed one as it has a nice simplicity about it, I think. :)
Have finished the male character now, going to move onto colouring the female character next! :-)
Done some character painting this time. Still really enjoying this!
Now you can see I've added the final lighting effects and also the fire! I need to add the christmas decor and the background will be finished. I will be hiding the lighting effects whilst I paint the characters, though, and just showing them on the final result. I'm really liking how this is turning out already... :-)
I think to date I've spent 7 hours on this piece so far.
Ok, at the top is WIP 4! I've painted in most of the background now (just need to add a cosy fire to that fireplace and some Christmas decorations!).
The bottom picture, WIP5, shows how I've changed the colour scheme. I like this one more, its warmer and more appealing so I will stick with this one for now, methinks.
Flat colours for the commission I'm working on. Next, for the background. :-)
This is (hopefully) the final sketch for the commission I submitted concepts for yesterday. I really like this! God bless Posemaniacs.com though, that site is great for pose stock to help with anatomy! I'm having a lot of fun on this piece so far!
Subject to the commissioners approval I can start painting this up. I'm really looking forward to it!
Some concepts for a commission.. :-)
Ok so, Concept 1 (top) is meant to be the two characters laying down (on a bed?) with the male dangling some mistletoe! I thought maybe they could also be laying ona rug with a fire in the background, or a window to a snowy scene, etc etc.
Concept 2 (bottom left) is meant to be the characters snuggled up in bed.
Concept 3 (bottom right) could be a more easily adapted scene in terms of location. Indoors, next to a roaring fire? On a snowy hill? (etc etc)
