Experiment: Miles's Souvenir
Added 2019-02-01 05:40:34 +0000 UTCThis one was an experiment. With any image, it's always the line-art that takes the longest, and is the most frustrating for me. The colored sketches I do are basically images that skip the finished line-art completely, and for that reason that take about 1/4th of the time. So . . . This was kind of an experiment. I basically did a final line-art as usual, but I just didn't sweat it, and I didn't put that much effort into making it clean or nice. I just powered through, assuming that each pen-stroke was correct, and I didn't go back to clean anything up until the very end. This experiment was to determine if this method would be faster AND just as good, and . . . I don't know yet. I think it looks fine, and I honestly don't mind the thickness of the lines either. This one image probably isn't enough to go on, so I may try doing it with another Duke sketch (this originated as a Duke sketch of Gwen, and I expanded on it since I loved Spider-Verse).
I think it'll work though. I'm kinda digging messing line-arts again. For a very long time, I was convinced that my line-art had to always be as perfect as I could get it before moving on to coloring, but now I realize that a lot of the effort I was putting into images was a waste of time, since the details I stress over end up not having that much place in the final image anyhow.

2019-02-03 04:33:23 +0000 UTCThanks! I'm one of the lucky ones, in that drawing is what I like to do on my free time anyway, so work and fun overlap a bit (but unfortunately so do then my frustrations).
2019-02-01 17:57:39 +0000 UTCI call this a successful experiment. 😍

2019-02-01 05:49:11 +0000 UTCYeah, her head might be too big. And the phone is huge too. It's the size of a book. Ugh. I kinda botched this one in terms of proportions.
2019-02-01 05:47:30 +0000 UTCI like the pic, is that MJ on the end? If so, nice. I loved Spiderverse as well.
