master study update

i went ahead and colored this study after i finished the line work.  i am quite pleased with how it turned out.  

i'm going to keep doing master studies of Mark Shultz work and after a few more i will try doing other characters in my approximation of his style 

what kind of comic

just a quick question about whether you like to read black and white comics or full color.

i have this memory of being told that the west only wanted full color comics and i am curious if that is true at least with you all 

studies and practices

spent today practicing with my new Arthur and arnie rig.  i posed my arnie stick model to match some scans i made of Mark Schultz works and did some studies.  im trying to fix some of the bad anatomy habits i have, especially with arms and hands

arnie with the new simple model

yesterday i took the simple stylized model and changed its proportions to fit my arnie model. applied the rig and did a simple pose test.  i kept the head hands and feet from the old model .

there is a slight visual difference but i think it is an overall improvement.  the next step is to re-rig Arthur and Jenny this way and do some practice drawings

lusty longneck update

ok next lever is to add the pencil/inked line effect

philophana update

turns out i had already finished the other images.  on to the next chapter

pose practice

i want to get a more dramatic flair for my poses.  so i did some quick practices with different types of models

the first image i tried three different models with the same overall pose.

the first is my Arnie one.  using the DAZ gen 8 as a base and sculpting in the detail.  in my opinion it is the least effective base for quick dramatic poses like this 

the right most one is the simple toony model i have.  very low polygon and works well for any extr...

philophana update

finished the characters buuuut i am procrastinating on the background a bit.  will finish the line on the last few images before i come back and tackle this building
