Sneak peek - transparent drawing

WIP of redrawing one of 2019 works. (Edit: After the post I feel it's too rough to share, so I switched it with a bit more refined WIP)
重畫去年四月的作品途中 (po完不久後感覺太草率,修改過後又跑上來偷換圖)

Ahem, I'm still thinking to at least provide an illustration every month. I've stumbled too much on trying to paint/render, so this time I decide to only improve the method of making a detailed "drawing", applied with thin rendering.
呃嗯左思...

Desk setup talk & Doodles dumping

After changing the desk setup, it became faster for me to edit my thought process, so assumingly the new setup also improves my workflow! It's recommended to read the previous post first if you are interested to know some of my analysis of using Cintiq 24" pro.
自從封印超占空間的大顆呆之後,我的作業速度好像變快了,現在甚至可以一天內變出圖文並茂(?)的解...

Bigger might not be better

Before making a sketch dumping post,  I want to discuss my all thoughts about adapting to use Cintiq pro 24". I hope I've explained all issues as clearly as possible.
整理草稿時不禁想到,也該先來談一下為啥本月都在撇草稿,原因還是老樣子,對於前年購入的那塊巨大Cintiq適應困難。總之花了不少時間總算整理好感想,希望解釋得夠清楚。

All these are just personal opinions, and I didn't measure every mentioned angle/...

Sneak peek - April sketches dumping 本月塗鴉&感想集預覽

Still preparing. I want to take some time for sharing the thinking process, brushes, tools...etc. during recent weeks, the result and full pictures will be posted as an HD 2+ post within 1-2 days.
熱了一整個月的身,囤了一堆試筆刷/試軟體時塗的鴉,雖然沒能肯定自己找對方法,想說還是上來丟丟圖順便整頓自己的大腦,全圖和過程感想(含筆刷)可能晚一至兩天就會放上來,僅二鎂以上會員可觀看。

It has been a while

A quick update, here is the Kars illustration WIP I'm currently working on.
速更一下目前的卡茲插圖進度截圖。

A week ago I was still expecting that I'll fail at dealing with his hair, and now the worry is gone! I can define and design the forms, with the freedom, complexity, and fluidity which I'm quite satisfied with. The next challenge is to define his muscles and limbs. Because of all the failed attempts to complete any work for years, I don't want to be too hyped ...

5 WIP/Practices & thoughts about 'painting loosely'

Homework time again! Here are some attempts during this month. It will take too long to explain each process so I want to cut to the conclusion first. My biggest problem is that I find it almost impossible to finalize an illustration if the painting methods have poor compatibility for 'loosely painting'. By loosely painting--pardon my lack of vocabularies--what I mean is 'not perfectly rendering everything', by freely using strokes, textures, limited values, etc.. If a painting process requir...

October reward delay & November billing cycle paused

Hello everyone, it has been a while again. I have been struggling for the progress to share works or recent activity because, for years, nothing has been really going smoothly and my energy is pretty much dried. I am thinking, probably for now, it is too much weight to run a Patreon with monthly rewards schedule.

Details vs readability

Sorry that I'm still behind my work, but I should at least share my progress and thoughts before the end of this month. In one of the previous posts, I've mentioned that I'm temporarily ditching the big Cintiq pro and working on a smaller device for painting.
抱歉本月依舊沒能如期完成插畫,總之月底到啦還是該上來說點什麼。2019-09-29 16:06:25 +0000 UTC View Post

Overcrowded fan convention

September housekeeping

First of all, I need to apologize for the absence of August posts. I wasn't in the right mindset last month for sharing anything positive. So again, I paused the 9/1 billing cycle.

Processes & SAI brushes & thoughts about pen pressure control

Time to make a report of processes and share brushes! This month I went back to PaintTool SAI for gaining more control of drawing. So you might notice that the 2 WIPs have more detailed and dynamic forms. Here are the processes:
又到了交報告的時間(不如說已經遲到了),這次是兩張WIP稿的過程和SAI筆刷,可能自我感覺良好,這次畫出來的造型看似沒那麼呆板,大概是SAI的筆刷容易控制的關係吧。2019-07-31 16:33:24 +0000 UTC View Post
