I cant tell you how many times ive tried drawing Frank Castle, countless times i guess (nah more like twice lol) and i never do him justice. Well i dont think i did it anyway with this one, but its pretty close to what i have in mind :p So this is The Punisher, my third attempt on using this arty brush strokes. hmm its getting addictive lol.
Good one buddy. Even the previous ones. One tip regarding brushes is to try to control that vibrancy/ excitement of using cool brushes, keep in mind that they don't make a beautiful painting, they just contribute! ;)
ReplyDeleteRegarding making the characters as good as you want/ or as other artists do, is to first learn the rules -- that are, have a good understanding of anatomy. I was just like you till one time, one of my very favorite artists (Kekai) recommended me to start studying more anatomy from some books, and ever since then I started my journey. Of course, Xia has TONS of character anatomies info and videos, so they kept on pushing my skill forward... So I am doing the same thing now... trust me, you'll see awesome results once you learn them!
This note applies to all the community (me included!) :)
Peace!
Thanks for the advice bro i really appreciate it. dont worry about the brushes, its just me experimenting on it now ;)anyway speaking of anatomy, I just bought a book on anatomy a few days ago, and im still going through it lol but i think its a good start for me, however i still i have a long way to go. I guess learning is a never ending process, just the speed at learning concerns me sometimes lol. i really need to get rid of distractions in my life :p
ReplyDeletebut yeah everyday that im here watching you guys draw (well submitted work that is lol) and Xia's tutorials makes me stay and want to learn more about art :)
thanks again bro!
