2draw.net - browse - Intermediate

I've had a reburst of motivation to learn how to draw a bit better using the ol' painting tools. I did a musketeer a while ago, but it was rubbish. I've kinda used Derek Yu's latest painting walkthrough to help me work out stuff about composition and building up a picture using brushes rather than random pixel work. Hope it's worthy of the Intermediate board. :P

Thanks guys. And thanks Sweetcell, this is not a demon, glad you recognized it. :)

Sweetcell (Jul 16, 2006)

Well it's obvious from looking at it he's more someone suffering from some emotional state and you portrayed it well. Your welcome clox. ;)

Pink Rain

Alethea-sama (Jul 14, 2006)

I dont know how listening to Ocean Breathes Salty, by Modest Mouse brought about this guy 0-o. YES its a GUY, just a very bishie one <3 LOL, His name is Rain! When I started drawing him, its started raining, and when i finished, rain stopped so I am calling him Rain. Freakiest thing ever XD.

May I please borrow him for a week or so? Think he'd come to Texas?... 'cause we need some rain.

I like the way the whole picture is composed... the way you have laid it out and the design makes the whole thing look like an oriental fan, and I also like the color combination.

Nyuusen (Jul 14, 2006)

I would make some comment about oriental being a rug and western assumptions and blah, blah, but I'd just sound stupid and I'm sure it'd come back to bite me...

ANywho...everything looks so nice, I love the style and the blue shading on the white looks quite nice to me, especially since it is pretty well done (I particuarly enjoy it on the face and neck), but I think the picture would be perfect if you just fixed the black lines...they look messy.

Alethea-sama (Jul 15, 2006)

@Torchic: Yes he is pretty X3 <3. Thank you!

@DBA: *Hands Rain to you* Off to Texas you go! Im glad you like the picture ^__^ Thank you.

@Nyuusen: I am haveing trouble with making my lines look nice but Im working on it ;D, and also i forgot I had my tablet options on so the lines are all faded ><. Glad you like the picture other than my nastay lines XD Thanks!

I enjoy your art, I really do. I love the design on this, and the FINERNAILS. Gah, I love them. The colors also work very well together. It almost looks like it would be from a limited edition deck of cards.

Well, we'll just be friends ;)

And how much more stunning it looks now. Bravo panda. It's like the clouds are his wings.

Wine.x.Rose (Jul 15, 2006)

Oh, that turned out beautiful. I like the subtle cloud-wings greatly, it's awesome. The creature is so -- what's a word to describe it that hasn't already been used? I just want to run up and pet him.

pandabarrie (Jul 15, 2006)

im thinking of changing the color of the fur and adding in the little sun circles but it will be a while before i get to that

Sweetcell (edited Jul 15, 2006)

No, no please leave it like this. It's so subtle and pretty, and like Wine said I want to go up to it and pet it.

I normally totally fail trying to draw this kind of thing but i'm quite pleased with how this came out even though it's still pretty rough.

I found the fur really hard because of the light conditions. Got bored as usual.
