Paul McCartney

Ari (Aug 7, 2004)

Working on it, getting in the basics and so forth...
Reference: the cover of my "Paul McCartney at the Cavern Club" DVD.
There's something wrong with his mouth, but no matter how many times I redraw it I can't get it to look right. Help?

I love Paul McCartney but I don't really see him in this. Could be the mouth issue too but dunno. The eyes seem a bit too far apart and the nose looks a lil short and the mouth probably looks off because you cut the chin off too far over. It needs to expand out to almost the edge of the mouth. The hairline is also off alot... Keep workin on it and it'll be great though I'm sure. I can't wait ta see what he looks like finished.

Ari (Aug 10, 2004)

Thanks for the help ^_^
I shall fix and finish!
BTW, this may not look like Paul the Beatle cos it's Paul as he is now, not as he looked forty years ago, which is how people would normally think of him.

Working on shading now, I think it's looking better. Hair is still kinda screwed up. I will fix it when I can find a better reference. Nose is shorter than it really ought to be, but I rather like it like that. I tried making it longer and it looked funny.

Great pic Ari-chan! And you say you can't do realism. Okay, the mouth is a little tilted. I think. Unless his mouth is like that. But I would just rotate it a little to fit his head angle. Then it's gold!

bumpinthenight (Aug 12, 2004)

errr... this isnt really intermediate quality..... although you spent a total of 1.5 hours (roughly) on it, it still should be on the beginners board.... the lines are undefined, the lava is crude, and the trajectory and quantity of the lava being jetisoned from the volcano is not very realistic... try harder next time!

Linwe_lover_1990 (Aug 12, 2004)

yeah, i am drawing with a mouse, and im on a public library computer. so, im sorry if its not good enough

Blue Heron

alwaysLearning (Mar 10, 2004)

This is a blue heron, painted based on the one in this photo, which I found on the web. I started out working without an immediate visual reference, but the bird I created looked nothing like a Blue Heron, so I started over, working from the photo.

For that matter, any useful comments and suggestions will be gratefully appreciated -- not that I would say no to compliments, either... *grin*

Edit: I specifically chose the reference photo that I did, because I liked the soft, painted look of the heron in the photo itself. So, this piece will still have a soft look, just a more detailed soft look, when finished. Any suggestions on technique to achieve that look would be very welcome. :)

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Mar 10, 2004)

This is very pretty... it already is taking on a soft, but detailed look, which is what I like. I looked at your reference photo and so far you are getting there. You can have alot of fun playing with the light that is happening there - you should take advantage of that. I don't know if this applet has an airbrush (I use lascaux only) but if it does, it works nicely for things you want to have a *soft* look to, and then for the details you can come back with a regular brush or antialias brush and add them. It looks like you are using a light opacity, which is good for soft. Keep layering light opacities and then add your detail and I think you'll get what you want. (btw - you have a nice grin! lol)

alwaysLearning (edited Mar 10, 2004)

Believe it or not, this *is* me trying to condense my comments. *sigh* On the other hand, there's only so much I can compress into so few words, and I don't see much point in asking for comments without giving information on what I'm looking for. I also try to give people a chance to know who they're talking to, when I join a new site.

I *am* going for something stylized, not photo-exact, so I'm not trying for exact feathers -- but at the same time I am also trying for something that's got the look and feel of that photo, since that's what made me choose it. So, the question stands, if anyone has any suggestions as to how to get that look and feel a bit more closely on the wings. Regardless, I still appreciate the comment, feedback, and suggestion.

Edit: Thanks for the suggestion, DBA! I'm still getting used to the options on the different applets, and there are some things I seem to be able to get Shi-Painter to do that I can't seem to manage on Lascaux, yet -- but there *is* an airbrush option, I'll have to give it a try, next painting session. *smile* Thanks again!

Groovy heron! ^_^ I like how you drew the outline, it makes it look like an inked watercolour ^_^ *applauds*
