Deino (Jan 2, 2006)
Original sculpture by Edgar Degas
This drawing, the first of mine signed with "06" has varios purposes:

1.- Experiment with quick and spontaneous traces, like... impressionism :)
2.- See how well can I do without any previous sketch
3.-Practice the human figure (Yes, she is a little desproportionate... read above)
4.- Tell everyone... Hapy New Year! 2006 YAY!!!!

It looks like a bronze sculpture. Pretty coolness, nice effect.

That hauty posture you captured is perfect. I'm not seeing anything out of proportion, I think it just looks that way because we can't see all of her right foot.

Because I felt like drawing someone big. I realize Dhalsim isn't this huge but I just like this style.

terracotta (Jan 11, 2006)
I can hear the pound of the hoofbeats and I sorta feel like I'm choking on dust when I look at this. It's one of my favourite works I've seen on this site. I've come back to it many times and can sit and look at it for long periods because it evokes a place and time for me.
Artiste (Jan 16, 2006)
thank you very much :) I am flattered.

This started out to be practise just doing an eye and eye area, but sort of grew into a larger view. I'm practising the details of drawing faces, and this is one of my first from-scratch attempts to do so in colour, using oekaki. Yes, I know he (she?) is pale. Please let me know if the skin tones are so light that the shading isn't showing.

I fully expect to come back and finish this, but family responsibilities have been interrupting so much I thought I'd better do a safety save (and yes, that means that the timer is off, by quite a bit).

Well, I'm trying to get a bit more anatomical accuracy, depth of concept, and visual interest going on in this picture... ...but I still can't tell if I got the skin colour too light or not. Regardless, I think my next edit will probably be my last.

Yes, that is intended to be a blade centered between his/her eyes -- I haven't decided for certain if it's an arrow, or a spear, but I'm leaning toward arrow. Speaking of which, I'm hoping to address the perspective problems next time.

It may not be much of a picture, but I'm pretty happy with the eye, overall. Any useful suggestions for improving it (especially the eyelashes, which don't look right, and I'm not sure why) will be gratefully welcomed.

Here's to hoping to come around more often, and hoping that the intervening months spent working on sharpening my artistic skills are actually showing results. :)
Artiste (Jan 2, 2006)
Well, Im new here so I feel a little weird giving advice, but it seems pretty obvious to me that you need to 'let go' a little in your painting. There is a tendency in beginner painters to noodle with a painting for too long. Loosen your strokes a little, and dont be afraid to f-up the peice. Its not the sistine chapel. The eyelashes dont feel right because I think youve messed with them too much, and now they look perfectly symmetrical. If you look at a photo of a person's face you will see that eyelashes dont actually look like little hairs, they look very often like a dark area, and if youre looking up close, you wont see every hair, but rather a few hairs here and there. Your modeling is good... and the color part of eyeball is very nicely done.
Opium (edited Jan 2, 2006)
you've definetly got a great start! I agree with artiste, the eyelashes need some more work. the eyelashes on the top lid, you shouldn't see till about the end of the iris, then it should gradually be little lashes, and the ones on the end on the right, should be defined...you could even show a few eyelashes on the left side too, but those are very short and not as dramatic. the bottom should be very faint. and is that an eyebrow ring? I'd get some references of them and just look at them, where they're placed, and how their shadows look. It's a good piece so far! and I like the pale skin :) It fits. Keep working at it! It might help to get a mirror and use yourself kind of as a reference
