I just thought the picture was cool because he looked like the Muppets' Beaker incarnate.
Chantilly (Jul 6, 2004)
hehe I just love the hair! makes me smile every time I look at it. Almost looks like a modern piece crossed with that one artist..ugh, the one who does the famouse portraits in mexico. yeah, that one. anyways, I like it Gigge!
emmamommalag (Jul 6, 2004)
It makes me smile, too. I love it, Gigge.

I was mulling over what to draw next when 'Big Eyed Fish' came on my player. So, I drew a big eyed fish. Ok, since the other link didn't work...http://www.goredsea.com/EN_the-magazine-photo-gallery-gallery-red.aspx. It's the Lion Fish.
Gigge (Jul 6, 2004)
Ahh...I see the problem. There's a single quotation in the link that the auto-hyperlink isn't picking up. i'll just leave it. Wouldn't want to upset anyone by not mentioning a reference ;D. The really nosy can type the link if they want.
emmamommalag (Jul 6, 2004)
That's a strange-looking fish but he's kinda cute and very well drawn. :)
DinoFlorist (Jul 6, 2004)
You didn't have to tell me it was a Lion Fish, but the coloration seems different from most I have seen (which are Volitan or Fuzzy Dwarf Lions). I am going to guess that this is a Dwarf anyway.
Anna (Jul 7, 2004)
VERY nice Gigge :D Love all the orange shades you used in it. /clap |

Thunderstorm coming. Just saving before the power goes.
Gigge (Jul 4, 2004)
You all are so observant! Yeah, the monument is too short. I was having great trouble getting it thin so I 'fattened it up a bit which made it look shorter than it is. I seem to have fallen asleep while drawing this. It was supposed to be at night with fireworks and no blossoms on the trees. Go figure.
emmamommalag (Jul 4, 2004)
Oh, but it's absolutely beautiful with the blossoms. Great work, Gigge.
LovelyLori (Jul 4, 2004)
:( this is one of those pics that my pc makes disappear... why on earth does that happen? just to some? so weird.... wish I could see it close up, but the thumbnails look gorgeous anyway!
davincipoppalag (Jul 5, 2004)
I dont know why that happens either Lori..but try this left click on the picture (where it should be) and then when the dropdown shows..click on "show picture' see if that works |

This was fun. Used a reference pic.
Aubrey (Jul 4, 2004)
I like everything about it.. does look like a cute lil young adult eagle :) The detail in the feathers is great!
LovelyLori (Jul 4, 2004)
aren't birds so fun to draw? this came out awesome Gigge! he does look like he's got a pisser of an attitude, lol
starmarked (Jul 6, 2004)
This picture is great, every once-in-a-while I get to see one of these around my house. You captured it perfectly!
Cordelia_Pink (Jul 26, 2004)
this eagle is watching me like a hawk. XD good job. |

I'm sorry lady. I tried a different technique on the skin tone. Oy.
davincipoppalag (Jul 1, 2004)
Now this is freaky. I have friends who live in Tennessee and the wife's name is Stephanie. When I saw the picture, my wife looked and said "someone drew Steph!" How wierd!
laurael (edited Jul 2, 2004)
I like how you did her hair and her eyes...her right brow looks pretty real with that little bit of extra detail under it...nice!
JackSprat (Jul 26, 2004)
I like this! nicely done. |

Experimenting with skin tones. Color scares me big time. I don't know what her name is. She just looked kind of like a Stephany in her reference picture. Then again she was kind of pretty in the reference picture.
sal (Jun 30, 2004)
nice pic... kinda pale tho, *darker darks, lighter lights* good draw anyway... the eyes r very nice..O_O
davincipoppalag (Jul 1, 2004)
Same girl..I posted about how freaky it was to see this picture (which, btw looks exactly like our friend!)
01 (Jul 1, 2004)
I wish somebody clued me in on how to create textures like the one you used on this girl's clothing =)
JackSprat (Jul 26, 2004)
I like this one even more...nice skin tones, love the texture on her dress....You gedda pick the aminal cookies you want. |

Thought I'd take a stab at feet and drawing from black up to white. Maybe next time I'll try drawing instead of stabbing. http://www.rbuhsd.k12.ca.us/classpgs/photography2003/stroh/feet.jpg
EphemeralFlames (Jun 30, 2004)
This is a very lovely drawing, I love the shading and style... but, if you don't mind my saying, it would look more... natural... if the back foot was more in forward space, it almost looks like the wrong foot is in front if you know what I mean. And less of the bottom of that foot would be showing, the arch of the sole would be narrower. You did a really great job though, feet and hands are my enemy...
Gigandas (Jul 3, 2004)
Hmm, I really like how the water seems like it's flowing across and down the steps even in a still picture :)...
JackSprat (Jul 26, 2004)
This is nice....it almost feels ghostly.
Cordelia_Pink (Jul 26, 2004)
nice FEET! lol they kinda look like... my feet. no, actually, not really though. good job. awesomely awesome. =) |

@!*@%^#$%#! Lascaux! This was really a hands study, http://www.reinhardschmid.de/myhands/photos/hands35_2g_s.jpg. The background was just because I've been working on faces and light and dark.
Gigge (Jun 29, 2004)
Thanks for all the compliments and especially the suggestions on how to improve. They really help me.
laurael (Jun 29, 2004)
Wow...the hands are so realistic...and I love that ring. Fabulous job, Gigge...wow. :]
DeadlyBlondeArcher (Jun 29, 2004)
Very nice hands, and good distribution of light and shadows. Love how the ring and the irises match.
JackSprat (Jul 26, 2004)
All I can say on this one, is Wow! The details on wrinkling and texture on the hands is fantastic. |

Better to have that mess in a sketch than in my head....no reference.
sal (Jun 26, 2004)
cool pic... i like the green tones you've used, help make it look more interesting... the body looks kinda buff...lol
davincipoppalag (Jun 27, 2004)
Nice sketch (ing). Maybe darken up the background to make the face stand out more..it's hard to see the whole thing
emmamommalag (Jun 27, 2004)
Interesting picture. I, also, like the green shading and agree that it needs a darker background.
Gigge (Jun 27, 2004)
Hehe, yeah I cheated on the background. I just used this sketch to test a bunch of stuff I hadn't done while doing all those portraits....an older woman, someone facing left, and drawing without a reference. But, I hadn't studied bodies, so....I guess I did use a reference...a mirror for the 'buff' shoulders that don't fit with the head. Thanks, Sal. ;D |

Here's the reference: http://www.jimemery.com/people/oldluckettsman.jpg. This is turning out quite different from the original. I hope it's not too bad in the end. I just read the photo caption and the guy lives in a neighboring county! Not good to offend your neighbors.
Aubrey (Jun 26, 2004)
Agreed about poppa's suggestions. Both hands need to be dulled down a bit. As it is now they're barely noticeable, but with a little shading they'll look great. That's a great reference picture. Your take on it is comin along nicely :)
Gigge (Jun 26, 2004)
:S Out of space again. I need you guys standing over my shoulder making these suggestions before I submit! Hmmm
deannak24 (Jun 27, 2004)
gigge you so lied when i 1st took you into a sketch program about you not being able to draw.....shame on you cos you have put me to shame....i love your detail and im expecting lessons very soon lol
JackSprat (Jul 26, 2004)
Very nice work! You Dumbhead, you telling people you can't draw again!? |
