Since I didn't fit all four objects (or even three) on the first draw. I decided to do a part 2. |

I'm trying the first exercise from http://www.anticz.com/drawing1.htm. There are supposed to be four objects on here. I'm not sure I can even fit 3....So, I split the exercise into two parts. These are the first two shapes. Working on the second pair.

Thanks for the comments/advice on the last draw. I put in a few harder lines on this draw, but I didn't use the anti-alies to do thin highlights. I found that it blurs the line too much and makes the line 2 or three pixels wide. What worked better for me was turning off the anti-alias and blend and using a low opacity and high flow to draw thin highlights. But, thanks for the suggestion!Ok...i sharpened the bowl slightly, added a touch more definitiion to the glass outline and 'clarified' the base of the glass. Thanks for the hints.

fab gigge .....is beautiful nice to see you drawing here as well as in the game

I think what it is about this is the bg kind of camouflages the glass.. I think with a different bit of color back there the glass would stand out more... its much better as I stare at it.. but that bg hides it...

Just browsing yer board....this one is beautiful! I love the blending and colors, especially the contrast between the grey and the wine. LOL....sorry, but I think of things in terms of where I'd like to see them....this would make an absolutely beautiful cover for a wine menu. |

I drew another outline for a picture that was mostly glass and then I realized I had never actually drawn glass. Not as bad as I thought it woulc be. Things I learned this draw.....keep blurring, keep blurring, keep blurring....
davincipoppalag (Jun 12, 2004)
Blur is good..but you also need sharp edges.. use the antialias setting and a small brush..and then blur the inside edge (it helps to enlarge when you do this part) with the sharp outlines the rest will look ever so much more real...the top of the clear glass vase is off a bit in perspective I believe. The front edge needs to be a bit higher, it seems to drop too low? This is a good job! I particularly like the blue one!
emmamommalag (Jun 12, 2004)
I love that blue one. Nice job on all of it. :)
WildMageDaine90 (Jun 13, 2004)
that's pretty good! i agree with davincipoppalaq on the need of more defined edges, but it's cool. i like.~WMD90 (LOL)
Gigge (Jun 13, 2004)
Yup...I agree too! The problem started after version two when I decided to add a background so you could actually see the glass. That didn't work at all. The clear glass got so over worked it wasn't worth salvaging. Better to take the comments and try to incorporate them into another picture. Thanks for the tips though. :) |

I found an old sketch book from 6th or 7th grade. It looks like the last thing I was working on was cloth. So, I decided to try again. I think the contrast of the folds here may be a bit sharp, giving the cloth an upolstry feel rather than cotton or silk, or polyester or whatever it actually is. Things I learned this draw.....patience pays off and rather strange for a black and white draw, that right clicking acts as an eyedropper tool. Go figure.
lp_phaery (Jun 11, 2004)
I like it.....i agree its really realistic looking. Detail is AMAZING!!!!!!!!
mx (Jul 7, 2004)
Very nice...I like the fact that you gave it an "aware" unfinished look...i.e, you knew when to stop when it was looking good:) go well mx
Gigge (Jul 7, 2004)
Wow, you are browsing way back. And, giving me too much credit. I cut this piece out of a magazine 15 or so years ago. That's all there was to the clipping, no more to copy. ;)

wow... awesome! |

So...still a bit west of realism, but improving. I learned this time that I like the feel of full flow, medium opacity.
Gigge (Jun 10, 2004)
Hehe...googly eyes and tomato leaf hair probably would improve it. But unfortunately, that's not how the tomato I was holding looked. I'll keep those suggestions in mind for the next vegetable draw. ;)
davincipoppalag (Jun 11, 2004)
Waaaaa no greenery??? ((BTW..just for the record.. and for accuracy..in actual fact.. a tomato is actually a fruit , not a veggy) ..o ..not even ONE little bitty green leaf? lol
RIKG (Jun 11, 2004)
Hehe, thats really nice. I like the shading, its good.I don't like tomatos though.
ILoveKenshin (Jun 11, 2004)
Dang... that should be in advanced.. O_O I can draw realism at all! :D'~:Kaoru:~' |

I wanted to work on drawing stones. And, I found this old photo of European castle ruins. The different layers of stone that were used as the techniques changed for masonry over the years provided an oportunity to work on differnt types of stone. It was also kind of symbolic. The draw changes as my abilities with the tablet and drawing in general do, kind of like the castle stones. I think I'll be hanging out in beginner for awhile and playing with the tools some more.
Tman (Jun 10, 2004)
ok that is cool
Kenshin (Jun 10, 2004)
That is cool. I like the texture of it. |.°:Kenshin:°.|
davincipoppalag (Jun 10, 2004)
Yep playin with the tools is the way to go.. good start here |
