I keep visualizing her looking over some sort of fire....
DeadlyBlondeArcher (Apr 18, 2006)
Beautiful lighting... I imagine her sitting on a soft rug in front of a fireplace, and her expression looks like she's longing for someone. When a painting gives you a larger picture than what's actually depicted in the subject matter, it works. This does.

This fun loving character is living proof that I worked out the UNDO problem and therefore is too precious to kill off.

Thanks davinci! Glad someone else appreciates her. I have a stable of strange things in my mind and have no fear about bringing them to light! I am having fun learning the new tools.
emmamommalag (Apr 6, 2006)

After doing my last picture here which was a very mechanical attempt to achieve photorealism where my only aim way to copy the photo, I wanted to go in the opposite direction, getting back more to what I was trying to do in the intermediate boards, instead attempting the loosest attempt to draw from a reference yet, with an attempt to only use the reference without drawing the reference at all. Accuracy to the photo is not going to be a criteria in this case. It's going to be about speed, looseness, and improvisation. I just finished a lot of work, so hopefully I'll have the time to focus on something challenging.

I'm going to try to combine what I've learned from both my practice in drawing with references and inventing forms without references to make something that hopefully doesn't suck too much and doesn't require too much time spent on it (hopefully something I finish by the end of the day). By using a reference, I'm hoping the result will be more convincing and anatomically correct than some of my doodles on this board where I didn't use any references at all. By not drawing the reference directly, the end result will hopefully be something fairly different than the photo and interesting on its own. Most importantly, I'm hoping it will be a useful exercise that will help me get better.

Reference: http://hq55.com/scan/willemdafoe/01.jpg. After cropping out the text on the left, I decided to flip him horizontally. I just liked it better that way after removing all the space on the left. I don't know why I liked it better - I'm not a composition expert, but I liked the initial focus to be on the left flowing towards the right, and having the brighter portion of the face on the left seemed to do that more.

I don't really know what I'm going to end up with. I have a fantasy theme in mind: maybe a warrior or a priest or something.

Somewhat elfish, it's interesting to read what was going through your mind as you drew this, I'd say your right side was working conveniently alongside your left. Nicely done comd.

Just have to ask what your name represents, if it's a abbreviation of something. Curious is all.
Shoebox (Apr 7, 2006)
Reminds me of that part in the ROTK movie. Y'know, the path of the dead?

Creepy. But good, very very good. I love how you can still see the sketch lines.
safescene (Apr 9, 2006)
You are crazily talented. I love how it looks as though he came from another era/dimension/time, and his smug face.
Kloxboy (Apr 9, 2006)
That's tight. I really like the subtle highlights and lighting. Structure rocks..hehe.

This is my first draw. Just playing with tools. This did not take me 3 1/2 hrs. I forgot to turn it off and left the puter for ages.

Thanks Sweetcell..pick that jaw up, you are the talented one!

DBA..oh...great initials..btw *L*..I will not fit the mold here. I will draw patterns and odd things. I teach drawing, it is kinda like being at work to do realism for me plus NO WAY could I EVER catch up to you buncha geniuses here! The work here, and yours..is beyond description.
DeTroy (edited Apr 5, 2006)
H there....I reallly love the bold and vivid use of colour here....it adds an expressive quality to the image. Now..here are the four reasons...the airfare would be too expensive............it would fade quickly in the cold..........everyone knows martians do not appreciate flowers the way we do............and it would be more luggage than there is space for in the flying saucer
You may think these are crazy reasons, but trust me they are the right ones for this image
gerbear (Apr 6, 2006)
ty DeTroy! Glad someone finally thought of some reasons! :)

New here. Would welcome advice on the hair. Used the blender and set the opacity low, but it still looks really fake.

I reworked the hair and it looks more natural now I think. I didn't realize you could go back into a "finished" drawing.
tandrew971 (Apr 20, 2006)
i really like that about this site..being able to go and fix something even after its finished. the hair looks great (as does the rest)
Meno (Mar 7, 2008)
Whaddaya talkin' 'bout? I like the hair .... like golden strands of wheat.
QTgillie (Jun 23, 2009)

Wonderful. Whats not to love? The transluscent quaility is great. I remember from YouDraw a while back, but you might have used another name?
