pokey (Feb 20, 2010)
i want to revise a previous version of an image. is this even possible? the image i want to revise is made in shi-painter. i checked it in the wiki -- maybe i overlooked it? (and no, i do not want to click the undo button until i reach the previous saved version. it works, but ... uh... i waste enough time as it is. lol. ) thanks in advance. :)

It's been like this for quite long while for me. I was away from oekakis for 5 months, and now no matter what oekaki program I open... My firefox shuts itself down, before it even starts. I tried to google this problem but I couldn't find any answer... So anyone here know the answer for this?

Master Copy #1 - Josh Kirby
mursku
(Feb 16, 2010)
i was thinking that i might learn more from copying some great paintings instead of fotos. For my first one, i chose one of my favorite artists, Josh Kirby, to copy from. He was a really great artist, but its a bit difficult to find a good painting from him to copy, as he tended to do those really detailed paintings (especially on the Discworld books) for reference i chose one of his simpler paintings: http://andokai.blog.cz/0608/josh-kirby

Where did Mursku go? I quite enjoyed his stuff.

So, everyone seems to be doing a little copying from favored painters & illustrators so I thought I would throw in my 2 cent.This is from Kay Nielsen. I really love all of his work. Especially for the East of the Sun and West of the Moon book. :) Not done yet, and the lady needs some reworking of the torso and head, but better then nothing! Ref: http://www.ralphbakshi.com/blog/archives/sunmoon03.jpg

I bought all the illustrations from that book in card form about...erm...30 years ago. Still have them. Still love them. This is very, very pretty and has captured the feeling of his work.
Layne (Feb 27, 2010)
I am glad you like it. They republished the east of the sun and west of the moon about two(?) years ago in a really nice hardcover edition. :) I was so glad when i saw because while I had a book of his illustrations I really wanted to be able to read the stories that went along with all of his illustrations.

Very attractive style, those soothing colors are great.It would be a great contest, draw from your favorite artist. In his or her style.
mursku (Feb 27, 2010)
when i compare your piece with the original, the first thing that pops to my eyes is that the original looks like it was made with watercolors, while yours looks too smooth, there's hardly any texture.. i liked the texture you had going in the fifth version. if you wanted to have texture like in the original painting, an easy (and quick!) way to do it, would be with a scatter brush (choose a high scatter count and you can maybe crank up the spacing too) on a separate layer. that way you can easily erase the eventual wayward dots from unwanted areas, and you can also play around with the blend mode and opacity (make it subtle) ..hmm, another thing that i noticed was that the original was much more sharper (darker and thinner lines).. i suck at line art so i'll not gonna try to give you any advice on that. You would only get worse if i tried to teach you line art :P |

it prolly a bit presumptuous of me to try to make a tutorial, but what the hell, you learn by trying :P
enjoydotcom (Feb 26, 2010)
Oh yes, so presumptuous ;). Great tips.
firecracker (Feb 26, 2010)
This is so cool....I really like it....I liked the tutorial also.....:)
spyra (Feb 26, 2010)
Great tips indeed. Thanks! :D
mursku (Feb 27, 2010)
thanks guys :D ..but the second tutorial it will be better than this, first i just gotta figure out if the techniques will work in chibi painter and is there any workarounds.. oh yeah, and i gotta plan it out beforehand. in this piece i was just winging it ;) |

reference phototrying to make the wings more part of her body.. lightened the face, it was too dark. and changed the eyes to green, you know, for the contrast.. got rid of the horns for now.. made the tail point towards the viewer. i think its a bit better now, but it might look even better if the tail rested on top of her legs. i'll try that later... got rid of the props, but now i don't know what to put there instead. or should i just forget the whole prop idea?... maybe i should just try out the classic (small) devils horns on her forehead?
Layne - thanks :D yeah, i too thought the wings should stay on. i think they more effectively sell the idea that she's some kinda demon that way :)
Flubbles (Feb 27, 2010)
I think the horns on the forehead would be a good idea, and instead of a sword you could go with a whip.
elly (Feb 27, 2010)
Her face reminds me of some Ben 10 characters...love the lighting =)have anybody else noticed that it takes a lot longer to upload the drawings than before, or is it just me?
fixed her left leg (the one in the back), it was too short. had to move the whole picture a bit to the right.. maybe now that there's not that much of empty space on the right, i might get away without needing any props. But i would like to have something more, than just a naked demon chick in my painting, even if its just some jewelery.. hmm.. maybe its time to go look at Frazetta paintings for some inspiration :) elly - it does, doesn't it? :D i guess i and the artists on Ben 10 have just been inspired by the same artists.. yeah and i love dramatic lighting, you can imagine the forms much more clearly than if there's no shadows... it's like i can touch that ass in my mind :D haha :P Flubbles - i'll try that whip idea :) [Edit:] maybe its because its 5:48 AM and im really tired, but her head is looking too big to me.. i'll go to sleep and look at this with fresh eyes, maybe its nothing.. |

I did a photo shoot of a bunch of goats last summer, I have a shot very similar to this one but the colors really give this fella a sweet look. Beautifully drawn!
