welp they are commin along.. I think.. the shape is a little bit off, but I will fix it as I go along and draw the grapse.. the leaves look fantastic btw! and they arnt even done :P
sorry i submited this so soon.. my internet is being crap tonight, the server keeps on going down and i dont wanna have it deleate the picture, so ill work on it in a few again, but this is more of a safety save Cindy, u can work on it a bit if you want
Danny, your grapes are absolutely perfect so far!!! This is so much fun :D
The revision I did here doesn't show up because I lost my connection during submission and it was that horrid little thumbnail x, but luckily Marcello is a doll and he got it back to the previous edit so at least we can continue to revise it. :) Thanks, Marcello.
Okay, actually stayed connected long enough to get something done. I took in the outline of your grapes just a tiny bit, (of course I realize you'll bring them out some again when you refine the shapes in finishing them) and repositioned the leaves a bit so that we could keep our composition intact. It works similar to an S composition, with the layout of the subject and the openings and points of light creating the flow. This way the viewers eye travels comfortably through the picture. I marked the openings and points of light so you know not to extend the grapes into those areas. Of course you'll delete the layer with this scribbling before you work on it. :D
well crap cindy im sorry.. i wanted to get more grapes done again.. im working with the outline too to refine it, but my dad is yellin at me to get ready lol we have a wedding to go to today.. hopefully i can get these done soon, but. i think i have a problem, I think i am making the grapes too small.. if you look at the ref, i start with them larger, but i didnt calculate in the fact that i would be shaving them down to round them and stuff.. i think they are comming out too small.. anyways. if that is the case im sorry, maybe there is something that im not doin right, and i didnt deleate your model btw, so i will folow that as well, it is just hidden.
ok..yay.. lol like a couple more.. but the letters are kinda screwin me up, but ill work around them.. sorry if the coloring is a bit off, but once i get all the grapes in and done i will come in and refine and match them up with eachother :)
hehe ok I will work on these tonight cause I dont have homework and we have to go pick the dog up from the vet from his surgery. and I will get more than 2 grapes done at a time lol.. THE LEAVES LOOK AWSOME....edit: OH.. i just saw what is wrong with the grape shap.. durr lol I need to cut more in on the right side.. like.. where the tail forms..if you look at the reference, it is not that fat. lol just a note to self when I work on it tonight
I hope your widdle puppy dog gets better soon. :(.... Your grapes are looking FANTABULOUS, lil' Danny. I love them... you are doing way, way better on those than I ever could have. I am amazed at what you've done here. I'll be back a little later to work on the leaves some more.
well I added a few more, ill go home now and maybe work on it a bit more. I donno, i just see so many things wrong with it :P I always do that GRRR, oh well, I will work out what i think is, like the lower grapes are getting brighter, just because I draw a little differently everyday, so it is weird, but I will try and impore it and then I will come back in a nd redefine each grape and stuff on the same day so that i have the same "drawing style" going lol so that it doesnt look horrably off, but I will work really hard to make it as great as i can :D and the leaves... are.. wowser.. lol you are unbelieveable Cindy :)
Thank you Danny, you are a sweetheart. Your style is very consistent, you don't have to worry about doing it all on the same day. Those grapes are so real looking... I don't see anything at all wrong with what you've done. It's perfect.
I got a couple more grapes in.. tho some of them are commin in a little miss placed according to the picture.. I may come in and add a few randomly or move a few that i have done to fit the picture better
oops.. crap forgot to put the grapes back :P well i will in a few here on my next edit, but i had to move them down so i could see what i was doing on the top of them.. i have another hidden layer that i can realign the grapes up with so that i didnt lose its position so the same amout of leaf will be showing :)
HAH! That scared me, I was like... the stem broke! The grapes are falling! Oh no! We took too long to finish! lol... jk, your grapes are so awesome. (oh, did you know that you can hide all the layers, so that you could see what you were doing? It would probably work the same as moving it, maybe less trouble)
and oh yeah, don't worry about making it exactly like the reference we're using... my leaves aren't the same... usually when using a reference I change things on purpose, because you have the artistic license to make everything work better than a photographer could... they are basically stuck with what you see is what you get. :)
DURR!! god i feel stupid now.. lol i even said that in my comment :P that i hid a layer.. Woosh flew right over me lol i will do that.. that is true also we arnt recreating the picture we are refining it and making it better. I will take that into condideration and maybe modify the rest of them a bit or the ones that i will draw here in a few minutes :) thanks Cindy edit: hmm.. maybe we should wait till next year to submit it so that it is on time :P jk jk
20th version, 3mb.. lol breaking records all over the place W00t.. ok well im just taking a quick break and then i will come in and finish up the cliffy dilio so we can submit it :D
WOOHOO ok grapes are done, unless you want me to go in and like darken up the places around the grapes like for defanition.. but yeah.. YAY wow that was a pain in the ass :P
AHHHH HELP I CANT... *twitch... Spazz* stooop....... TWEEEEKKING!! .. lol ok NOW.. NOW I am done.. forizzle.. I hope. yes I am.. done.. i fixed a couple of your grapes to help them blend a bit more but you migh wanna go in and just fix them a bit more to make them blent.. tho they kinda look cool now :) up to you
We did it! I didn't have to do much at all to finish it up... just had to take out a space in the background and work in the background grapes a bit more, but didn't do too much to them because I want them to stay in the background. My favorite part are your grapes with the highlights... just beautiful. And Danny I betcha if you look behind you, you'll be missing your butt because you worked yours right off on this. HAH :) Thanks for a wonderful time doing this... you are so talented and easy to work with and FUN. :)
Y'all did soooo Great. :-) I love it! Yay Dannyyyy and Cindy!!! You did excellent! I know how hard you've been workin' on it! Your work really paid off! You rock!!!
Those grapes look fantastic, and the colorful leaves and everything behind em, it's just all so pretty and compliments each other perfectly. Great job!... *eatin a grape*
I either want to eat them a lot, or I want to eat a lot of them. Great drawing, it turned out very well! I especially enjoy the contrast of the colors from the bg vs the grapes. :D
This is so pretty.. The grapes are so awesome. ;D Yes... I was wondering what happened between version 5 and 6. XD I kept clicking and clicking! >_< I am so weird.
