sigma 6 posted:This is loving amazing, but the arrangement of the legs and tail looks really weird. You seem to be missing anatomical elements here. I know it is mythical creature but it does look ... odd. Thanks for the crit! My references were some lizards fighting in the sand. But I probably didn't capture the foreshortened elements well enough. Here's another one from the same project as the others. A slimy creature called a dipsa in a nest of eggs.

sigma 6 posted:T shirt design for a HS reunion. Really not happy with it. Please help! Ok, I'm not a pro but this is what I'd do if it was me (feel free to pipe in if I'm not getting it):  I assumed you want to keep as much of the old model "intact", but you can still make small changes that make a big difference. First off, you use one of those calligraphy pens for the ink that lends itself well to a more angular design, you should use that! It's a caricature so don't be afraid to exaggerate the defining parts like the horns, the sunglasses, the hand throwing the v or the converse shoes. Next up, he was slouching funny (drawing characters sitting is not a strong point for me either) so I gave him a gut from whence the legs emerge. As a bonus, the defining gut line draws the attention to the text on his shirt. I know gently caress all about typography, but making the letters follow a curved line sort of "gathers up" the design for me. The words "like" and "the" in this sentence are filler words that the brain sorta fills in itself when it sees the big words of "no school" and "old school" so there is no need to keep them big like the rest of it. You could make them tiny under the "no school" or before "old school" and it would still read OK. However, here I placed them on the same line as the visually most interesting part of the drawing, so the eye flows easily over them and takes them in without them disrupting the pic too much (they're still pretty big here). I would make the text more angular, but if you wanted to go for the sort of old-style soft letters, I'd take it a step further to make them lean into each other more, give them more lumpiness, if only at the bottom so that if you still want them to follow a "wave" line, it's easier to see where the wave travels. In conclusion:

I struggled with the body on this sketch. Still not right. Dammit. Still not good at drawing anatomy from my head.

You still need a drawing to put the water color over. Also, the better the drawing, the better the resulting painting. However, many painters are pretty loose with the drawing part, preferring to spend the vast majority of time painting. Figure drawing from last night.  Here's how that T shirt design came out. Wish I had more time, or used a different font, or took the advice of using the font to surround the character. Oh well, things can always be better ... regardless, thanks again Sharpest Crayon!

Hey the back to the future font is pretty cool! Could've used the opportunity to spell out "back to school". It's nice and clean for a rush job, though. The instant I saw this I just burst out laughing, that dude is so hosed. Good job on drawing a terrible concept like "rotting wind", too. Pocahontas would be proud of how you paint with all the colours of the wind. Also water elemental.  Stealthy edit to add conchpiece of glory.

Today's daily drawing is actually some prototyping. Left side is an idea for a cane head which I hope to sculpt in zbrush and cast in bronze from a 3d printout. Right side is a pose for an old 3d character I haven't touched in ages.

Macabre sounds good to me. Horror would also be appropo. So this cane may or may not have wings. Hmmm. Apparently, the more parts stick out, the harder they are to cast in metal.
