Me, on the track. A photo of me.
Oh gracious, NINE HOURS LATER!!
I stared at my computer and chanted ‘please don’t crash’ as it tried to render the first time. Then I realized that I had saved the resolution ridiculously HUGE... I might have to start attempting to draw at a more reasonable resolution. Because the picture came out at 67mb...
Then I changed the resolution and saved it again and now it’s 4mb. I learned something today because it still looks really good. (well... as good as my art currently looks)
Technically I drew Saeji/JefK several days ago, on the first day of my character sketch challenge. Then I sketched nem the other day in my sketchpad and went back to the original digital sketch to finish it. And now it’s done... XD Shading is supposed to bring value and I had a lot of fun with it. I kind of changed HOW I was doing the shading partway through the drawing though which is why nir skin looks different than the rest of the drawing. Nir scales came out good though... going to have to do a different pattern for the rest of nir scales, but the belly scales came out great. There’s adding volume with lines and shading... and then there’s pure insanity because NINE HOURS LATER... -_- ... ah well, at least I had fun.
Seriously, I think I’m going to... heh, Draw the Line at like six hours a day or something in the future. Most of my other sketches so far have only taken an hour or two (less for the elf, and he DOES have a name now, but I’ll reveal that next time I draw him 8D)
Sadly enough today’s pictures (actually yesterday’s pictures) are not digital, partially because I didn’t get a chance to get on my computer, and partially because I actually skipped a day. So you get my sketch pad sketches instead...
Junoki and I’m still playing around with design and outfit. I really do have to nail down proportions for kids, but it might be okay to play with Junoki’s, in part because he’s supposed to be almost anorexic skinny with huge, creepy hands. Go figure, I’m trying to make him less human base while at the same time taking away the body shy he used to have, though I’m already planning on bringing back the big blue coat for Winter. I’m thinking he’s going to look round in winter, because he does not do well with the cold. He doesn’t like it, no way no how. Being raised in a volcanic hellscape where the average cool temperature is mid to upper 90s and races not adapted to the heat can find themselves in big trouble on days where the high hits 130 degrees or higher, not to mention volcanic chemicals seeping out of most crevices...
The other picture is me! I wasn’t really planning on showing ya’all a photo of what I look like but the artist I had to sit for did a good job capturing my better side since beings with no soul don’t show up on camera and I decided to go for it. (this is BS, The naga is my avatar and I’m still not sure what gender ne is... or whether I’m going to let nir keep the rattle on the end of nir tail.) (everyone I show nem to calls nir a ‘she’ … and I am way too shy to try to explain otherwise or the specifics of nir anatomy, because I have never drawn, and probably never will draw, a pure male or female naga. because that’s boring.)
