50 Things Challenge
-
@smceccarelli Jaw hits floor .... you are amazing!
-
@smceccarelli I think that Rich put it perfectly....wow!
-
You're amazing! I love your style. I have been working on my "50 things challenge" but now I think I need to start over. Great work!
-
O wow, that looks amazing!
-
Great line work!
-
You did it!
-
Looks awesome @smceccarelli ! Great detail and depth. Like everyone, I can't wait to see what this will look like colored : )
-
@smceccarelli fantastic!
-
Are you an undercover teacher, trying to up our game?
Looks steller!
-
Wow, thanks everyone for the feedback - I am going to smile for the rest of the day :-))
@Eric-Castleman, I am at most an undercover student - I only pretend to know what I am doing, in reality every new image gives me panic attacks
Now getting started on color - no idea how to go about it....as usual. -
Great work @smceccarelli and all the little details are really nice. Can't wait to see the coloured version!
The different line thicknesses and tones work so well to give the image depth. -
LOVE it! Such a fun steampunk-y vibe. Excited to see the color!
-
I decided to follow Will Terry's process further and do a pencil-like value pass. Now I am toying with the idea of keeping the foreground on a completely different color space than the background. i have seen this done, for example, by John Howe...the images get somewhat graphic but very nice...very much out of my comfort zone, but still having fun!
This is the image by John Howe that makes me think of a graphic foreground/background separation. Do you know of other examples? I know they are out there, because I have seen them more than once....
-
@smceccarelli Pencil pass looks great! .........Poor Mr. Narwhal!
-
Yeah, love'n the pencil version. Hope you are able to keep some of that texture when you go to color.
-
that is awesome!!! I love it!!!!
-
I'm so in love with that pencil version!
-
@smceccarelli I agree. Wow!
-
Thank you all again!! I am still correcting and refining the drawing, but now many people are saying I should not color it, or only very very minimally, with a vintage look. That is a bit against the grain for me. What do you think?
-
@smceccarelli My feeling is that you are Very good with color - i remember the first piece of yours that i saw and thinking "wow - this person really knows their stuff" - i believe it was the girl with the home-made time machine with the room full of dinosaurs (great piece!) - if i had drawn anything close to this awesome i would be afraid of ruining it somehow with my lack of color knowledge and experience - but since it is your awesome drawing i am excited to see how you will paint it........and secretly hope that you do another youtube video of your process
