Which of these fill methods do you prefer?
-
I also think 1 goes best with the overall style.

I like 1, the flat color looks great with the lines. Gives it a comics/animation feel, which I'm particularly fond of.
The style you pick should be something YOU enjoy making, though, so if you discovered 2 is not your favorite, that might be a clue for how to go forward.

Iโm just starting to realize that maybe this pencil texture thing is SVSโs style rubbing off on us.
You may be right

@carriecopa Very true!
-
@nyrrylcadiz Hahaha this might be true! I observed the same thing at my university, CVM, when I was studying animation. We used to call it the CVM style hahaha..

@nessillustration @Art of B hahaha welp... each school has itโs own signature

@art-of-b I prefer fills 1 or 2, I think they could work equally well depending on the project. The reason I prefer the top two is because they both have a strong style - they look very deliberate and have a strong impact in one direction or the other. For me the third one is a little weaker being a mash of the two styles, simply because it does not take the design far in either direction. That is the Designer coming out in me though. I was once taught about the importance of making style choices look strong and deliberate, otherwise you risk things looking unfinished or like a mistake. It always stuck with me. I think it is especially important to be deliberate when using rough textures or styles.

I really like the texture of the second one ^_^

@art-of-b
I like the first one and the third one. But for the third one I would be more selective where that texture would be because I feel personally that it can easily go like the second. I really like texture it just feels to distinct from the the rest of your line art, where as the third one touch on both.
I did just notice that the first one on her shirt has a nice bit of subtle variation which I think gets across adding texture and still holds up strong with your line style.

The third is my favorite.
