Just one of those times...

@Dulcie I wasn't exactly looking for a critique, just expressing my frustration to a crowd that I'm sure has experienced something similar at least one time in their life (but I'm not against any critiques either). I don't think a lot of my other friends would understand the unbearable pain and suffering associated with trying to get an image right and not quite being able to do so, haha. I exaggerate of course
The story has changed since I first sketched it out. And it actually changed again as I was thinking about how to approach it. I'll be starting the new piece today! -
@mattramsey I really like Aaron Baise's stuff. I'll have to check it out! Thanks for letting me know

This is me with EVERY assignment or commission I get. I swear it seems like I forget everything I learned and fight with it the whole way then turn around and drop something really cool in my sketchbook like it weren't no thang.
Here's a wieird funny thing I discovered about things like water and clouds and glass and metal etc etc.. They're really hard til you learn the "trick" and then they're stupidly easy and you wonder why not everyone can paint (fill in the blank). I had an experience where I was struggling like crazy to paint some glass bottles filled with colored liquid, and I could not figure it out. Then after weeks of wanting to punch every glass bottle in the face It just clicked and I was off to the races. Of course I had to stick glass in all of my paintings after that.@mattramsey thanks for the link. I just happened to have $15 in my Paypal and swooped up the tutorials. Can't wait to get more of his stuff.

@shinjifujioka Yep! difficult isn't it? After watching Big hero 6 you'll probably find a new way. If not, make a list of what you want with this. check out your favorite artist. Make thumbnail sketches? or maybe a view environment paintings? eventually the feeling will come back, I'am sure of that! Go for it! Oh have you seen the Marco Bucci course thats on SVS? that can be helpful aswel.

@Ace-Connell Both Big hero 6 and Marco Bucci's course are great! Bucci makes me twitch a bit...his pallet lol. It's pretty brilliant though!
-
@Lynn-Larson Haha I totally didn't mean Big Hero 6, I meant the course haha. Thanks for both though

@shinjifujioka Glad you have got a direction in mind, I'm sure it's going to be amazing when finished! My other half has observed that the more pain/frustration I go through when creating something, the better the finished result...it's like getting mad about it makes you push further than before. Hopefully will be the same for you
I haven't seen Big Hero 6 yet...maybe I should.
-
@Dulcie You definitely should watch it! It was my favorite movie of 2014 by far. Hits all the right notes.
-
@Ace-Connell Ow Its such a nice film! love it! popcorn fun!

@mattramsey thanks for the link!

I had been unable to log into the forums the past few days - the Facebook option was missing but Aaron got it back up and running - thanks Aaron! Anyway I had not yet seen Big Hero 6 so last night I found it was available On Demand and I was able to finally watch it. So now I feel like I am more in the know of all you cool kids here!

I'm not a TV/Movie guy but I've always loved the concept artwork for Big Hero 6. Very, very stunning.
