I'm enjoying seeing the progress. I like the ink/watercolour effect background. Is that a scanned texture?
-
@ians Thanks! No it's just me doing a quick inksplotch texture brush on a background layer with a bunch of colors. I just wanted something for the colors to play off of instead of white. Here's some more face studies of the boy character..

Man, interiors are a whole new thing to try and wrap my brain around. I've never really had to draw scenery. Maybe I'll take an SVS course on the subject.
-
I added some more things into the room, some lighting and shadows.

Hi @kylebeaudette I just joined the forums yesterday and also just recently started listening to the 3point perspective podcasts, it’s really inspiring! These sketches are great! I have to agree with @Chip-Valecek however, about the inconsistencies. You can fix it by trying to draw the characters in different angles : front, 3 quarters left and right and profiles so that you get an overall understanding as a 3D form. That’s what I would do I think. I hope it helps. Keep going!
-
@abbylucero The characters look different because these are sketches. I'm trying to find a look that I like and then will do turnarounds.
Thanks for looking
-
@kylebeaudette oh cool! It’s pretty good so far though. I’d love to see how the characters look later on.

Just got a job illustrating a local magazine, kind of freaking out about it as I would consider myself very new at this. I'm practicing some editorial things now, it's going to be about the fall/winter season in my area.

More crazy character work.

Did you just search around for a job like that or do you send in your work to the magazine, "post cards" is the term I think the 3PP guys use?
One man's crap is another man's manure...or something like that

@leothejediartist No, my wife knows the editor and they saw my instagram and contacted me. We are a small city, 47,000. Not a lot of artists, I guess.

Welcome! I am Canadian too. Great work thanks for sharing, you are going to love it here!
-
@kylebeaudette well that's pretty sweet. Congratulations
-
We have a Fall art show around my area, I'm thinking of printing off some prints. Not sure how to do that or where to go for high quality printout on semi thick paper?
Might print these two and some other stuff. -
Welcome fellow Canadian!
