There’s a reason I’m not the designer, but I’m having a go too:

Edit: there’s a reason I’m not the Tech people too. I’m @1fishonabike on instagram if you’re fussed enough to want a look.

Use Postimages.org Hannah.

Looks good mogrim. that four eyed Tiger makes me go cross eyed, think my brain is trying to treat it like one of those 3d magic eye pictures! Love the wasp and beetle, brilliant.

Interesting stuff Hannah, particularly liked “shy” as an interpretation

good stuff on there hannah, post up some up here, join in. 🙂 you can use http://www.imgur.com or postimages as per drac.

Marv. Blood and plasters added supplemented in ps.

you’ve got that style nailed dunno why you are doubting yourself!

Without wanting to get into a “woe is me” diatribe I guess I was frustrated last night by not being able to settle on or execute an idea. I initially wanted to do a white drawing on black to keep in with the Sin City aesthetic and my style (for it is just my style) really doesn’t lend itself well to that. Now I could have taken my time and refined my lines and figured out exactly where the shadows and highlights needed to fall once I’d gotten the composition down but I just couldn’t.

I haven’t so much nailed a style as become trapped by it. I can draw other ways but they require a lot more planning or forethought and I now very quickly default to a line heavy, sketchy style.

Gah. It’s all moot anyway because more drawing and more practice would obviously get me over this hump, but you know it’s like when you’ve developed a bad habbit riding the bike or something. Even though they are bad habbits you become reliant on them and they are hard to break.

I follow this dude on IG who is a bit handy with the ink and also draws MTBs

Just for sheer hypocrisies sake! 😆 Could spend a lot more time fixing this up properly as there’s loads still needing done, but this is todays skive(pens and paper would be a bit too obvious)!

I’m no including this in my 31!

Well I for one couldn’t care less what you use. It’s not like you’re claiming it to be something that it’s not. Well done, although your ink drawings are superior.

Just thought I’d give it a go, no done anything like that since college years ago, use it all the time though for other things, I don’t get paid to be an illustrator, my job’s much more mundane!

You know one thing that’s always really annoyed me about photoshop, why isn’t there a keyboard shortcut to rotate a brush, live, I know you can do it in the panel, but that’s clunky. Or is there and I’ve just missed it? Would come in handy if I decide to add the fine detail to that image. infact I’ll need to see if i can set a custom short cut, it’s mibbe in there.

Still much prefer seeing manual artwork though. But aye, you can take this a surrender on the photoshop point! 😉

one and only from me though, ink all the way, getting an addiction to drawing i think.

That’s brilliant, really like that malvern. excellent.

I also like that. Not sure exactly what it is, but spooky all the same. Is that zen brush?

If only all forum/general internet stuff that teetered on arguments, ended up like this; an acknowledgment of differences and hat-tipping to respective talents.

Probably the fact talents are in play makes that difference 🙂

Is that zen brush?

Yep. Zen Brush 2

Not sure exactly what it is

A solitary fat arrogant f***. Greedily warring with lumbering surety. A bloody sword in one hand, the heads of enemies in the other. A black sun in the sky. A sea of blood.

Thanks for positive comments folks. Have been working this last 2.5 years with pigment, brush knives and last year began sketching ideas at night again with the iPad. It will be inked when I’ve mixed a big batch. It feels like it has to be very big!

Keep on drawing – agree this is an energising and creative thread ❗

I am reminded of

I’ll no post the source this time, see if anyone can guess who it is.

I’d probably get a kicking round these parts for this kinda sacrilege!

(I really believe in this having to do a couple of hundred of portraits before I get any good, this is number 3, 😆 )

No 13. the big plook on the end of his nose if very dissapointing, that was ment to be light, picked up the wrong pen!

hmm, thought that worked on here.

After reading about Adobe Sketch on this thread I’ve had a quick go at impressionist finger painting….

I’m seeing some kinda pagan/tribal sacrifice in that, maybe under an eclipse or to the some kinda dark sun god. It’s really interesting I think.

That’s disappointing. It was supposed to be my puppy

😆

😆
Pretty sure sacrificing puppies in pagan rituals belongs in the unwanted thoughts thread

Jock Stein?

Jock Stein?

Don’t be silly. Who’d name a puppy Jock Stein?

Oops, didn’t see the spoiler.

tread carefully here! 👿 😆

Is it Ronnie Pickering ? 😉

😆

Back in hospital, and forgot to bring any pens/paper, so here’s my first ever attempt with a tablet and finger, using paper app as it’s an old iPad 2 and won’t run sketch book.

Made a start…doubt I will finish today 🙁

Not super happy with doodlebugs. Model was a airfix model.

12/31 “Spitfire” unfinished. #redthunder by [/url] – Flickr2BBcode LITE

Lots of vampires on my prompt list. Not many of them I am familiar with so …a scary vampire from my youth.

liking all those!

Hellboy next I think. Never drawn him before iirc.
