just google marakesh and you will find the image

It's late! Gotta draw fast. I have no attention span, either.

Done with 8B and 3B digital pencils. No erasing!


Also, Mermaid(s?) done today.

I want to get better at anatomy, so this is my first time doing timed gesture drawing - EVER!

I had each pose set at 120 seconds (2 minutes) but the first one I was futzing about with my windows trying to get the image and Photshop side by side in a way that I could draw, so I wasted at least 20 seconds, if not 30-40. Anyway, right-to-left, top-to-bottom, I did 7 until I "ran out" of digital paper. :D


I did a lot better than I thought I would. YAY! :D


This was using the timed poses at http://www.quickposes.com/gestures/timed

Not a lot of time lately... So here's a digital pencil sketch (2B). Maybe 30 minutes???


Adding something else I started late in the evening... Almost an hour ago. It's a WIP so far. A thousand faces...

Just getting back into it after a few weeks break.

I thought I'd try doing the timed gesture drawings again, as it's been a while since I've done that (been away from home for close to two weeks, and I was thinking I'd do it once a week minimum). Thought I'd try doing it with clothing too... the first image was of a skeleton dressed as the Grim Reaper... (and I was still working on setting up PS + browser side-by-side) so I missed more than half of my 120 seconds... :/


I'm pretty pleased with some of the later attempts in this picture. But I think I need to go back to nudes/nearly nudes to really get that anatomy practice in, which was really the whole point of this. Some of these would've been awesome (like that ballerina!) though, if I had more than 2 minutes to work on it with the reference.


My eyes also started leaking tears (BRIGHT SCREEN!) on the last 2-3 people... So... had to stop (hooray for end of the canvas I made!).

Es la primera vez que hago de pixel art. Últimamente estoy bastante enganchado a Gravity Falls y me pareció que podía ser un buen comienzo. Estoy seguro de que intentaré hacer el resto de personajes, y espero que el resultado me guste tanto como este.

This is my first time doing pixel art. I've been watching Gravity Falls lately, and I thought it would be a good start. I'm pretty sure i'll try to make the other characters, and I hope I like the result as much as I like this.

Sketches from meetings. I'd say 10 min and 2 min.

I like the pencil one. The ink one not so much. Ear placement was less than perfect.

I don't think I did as well as I did yesterday with the anatomy practice. :/

I was really excited for the second last pose (bottom left)... but it was gone too fast! Same settings as yesterday (120 seconds each).

Also... my first attempts drawing male genitalia.. (so bad!)... I still need a lot of work, obviously. My personal goal is to work on this once a week. I didn't really mean to do it today, too, but I had no ideas, so I shrugged and was like "why not this again?".


Oh well, at least I tried...


Then I wanted to do something fun, so I quickly drew the lynx guy, and coloured him, all in under 15 minutes. *shrugs*

I realize this isn't great... I did 3 other full canvases worth of stuff (and a full page of doodles on the back of something at work).

They're all rather sad, and blue, mood-wise, quality-wise, ...and colour-wise. I'm most pleased with my weirdest final one... which isn't here.... because I don't think people would like it, even though I do. It is totally how I'm feeling though, I guess! XD

EDIT: I added the weird one that was/is my mood. XD



A little more time for these sketches today...

Again some quick sketches via Croquis Cafe. Pretty busy these days...

Want to get this in before the deadline. I'm still working on it. :D

EDIT: And... the second picture is what I feel satisfied with for the moment. I have something else going on with the clouds... So I need to work on them more... And I might just add more detail in general... But that's it for now. :)

I may go back and work on this more later. I wanted to do something detailed... But ran out of time. Also, it's harder than I thought it would be without actual measurements... Been a while since I did this!

I was thinking about something from Emisan's Text Adventure thread... :D

Approximately 1 hour.

This is the last of a bunch of warmup sketches done with this awesome figure drawing tool:

Unfortunately I don't really have a good camera at the moment, so the picture is pretty blurry...

about 15 min. I'm no good with animals ;

My current aim is to improve my proportions and anatomy so I've dug out an old anatomy book and did a few quick figure/gesture drawings. It seems I'm a lot quicker, when I use the broad side of the pencil and not the point.

Just wanted to paint something starting with a background colour again. The kanji in the centre can both read "Tai", and the WaniKani mnemonic for the first one says "imagine a big an in a tie-dye shirt" (it means big). It can also be read as "dai"... The second means body... *shrugs*

My first entirely digital art piece! :D Got my first graphics tablet yesterday, and I really think I'm getting the hang of using it. This is one of my newer OCs, Trysa. :)

Done while watching the finale episode tonight (missed the last two during the summer).

He tenido problemas con este tío. Haciéndolo no sabía si hacer la cabeza del mismo estilo o ser fiel a los dibujos. Al final decidí dejarla de esta forma,creo que quedará mejor con el resto. Estaba pensando en hacer un fondo para ponerlos todos juntos. Estoy seguro que me llevará tiempo y muchos intentos, así que iré poniendo el progreso.

I had problems with this guy. When doing it, I didn't know if I should make the head in the same style as the others, or make it more similar to the cartoon in a cone shape. I decided to keep this shape, maybe it fits better with the others. I'm thinking about doing some background to put them all together. I'm sure it will take a lot of time and tries, so I'll be uploading the progress.
