Week Seven: I See The Light

Okay, I realize it may not have been obvious before but hopefully now it is? It's Jean from Spriggan (who I write) with my friend's character Aiko reliving my favorite scene from Tangled. Toward the end GIMP didn't do what I want so I had to trace it onto clean paper so I could color it. The coloring went quite awry but thank God for digital programs.

It's not my most amazing piece, but it will pass. And from a distance it's nice to look at.

Week Seven: Progress Two (Artistic Nudity)

Isn't that an imaginative title.

Anyway, it turns out the whole thing will need to be colored digitally. Inking didn't go so well, so since there's now correction fluid on the original it would be impossible to color it traditionally and have it still look nice. But that's alright. It'll fit with the background better.

We had a young male model during class yesterday, which was quite different than the women and old man we've had so far. The musculature was interesting to do, and he took some poses from Michelangelo's works for the study. He had a very prominent brow ridge. It was neat but there wasn't really time or opportunity to draw it.

Week Seven: A Crossing of Sorts

Trying to do traditional again and it happens to be another couple on the same week as Valentine's Day. That wasn't actually planned but it works. This goes out to another Role Play partner for mine, so let's see how soon she recognizes these two.

They're dressed as Flynn and Rapunzel from "Tangled" and will be riding in a boat reenacting my absolute favorite scene; the release of the lanterns. The background will probably be digital for the sake of my sanity (and not spending a ton of money on dark markers).
