I wrapped it up in record time, thanks to the simpler coloring style. Actually it complemented the lines really well, so that worked out great.
I think the surprising thing about not drawing for a year is that I’m actually better at faces than I was when I left. On the downside, I’m worse at hands. So I guess that’s where I should practice.
This one is being entered in a “Day at the Beach” contest. We will see how it does. Thanks for visiting!
Having a deadline helps! I’m going to try to get this one wrapped up in time for a contest that ends on Sunday. I’m going to go simple on the colors, maybe a cel-shaded style. Wish me luck.
Made a little bit more progress on the beach girl this morning. Man, I love that hair style! I have an excuse to use it right now, since I’m out of practice, but I have to force myself to stay away from it once I start to improve a little bit. I also have to say, those vector ink brushes sure do make it easy to turn a sketch into a finished drawing.
