Man you guys are amazing. I'm trying to get better at coloring with photoshop, any tips? A friend of mine wants to make a comic and he asked me to color it for him. I have colored some stuff before but I don't think that highly of my work, at least not yet. To me my stuff looks pretty basic so I dunno. I'm nowhere near what you guys put out from what I've seen in this thread. Here's the last image I colored up just for practice and trying to learn some stuff.

Went on Deviantart and took a random lineart and colored it.

I'm sure there's a ton that can be improved so any of you that can share some wisdom, please do!

So this is my first ever completed drawing ever. usually i just practice and sketch and sketch and sketch but i finally decided to actually complete one of my sketches. This was also my first time inking something, I fucked up alot of shit but I'm overall pretty proud of it.

 

[Foxy Fox 39]

Working on a crazy ambitious piece that's probably gonna take me another month to finish it. Once Im done its coming straight to GAF lol.

Anyway. Some quickies I did the other day.

I like the sail boat. Very classic style of painting

Those are some gnarly hands/feet. Very Hogarth.

Very nice. Your brushes look natural, what are you using?

 

[ExMachina]

Playing way too much TF2 lately...

And a quick Nathan Drake. This fall season's gonna be too crazy with game releases. O.x

 

[Typographenia]

Man, I haven't posted in here in a while.
I apologize for the art dump...


Here are the rest of the paintings from my last semester.

Some sketches.

Linked due to nipple. (double standards, I know)

 

[Raging Spaniard]

My friend Rens decided to ink the Makoto piece, he did a badass job!

 

[OchreHand]

Very nice. Your brushes look natural, what are you using?

Thanks. For the longest time I was using the standard chalk brush in Photoshop. Last year I downloaded brushes by the insanely talented Jaime Jones (aka Cicinimo). Most of his brushes have a nice grain to them and a rough edge which I like a lot. Linky

These are incredible, pretty much replaced most of my own brushes. Thanks for sharing

hey no prob... for the longest time I resisted new brushes, but they really do help getting certain effects easier and quicker

I am doing some pieces for an art show that a friend of mine puts on, and I painted up one of my favorite parts of Demon's Souls for one of the pieces. I still might add more, but it's about 99%

I suppose this would be my first fan art for this game...

I thought it was Twilight Princess!

 

[Foxy Fox 39]

I thought it was Twilight Princess!

yep. With the bridge, and the iconic silhouette of link. Was surprised it wasn't. Either way great art.

 

[oracrest]

I thought it was Twilight Princess!

That's funny, a friend that was over thought it was Link too.

That's cool!

 

[thebaroness]

I finally got this series of Avatar prints finished

http://chicochan.deviantart.com large ones are here on my DA

 

[MrBig]

Starting work on a portfolio

This came out a little more boring than I anticipated

 

[stufte]

MrBig, that character sitting on the log could benefit hugely by having a nice rim light. It would also help define the shape that is getting lost around the head.

 

[Prax]

I haven't posted in forever. I went into hibernation socially (even from internet!) and just lurked for a long while. I blame stress from schooling. >__> At one point, I even stopped drawing and that scared the crap out of me. I started up again in the last few months, so I'm much happier now!

All of you continued to be awesome though <3.

I won't spam with all my new stuff, but I really liked doing these two because I got to play with different cartoon styles. You guys should try it too! Have fun flexing your art muscles and style range! Blank can be found here: http://thats-your-funeral.deviantart.com/art/Style-Meme-108968074

I just became a watcher of yours on deviant art

 

[SHAZOOM]

Still working on freelance work. If anyone's interested, I'm offering commissions/sketches.

 

[Typographenia]

baroness, nice prints! I'm really looking forward to the new series.

Prax, great work on recreating all of those styles! I have a hard enough time staying consistent, so I'm very impressed.

Shazoom, hooray! Someone else is an appreciator of John Kantz on this forum!
Oh, also, MORTAL KOMBAAAAT!

Dude that is fucking crazy awesome. How do you make it look like that?

 

[Herpes Reasons]

I'm sure there's a ton that can be improved so any of you that can share some wisdom, please do!

Photoshop is just another tool for artist to implement their ununderstanding of color. Read books on color theory.

Neat! I love the colors.


I hardly ever post in this topic, but I definitely should! You guys have some amazing stuff. I'll definitely keep an eye on some of this stuff.

Since we're posting our own stuff, here's my most recent poster I did, for Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro...

I have some more stuff on my Tumblr and my Society6 page, too.

 

[Ellis Kim]

^^^ oh my, I want that as a poster.

Can you do a Nausicaa and a Princess Mononoke one too? :x

I think I may stalk you now.

 

[arter_2]

some new stuff for you guys

 

[Roody]

^^^ oh my, I want that as a poster.

I fucking love Ghibli films, so yes, I'm very much considering it.

If you want it as a poster, just click on the Society6 link, and you can purchase it there at movie-poster size (or smaller, if you wish), and support a starving artist.

And a stalker? My first one! lol

Much appreciated! Glad you like it.

 

[stufte]

here's a study I did of a bit of background from some bungie concept art

Please note: I realize that this isn't original, just trying to learn how to throw down shapes faster, and I love the style of the original.

Cross post from the Zelda Art thread, but I feel it belongs here also:

Here's just a really quick sketch I did with Copic markers. Mainly because I wanted to experiment with the blue shading style used in SS artwork. Nothing special.

It's kind of a cross between LttP Link and SS Link.

And here is a detailed ballpoint pen drawing I did in a A4 Moleskine (A3 when open). No particular scene/area, just Zelda themed.

See http://mistle22.deviantart.com/ for more work

 

[DM_Uselink]

I posted this on the Gears 3 thread, wanted to share with art-gaf too. This was done for a contest at Deviantart.

[Dali]

I'm really diggin' this. Reminds me of this one artist who I can't recall and I can't seem to find his deviant art. His style is evocative of the character designs from the Teen Titans show on Cartoon Network.

[silentcapybara]

I wasn't sure where to post this, but does anyone happen to know how to make an image look like this? I'd appreciate any tips. Thanks.
