Thanks. I think Equivalent Exchange already happened yesterday as I was able to have most of the day to myself getting chores & college stuff done & then making sure I stayed ranked #1 for a Strider leaderboard contest, so the day was overall good until the power went out. I'm just glad we were prepared this time & had a backup generator to plug the water pump in since it overfills and causes a mini-flood in the basement if it's not running.
We're suppose to get another storm tonight, so hopefully won't be as bad.
Ass, so you were paying for a good day! Oddball EqEx. Well, lets hope the "Good" side of the deal just continues now, then! I used to be in a place that got rare basement floods, those really suck.
@SAB CA Here at ToonamiGaf we appreciate all buttshots.
It's totally for the Toona'GAF People, ha.
Those sketch dumps are legit.
*fistbump*
I'm... glad this exist.
SAB, I look forward to and enjoy your sketch dumps every week so I hope you don't mind some criticism.
I'm not a fan of the collages and larger formats. I prefer it when you just do one small black and white box for each show. Less is more and those always look more polished to me. The limited space forces your creativity and the one color both looks cooler and cleaner than the crayon looking large color boxes. Also, Having them all black and white makes them look like they all belong as a set.
Well, tough, because that's the way it is! *RASBERRY!* LoL, no, seriously, I can totally understand that. I feel there's a bit of a plus and minus to each format, and I've always been better at naturally drawing smaller. Add on top of that the fact that it forces a bit of "pixel precession", which I also have due to doing spritework, and it agrees very well with each other.
The bigger pics however are a bigger hit on Miiverse for sure (That old DeviantArt curse: Anything with color INSTANTLY gets MUCH more attention and views :/ ), and trying to blur the lines between achieving Black & White mini clarity + something that actually plays with color, tone, etc is a constant challenge. Especially in the tight time-table allowed.
I am simultaneously fascinated and horrified by the Crayon look that AA gives, ha. On one hand, COLOR! And it does a good job replicating natural media. It rocks with Pencils, too, I love the grayscale. But then... CRAYON / Oil Pastels. It's like I'm drawing back in Elementary / Middle School, before I had better tools! Sometimes I get to escape the feeling (Kamiki, from last week, this week's Major, the Dandy Mega's) but other times...
Anywho, thanks, a little critique is appreciated! I've always loved artist who can sketch what looks like a finished work instantly, and these dumps each week basically show how close, and how far I am from that, simultaneously, ha. That's not the main point, but it's an ever-constant aspect that I'm constantly mulling over myself, so I like getting to talk-back on it some!
You should just random have LORD SESSHOMARU appear in drawings for other pages. For no reason
LORD SESSHOMARU lowered to mere cameos? Well, If I call him LORD SESSHY, I think I can get away with it. Don't be surprised if one night consist of Sessha-Sama commenting on every event of the night... because he can.
