On this picture, the person has many shades on her, but when you translated it on paper, she lost that and is just a few lines and white space... A helpful tip is to set mid tones in order to judge light and dark. For instance, on several pictures you may see, people use brown paper, black charcoal, and white charcoal. They use the brown as a mid tone, the black as a dark, and the white as a light. Another thing you should do is look at how the light hits her. It doesn't light up all of her face, leaving it all light like you have drawn. Keep it up though, it certainly is fun to watch.

The immortal room faces it's latest foe.. NEAR EMPTINESS!

Gameplay Tuning:
Limit the ability to re-roll supply drops using Hardline Pro to Care Packages only, no other killstreak drops.

Meh, the exploit was fun enough, but kinda cheap.

Increased headshot multipliers for sniper rifles. Sniper rifles with suppressors equipped will now always be ensured one-shot kill headshots.

Finally, being that ghost sniper is really fun.

Subtle increase in sniper rifle accuracy when scoping in.

So it will take less time when you have to wait to shoot?

Additional minor reductions in knife lunge.

Awesome! :D

Pretty happy about these fixes.

Me too!

eh... photoshop just crashed on me.

b is open again. :'(

Well by full composition I didn't mean to imply you should be making huge finished pieces, but urh, working on the composition. I'm not sure how to explain it fully after saying 'where you put stuff' so here is a tutorial I quickly found (that I shall now go read myself): http://features.cgsociety.org/story_cust om.php?story_id=3275

Enjoy.

Thanks! Sorry, i when you said "full composition" the only two things I thought of were complete and painting. Thanks for the link though, really helpful and informative.

Yeah.
One, post in in the thread! (Please and thank you!)

I hate clicking links xP

Two, it needs more contrast and could be cropped of all that extra white space.
It probably hurts your eyes because you have to quint to make out any sort of detail (well, at least I had to.)

I will not forget the picture this time. Is this any better? I gave it a darker background, so its easier to see, but looks more faaabulous in the process.

Something I whipped up
Anything I should fix?

Practicing with hands, I used my own as a ref.
In the lower-left corner, I drew the ring I wear. (You can see a sliver of it in the lower-right drawing)
Oh and no, I was not really holding a joint (I wouldn't be holding it correctly if I really was anyways)

Probably some of the better stuff you've done recently. I really like the shading on the one with the joint or cigarette of whatever.

Awesome an art trade! Im definitely in. I only have 3 pieces in my portal, but if you're brave enough to load through the crap in my forum (link below) then you can have at that, too.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to draw very much due to a ton of school work, sports, projects, holidays, etc...
Anyway, on this guy, the nose (to me anyway) seems a bit large, but I can't decide.

No dix, You can pretty much draw anything you want as long as you keep it T and it is a unicorn in some way shape or form.

No dix?! But what would a unicorn collab be without at least one penicorn...

letdown.

To me, if I see an awesomely drawn piece, thats just flat out beautiful, it doesn't need purpose. If I see some abstract work, then I want to see a purpose of it, rather than random blotches of paint.
If the art is well drawn and I like it; needs no purpose.
If its abstract, then it does.

generally, like jonny and others have said, good art just comes from tons of practice and trial and error.

When your doing something abstractish like this, I think its important to have a definite purpose, so far I've just seen red, literally.
Keep it up though, more art= more comments

Also, if you like maths, I made a comic about maths that you might like.

I don't like maths but i like your comic about maths :3

Sticks and stones is the most frustrating game type yet. The shear amount of only knifers makes my head explode.

not to mention point blank tomahawks.

Whatever happened to that old bike?

Wouldn't you be better placed on a plate with stuffing and gravy?!

I see what you did there.

Hehe... I made another one...

dammit jonny, make a less fun activity thread!

Thats really cool! I've heard about this before... Through adult swim.

yeah i watch adult swim... :(

The shading doesn't seem very comic book style... Try some cell shading; Kashi is also right; actually draw out the other character, don't copy and paste it.

I often think sketches have a better look than finished pieces, they look more natural and less manufactured in my opinion. Which is why I think its good to keep that unfinished look in a piece.
