Another attempt at watercolours. I didn't really like how the colours came out on this one. Again, any advice on using this medium would be appreciated.

High Res.

Could you review this one please?

It's not bad. Although I think the proportions of the character's arms are slightly off.

I see you have added some highlights to the car. I think you should add some shading to it, as well as possibly emphasize the shading on the character a bit more.

I'm really liking what you have posted here thus far, particuarly the first one. I'll be looking foward to see what else you'll post here.

Looking good so far, Fifty. The linework looks quite clean and consistent. Just a question that I always end up asking with Flash drawings, what smoothing are you using?

more importantly where the hell have you been?

Oh right. Well, one of the main things I feel isn't good about it is some of the colours, and the fact that the lightsource doesn't entirely make sense. As for your question, I don't really know. Most of the time I've been lurking more than anything. But now I'm trying to be more active here.

Yeah. From my previous experiance, Paint.NET isn't a good program to work with when it comes to drawing.

Thankyou, Jow. :)

Again, it's been a while since I have updated my art thread. I want to hopefully get into the habit of updating it more frequently.

Anyway, I have recently acquired some watercolour paints, and I've been playing around with the medium. I thought I'd post something I did with them. I'm not pleased with this, it has some obvious flaws. But oh well, like I always say, practice makes perfect. Any advice or tips on using this medium would be greatly appreciated.

color it waaaaay later considering my hectic schedule.

Great revision of the original. I think this is one of my favourite line arts by you thus far.

I like it, interesting take on it. I like what you did with the shell.

The three you previously posted really remind me quite alot of TheBoogley's character designs.

The linework of the pieces you posted done in Flash look inconsistent.Just a tip, for smoothing out the consistency of brush tool linework in Flash can be to use the Sub-selection tool,(The small white cursor.)by dragging highlighted points of the selected linework to adjust the thickness of the it.

I like how the colours are blended on this one. Is this a work in progress?

At 11/26/10 04:43 AM, Fifty-50 wrote: Done?

I like it. The expression fits well. Just one thing though, the slightly blurred colours of the olive are a little distracting. May just be me though.

Here's your primer. You don't have to read all of it but it should give you an idea of how everything went to hell.

Oh, right. Well I guess that explains it.

What is actually going on around here?

In case you didn't know, Mega64 is in that game.

Yep, I knew that. A friend of mine who's a fan of Mega64 told me about this.

Looks really awesome,Fifty. I can't wait to see this finished.

Indeed it is. Newgrounds is better than DA in my opinion.

I might participate... though ussually when I say that about collabs I end up getting distractions. But eh, I might do something for it.

I don't know.

Interesting WIP. I rather like the armour designs in this one. Are you planning to add a background to it when you've finished colouring it?

I've never used the white arrow before (that's what it is right?). I usually just zoom in with an eraser and go from there.

Here's something else I drew today.

Oh, right. I was just curious. I tend to use it when I draw in Flash to even out the thickness of the linework.

I like the expressions in that drawing there. The background colours seem a little distracting, but that may just be me. Pretty cool drawing anyway.

I quite like some of the stuff you have in this thread. (Such as that character sheet .I liked the design of the helicopter in particular.) I know you draw in Flash, as you mentioned before, but out of curiousity, do you ever go over the brush line work with the Sub-selection tool?

Pretty cool doodle there, Ashman. Is that meant to be a mask or something though?

Fair enough. It is a doodle after all. Still, I did rather like the design of it.

For some reason I laughed.
