Pjanoo's art thread.

[Pjanoo]

Sup. Almost everything is a WIP.

[Pjanoo]

I made this today as a pose practice and it got out of hand, detailing/proper shading is yet to be done.

[Pjanoo]

here's this, I'm not proud of this.

The details are so soft on these I can barely make anything out.

I already said, most of them are WIPS, the ones I just posted are WIPS.

by the way, I love ALOT of the art you make. It is just gorgeous.

<3

but back on topic the ONLY one of those that is in any way detailed is the head of the guy I made for a pose. The rest is basically practice. except for the alien thing, but I can understand where you're coming from on the whole I can't make anything out since on that one and the others I pretty much used the same color for everything out of laziness. Also over-all it's just VERY blurry.

So you finally make a thread, so are you just showing us? Or is there feedback and criticism you want brought upon these pieces? With out knowing that people will probably look at it and not say a thing or as myself, won't be able to make out what the pieces actually are. At least not until you post the pieces further along in the process.

[ImKingLouie]

Oh thanks.

I know it's hard to finish a pictures when there's so many things you want to do. My HDD isn't just filled with uncolored sketches, but half composed MIDIs and unfinished C++ projects. I almost never get around to uploading something finished.

Do you start with a sketch or just block out shapes with color?

The first one would look great with some blue shadows and yellow highlights.

I just start out with blobs of color and give it a form and basically go with that.

I'm basically posting these than continuing it along, at least the ones that I like/want to detail.

Update, I don't really like it. When I crank up the contrast I feel like a cheater :(

Also, WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY HANDS.

Can anybody help me with that?

also this is still a WIP.

[ImKingLouie]

I can make out the arms but I'm not sure where the hands are. I can only assume the two round things under his face are pectorals.

If your trying to draw a figure, you should really plain it out somehow. Whether you block it out with colors or sketch it first. Blobs are all fine I guess if your just trying to express yourself.

I know, but so far I always never plan it out and it turns out looking weird 99.9999% of the time, I really need to.

Also, I didn't even know how I was going to do the hands so I kind of just made these circles. (sorry if it hurt your eyes) arms are still being worked on. I kind of just did the face in 15 minutes so it's nothing good and I have to fix it (pectorals, ear positiong, etc).

But honestly I am very new to digital painting. It's kind of hard and I wish there was a way for me to make solid colors with solid lines that look decent with a mouse. Because I would LOVE that instead of lowering the flow and kind of just going with it.

I think it's also important I have no idea how I do anatomy.

posting this here.
also while I'm bothering, I'd say to make the head shape more head shaped. You may as well throw in a forehead and neck as well as a proper chin, there is not mus of a reason to have it just be a circle.

Actually, I just did this to see what I could do with a circle but went ahead and did what you told me to do.
