Would Stitch from Lilo and Stitch be considered a Child?

All those years and it's still dangerous to go alone

Back lines done! I began the base coloring (not showing in this wip). Everyone concept is so interesting up to now!

Small update. Lineart is more or less done.

Quick update on my WIP! Taken my pen sketch and drawn it out in Sketchbook Pro.

Work in progress

50% Complete

That's all for today. Need some colors to make it "pop". And other details.

Adding a yellow tinge to the skin (particularly around the eyes) would definitely make it pop because of the fact that purple and yellow are opposites on the colour wheel.

Here's my full WIP: My Childhood Memory

my early sketch for "Old Bob the Drunkard"

Your shadows would definetly need to be refined. The calendar doesn't even have any. When I talk about shadows, I talk about smooth colored shadows, it will help to make people really grasp the tragic mood. Right now, it's too bright.

And the mood could afford to be darker. It just doesn't feel scary enough because all the colors look bright.

OLDBOB the Drunkard Version 2 .
Just a few hours ago, my mom came and saw what i was doing... and she really appreciated a bunch of drawing i had done and then suddenly i end up doing this... So that's what a mother's blessing is...
The thing is this is the second time i have done any kind of painting in my life.

Had no idea what I wanted to do for the contest, until a childhood memory came to me, and so this idea came to mind!

There, finished mine.

  (Everyone)

Wonder if people know what medium some of those easter eggs are from.

Working on a quick sketch for my entry. Doing a famous magician as a little kid doing a talent show.

I decided to go with old man Sora from Kingdom Hearts welcoming some of the newer Disney Characters into the game :)
I'm also doing a different style of painting then my usual as practice.

Thanks :3

First shading... Trying to decide weither the fire under the cauldron or the potion or both will be the lighting source... Also, I think i'll make it night outside because if I don't, I'll have to worry about another light source with the window. Big puzzle as you see :)

edit: just realised the colors between photoshop and here is way off too... In psd they are much brighter. Even in my browser it's brighter. There is just here that the colors looses their vibrances (not sure how to put that otherwise)

Do you have Proof colors turned on? I found that having them turned on makes it look like CMYK mode, and you don't want that if you want to stay in RGB space. And it doesn't export your image in those colors.

I would say to use both light sources. If you can handle it. Maybe one of those light sources, depending on which one is stronger (or whichever one it is you want to have more focus), should be the primary light, and the other one will only slightly affect the areas or parts of objects around it.

Personally, I think it would be a lot easier to start with the background and color and shade the characters last. It's a lot easier to pick colors for the foreground once you've established the atmosphere.

Proof colors? Where is that? Never heard of it... For the characters, as I said I was supposed to only have one light source, which didn't showed off so I thought doing background could be done last since I don't like doing them for all sorts of reasons. First being I always hesitate on the amount of details and end up putting too much or not enought. Howerver, if I was too add the window as a light source, it would be a good idea.... Only thing is how will I do that? So... adding a new light source from behind on the right corner would affect slightly the old panoramix and not too much on the younger one. Unless I do just like the original house and put a dim ligth source from above and left corner.... No... One is enought problem already.

Ok. So window light to work on and background to do. And need to find that color thingy too so it looks better on here. Thanks for the help! And sorry for the rambling up there. Was trying to figure out something :)

edit: found out the proof colors with the help of internet, and it was not checked. I'm in adobe rvb 1998 with relative colorimetry. The problems only show on newground too so maybe it as something to do with the site? I also compared the jpeg file to the psd files and they look alike. Same thing when I export the jpeg file directly on my browser (which is safari).

I don't know why a particular site would display the colors differently. If it's the same jpg file, it should look the same on a different website, so long as you stay on the same browser. Most of the color problems result from not using the correct color profile. You have to find one that closely matches your monitor.

I meant the light sources from the potion and the flames, but you can include the windows too. I find it might detract from the rest of the image, so if you choose to use the window light source, you'd have to make it dim enough that it won't interfere with the light from cauldron.

You don't have to do all the details in the backgrounds right away. Just a simple color wash, and maybe really general details and forms, but nothing specific. That would be enough to create an atmosphere you can work with.

Ohh. Ok, that's a relief. I didn't wanted to do the window light for that reason and also because it's too complicated for nothing. As for the colors, I guess i'll have to look into it. I don't use a monitor, just the regular macbook air screen with optimised settings as told in class. For the background, I should have guessed XD Bad habit of mine to do everything at the same time. Thanks again for the tips :P

Edit: I think I found out why the colors are "grayer". I tried to upload the jpeg on my personal dumping ground/archive and the colors were just right. So, I guess it's the forums that somehow lowered the quality or altered it to make it fit here. That's all I can think of right now.

I haven't played too much with the color profiles on my computer, but I find the LCD one works fine for Macbooks. Most likely because the System Preferences Monitor setting says the color profile is Color LCD.

In general, you'll want to do details for anything last because it's a more efficient workflow. If you do them last, you can fix mistakes earlier more easily, and you save yourself the trouble of adding details to parts that don't require them.

The linework.

The finished product posted though.

Good Luck everyone! ^_^
