Trying to get better at painting, lately. I love doing 2D stylized art, but I've kind of ignored things like painting for awhile, so I'm trying to get back into it, especially because at work we've been having to do more realistic textures.
For starters, self portraits. I expect I will get very sick of looking at myself.
The first one, from yesterday:
The second one from today:
I'm trying to loosen up my brush strokes, because I have this tendency to smooth everything until it looks sort of cel shaded, while also being economical. Tomorrow I'm putting a time limit on these, because I sort of just painted until I had to take a potty break. I will also try to stop being slack jawed.
Oh my lord, Posemaniacs. I like to do at least ten minutes of 10-30 second drawings, just to loosen up a little before I start anything.
Ahaha... I love this character, I really do. I use her in a friend's tabletop game, as a female robot version of Sun Wukong. It's not really her fault, as she was commissioned by a rather silly man who wanted a little sex appeal for his martial arts school's advertisements on the telly, and instead got more than he bargained for with Hou-Zi, who is generally disrespectful, immature, exceedingly arrogant, selfish, and if she could, she'd fling her own poo. Used as brushpen practice.
