Here's my alien assignment! The liquify tool is actually really fun 
Thank you! I finally cleaned that up. Meanwhile started 3 more ..I have a habit of taking too long to finish a piece, then I lose interest in it and just start something else. I found 8 from recently i started and abandoned, that are decent enough to not delete, but not finished. There’s also been a number of drawings I felt I “outgrew” - became better before I finished them, and it would be easier to start from scratch than fix them. Anyone else thinking that?in24.0k
Lady Death Fanart Collectible: Part 6 Polypaint and base Hi, it’s time to share with you another part of the process to create this fanart piece. Polypaint As this is my first collectible fanart I didn’t have previous experience with polypaint so I tried my best and played a bit with it.I wanted to give a ghostly and eerie look to Lady Death, she is beautiful and deadly, but at the end of the day she is a woman that died and was reborn at hell as an avenging spirit, that’s why I gave her skin tone a bluish very cold tone.As you will see I gave myself some creative freedom to deviate from the traditional color scheme that this characater has in comics and illustrations.To add a bit of sensuality by painting some freckles on the face and the chest. The dark nature of this character was the perfect excuse to gave her a kind of goth make up, very dark shadows around the eyes, blue lips and fingernails. I know that the original character includes sexy red lips but I wanted this girl to have a sexy but at the same time creepy look, that’s why we can see some thin veins emanating from her eyes. The biggest chromatic change I did for this character is at the hair. Lady Death has a characteristic white weavy hair but in my fanart I decided to gave her a very saturated blue color.The reason behind this wasn’t only an aesthetic choice. I want that the face area strongly pulls the attention of the viewer so this area needed a stronger contrast. Another reason is that I want her to have a more modern look, as I mentioned before, I’m strongly attracted to women with goth/punk look. I gave myself half an hour or more to analyse the work of experienced sculptors that create collectibles and I discovered that the use of darker values on the skin is often applied to create a greater sense of volume and three-dimensionality. I found that areas with heavy ambient occlusion are the perfect places to paint with darker colors in order to increase the separation between different forms. Even though she has a bluish skin tone, I used a bit of warmer hues in areas that, in real life, tend to go towards red and pink, this is very obvious in the nose, cheeks, and knuckles. Thinking with a logical mind it’s completely absurd to have warmer tones on the body of a zombie like creature but I didn’t want to limit myself by using only blue tones, it looks boring and artificial. In real life these colors are created by blood vessels in areas where the skin is very thin. ** Scythe **for her weapon I applied a cool gray with some warmer variations, this color scheme is influenced by the work of H.R giger. Base I’d like to talk about the design for the base which, to be honest, I forgot to develop along with the character.My main idea with the base is to show that Lady Death inhabits a very sterile and arid land, at the end of the day she is at hell.You can see a that she walks over dirt and rocks, a sign that she’s surrounded by death and loneliness. As part of the landscape we can see some bones and skulls to reinforce the idea of lack of living creatures, yet we can see three hands that try to reach her legs.This hands represent that all creatures are subordinated to her power and seek an evil blessing with a simple touch of the princess of the damned.1- The hand with skin burns represents the souls of those who are newcomers to hell, tortured souls that suffer for the sins comitted on earth.2- The hand with greenish rotten skin and pustules is the reminder of the decay that has infected the souls of those who have been trapped and have forgotten their humanity3- Last but not least, the hand of a demon shows that even dark creatures and entities bow before her presence. The cherry on the top, at least in my vision, are the simese twins that emerge from the ground, this malevolent creatures remind us that in hell there’s only perversion and any trace of innocence is lost. Thanks for reading till this pointI’m really happy to be very close to finish this creative journey, last but not least it’s mandatory to talk about splitting the sculpture in several pieces to be printed, this will be my last entry before showing the final rendered images. See yaMay Zbrush be with youin1.4k

But nothing is discouraging enough to make me quit drawing. I think the strategy of drawing a lot of stuff and waiting a while to post is good though rather than posting it immediately and then feeling that sadness on the next set of drawingin

Thank you @daceronine! If I remember I save in google cloud, I will have to stick a note to do it more often. Lamp is from life. Poses are from refs but I look at refs for a while and then try to do it myself and look it up if needed. Outfits and rest is from imagination Something went wrong while installing system so we will have to wipe everything again... pc works but something is wrong. We will wait till internet is done and I will save everything on cloud this time Threads came out in eu. It's been 3 days and I had more engagement than after half a year on instagram. It feels really nice I hope it stays this way A portrait of old dude. It's the same character I posted a while ago. Inspired by Bayard Wu work. At first I thought of him as a bear but I named him Fenrir and I think wolf suits him better. Eye gave me a bit of hard time but I think it is fine now. I focused on face and forgot about area below. The way I draw hair clashes with greying hair. I had the same problem while doing Lohse's white hair. Does it looks like it is greying here? I love how desaturated red looks blue there. I keep lying to myself that I will use different color scheme but It all comes down to this blue and yellowish one it is just flipped this time Have a great day!in47.5k
Here's the dream house assignment! I think I might redo it soon because it really failed lmao 
The main issue I see with the dream house assignment is the edges. It looks like the fence is supposed to be behind the flowers but the edge on the fence is too soft, it looks like the fence is fading into the flowers instead of behind them. The roof, on the other hand, should have a softer edge, not super soft, just a bit so it doesn't have as much of a cut-out look.
Everything else looks good! looking forward to seeing what you do with future assignments
Thanks Matt!
I tried making the edges of the flowers being harder, but then there was the whole cutout issue as well. I'll go through that part of the lesson again and give the assignment another go soon
Today's 30 second gesture drawings before I go back to working on my webcomic!
I typically draw my gestures in my sketchbook with a coloured pencil and I know Marc said in the Nude figure drawing class that I should use whatever I'm most comfortable with for the gestures, but everyone else here seems to be doing them digitally and it is a digital art course... it's not like I can't do digital art either, so I took the challenge!
One thing is that I need to remember to draw feet lmao
Day 2 of gestures!
Today feels a lot worse than yesterday. My 1 minute poses even look worse than my 30 second ones from yesterday, but oh well :'D We all have our bad da
ys.
Day 3 of digital gestures!
Although I've been doing gestures on and off for a couple years now, what Marc said about how the poses need to feel grounded has really helped a lot! I try to put feet in on every pose now, although sometimes in the images, the feet aren't visible. so then I don't. I've also been trying to focus a lot more on the pose itself before building up the form, which creates much less complete looking drawings, but I think there's a lot more to be learned this way.
Unfortunately I'm still busy with commitments to other art projects, so I can't get through assignments very quickly, but I figured that just doing 30 mins of gestures every day can't hurt!
Anyways, here are my gestures! I'm more happy with them than yesterday and I also made a photo set, so that I can track my progress on the specific photos, which is exciting!
Here's my gestures for day 4!
Today I took the advice of @Shellac-Belly to add markers where the elbows and knees are. I think this made my poses a bit stiffer and it definitely took a lot more time away from things such as form, but it definitely did help me to be much more aware of where the joints actually are. I also decided that it would be helpful if I drew basic ribcage and pelvis markers. This helped me to understand where the legs attached a lot more than without.
The suggestions I've been getting have been really changed my view on what it is to make a gesture drawing. It's difficult, but I'm sure I'll learn a lot from it!
Day 5 of gestures!
I didn't get round to doing any yesterday, oops! I'm not too worried about that though. I think it's more important to do it as frequently as possible rather than being incredibly strict with a streak and then feeling like you've ruined everything if you miss a day.
Currently, what I have learnt with doing gestures in a lot more of a structured way than usual, is that it has been helping me to spot the line of action a lot more quickly and to begin to spot subtle bends in joints and such. I wonder if this is because I'm using the same photos over and over again, or if I truly am learning. Maybe I should mix it up and try some different photos to see if I can apply my skills elsehwhere. Idk
I think today I was a bit too stiff with everything. Hopefully I'll loosen up a bit tomorrow!
Also, as a bonus, here is a WIP of some Lucifer fanart that I'm making. I usually prefer much thicker lines, so this feels quite odd tbh.
