OleGL’s art thread

[OleGL]

I always dreamed of having a portrait of my tulpa Lia. Because of nobody could draw her better than myself I started learning to draw. I thought that the best way to reach my goal would be some practice. The harder - the better.

@OleGL

 

thank you.

 

I don't draw myself, yet I do like browsing art critique threads on other forums. Some of the biggest concerns I see is consistency in art style, preventing a picture from being to distracting/"busy" and encouraging those who draw to always study and return to anatomy as well as life-drawing.

Hell yeah! My favorite character is finally here lol :)

 

Meet Stallion!

It's a time for real people.

 

[OleGL]

Closer and closer...

While I'm struggling to draw a portrait of Lia, Lia draws myself as is.

Seems good

[OleGL]

Finally, this is Lia.

Are you using a particular school of thought for drawing? I have been practicing exercises out of the 'drawing on the right side of the brain' by Betty Edwards, and following some youtube how to draw videos... and drawing everyday with my four year old... but I have not seen any progression... except in my four year old.

 

PS, I like what's here.

[OleGL]

No, I just copycatted all the hell out there: faces, machines, birds, flowers. I bought the Wacom One S tablet and had some practice in the SAI2.

Then I asked Lia to make a posture and used a 3-d model of a human skull as a visual reference.

That's it.
