I've been wanting to do this for a long time, basically, I didn't like too much the first design of Flex ( the last image), so I decided to make a few changes, mostly because I felt it looked a bit like vaporeon, and to simplify its color palette as well . This is my reimagining of one of the guardians from the video game Kameo. In the original design he had big fangs, although they weren't used for attacking, so I decided to exaggerate it even more XD In this reimagining Flex would swim like otters, but would also use electricity in his attacks, his paws instead of having pads would be frog-like, so he could stick to certain surfaces to move around.
This was a weird combination of working in grayscale, using the curve tool to add one color to the body, another to the light and shadow, then merging all the layers to turn it back to black and white and continue working on my values , and have a color copy. The color editing, took me more time than the shading or anatomy, I don't think this is the best way to work.
Hey, here is the rest of the practices I did, honestly it was easier than I expected, and I would have drawn more heads, but the canvas was already too big and I needed to do other things.
I didn't draw 3/4 because I didn't find an image I liked enough, so I think I'll be looking for more pose references to practice ^^"
They still have some flaws, but I'm glad they are not as difficult to draw as I remember XD When I have more time, maybe I'll do a second part, or maybe I'll practice with other felines, like lynxes, they're kind of complicated to draw, or cheetahs
Any type of criticism, or feedback is welcome ^^
This is the second part of the monster drawing.
The story goes that there are two islands, one of humans and another of monsters; and there are monsters trading in human trafficking, although I don't know with whom since I didn't make the story. The monster with the skull manages to rescue this girl and seeks to return her to her island, but everyone will stand in their way.
From what I understand she was a slave before the rescue, so she has several scars on her body, her story is quite cruel. Although I don't know how she got the glasses. I like to think she found them, while she was escaping, from survivors who didn't get very far before dying.
I should be doing homework, or working, but instead I made a drawing of my fursona, because I've been wanting to draw him for days. This time I removed the white spot on his chin since I don't like too much how it looks, but I don't know if it will be a change I will keep, or maybe I will paint it in other drawings :b I notice I only have three drawings of my fursona (counting this one) in profile XD I really need to update its reference and practice more poses. Anyway, the pose was inspired by the music video How I am by Unlikely Candidates, I loved the color palettes and poses in the video, and I want to draw some with my fursona to practice and experiment with styles :3
Well right now one of my chickens, and my quail are sick and I'm kind of sad to think about what to say but here is a portrait I've been working on these last 3 days. I was practicing on how to draw human faces and I decided to make a realistic portrait, but then I remembereddon't know how to render skin XD, I'm more used to painting fur. I decided to try to paint a portrait of Egan, or Small, because I haven't drawn him for a long time. I also want to update the reference sheet of Small, and Amranth. Here he looks more like a red head, but I'm still not sure what hair color I'll give him, since I don't like the hair color I originally used :b the same with Amaranth, I'll change his color palette a bit. Well, I hope it looks good, I know the proportions look a bit off, but I changed the position of the face as I worked, and that's why now it looks kind of weird.
This ended up taking more time than I expected, it's fun, but the stairs and ellipses is the only thing, I don't like to draw much :b though I like the end result.
Finding the VP and auxiliary vps of these references was a pain, but I think I'm getting better at locating them now XD Hopefully when I finish the course I have time to try to draw a scene with what I learn with one of my characters.
The last stairs were the most complicated to do, they turned out better than I expected, but I know I need to improve the perspective some places XD
When the teacher checked it, maybe I will update this work with the corrections, if I have time.
A 3d model I made in Blender and then switched to PS to paint it over, I really hoped it would be easier but it took longer than I expected ;-; Sorry if the cat doesn't look too good, I made it super fast. What do you think about the light? I try to do a more exagerated light and contrast.
Hey, I'm a digital artist and wanna be freelancer. I draw more than anything furries and animals.
