I’m still working on my Clown’s Trailer… but have recently burnt out from studying too much. I felt like just drawing the figure from the imagination. I still have a long ways to go, but I do see some progress.
I’m going to do some more figures today!
This is great. It has an amazing feel of kinetic energy. You are very talented. And because of that I despise you!
Wow really good. One of the most difficult things I find in drawing is being able to nail certain poses, like if you want to do an original piece. Sometimes I can’t find a reference anywhere and end up trying to use multiple different pics to get the specific pose I want which isn’t ideal.
What do you use for your poses?
Thank you so much! This is without reference, Anna. I draw in Photoshop.
Jeez!!! That is some talent!! Especially when it’s a mid-motion pose. I can’t do that.
love your work…you have some talent!
Thank you so much, @rogueone! Thank you everyone else for the kind comments. I’m going to draw some more today!
I like your work a lot. You have a clean and precise stroke. It gives the impression that you feel comfortable with the pencil and that you have a natural talent.
Congrats!!
Very well done. What sort of software is Photoshop? Any free downloads for it? Thanks.
Hey @Borath,
Thank you for the kind comment!
Photoshop is a bit overkill if you just want to sketch. I would recommend Autodesk Sketchbook (https://sketchbook.com/). Sketchbook is free, whereas Photoshop requires a subscription.
Personally, I use Photoshop with a Wacom Intuos Tablet and a plugin called ‘Lazy Nezumi Pro’, because I do a lot more with painting and because Photoshop has superior plugin capabilities. If you’re looking to just try out the concept of digital sketching (and painting), I would recommend Sketchbook with a cheap Wacom tablet (probably an Intuos).
Sketchbook has layer capabilities, as well, so you can sketch a rough, then overlay a smooth trace afterwards, which is the process that I use.
If you really want to use Photoshop (a very powerful image-editing program), I’d recommend getting a Wacom tablet, then getting the plugin ‘Lazy Nezumi Pro’ to smooth out your strokes. Sketchbook has its own internal smoothing engine, however, by stark contrast.
I like overkill, so Photoshop suits me!
