Description The mighty Kizer randomly hit me up a couple days back with a sketch of my character, and I was highly flattered, because if you know Kizer then you know that he knows his hit. Precisely.

Pencils: Kizer!
Colors: Me (Monk)

Software: Painter IX

By the way, at the moment the picture includes only my signature, but I'll add one in for Kizer soon and then update tomorrow.

I love bombface. He needs his own video game where he changes his look, style and bombs...

If you're talking about the lineart, you might want to ask Kizer.
Color wise, I just... stay within the lineart... I don't know, practice in handling a tablet?

Haha, actually the texture only shows up more obviously on the darker parts, that was totally not intended. But either, thanks man.

Pssst. What tools did you use to get them sweet textures?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

FabianMonk In reply to KFoster [2006-08-21 22:41:38 +0000 UTC]

I used the dull conte for the painting, but the most obvious textures are photo overlays. I also took photos of rough walls or whatever and then deleted parts of them with the wand tool to get this frayed and patched kind of look.

What brushes?
Conte?
Oil?
WHAT?!?!? i cant figure it out...

FabianMonk In reply to TragicHeroOfMercy [2006-08-21 22:37:45 +0000 UTC]

Why would you need to figure it out?
Roll with whatever suits you best.

It's Dull Conte though.

TragicHeroOfMercy In reply to FabianMonk [2006-08-21 22:48:13 +0000 UTC]

I hear you, but im havin a hard time getting a smooth feel with my colors.

Do you use any blenders?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

FabianMonk In reply to TragicHeroOfMercy [2006-08-22 00:15:28 +0000 UTC]

Nope. I feel blenders destroy the texture that brushes such as the Dull Conte create. Plus, the Conte blends quite easily naturally. Just gotta make slow strokes, with less and less pressure the further you go (provided you own a pressure sensitive tablet of course).

TragicHeroOfMercy In reply to FabianMonk [2006-08-22 14:50:39 +0000 UTC]

mines presure sensitive(im pretty sure) but is there any setting that you have to put it on so that the presure is enabled?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

FabianMonk In reply to TragicHeroOfMercy [2006-08-22 19:15:25 +0000 UTC]

In Painter I don't think so...
I forgot though, if it doesn't work then look around in the settings somewhere.

I don't think I'll ever get over how awesome your coloring style is. Your understanding of how colors interact with shadows and change is incredible.

Thank you! Though on this I basically just went wild, haha, throwing in a bunch of colors. Just keep in general harmony in mind and you should be set.
