fantastic work, still watch him today, classic British comedy that will live on for decades to come and your work will hopefully follow suit

Two Ronnies are better than one - pity I only had to paint one of them then.

That's sweet. I'm going to look about a bit, but before I do I thought I'd ask, have you the other one? You know, the tiny one?

Loopydave In reply to BuckleyTypographics [2011-03-20 07:01:23 +0000 UTC]
Only painted Ronnie Barker, not Corbett. Its a commercial job and the DVD is only about Mr Barker, unfortunately!

Any chance youΒ΄ll create some tutorial or do some livestream session in the near future?
I like your style and would love to see how you use photoshop and its tools, to improve my own skills a bit.

Here's some step by steps on my process if that helps. Not sure I'm the person to show you though - I'm very much self taught and a lot of the fun comes in discovering things for yourself

Those WIP pictures are pretty nice to look at, thanks for that.
Yeah i agree with that self discovering thing but it also is fun to learn from others. Especially if you feel stuck with some technics you explored and donΒ΄t get further development.
Maybe you want to share some tipps with hobby artists like me who pretty much enjoy your art.

Loopydave In reply to McDutt [2011-03-21 13:52:41 +0000 UTC]
Thanks - lovely of you to say
Not exactly sure what kind of advice you are after, but had a look at your work - lovely sense of volume and mass, and you do soft tones very well. I'd look at sharpening some of your shadows and lines in places, just for a little contrast to your lovely soft tones. Have a look at how some of the edges are quite sharp on your cool modelling of shirly Mcd (nice work there btw).
Anyway, good luck and thanks for checking out my work.
Cheers!

Wow thanks for peeking into my gallery and for the compliments.
"Sharpening some shadows and lines" yeah that sounds exactly like what my art could need, any ideas on how to handle that? (IΒ΄m using Photoshop and mainly use one maybe two layers for coloring.)
Oh and sorry for beeing so persisting^^

That is AMAZING! Just the kind of caricature art I'm trying to do. How do you paint the skin like that? It's awesome!

Awesome!!! Are you going to make Ronnie Corbett to go with him?.....Sitting in his big chair
Happy weekend [link]

Loopydave In reply to Aseamlessbonds [2011-03-19 13:17:18 +0000 UTC]
Would have been fun to do Ronnie Corbett too, but it was a commercial job for a solo Ronnie Barker DVD.
Cheers ma'am - have a lovely weekend yourself (thanks for the link )

mr.Loopy: i really (!!!) "dig" ( is this the word) your hair i mean not your-your, but the way u make it (vectors?) (or is it TOP S.?)

Loopydave In reply to seban001 [2011-03-19 12:58:21 +0000 UTC]
I created a lot of masks for the hair on ronnie, a bit like old school air brushing - as well as some quick strokes with the mouse. Doesn't look really real, but the stylized look kind of suits the style for this I think.
Cheers my friend - and 'dig' is the right word

Feel kind of embarrassed showing this kind of thing when you're around - you do real and amazing caracatures that just blow me away every time - do appreciate you checking it out though!
