Description Pencil and watercolors. I keep meaning to get around to doing some more watercolor pieces. I usually don't like messing with colors outside of photoshop, but watercolors were fun.

I agree, I was never very happy with the steam. Thanks

Zafireria In reply to primusjim [2007-09-15 12:46:46 +0000 UTC]

I mean it is because the smoke it very thick, it don't look transparent.
And np

primusjim In reply to Zafireria [2007-09-15 14:11:35 +0000 UTC]

I understood what you were talking about. I think I did the steam in acrylic, while the rest of the piece was in watercolor, and it never really looked good. The steam isn't near transparent enough and it's just one thickness all the way up, it needs to alternate between being thick and thin.

Zafireria In reply to primusjim [2007-09-15 15:56:18 +0000 UTC]

Yes, and I don't mean it is a good idea to mix watercolor and acrylic, but I don't know. I only use acrylic colors when I paint.

First I thought it was Dr.House. The similarites are shocking!

But probably I am wrong, righto'?

That's pretty funny, you're the second person on here to say that it looks like House. This illustration predates that show by a good while, but there are definitely similarities. Thanks for dropping me a line.

haha I like this the expresion is grate. I been doing water color latly too but I been inking before I color cus I thought the lines wouldn't be visable with the paint on it otherwise. Did you use any ink or is it all pencil besides the watercolor?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

primusjim In reply to DigestDemons [2007-08-17 14:10:19 +0000 UTC]

Actually, I think on this piece I used a purple ultra fine Sharpie for the line art. No idea why. But, it apparently worked.

Great style, he's practically the personification of the horrible morning feeling. The only thing that annoys me about this piece is the mouth, it just feel like it fits with the rest of the picture to me. Good choice of lighting and colours, it all fits together to create an excellent piece!

I can understand where you are coming from with the comment about the mouth. I just liked for that tiny hint of a smile appearing as the coffee approaches his mouth. Thanks for checking it out.

Yeah, I can see why you'd go for that. I'd just like to apologise for my appalling grammar there, I don't quite know where my brain was when I wrote that comment... I'm glad you seem to have got what I was attempting to say...

Oh, I think I know who you're talking about now. I've never seen the show, but I think I've seen commercials. Sorry, but my tv watching is basically every Red Sox game and Mythbusters.

lol fair enough, but if you ever consider watching it, it is good well, actually if you ever do want to watch it, watch the first 2 seasons...they're much better than the later ones.

It seemed pretty good, and I've been a Jason Lee fan since Mallrats, but now that he's been in underdog and alvin and the chipmunks... it's just sad.
