Description

This is the second part of an art trade with MadamMeatball

This school girl character belongs to MadamMeatball


I probably spent way too much time working on this one, but at least I got to apply some of my perspective practice in an actual drawing xD I guess I could consider this to be my third background study in a way ~ let’s say 2.5! The coloring and lighting were interesting aspects to play around with ~ I hope it looks good and balanced  


Thanks for doing a trade with me MadamMeatball! I had a lot of fun drawing your character ~ Best Wishes!! 

She also drew my mascot and Lukka for her side of the trade! Check them out when you have the chance; she has some awesome art!

Wow nice work! It indeed feels 'refreshing' to see you draw something new while still keeping your consistent artstyle ^^

Thanks Drei! It's nice being experimental with my trades and commission work ^^ I think it helps keep my gallery fresh and exciting! Also the additional background practice doesn't hurt either xD

Really good perspective work in this one.   Must be during lunch break or somewhere at night. Also, MadamMeatball  did well on her end of the trade as well.

Thanks Sketchman! It's my first attempt at a perspective drawing in months (outside of my sketchbook anyways) so I'm happy to see how it turned out And I agree, MadamMeatball did a fantastic job on her half! She's got an awesome style!

You're welcome. 😊 Getting perspective to look right can be a real challenge especially when you want it to look right with characters and all that. I use to struggle with it a lot but now it seems I have it down pretty well, I think?

Wow, lineless art has a special place in my heart. I love the simplicity in this, yet it's very complex. You got amazing background skills.

QuartzStash In reply to Snailors [2019-01-22 00:48:19 +0000 UTC]

Hiya Snailors! Thanks so much for those kind words ~ I've grown very fond of making lineless drawings like this I just love how well the shapes stand out ~ and it's fun experimenting with the lighting and effects on top of the clean drawings ^^
I'm glad you like the piece and I'm happy to see my background practice is paying off

Snailors In reply to QuartzStash [2019-01-22 01:54:24 +0000 UTC]

No problem! I've tried lineless art before, but it didn't work for me. Right, practice does pay off even though sometimes I don't feel like drawing backgrounds or doing much of anything complicated. It still helps to at least do something. I hope to see more improvement from everyone this year, including myself.

QuartzStash In reply to CrimsongLegendiery [2019-01-22 00:40:05 +0000 UTC]

Thanks Crimson! I had a lot of fun with this one ^^ A lot of it was applying the skills I learned through my previous background studies and some daily perspective practice I was doing on the side ~ I'm very happy with how it turned out! It was also nice experimenting with the lighting and coloring now that I have more of a handle on how that stuff works xD It also helps that MadamMeatball's character was just fun to draw ~ Thank you for your detailed feedback! It really helps my ability to assess my own work

Ooo this looks nice!! I like how you did the background ~ It is simple but there is a lot of detail (that doesn't make sense xD) but it fits in with the character really well!
The perspective and background are fun too <3
Amazing work!

QuartzStash In reply to veganviolinist [2019-01-21 05:42:54 +0000 UTC]

Yeah a lot of it was rendering and lighting once I got the base shapes and perspective down, I still love how these vector based drawings look!  
Thank you for all the compliments Papaya! I really appreciate the kind feedback and support   It pushes me to do my best on every drawing I do! ^^

Haha you're very welcome!! ^^
I had a lot of fun trying to think of a scene for her, since you basically told me to do whatever I felt like xD Plus it's good background practice ^^
She's such an adorable character and it was a pleasure drawing her, I'm so happy you like the final result! Thanks for trading with me ~ Best Wishes!!

I like the composition of this drawing,
your work looks like it is lineless o v o
I like the warm light you included in this drawing, it looks like a warm sunset.

QuartzStash In reply to Meow-Vortex [2019-01-21 04:16:33 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much for the kind words, Meow! ^^ 
The drawing is mostly made up of vector shapes which gives it that lineless aesthetic ~ I just love how clean it looks. 
Lighting and value was definitely a focus with this one. I wanted to to attempt mixing different colored light sources with the cool light from the phone and vending machine and the warm light coming from outside. I think it adds a nice dynamic to the piece overall I'm glad you enjoyed my composition and lighting decisions! It makes me feel like I'm making good progress with these backgrounds
