Description Hey all! I just moved about a week ago, so I haven't been doing much lately. In the moving process I found a bunch of color pencils I hadn't used in years, and my roommate had a box full too. Decided to test them out.

So, this is the first time in about, uh, 4 (?) years working with color pencils. It's fun to have something *physical* to work with but I really miss the Ctrl+Z (undo!) function of photoshop hahaha. When I make a mistake, I mentally do Ctrl+Z, then feel embarrassed. Messy, too. My hand is tired from pressing down on the paper (to get rid of the annoying white spots).

I wanted to draw Reno, but I love Vincent's long dark hair.

I really love the use of the warm colors in the picture.
I usually see Vincent drawn with many cool colors, so this is a very nice change.
Fantastic!

Wow, for not working with coloured pencil for four years, you've still got the touch, I'd say. I think anyone who's worked digitally for any extended period of time does the mental CTRL+z thing... I know I do. <_< Anyway - great job.

Oh, yes, I hate the little white spec things, too. (Which is why I prefer marker.... but...) Prismacolors are good for getting rid of them, becuase of the colourless blender, which most other brands don't have. Prismacolors, however, are wax-based, and act a lot like crayons, sometimes, from what I've found... You make them really work, though! Awesome!

Yeah I learned how to avoid losing a welldrawn picture to a coloring mistake I have to trace another copy of my pictures and just color the copy insead of the original so I don't screw them over with my horrible coloring.
Great job drawing vincent. He is my secret imaginary boyfriend.
I love this picture. YTou did a greast job on his hair and the coloring is great. The white spts are a killer to get rid of but you did a great job.

SammaCo [2007-04-08 05:25:30 +0000 UTC]

what kind of pencils did you use?
cause I swear to god if they were crayola I'm gonna die cause I've had no success with that brand at all

white spots are so annoying ToT I understand your pain. (it's why alot of my pics look like they were done in markers or paints)

rubyd In reply to SammaCo [2007-04-08 07:04:49 +0000 UTC]

I used prismacolors for this. Crayola I can get the same effect, but it takes a lot of work with the colorless blender pencil to get rid of the dots. x_X

SammaCo In reply to rubyd [2007-04-09 02:44:24 +0000 UTC]

I was thinking it might be prismas
they have much smoother blending abilities without need of much help
ah, the pain of art. carpal tunnel. @_@
