I think someone said to colour them in then rub them out with a tiny bit of easer but make it pointy. I wanna see some Trad from you!!!

silverglass19 In reply to EvilCheese2 [2007-07-23 13:02:22 +0000 UTC]

I know, I know! I need to do more Trad. Everything I do traditionally somehow always ends up as a sketch for something digital...must stop doing dis...

EvilCheese2 In reply to silverglass19 [2007-07-24 06:00:01 +0000 UTC]

Weeeeell you could do a trad, upload the sketch, then colour in the trad and CG.... that way we get to see the differences between them

Haha. Well I just remember that I too hated dapples with all my heart, then I sorta stumbled on this method when I was playing around...and, well it may not work in all situations, but it's a pretty decent way to make them fast and easy! ha! XD

Absolutely wonderful! I love drawing dappled horses by hand, but on computer I find them so much harder. DX
This was really helpful, I'll try test it out sometime.

Dappling is a total pain by hand (I don't see how people do it)...and I thought it was on the computer, too! You proved me wrong!

The moment I get my tablet, I'm trying all your tutorials out!

Woohoo!! Yeah I have no idea how people do it by hand...each...teeny...tiny...dapple... ! I think not, sir! I think not!

WrathOfNessis In reply to silverglass19 [2007-07-22 15:17:28 +0000 UTC]

See, I cheated. I used a drying blender pen and swirled the crap out of the watercolor pencil to get the effect on my Jigsaw horse reference sheet...and that was hard enough!
