Description Just felt like submitting a preview of a piece I'm working on at the moment - should have it finished soon enough This is actually a rather small piece of a much larger picture Haha, can't think of anything else to say right now, so this is one of my shortest artist's comments

Done on one layer in GIMP with intuos 3 tablet

Thankyou very much ^^ I actually find them one of the easiest and fastest parts of a picture, but I tend to find odd parts such as tails and ears difficult

Rofl weird. I'll have to study your stuff and figure out how you accomplish eyes. Lol. I'm usually pretty hit and miss with em.

Indeed it is, I've never understood it
As for my technique, there's really nothing to it - just some little strokes and a bit of shading

Yeah, I never really know how I draw things. They just sort of... happen on the screen
In my recent piece which I haven't finished yet, I originally intended to have a simple, gradient sky. I've ended up with a sunset and clouds with perspective and bits of light shining through. Damn it, why do I do that? -shot-

Roflmao. That's happened to me on some requests where it was suppose to be just a simple character. Next thing I know Ive spent 5 hours painting it.

Zozanne In reply to zephyrwolfen [2010-08-30 13:22:08 +0000 UTC]

How did you know I loooove werewolves? ^^

zephyrwolfen In reply to Zozanne [2010-08-30 14:21:27 +0000 UTC]

That would be cool too - I was thinking of an undead werewolf in shackles
And I guessed from your style that you might like them, so I thought we could do something we both like

Err ... wow?
I really do love the way you draw eyes ...
*is speachless*
How do you know where all these shadings have to be ... and how lage is the image you use?
Man, that's so cool!

zephyrwolfen In reply to EldurDraugiel [2010-08-17 11:38:00 +0000 UTC]

Haha, thankyou!
Thanks so much - and as for the shading, it's all improvised without references, I just sort of make it up as I go along This isn't particularly big - the eye is shown full-size here on dA (the rest of the picture is about 4500 wide and 2500 high )
And that really means so much to me!

Oh, it's bigger than mine are normally ...
Wow, okay, I'll try to get as good at drawing eyes as you are.
You are very very welcome!

And aww, thankyou!

Holy smokes! This is the epicest eye evar!

I can't believe you did this in gimp on one layer, it must have been a lot of work. I can't do digital for shit, mostly because of my genius mousepen 8x6 tablet... oh god, the lag is TERRIBLE... I wasn't much of a digital artist, anyways. You has an intuos 3!? AWESOME.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

zephyrwolfen In reply to Kyranth-Wolfen [2010-08-06 18:22:24 +0000 UTC]

R...r...really? You think so?

I do all of my digital art on one layer in GIMP, or so far at least I'm probably just making things harder for myself since I'm yet to discover the "wonder" of layers Aww, I bet your digital art is good - mine's not exactly great, even with the tablet And the intuos 3 isn't actually THAT amazing - the lag is freaking awful, and since I got it second-hand it's a bit scratched I'd love to see some of your digital art though, I bet it would be great Thanks for the fave btw

Kyranth-Wolfen In reply to zephyrwolfen [2010-08-08 16:36:44 +0000 UTC]

Haha, those faces just makes me go "awwww" for you.
Yes, of course I think so!

Yeah, I can't imagine working without layers when I do little digital things. I mostly just sketch in digital when I don't want to waste paper or am busy doing things online. You have lag too? My lag is really bad, I can't color with it because of it. I seriously cannot paint without going veeerrrrrryyyyy sloooowww and waiting for it to respond. My tablet + big brush sizes = no. It's pretty good for sketching though. Hell, I bought it for like $40 bucks on amazon when I was 11 or 12. And I see about the second-hand thing. Who did you get it from that had an Intuos 3?

No prob on the fav!
