Re: Hand-drawn Sketches Vs. Sketching Straight into the Comp

I really like to scan images since I get inspiration away from the computer most of the time, so most of my drawings that I work hard on are hand-sketched and then scanned, but last year I had to move away, so I didn't have a scanner, so I had to go around asking my friends to scan images - which wa...

Re: [Laniessa] Art Thread / Feedback, Critique Appreciated!

Thank you! I'm getting a lot less messy in my lineless drawings, thankfully! I added a few strands in, do you think it's enough? 11.png I also realized all the problems with perspective in the drawing, so I've been editing and fiddling around with it all day. This background is going to be the end o...

Re: Doppelganger : Dawn of the Inverted Soul [Guide up]

...Just finished this! I haven't unlocked 1 / 2 / 3 of the final set of endings, but oh well! The game was so intense. I really couldn't sleep last night haha. Um, due to the nature of the game, spoiler tag: Lucia's doppelganger is the scariest thing in the entire game, I swear. After that... uh. Ch...

Re: [Laniessa] Art Thread / Feedback, Critique Appreciated!

@JumpJump & @Jod: Thank you very much! I'm writing something in third-person, with a female as a lead, and the writing is incredibly stiff, which is why I asked! I was a bit busy yesterday, which is why I didn't reply then. I continued drawing the girl! I've got an idea for a background sketched...

Re: Can plain be good? ;-;

It's not really plain! It's more simple, than anything. Plain is boring and simple is uncluttered, as the previous posters said. I can see what you mean by having little contrast, though! I think you're going a bit too saturated with them - especially the whites in the second image! I can see it's p...

Re: [Laniessa] Art Thread / Feedback, Critique Appreciated!

@Endorphin: top-left is a personal favourite style of mine too shhh. Okay! So I went in and added a few darker tones to the pencil-coloured one (since that's the style I usually use to draw) and came with this: 5.png I also tried my hand at a background - oceans have always been really tricky to man...

Re: Recommend some K & J drama

I'm not a huge fan of KDrama, but with all my friends watching them, I guess I know a few! The Invisible Man, a drama from 2006. My mind is foggy with the details, but it made me cry so much. If you don't mind sitcoms (...ultra-long sitcoms), I really enjoyed Unstoppable High Kick. Which made me cry...

Re: no-one has to die. [mystery] [PLAY ONLINE NOW]

Oh, wow, what a charming game! The simplicity, the direct way of writing was really nice, and I liked the idea of text boxes. The art was fitting - but I can't sing enough praises for the music. Perfect mood making. I was actually feeling quite scared while I had to make the choices. The gameplay wa...

Re: [Laniessa] Art Thread / Feedback, Critique Appreciated!

@SundownKid: Oh, I get what you mean now! (Basically, skin should look softer and more round, and certain surfaces should be less jarring.) I'll keep that in mind the next time I paint! True, with the 'flat' feeling. I think I'll experiment with laying down a few more gradients before I shade the ha...

Re: [Laniessa] Art Thread / Feedback, Critique Appreciated!

Oh, wow! Okay, time to start replying. @SundownKid: Well, the aim is to refine my skill enough to use this style and not make it look harsh. (I'm really in love with shilin's art, so that's somewhat what I aspire to - but I still want it to be a bit unique.) Quick question, by "that kind of art...

Re: Delta m.m's personal art thread (very creative,huh?)

Ooh, the softer yellow and the darker red looks much better than before! (I meant use the lines as a guideline, rather than an actual law, so in that regard, it's fine!) The dress looks better, although one thing of the previous image was slightly better - the contrast of the shadows in the hair and...

Re: [Laniessa] Art Thread / Feedback, Critique Appreciated!

@SundownKid: Hmm, thanks! I'll be honest, though; I like the rough paint style I have. I'm still developing my style, but I do want to keep it in the direction of being able to see changes in colour, seeing strokes and such. (I do use gradients and airbrushes, but I brush over them to try and lose t...

Re: Delta m.m's personal art thread (very creative,huh?)

The artist of the lineart moved to ririkuto at deviantart (and draws the most adorable art ever), so. I have to agree - the colours are really painful to look at. They're all super-bright and saturated. Tone them down a fair bit. For shading, what I can think of now is to use the lines to your advan...

@Itwasneveradream: Thank you! My fundamentals are really shaky, unfortunately, but I'm always staring at anatomy tutorials! (All I need to do is actually draw some figures...!) The more smooth / clean style never suited me, to be honest! Whenever I tried to cell shade something, I would always place...

Laniessa Art Thread

Reopening my art thread after keeping it dead for so long, haha. I'm hoping this will help to motivate me back into drawing more frequently. Old art is all in the posts before, new art starts from page 2 ! Deviantart and tumblr links are in my profile, for those interested. I post progress and doodl...
