Sendo's Sketchbook

[sendo]

@TheGuraGuraMan - glad you liked it!

Here's Hazel-bun's The Child. I really loved the colors so it would be a crime not to color it. hehe

Still accepting requests maybe 2 or 3. If no requests come in, I'll probably color the linearts.

[Katta]

The Child is sooo cute)
Can you do someone from my project too? Dara, if you prefer to draw girls...

[sendo]

@Katta - thanks! Here's your request Yeah, I do favor girls over men, but I still love drawing them all the same.

So, I think I've done plenty enough. Thank you all for your requests! I learned a lot on poses and coloring from these (And I learned that I should play more often, 'coz I missed out on some of your games -_-). I may open this up again next time but until then, the requests will be closed. Thanks again

[Katta]

Thank you so much! I really like her pose, and how she looks so elegant but still fierce.

[TheGuraGuraMan]

Oh well, ended up coloring my request yesterday, hope you don't mind :

Honestly, I'm quite interested in your inking process, it looks crazily smooth ! How do you manage to get so many line's variations ? Tried yesterday, yet it was far from yours. Do you use a tablet ? The pen tool ? or maybe both ?

[sendo]

@Katta - glad you liked it! Thanks for the request
@TheGuraGuraMan - Nice job and of course I don't mind! A piece of advice I can give you is not to be afraid with using darker colors for shading

And yes, I do use a tablet. This tablet. Yeah, I'm kind of poor so that's the only tablet I can afford and I use Paintool SAI which works really really well with my tablet.

About inking, I just use a hard round brush on 100% opacity and pressure-sensitive size. That's about it. And, CTRL+Z and eraser are your bestfriends

[Hazel-Bun]

Ah thank you so much <3 Really adorable and you matched the coloring style pretty well to boot!

[sendo]

You're welcome and I'm glad you liked it, Hazel-Bun! Yeah, I fell in love with the coloring so I copied it to hell.

[CheeryMoya]

But before that, here's a younger(?) version of CheeryMoya's Dr. James Han aka Jazz Hands. I cannot resist to give him a sax, but I jazz can't get it right, it really sax. XD But seriously, the sax is hard to draw...

Ahhhh omg he's hot thank you! This made my day

[sendo]

So I was browsing around concepart.org and saw their sketchbook threads and I thought that it was pretty cool to do one. So here I am, I'm reformatting this thread to a sketchbook thread thing, mainly posting sketches and studies.

I may still take requests but the requester must agree that I reserve the right to experiment, play around, or otherwise butcher their requested art. Okay, I'm just half kidding :p

To start off, here's some recent color studies and sketches:

[Duskylli]

Those are just sketches? o.o They're really good. I especially like the pose of the first top leftmost guy. While I'm here can I request one of the middle people here? Thanks.

[sendo]

Thank you! Well I still consider these sketches since they're not really polished. I was mainly practicing values and coloring for the people sketches, and color relativity for the landscape thumbnails. And yes I quite like the sitting pose as well. Also, request accepted ^^

[sendo]

Here's your request Duskylli. Went for a simple flat coloring style and tried a sort of fish-eye angle so it's kinda distorted, I couldn't decide which character so I kinda just drew them all (well except Mishka's other personas) Hope you like it! :3 Also, TME was awesome, great job you guyss, looking forward to the next update ^^

[SimonLayton]

*crying because so very pretty art agh ;_______;*

If you're still okay with requests, can you do this character? Feel free to experiment, play around, or butcher him as much as you want, s'long as you have fun.

[sendo]

Thank you SimonLayton! Here's your request. I really liked how the coloring turned out so I polished it a little bit :3 Kinda played with the headset before I settled with the chrome-ish material. I certainly had fun drawing this, hope you like it ^^

Also, I've been practicing drawing 3D things without the aid of 3d programs and here are some decent sketches.
