Marker Study

Well lets get to business.

Here are some drawings I did back in June with Primacolor. I drew most of them with no pencil base.. just straight Prismacolor.. had no idea what I was doing. Suffice to say I didn't touch the markers for a while after that. I thought these came out decent at the time.. but looking back... yeah, these are pretty bad.



Fast forward to this month and I picked up the markers again, only this time I switch to Copic markers. I do have to  say, I like the tints/tone with Copic better. Also... they sort of blend better too.. anyways I got the warm gray colors since my Prisma markers were already cool grays.

I think these turned out well.. well maybe not the first few.. lol. I tried to focus on the faces a lot more this time, because I think it's the one part that makes or breaks a drawing.

Old--->New

Still learning how to blend the markers.. I think they look better now. I got bored and played with my Shepard towards the end there. So yeah, I'll probably do more Copic drawings from here on.

Noble Six WIP

Oooh yeeeeaaaaaaaarrr..... Since I took my sweet time on the WIP might as well blog about it. I think in total I probably spent about 30hrs on this. I used the online bungie model of my Noble as reference... oh yeah, original size is 3300x4500 pixel.

First up, a base sketch. I do this for all of my drawing.
Then some rough lines.
... onto the base of the BG.
Now.. adding color.
Adding tints and tone, refining the BG.
Adding the highlights and all that jazz.
AND  THEN.. the final out come. DA link is HERE.
Well.. I hope that was entertaining..... either you like it or not..... I'm voting for Sweet.
