    Sunset got a reaction from Raskolnikov in Owl Eyes   
    This was just an exercise in making a slightly 3D slightly transparent disc, discovering more about the FX, moving layers around (sometimes they become sublayers, I seem to have difficulty when reordering layers with the trackpad, but easier with the Intuos; I suspect it's as much a 'me and my Mac' thing as any other reason, at the moment), and lots of different ways of using the pencil and the brushes. But I do like to come up with a finished object, so here is Owl Eyes :)

    Sunset got a reaction from GRScott in Sunset at Formby   
    I'm pleased with this, not because it's perfect, but because I've achieved it. It's loosely based on a photograph I took at Formby Beach on 21st June this year, I'd always wanted to see the sun set on the longest day and it was well worth the trek. I've used rectangles with linear fills and conical fills for the background (one on top of the other) and a solid dark red rectangle for the foreground, then built up the picture with lots and lots of brushes. My next step might be to create some texture styles - but not tonight :)

    Guess who asked for a Bamboo tablet for his birthday: and ended up getting some stick instead. He's just gonna have to grin and bear it :lol: The words pandering to his affections, don't seem appropriate today.
     
    I like his orange textured hat and the robe: reminds me of the late astronomer/broadcaster Patrick Moore...go on give him a monocle too.

    Thanks guys!  I am glad to see you guys are enjoying this one as much as I am. Sunset brought up a good point in in another thread. It is nice to see some pixel based brush work mixed in with the vectors based stuff. So this one for you Sunset . :) I made a Custom made brush for the hat and robe.

    Perfection is a wonderful thing if you are in possession of a 36 hour day :) I like this guy and the background, I would like to be as proficient, too, (cue the 36 hour day). I've had a look at the download, I'm going to find that very helpful.

    So  tonights  late night doodle is dedicated to  the special lady in my life... Ok maybe this was an excuse to play with creating my own custom brushes. I am building a nice little collection of brushes. So tonight was about brushes and mixing up some vectors with some pixels all in one image. You work in this application long enough you start jumping between the pixel and Draw Persona and you dont even think twice.
     
    I love to know what everyone interpretation of the story is in this image.
     
     
    (Squirrel) ohh did I mention I say Big Hero 6 the movie  today? Go see it !!! It is  worth every bit of the coin.
     
     
    Anyway enjoy.

    Sunset got a reaction from Kathrin in A new dragon   
    I like the original dragon in its greens and yellows, the shading is nice as it gives it a nice gentle 3d effect, especially on his arms. I think you will refine your shadows and shading as you work and it's important that you keep your own style whilst learning all these new techniques.  :)

    Thanks to everyone that helped and gave pointers on how to use the gradient.  It was very helpful.
     
    Here's my new illustration.  I've actually been going back and forth between AD and Illustrator and so far, I'm liking AD better when it comes to using path/curves.
