what ever it is it looks cool :afro:

i guess something is better than nothing ...its suposed to be a free sketch ie: just sketch anything start with a shape and move on ..just to try out something ... in this case it was my wacoms presure sensitivity and cross hatching ...
you shouldnt set a goal tho that will restrict you ...

ive started coloring this one

Let me ask you how old you are because I hate to burst your bubble of greatness and how you think these are good but c'mon!!

[Hazar]

I didn't think they were that bad.

Fleabaine stop attacking people or you're gonna get another warning for it. That would put you at 8 with one more warning perma-banning you..

And getting back on topic, I think that's great :)

Not too fond of the people though :P

fleabaine ...if im not focusing on a particular subject and just moving form shape to shape then i dont see how i could make it relaistic ...its not suposed to be realistic its suposed to be abstract im sorry if it looks like the scribligs of a 6yr old but i was just testing my wacom out and i thot what i came up with was sorta cool .....

looks fine to me, and doodling like that without a plan and seeing what happens is often how a lot of art is done. Post more, its also a great way to practice with the tablet as you know.

tis good and interesting like a said on msn :P

Colour it!

i did what u kinda did but on paper i drew one line and ended up with a page of eyes :P it was fun

[Druckles]

Wow! That's quite... erm.. random... but looks cool :D. And very artistic

I really like the coloured one too

[mindless_moder]

thanks a lot TDE doing something like this ..keeping ur focus on ur lines rather than on the shapes helps as a workout before drawing ...
well atleast me ... i find that i cant get the curve i want to go the right way the first time .....always have to undo it and start over ....but if you free sketch you get ur mind into it ...

edit: joims scan it and post it here ..... feel free to post any free sketches here .

ill post some more serious work later.

edit2: TDE thats some impressive post count u have there

[Fleabaine]

ill post some more serious work later.



Thankyou.
What I wanted to say was you are entitled to your own special art style but it's no Botticelli or Vermeer! Lol.

[crabonhead]

it is totally botticelli. you take that back

cool sketch though, i think i could stare at it for hours.

I prefer the first one without color added.

[Druckles]

Maybe I should wait for it to finish loading before I comment on it :P

Edit: Nah, I still like the coloured one better :D

[mindless_moder]
