Burnseyy Posted July 22, 2008 Author Posted July 22, 2008 I hated tutorials and art lessons on how to draw. I just practised. and what do you mean how do I colour in? Like, what I use, or what technique?
Astor Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 and what do you mean how do I colour in? Like, what I use, or what technique? Well both really - do you do it by hand, or using a computer?
Burnseyy Posted July 22, 2008 Author Posted July 22, 2008 Oooh. That's by hand. I did use Picasa 6 or something, to patch the brightness/contrast up a tad, but that's it. I use water colour pencils, and basically mix a few of the colours together to get certain 'shades'.
Marius Fett Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 You should get Photoshop/GIMP. Makes the computer editiing part MUCH easier.
Burnseyy Posted July 22, 2008 Author Posted July 22, 2008 You should get Photoshop/GIMP. Makes the computer editiing part MUCH easier. I have photoshop, but I haven't used it on any of these pictures, yet. I was going to with the Mira one, buuut... the computers at my other house.

I was going to with the Mira one, buuut... the computers at my other house. Ahhh right. It makes bumping up colour settings and removing mistakes a LOT easier eh? I wish I could draw...
Burnseyy Posted July 22, 2008 Author Posted July 22, 2008 Ahhh right. It makes bumping up colour settings and removing mistakes a LOT easier eh? I wish I could draw... it does. it's a pity I don't always have it on me. And everyone can draw - it's just practise that makes it easier.
Marius Fett Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 it does. it's a pity I don't always have it on me. And everyone can draw - it's just practise that makes it easier. Have you ever SEEN one of my drawings? Absolutely abysmal.. The best I can do is a cartoon man with a peanut shaped head..
Burnseyy Posted July 23, 2008 Author Posted July 23, 2008 Have you ever SEEN one of my drawings? Absolutely abysmal.. The best I can do is a cartoon man with a peanut shaped head.. can't say a lot of my drawings have been perfect, either!
Darth_Yuthura Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Sorry I haven't replied earlier, but the Mira painting was great. I haven't worked with water colored pencils, but I think I should give it a try.
Burnseyy Posted July 23, 2008 Author Posted July 23, 2008 it's a bit of a pain, and I'm only using them because I have nothing else, at the moment. But it's definitely helped me out. Thanks!
Rev7 Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I wish I could draw... I like the colors on Mira. Looks a little hard getting it just right. Good work with it!
Marius Fett Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Methinks Brnseyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy needs to post some tips and tricks.
Quanon Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I think Burnseyy is drooltastic Edit: As in drawing either way its a compliment
Burnseyy Posted July 23, 2008 Author Posted July 23, 2008 Methinks Brnseyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy needs to post some tips and tricks. tips and tricks? sure, why not? Sit indoors for prolonged amounts of time, wishing you had more money because you can't get a job, which will bring you into a passive state where all you can do is write/draw/play KOTOR, and you'll find inspiration and patience hits you! hope that helps lol I think Burnseyy is drooltastic Edit: As in drawing either way its a compliment

HIGH ON PIE 14 Posted August 9, 2008 Posted August 9, 2008 Sorry, I have not got to this sooner Burnseyy! Wow Mira came out great...really looks like her, especially the face. This has prompted get back into drawing, I don´t have much talent, but its fun, and thats the important part. Just don´t expect a "HOP´s Art Thread" or anything. Not the tips everbody was hoping for though eh? You seem like a talented, friendly person Burnseyy...whoever wouldn´t give you a job...they are not worth your time. "drooltastic"? Wheee! - great work here Burnseyy, I´m now really excited for my request. (Don´t rush or anything, just got really excited especially after seeing how well Mira came out.) -HOP
Burnseyy Posted September 6, 2008 Author Posted September 6, 2008 Atton It doesn't look much like him, but it'll pass. It also looks like he's holding the lightsaber awkwardly and standing dead goofy - but that's just to make him look like he's moving in for an attack. Also, I chose NOT to put him in robes, despite having a lightsaber, because seriously - he doesn't look right in them. And his outfit is far better.
JAvatar80 Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 I like ze Atton, Burnseyy. And I agree...Atton just doesn't look good in robes. He and Disciple don't need matching outfits. I do like this Atton...kinda like Star Wars meets Cowboy Bebop.
Burnseyy Posted September 7, 2008 Author Posted September 7, 2008 Thanks a bunch for the compliments, guys. @HOP (if he reads this): Marit is well under way. PS. I used to watch cowboy bebop, before my mum said I was too young to watch it >_> and now I'm old enough... Toonami has vanished!
Darth_Yuthura Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 That is a remarkable piece of work. How long did it take you to draw that? I especially liked the shadow effects. Those are hard to do.
